Slappy’s Chowder House

“ 10/10 amazing food! So glad we found Slappys chowder house and it will be the place we go to when visiting Pismo. We ordered the Santa Maria Burrito and Tri- tip sandwich. Both were great choices. They also had great customer service! ”

“ A Little hole in the wall type of restaurant, but right by the beach with outdoor seating. The people working the ordering are also the cooks. Be patient when you are there, it'll be worth it. My family and I went offroading in the dunes one day and hung out on the beach another. Both fays we ended up grabbing dinner from slappys. Portion of food was more than enough. We ordered the tri tip sandwich, fish n chips, shrimp n chips and clam chowder. First day we ordered and ate on the beach in the back of our gladiator. Second day we ate on the beach again, but inside the gladiator while I aired up our tires. Did not get a picture of tri tip sandwich. Was too good to stop for a picture. Smoked tri tip, you can taste the smokiness. We also ordered a side of onion rings, all were very good. There were much more that we wanted to try. It'll have to wait til our next trip. Our stomachs were happy with slappys. ”

“ Honestly didn't expect much from this place. Got the chicken tenders and fries. The chicken tenders were absolutely perfect. They were fresh and juicy and tasted great. My friend got a corndog for 8 bucks and at first it looked like a rip off but when we got them they werent your average corn dogs. These things were pretty much a costco hotdog turned corndog. The only downside to this place was that on the menu the chicken tenders came with curly fries however we only got regular fries. Not too biggy tho. The food was good. ”

“ Was not my first choice, the place across the street was closed the other on hwy. 1 opened later, so here we are...I ordered a chicken strips breakfast burrito. It was huge! Fries nice hot and crispy. Nice lady at the order here window. Outdoor seating area w if needed. I would go again. Did not disappoint. An option of a fresh made green or red salsa would be nice tho ”

“ The website said they were closed but we called and they were open. Paid $20 after tax for their Tri-tip burrito. It was healthy in size. Fed me and my honey bunny. The inside is closed but it was nice to set outdoors while we waited for our food. Right off the beach and a great view of the ocean. All in all it was an ok experience. Sad that they won't be opening the inside area for those cold days to enjoy a bowl of chowder. Wasted space. ”

“ Slap me up for some good chowder anytime I am in Pismo! If you are looking for a nice chowder spot that has easy access to the dunes and off the normal busy parts of Pismo then this is a nice spot. The street outside can get busy with recreational vehicles going in and out constantly but it also adds to for great people watching. Slappys is a great place for breakfast and/or lunch. From breakfast burritos to corn dogs to chowder. All the classics done right. Warms up the foodie soul on the nice chilly Pismo beach. ”

“ If you're by the beach, this is a convenient place for a bite to eat or sweet treat. You order at the window and pick up after. I'd recommend their mac & cheese, loaded fries, breakfast burritos, or ice cream. The tri tip sandwich is primarily meat and bread, with bbq sauce on side. ”

“ Wanted to try Slappys clam chowder and it was decent. I don't think it's better than Splash Cafe. They also only have outside seating. The beach being super close was such a positive addition! Our friends got their fish tacos and a strawberry milkshake. They also liked it! ”
