Corner Tap

Corner Tap is the Mesa's neighborhood craft beer bar, sitting at Cliff Drive and Meigs Road a few minutes from the beach. More than two dozen taps pour mostly local beer, backed by wine, cocktails, flatbreads, and sliders. The patio is lined with fire pits that make cool coastal evenings comfortable, and TVs cover the big games. The regulars are neighbors who treat the place like an extension of their living room. Live music usually means a singer-songwriter or acoustic duo, with the occasional summer night when a local classic rock band packs the patio. The space is compact and conversational, so polished, familiar songs played at a comfortable volume go over best.
