Walk into Chief's Burgers and Brew on a Sunday and you'll feel like your in downtown Denver; this is definitely Bronco's territory. Show up on a Friday night for dinner and you'll feel like a Solana Beach local. Across from the Solana Beach train station on Cedros (just west of Lomas Santa Fe), the restaurant was actually named for the "SuperChief" train on the Santa Fe line.
Chief's is casual. You eat dinner at picnic tables and can watch one of the 25 televisions tuned to sports. The service is outstanding and the food is served quickly. Chief's has been hailed for having one of the top five burgers in Southern California and I won't refute that claim. The menu is pretty simple and features a different special each night of the week.
This "joint" is extremely family friendly. You'll probably see some of the kids from your children's school there. It's a place where mom doesn't have to cook, dad can swill down a microbrew or two, and the kids feel comfortable.
Chief's has a bar that serves beer and wine. It is a "locals" hangout that closes around 10PM. The topic at the bar is light, mostly sports. It's the type of place where you come in a stranger and walk out a local.
The outside patio is small and has a charming firepit. Dress is casual; flip flops are the preferred footwear. It is only prohibitively crowded during race season (mid July to early September) or if the Denver Broncos are playing.This was posted on www.sandyblogger.com
