Pangaea Bier Cafe - Sacramento

Best burgers in Sacramento. It is juicy and delicate with smoked meat taste. Very happy to try this restaurant. I think it was $18 so a little pricy, but it's good. Garlic frits also savory and crispy. I have her wheat beer called Allagash, which is amazing with the burger.

Amazing beer selection, very good food. Not a place for dinner but for small bites, it's perfect. There's more seating than it seems! Great service!

The fried chicken sandwich really was THE BEST IN SACRAMENTO! Fresh and delicious! They have a great beer selection… can’t wait to come back!

The burger and chicken sandwich was pretty good! Service was excellent and quick. Seating available inside and out. The beer selection was also a great!

Out of all the amazing restaurants/brewpubs in the Sacramento area, Pangaea Bier Cafe has always been consistently good ever since they opened at this very popular Curtis Park hotspot dating back to 2008. And in that stretch of time, they have had a cult following of fans that rave about their Pangaea Burger being the #1 burger in all of Sacramento. But they 're so much more than that as they carry a full-on menu including sandwiches, nachos, wings, tacos, and salads. And of course lots of local brews on tap, wine, and even coffee. Located directly on Franklin Blvd. and adjacent to 3rd Ave. in the Curtis Park neighborhood of Sacramento, this place is directly across the street from the iconic Gunther 's Ice Cream parlor. Parking can be tricky but since you 're more or less surrounded by lots of residential areas, you shouldn 't have too much of a problem finding a spot to park. Maybe on a warm summer night where crowds in the dozens flock to ice cream could be a bit of an issue. Even though I 've been here several times in the past, my most recent visit was on the afternoon of Sunday 10/17/2021 at around 2:30pm. Since the weather was still warm enough to dine outside, my friend and I decided to enjoy lunch on their sizable outdoor patio. The inside itself does offer ample seating as well as a small stage area when they offer live music. Do keep in mind that they are NOT open for business on Monday and Tuesday just in case you 're wondering. As far as my lunch, I ended up going with their Sunday Special which was their BBQ Pulled Pork Sandwich and a beer for the amazing low price of only $11.99 tax. I paired this sandwich up with an iced cold Cosmic Rays Modern Times IPA beer and an ice water. My friend ordered their Buffalo Hot Wings with sides of Blue Cheese Ranch sauce. We received a number, sat outside, and both our meals arrived within 10 minutes. Overall, my pulled pork sandwich was hearty, messy, and delicious. The heaping portion of coleslaw made it bigger than it actually was while the crisp pickles gave it a nice balance. The pork was seasoned to perfection while the sauce had that hint of sweet and spice packed into one. I did try one of my friends hot wings and these too had the perfect coating of sauce with a generous amount of meat on the wing itself. Oh, and my beer was excellent as Cosmic Rays always puts out a great tasting IPA. All in all, Pangaea Bier Cafe is an excellent restaurant/brewpub/coffee shop/live music venue packed into one. It is prime location in the heart of Sacramento with a nice diverse crowd here. When you factor in the location, eclectic ambiance, ideal indoor/outdoor seating, food portions quality, top notch customer service, and decent prices, this place is 5-star worthy.
