Atmosphere is causal, a bit sparse, service friendly but somewhat lacking, mixed drinks could use more 'spirit'. Food is good, portions are good. Had the house margarita, beet salad, and the sausage sandwich. Overall no complaints except for maybe the weak margarita.

Great food against a subtle evening setting and good lighting with great friendly service. Highly recommend this establishment. Ordered the ribeye special menu with the steak cooked medium rare. Vegetables were on point... I was not disappointed.

We were looking for a place with a good craft beer selection and good food. We found delicious food here. We started with the fried zucchini which were hot and had a nice crunchy breading and came with a delicious homemade ranch. I had the chicken Alfredo which was creamy and garlicky. I only wish that they would do fresh parmesan at the table. My friend was intrigued by the salmon sandwich and really enjoyed it. They liked the different sauces and flaws. Overall a really nice dinner. Our waiter was attentive and friendly. Definitely felt like the place could have used another waiter as our waiter appeared to be handling all the tables.

During our return trip from Paso Robles, we decided to stop for lunch at Cork & Plough. Our group consisted of both adults and children. The restaurant was very accommodating, managing to fulfill various specific requests from our party with considerable patience. The atmosphere of Cork & Plough is slightly different than your typical dinner, and the menu reflects that vibe. We were pleased with the portion sizes and the freshness of the food. While nothing was extraordinarily exceptional, everything was satisfactory. The skirt steak sandwich and the salmon pasta got good feedback from the tea The ravioli serving was quite generous. Overall, Cork & Plough proved to be a delightful choice for a lunch stop.

Very Nice & vibrant place. Stopped in to celebrate co-worker birthday (her friend had previously been to Cork & Plough, to which she highly recommended us to visit). The ambiance is great, and the acoustics are not well cause of others' conversations throughout the place.
Food presentation is awesome, and flavor is good; although for my taste, the seafood risotto needed a touch more flavor. The others with me ordered the Wild Salmon and the Ribeye special; which looked and tasted great from their response.
I will look to visit again & again when I'm in the area.

Philipe and the team in the kitchen gave us a fabulous meal.
We dropped by on a road trip after reading great reviews and we were not disappointed.
Exceptional service, marvellous food & four very satisfied patrons.

Nice stopover between Bay Area and Santa Barbara. We stopped here for a late lunch on our way back from Santa Barbara. We ordered cheese ravioli, chicken sandwich, chicken tarragon penne and curly fries. The food was tasty and portions were large. The restaurant is neat and clean and the service was quick.

I really wanted to love this place since we drive through the city every other weekend for work. It turned out to be a bust. The waitress wasn't as friendly and didn't understand portion size or to guess how many boxes are needed when told 4 were needed (she brought 3).

There were also no signs on the door or anywhere in the restaurant, that they only were taking cash. The waitress upon seating is didn't inform us either. If this was the case I would have at least liked to have seen a sign/ been notified one way. We had cash and we're able to pay in full.

The food was ok. Hit or miss with the it's received. I would say it's return for sure for the amazing zucchini fries, but nothing else. The French onion was too salty, the French dip didn't have any flavor, and the beet salad was just not good.

And only upon leaving did another co-worker asked if wanted a bag for our stuff or not.

Maybe our experience was completely based off of service and I hope that's the case.

I'm not sure if I'd be back, except for those zucchini fries.
