Social Tap

My boyfriend and I love going to social tap in Ventura whenever we're there. The wine Wednesdays are great because all of the bottles are half off. All of the staff is very attentive and the food is very tasty. Also it doesn't take them very long to get things to your table even if they don't have a lot of people serving. Finally the place is really close to the beach and an inn we are considering staying at. The little outdoor seating area is nice too.

Good vibe .. good drinks. But the food was just ok. This is the beef and Cheddar burger which looks a bit better than it tastes. First few bites tasted mostly of the thousand island sauce which they call their “special sauce” . The fries were great. The taco Tuesday carnitas and chicken tacos were bigger than expected and their flavor was good, but unfortunately the yellow corn tortillas fell apart instantly with the weight of all the meat inside. I have to say they once had basically my favorite chicken dish of all time here.. but this was literally years ago and I didn’t see it on the menu now in January 2022

One's mood definitely sets the tone for an evening that follows. We had wanted to enjoy the evening by the beach and we got to do the same at the Social Tap. It was busy and lively. The staff was sweet and prompt enough. While we waited for our server to come another server, who couldn't serve alcohol, asked if we wanted to have water or soda while we waited...that is definitely not very common in restaurants. I had one mezcal Margarita and one classic Margarita...both were decent. We shared a plate of chicken Nachos..which was loaded and very satisfying . For the main course we shared an Ahi Tuna Burger with garlic truffle fries and was it gooood. The Tuna was super fresh, sweet and the burger was put together well with balanced flavors....enjoyed it! Thanks for a great experience.

This is one of my favorite restaurants. I first ate here in 2014 on my wedding night and have been coming here ever since. I live 35+ miles away and we make it a point to eat here as often as possible. Their fish & chips (per my husband) and chicken tenders are absolutely amazing. I tried the tri-tip sandwich tonight and it was delicious. Excellent beer selection. Great service and atmosphere. I have only good things to say about this restaurant. I will definitely go out of my way to try the SD and AZ locations next time I'm in the area(s).

Social tap is a mainstay during our annual Ventura trip. They have a broad menu that accommodates many different food preferences and dietary restrictions. There is a great mix of indoor seating and patio seating. The place is huge so they can always accommodate a crowd. Food is great- love the tacos and sweet potato waffle fries!! Staff is friendly and efficient and food always comes quickly! Highly recommend if you are in the pierpont/Ventura área! Casual neighborhood vibes can’t be best and did i mention it is only a few steps from the beach!!!!
