Zia's Social

Zia's Social delivers that rare combination of upscale atmosphere without the pretension. The sprawling beer garden has become the neighborhood's living room, where families spread out while parents sample from an impressive lineup of local craft brews. The cocktail program punches above its weight class—try the house gin fizz that somehow incorporates rosemary without tasting like you're drinking a Christmas tree.

Weekend afternoons here hit different, with live music creating the perfect soundtrack for long, lazy drinking sessions. The full menu saves you from having to call it quits when hunger strikes—their wood-fired pizzas pair perfectly with practically anything on tap.

Yes, it gets packed during happy hour, but the free parking lot (a miracle in this part of town) makes the journey painless. The staff manages the family-friendly vibe without making childless patrons feel like they've wandered into a Chuck E. Cheese. Come for the drinks, stay for the surprisingly cohesive community feel that makes Zia's more than just another watering hole.
