Post No Bills

600 Ortiz Ave., Sand City (831) 324-4667, postnobills.net

Since the day it opened in 2011, Post No Bills has been a mecca for beer lovers, the go-to spot to discover new suds and have a few drinks with friends. The beer selection is one reason – a wall of refrigerators is stocked with bottles of all kinds, the beers on draft keep in steady rotation – but it’s also the industrial chic vibe: Open and airy, with eye-catching art on every wall, it’s the kind of place where it’s easy to laugh, smile and let go of worldly concerns.
