What People Are Saying About Third Stop

In Short – Inside the bungalow-facade which once housed Locanda Veneta's affordable sister-eatery, this casual bar offers upscale pub fare and beer-minded drinking. Stripping the location of traditional table service, bartenders with white aprons attend a long wood-grain bar, where impressive stouts display selections of more than 30 imported and domestic brews. Robertson fashionistas and Cedars residents shout out their food selections from a revolving menu with choices like brick-oven pizzas, a gnocchi-based mac and cheese, seared ahi and burgers.

Can't stand the owner always chasing tail

by Fabiola

I used to frequent this place a lot with my girlfriends but after a while it became a bit too much. The owner of this place makes this place undesirable, isn’t that pathetic? He is always drunk bragging about what he has or not and is always trying to pick me and my girlfriends up offering us drinks that we don’t want; we can pay for our own, thank you! He tried to kiss my girlfriend, unbelievable! We had to leave.

One day I saw the chef getting into a fight right outside the restaurant with the bartender, talk about drama in that place. I can’t wait for this place to change owners so I can start going again. I live right around the block and it’s sad I can’t have a place to hang in my own neighborhood. The food is great for a bar and the selection of beers is great.

  • Pros: Great pizza, lots of beer selction
  • Cons: Girls, be aware of owner

Drinks good, service not good

by shawnking33

I come here at least twice a month and the service needs improvement. I just don't get a friendly vibe. We always order lots of rounds, tip well but service is always sub par. Other than that this place is a cool spot.

  • Pros: drinks and food
  • Cons: service

Best Gastropub / Beer Babes / Worst Manager Ever - She Should Be Arrested!!!

by ahahn11211

I love third stop!!! Although I am a connoisseur of the barley and hops, I let the beer babes create a path of personal strategic intoxication based on their suggestions. Their pizza is outstanding and the ahi burger is phenomenal. I met the owner once and he was one of the nicest guys I've ever met!

However, their manager Camilla is a total bi#$ch!!! I visit third stop about twice a week and tried to plan my birthday party there. Although my friends are alcoholics and I'm a regular, Camilla would only reserve tables for me with a $35 per person minimum. Considering their beer is beyond reasonable at $6 a glass, each of my friends has to drink 96 ounces of high potency beer! WTF!!! This is not only BS, this is irresponsible!!!

  • Pros: Beer and Babes
  • Cons: Manager and Manager and Manager
