Los Angeles-Based American Tavern Chain Finney's Crafthouse Unveils First San Diego Location

June 21, 2024

With ten locations dotted around Southern California, Los Angeles-based American tavern chain Finney's Crafthouse has unveiled its first San Diego restaurant.


Founded in Westlake Village, CA, in 2016 by Greg Finefrock (pronounced FinneyFrock), Finney's Crafthouse is a family-owned, modern American gastropub with additional locations in Santa Barbara, Ventura, San Luis Obispo, Porter Ranch, Burbank, Orange and Camarillo. Finefrock has over 25 years of industry experience, previously working in franchise development for Baja Fresh and The Counter Burger Restaurant. With a mission to expand his memorable tavern food concept, Finefrock took over the 6,000 square-foot, two-story building that last housed Davina's Cabo Grill in downtown Oceanside in 2023 for his first San Diego outpost of Finney's Crafthouse. 

The Oceanside location of Finney's Crafthouse is now open, offering a rooftop bar and a ground floor dining area and beer garden. Expect a lengthy menu of elevated, scratch-made tavern fare, including appetizers, salads, pizzas, wings, tacos, sandwiches and burgers. There is also a full bar with cocktails, wine, and a strong devotion to California craft beer and hard seltzer, kombucha and cider.

Finney's Crafthouse is now open daily at 212 Tremont Street in San Diego's North County city of Oceanside. For more information, visit finneyscrafthouse.com and check out the launch menu below.
