Mess Hall

I love the concept of the entire Liberty Station shopping and eating venue. One highlight is the Mess Hall. The cocktail bar in the Liberty public market. Where else can you sit at a bar, get a craft cocktail, or small batch beer, and bring back food from all different vendors? That is a rhetorical question. Cheers and enjoy. NOM NOM

The reason I am giving it such a low review is that I picked a stout that had a cool bottle... it was $35!!! $35 for a beer!!!! There are no stickers for the price and they opened it before they told me the price. I was so embarrassed and shocked there was nothing I could do but pay and walk away. They also charge a "corking fee" plus ask for tip. That's disgusting

Great spot for large groups, great selection of drinks and food. Here you can buy alcoholic drinks on tap or beers/ciders/wine to go.

Our drinks were great. The ambience was great. The music was a little quiet, but great selections, and the best parts were the maraschino cherries and our bartender Priscilla! Thank you so much!

I never write reviews. But, I have been in the industry for 16 years and I have never had such a bad experience. I came with a huge group to celebrate my brother in laws engagement and unfortunately had to experience one of ur employees who was completely drunk or honestly maybe high (on what? Idk! but she was out of control). It started when she creepily walked in the middle of our group, standing there with out speaking to anyone for a good amount of time, got close to my kid made a comment about kids being her silver lining or something and walked away. Which is fine to say honestly, but standing in the middle of our group not speaking for a good amount of time while staring at my kid, was very weird.She was giving free drinks to multiple people saying it was last call (it was 5:30-6:00).Every time we came to the bar she was gone. Then when I came to order and she shockingly was around she was serving someone, yelling at them to "order! Just order your drink" I believe he was a fellow employee who worked in the shops?Either way. If Megan is the manager, for ur business you should re-evaluate her position. Please, honestly look at the cameras. I don't know the names of the girls working but they are superhero's. The incredible, and amazingly patient woman in the pink crop top was handling everyone ALONE! It's the night before thanksgiving and you guys are a business working by the airport. Manger or not Megan is out of control. And if I were you guys I would let her go immediately. There is excuse for her behavior.

Misleading. They ask if you want your drink for here, if you say yes, you pay $1.50 extra, which for a $3.80 drink is stupid. Then they give you attitude about it when you question them on it because they know it's dumb and has no reasoning behind it. I can literally crack my own drink, I don't need to pay you $1.50 to do so for me. Icing on top was that there was a giant piece of fuzz stuck to a piece of ice. Gross. Never coming back.

Located right inside liberty market, they have a good variety of alcoholic drinks to go or to consume there, there are a few tables. Good ambiance with a lot of people go grab some food and come eat here while they enjoy some drinks.

I grabbed a drink here last night with a friend of mine before we headed to a concert. It's located inside Liberty Public Market. On Saturdays and Sundays they have $6 Mimosas from 9am-11am I believe. I ordered a Market Sunrise $13 which has rum, pineapple, orange, orgeat, and housemade grenadine. It tasted just alright. I usually don't drink alcohol too often for a number of reasons, one being that once I break the seal I'll have to go to the bathroom every 5 minutes haha. Overall, this place is okay. Not a bad place to grab a drink when you're in Liberty Public Market.

The first stop we made when I was in town last was Mess Hall, reason being, it's got something for everyone. I'm a big kombucha beer drinker but I can also go for a sour, IPA, glass of Cab or silver tequila. My friends are a little more specific though and only drink beer or only drink wine, so Mess Hall was the perfect place to not only all get what we liked, but also try many varieties/local brands of our own individual favorite styles of alcohol. They also host themed nights, have good bar snacks (i.e. San Diego Snack Co Mexican Chocolate Pretzels), TVs all around to play "the game," and a wide variety of restaurant booth options throughout the rest of the public market style building where you can order and bring your food to the hall to eat all together with your group. The theme here is variety and tons of quality options at that. There's tons of free parking all around the building complex, though I'd recommend Ubering/Lyfting if you don't have a DD because you're going to want to try all the drinks. My favorite options here were the Juneshine kombucha beers, specifically the Midnight Painkiller flavor, though I've tried almost all of them and don't hate any of them. They also have Boochcraft kombucha beers and two other brands i'd never heard of before. The cider selection is larger than I'd ever seen and their beers on tap include a huge variety of local options you'll love. My friends and I all got a different beer, tried each others and had not complaints, though the orange flavored Modern Times was definitely the group favorite. Checkout Mess Hall! It's a group group setting, first date spot, place to watch the game, and so on. This area has so much fun stuff to see and do, If you're a tourist I'd recommend giving yourself time to explore all the shops and food and beverage options. Not insanely kid friendly but not the worst spot to take them either; it can just get pretty loud in Mess Hall. If you're planning your visit ahead of time, check out their social media for cool upcoming events!

This appears to be the only place to buy beer and spirits in the Liberty Food Market. They do have a very large selection of draft beer and beer and wine to go. The prices are ok but I don't like that they tacked on a 4% covid fee. I know many of these places are hurting but I would rather they just raise their prices.
