Come for the drinks, then stay for the food! Downtown Chico has no shortage of beloved local hangouts, but few are more iconic than Tres Hombres Restaurant & Bar. Open for lunch and dinner, there’s never a bad time to walk over from the CSU Chico campus. Its long bar and frozen margaritas are perennial favorites, and the long list of beer and wine is complimented by a tempting selection of seasonal drinks. Then you can choose your favorites from a menu full of classic Mexican cuisine, from a taco bar to quesadillas, sandwiches, and entrees.
