About

The Regal Seagull on North Coast Highway 101 in Encinitas's Leucadia pairs a rotating craft beer draft list with an artisan sausage kitchen that grinds five house varieties: jalapeño-cheddar kielbasa, spicy Italian chicken, Moroccan lamb, classic German pork bratwurst, and vegetarian Mexican chipotle. The beer program stocks hard-to-find releases alongside mainstays — Pliny the Elder among the recurring pours — and the sausage-and-beer pairing concept occupies a distinct lane from the raw-fish focus at nearby Hooked on Sushi on the same Leucadia corridor. Beyond sausages, the kitchen turns out Philly cheesesteaks with char-grilled chicken or steak, house-ground burgers, buffalo wings with Old Bay seasoning, and fried mac bites. Trivia nights, sports broadcasts on multiple screens, and a dog-welcoming policy that extends indoors and onto the patio make the bar a gathering point for the Leucadia 101 community. The craft beverage scene on this stretch of the 101 also includes Caves Wine Bar & Shop, which adds a curated wine-flight option to the corridor's beer-forward identity. The kitchen operates a health-department score of 99 out of 100 and grills all sausages to order on a flat-top with house-made mustard varieties served alongside fresh-cut tots and kennebec fries.
