7 Mile House Sports Bar & Grill

"A historic pub in Brisbane known for its diverse menu that includes Filipino cuisine."

"Located on the edge of San Francisco in Brisbane, 7 Mile House is a historical landmark serving a unique mix of Italian and Filipino favorites — and an excellent stop for locals to watch practically any San Francisco sports game they desire. But among the hits is its selection of chicken wings. The Buffalo option is a given, but the barbecue and sweet chile garlic wings are also favorites." - Dianne de Guzman, Paolo Bicchieri, Eater Staff

"7 Mile House is technically just south of San Francisco in Brisbane — it’s an old roadhouse at the seven-mile marker from the heart of the city. Regardless, it’s a classic in its own right, and beyond live music, American and Filipino food, and lots of drinks, the restaurant has a very serious affinity for dogs. See the dog menu and “yappy hour” with snacks for little Bummer and Lazarus, plus “dog beer” — that’s actually just water with some beef juice in it, but they don’t seem to know the difference." - Dianne de Guzman, Paolo Bicchieri

"Bay Area ube fanatics and Halloween enthusiasts rejoice: an annual baking competition returns to one of the Bay’s oldest restaurants this weekend. That’s thanks to 7 Mile House’s owner Vanessa Garcia, the eighth owner of the Brisbane shop and restaurant that was built way back in 1889 (before that, it was a toll gate). Garcia is proud of her Filipino heritage, so when she started the Ube BakeOff in 2019, it was as a way to celebrate October’s Filipino Heritage Month. Now the contest is in its third year, running from October 12 to 17, with customers flocking to the historic restaurant to sample ube treats." - Paolo Bicchieri

"7 Mile House owner Vanessa Garcia agrees being gifted a hat is an honor, acknowledging the selflessness of giving away something so important to the former doormen." - Dianne de Guzman
