The cobalt burger (well done) with the blue cheese was delicious! Rather quit atmosphere this Sunday. (No live band). Maybe next time

A large group of us stopped here for lunch. They were aware we were coming. This was my first time here. The food came out in a decent time, and service was to be expected with a large group of 30 of us. We did arrive in two separate groups spaced out about 20 minutes. It was a good spot to stop, and the food was decent. Many have complained about the cost. It seems high for what you get, but it is the same at all restaurants. Costs have gone up everywhere. Sorry we forgot to get pics of the food, we were hungry--lots of parking around the back. There is a large pothole in the front parking lot.

The food was amazing! Very different than it used to be here. Definite upgrade. We had fish tacos, Brussels sprouts, a burger and clam chowder and it was all amazing! You have to try the Brussels sprouts. Also got to listen to live bluegrass while eating.

Stopped by Davenport Roadhouse Saturday afternoon. We were at Bean Hollow flying kites and needed some lunch. It was breezy and foggy, but the patio was open and there was a roaring fire in the large fireplace. It was warm and cozy, but also sunny and summery. As only coastal CA can be. There was a singer/guitarist, who played and sang oldies the entire time we were there. And at one point a woman came up (seemingly a patron), and sang along. The singer took this in stride and soon they sang together a little. The whole thing seemed organic. We ordered a pizza (half sausage/half pepperoni), a beet salad, and a cobalt burger. All were very good. The iced tea came with refills, so a bonus! It was expensive, but no more than I expected to pay in a coastal restaurant. Loved the small area with merchandise, too.

I frequent Davenport Roadhouse for their taco Tuesday! $5 gets you an order of two street tacos. Choices are: veggie, grilled cod, grilled chicken, or carnitas. I think they're all super tasty! The cod always tastes fresh and it's never dry. They do a great job with their pickled cabbage. I haven't tried that many other things from the menu, but I do love their deep fried pickle appetizer. Yum! I hope to come for a few of their other nightly specials. They have a $5 street burger deal, and a $5 street pizza night. Servers have always been attentive and very friendly. There is usually live music!

We had a great time. Our food was good (make sure to order the Cobb salad if you Iike that - one of the best we've had!). There was live music playing which was also a nice touch. This place is located right on the pacific coast highway 10 miles north of Santa Cruz so if you are driving it, stop in for a good experience.
