"The La Jolla spot is the only Draft Republic location open for now but the restaurant is actively broadcasting ballgames from multiple outdoor flatscreens. Daily happy hour specials include $2 off draft beers from 2-6 PM." - Darlene Horn

"Both Draft Republic locations will be running social hour specials all day long for Super Bowl LIV. Catch every touchdown on Draft’s 100-inch projection screen in La Jolla (or one of its 50 flat screen TVs in Carlsbad) and enjoy from menu favorites, including the St. Louis smoked ribs with jalapeño cornbread." - Keri Bridgwater

"With its 100-inch projection screen (plus foosball and ping pong tables for half-time entertainment) the Cohn Restaurant Group’s popular UTC beer palace is a great spot to kick things off for football season. Load up on the 1/2-pound Draft Republic Burger and a pint of local IPA on draft or go big with the 24-ounce Hail Mary Bloody Mary." - Keri Bridgwater

Large sports bar and restaurant with a fantatsic selection of beer on tap. There are many seating areas including outside. Main bar is well laid out and many sized tables to accommodate parties of any size. Food is modern pub fare but fresh and delicious. Great place to watch games or go with s large group. Friendly and helpful staff.

This is one of my new favorite stops in La Jolla. Nice spacious sports bar and the food and service are great. They also have plenty of vegan menu options which is rare for a sports bar. Plus you can replace any burger patty for an impossible burger including the Cali burrito!! 😍👍

We came here after Paragliding for a quick snack before or hike at Torrey Pines. They have a great happy hour menu, entertainment, and BIG beer selection. You craft beer lovers would love happy hour $5!!! This place is modern, roomy, fun, and has free entertainment with 2 Foosball take, full shuffle board, and ping pong table!

Came by for a quick bite while out shopping. Seated promptly, food came out quickly and was delicious. We tried the devil eggs, chicken lollipops, tuna takaki, mac & cheese as well as 2 out of three of the desserts. All were fantastic. Server was polite, attentive and very genuine.

Way worth it! I had the buffalo cauliflower starter (half eaten in my photo), pork sliders and a beer of course. The food was unique, tasty and really good portion size. I never had this type of cauliflower and boy was it good! Spicy hot but not over-the-top and classic buffalo flavor. The side of fries that came with my slider were parmesan and perfect.

Stopped by this place while in la Jolla. Part of the cohn group restaurant. Easy parking with the mall across the street. Cool ambience. The jalapeno devils eggs were ok. The flavor mix was good but it need more mayo for a richer taste. Bbq ribs was good. I had the diablo burger and the meat was red and looked like it was uncooked. Wasnt juicy at all. I would only come back here for drinks and for the ambience. The food was decent but wasnt amazing

i love the environment and the friendly staff, but the food is a bit overpriced and generally too salty for my taste. it’s still a great place to meet up with friends to hang out, grab a beer, and have a relaxing meal. the beer selection does not disappoint, and they are always accommodating of my food order adjustments!

I’ll give Draft Republic 2 stars but there’s not much I like about it as I sit here. Didn’t see any beer for less than $7 on the menu, all being between $7 and $9. The place is loud, not much in the way of acoustics to dampen the noise. Bartender took his time coming over to me at the bar, never cleaned the bar from what looked like the last few patrons, never asked me if I wanted a menu or food. In fact, I never saw anyone cleaning any bar spots. Wow this place is really loud, annoyingly so. I’ll just finish my one beer and leave. Not recommended. Oh, and the sales tax is 12% here, RIDICULOUS!
