I would love to go and give an honest review but it's pretty hard to do when the hours of operation are such a small window. It's like they don't even want to make a profit.The pictures on Google show it to be a 4 or 5 star place. Walking by, it looks like a 4 or 5 star place. It's just too bad they aren't open when people normally want to go have a drink.

Man, this spot is so chill to just hang and talk. Come for a beer, some jalapeño poppers, or just to relax.

This place is a great spot for flatbreads, wings, drinks, and other pub foods. The flatbreads and wings were especially good - my friends and I ordered one pizza each with a few appetizers and it was enough food for all of us. My favorite flatbread was the carne asada with the green sauce. The only thing that was disappointing was the order or jalapeno poppers - you basically get two jalapenos (cut in half) for $9.50. See photos for details. Other than that, the place is a great quick stop.

Hands-down, the dry rub wings are the best chicken wings in Santa Barbara.I hope you have Sergio manning the bar when you visit, he’s the best.GREAT local watering hole.

Great beers, quality cocktails. Small food snack menu, but again quality is excellent.

Best chicken wings in town! Also great pretzels and flatbreads. Clean...lots of TV for sports...outdoor firepits and heaters. Full bar. Cocktails a little weak for the price.

We went with a group, and somehow managed to squeeze around an outdoor picnic table, but it's not a place to go with a group, unless you're willing to sit inside. Inside it was loud with music& people talking, so for a group, it's be hard to hear anyone talk that wasn't next to you. I tried a cocktail with Campari in it, & wasn't a fan, & their selections seemed to have a lot with bitters of some kind. The baby back ribs were very yummy! It's a super popular place, so go early if you have a group. Nice to have the patio heaters nearby.

I give a 5 star rating because I love Corner Tap. It’s a much needed local Mesa tavern, where you can usually run into people you know. It’s got a lively excellent vibe and you can always strike up a chat with other friendly patrons, if you want. I first became hooked on the Corner Tap due to super high quality and interesting foodHaving said all that, the quality of the food has come down some. For example, their formerly outrageously delicious cauliflower dish is now just, meh. I think this has to do mostly with the mix of veggies, and how they are cut.In addition, it would be nice If they could change up the menu a little more, and also introduce new beers to the line up occasionally. However, maybe these issues are only my own, because I go here so much.Lastly, It can often be a challenge to get a server’s attention to order a drink - then it also takes a very long time for the drink to show up. Back on the plus side, though, I’ll say that all of the servers and management there always seem to be very upbeat and eager to help. As we have all experienced these days, that kind of spirit from the food service industry is in short supply.In the final analysis, I do love the Corner Tap, and despite my critiques, it’s still a top notch experience. I wouldn’t have taken the time to write this review if I felt any different.

Great outdoor space. Beers on tap and street parking. Salt n vinegar chips. Cauliflower, chicken sandwich.

Great crew, good food, and a wonderful selection of brews. It is a perfect locals haunt.
