Tap into Downtown Chico

The Allies Pub

A relatively new addition to Downtown Chico, the Allies Pub features distinctive flavors of British Bulldog ales and authentic English Pub Food like pasties & pies. Enjoy music on their patio during weekends or snuggle up next to the fire with a wartm blanket during the winter months. Fido approved and welcomed.

Burgers and Brew

True to its name, Burgers and Brew is cranking out some of the best brews and serving tasty burgers and other crowd pleasers at the corner of 3^rd and Broadway in Downtown Chico. Take a seat on the street-side patio or inside this lively establishment, where you can pick from many beers on tap, including B&B's very own lineup of beers.

Banshee

Known for its laid-back English pub vibe and famous mac and cheese, the Banshee has been awarded the title of "Best Bar" by Chico News & Review readers time and time again, for good reason. Not only does it serve more than 40 beers on tap and in the bottle, the Banshee is also creating one-of-a-kind dishes to accompany its brews, like hot wings smoked in-house for a uniquely delicious flavor.

Madison Bear Garden

The Bear is a Chico icon and has served as local watering hole for Wildcat alumni and beer drinkers of all kinds since 1977. Take a trip back to the college days with the bar's wall-to-wall photo montages of Wildcats from the past, and take part in one of the many weekly events like Trike Races and Bear-e-oke. For the adventurous beer drinker, join the Bear's Mug Club and taste all the brews it has to offer.

Woodstock's

Woodstock's reserves a special place in the hearts of many Chico State grads for those late-night pizza deliveries and the famous Wild Bread dipped in ranch dressing. Known for its weekly events like Tap Take Over and trivia nights, Woodstock's also pours more than 20 beers on tap, including those you can't find anywhere else, and features an ever-changing "craft beer of the month." Make sure to stop by for its daily Happy Hour because "happiness begins with a cold pint at half price at Woodstock's."

B Street Public House

With its stylish interior and lively patio, B Street is making a name for itself as one of the best places in Chico for brews and bites. With some of the most popular beers on tap, and unique finger foods like duck fat French fries, this place stands apart from the pack. With a speakeasy feel and delectable brews, B Street Public House is a must-see.

Parkside Tap House

A fun, family friendly vibe open for lunch and dinner with a huge outdoor (dog friendly) patio big enough for outdoor games including corn hole and giant jenga. Our glass roll up door opens the inside bar to the patio, so you'll never feel like you're missing out on the action.
