Black Sheep Bar & Grill

Great “locals” bar with consistently great food

The Black Sheep Bar & Grill has become my new favorite when you want good food and great cocktails. It’s hidden off of Chorro Street, which is a good thing as it’s not too busy during lunch and the food is great. It’s also a perfect after work place for a cocktail and they make their drinks…shall we say..generously!

The Digs:
Black Sheep Bar & Grill
1117 Chorro Street
San Luis Obispo, CA 93401

The Scoop:
Located next to The Sanctuary Tobacco Shop on Chorro, Black Sheep has a old style bar feeling and when I say that I do not mean a dive bar by any means. It’s warm and welcoming and there is a great patio area in the back for outdoor dining. The food is fantastic and after several visits I have not had anything that wasn’t great. They are known for their mac and cheese, which while I admit isn’t one of my favorite dishes, theirs is very good.

What Rocks:
Everything on the menu. The Guinness burger, tacos, or club sandwich are my favorites. If you want to enjoy a cocktail, almost every mixologist there has their own specialty so ask for it.

What Sucks:
The back patio usually has an abundance of flies which can get annoying.  Also if you want to escape the college bar scene at night, get there before 7 as the younger crown tends to come in after that.

The Moolah:
Prices range between $8.95-$13.95
