Chico's favorite for pizza. Woodstock's has been around forever and has moved to a few different locations. Their current spot in the heart of downtown Chico is their best yet. I'm a fan of the Sriracha-cha-cha pizza.

Head downtown for Mexican Food and award winning margaritas, including some fun flavors like key lime or my personal favorite, avocado. Their fun patio has you out in the middle of it all, with Chico State Campus one block away. It gets busy here too... so plan on it being pretty loud inside at night.

A humble location, but Cocodine has my favorite green curry and I only hear good things about it from friends who like other Thai dishes. Once you're inside, it has nice ambiance, and you'll find it's often less crowded than the downtown restaurants.

You kind of just have to go see what all the hype is about. I stick with simple drinks, but there are plenty of locals who are crazy about their burgers or special shots. Casual, quirky, and worth exploring all the levels so you can see those ceilings and just say you've been to The Bear.
