Reviews
The bartender (Danny) made impeccable cocktails, and had excellent advice on pairings.
Highly recommend the brie plate with a Pinot noir!
Customer service excellent
Starting with the food. Thos location is serviced food wish from the middle eastern restaurant next door that the share an open walkway between the two with.
The American cheeseburger on happy hour deal is great and well priced. The Hummus, though, is the real gem. I had 2 portions of hummus, and I want more. Falafel’s were a rad over cooked but still pretty good.
Pizzookie, whatever that cookienin a pan is was meh.
The service was excellent. Great wait, staff, and they even let us have our own tv to watch the Wnba game during the padres game. So big props to that. Sound was turned off in favor of the padre game, which isn’t unreasonable, but almost no one was there for the padre game.
Atmosphere is the downside I felt. For a press box theme, the design was more modern high class bar than press box themed sports bar. There are a few pictures of great moments in sports but not a cohesive theme. The partnering of a Middle Eastern restaurant, although convenient, doesn’t add to the press box element. A rebranding would help define the experience as what it appears to be in name, and expectations are not what you get.
With a name like press box and sports lounge you expect casual bar featuring all American food and casual drinking immersed in sports. What you get is a decent restaurant with an attached bar, great wine selection, that happens to have some sports tvs and pictures on the wall.
The other downside would be price. It’s decent food but a few dollars of over what it should be. It makes up for it with happy hour specials, but those should really be the regular price, not the discount.
All and all good experience I would go back for that hummus and if I was in the area and needed a bar it’s a good choice.
