45 Best Dive Bars near Anaheim

Phantom Ales Brewery • $
1211 N Las Brisas St, Anaheim

“I came for a short trip to Southern California and stumbled upon this micro brewery thanks to a Lyft driver.

Just like one of the other reviews mentioned- this place is a hidden gem!
When my friend and I pulled up to the outside we weren't sure to expect since it's inside an office plaza.

We almost thought we had the wrong place. Once we were in however we were greeted by a warm atmosphere and found it to be really down to earth and fun. There are big tables and even board games in the back that you can play while sipping on some great beer.

We were helped by Jes (Jessica) and she was awesome! She provided great service, was very down to earth, and she went above and beyond to make sure we had a great experience. She let us try different beers and her fun and engaging personality that added a great flare to the place!

I'd love to come back the next time I'm in the OC area!“

Ruby's Sports Bar Bar •
2822 W Ball Rd, Anaheim

“While I will get personal in this review to a degree, I will also be completely honest. The people you meet at ruby's are a mixed bunch between wonderful and terrible. Though that speaks of the patrons. Among which I have met what might as well be a brother to me, an only child naturally. A father to me, someone raised by a single mother. As well as plenty of friends who care... but also those who'd just take advantage, the good people far outweighed the bad. The ownership is up in the air right now due to a divorce where either potential option has their perks and I'll remain neutral despite saying that the husband's choice in manager needs to learn humility and how to speak to people, an issue many young managers face and must learn in the field when first given a leadership position. As well as the wife's choice could stand to learn when to say no. Regardless though during their personal issue, the staff remains strong and solid. Bartenders who genuinely care enough to personally make sure customers get home safe and sound, as well as give a chance to noble souls amongst the downtrodden, and I speak as someone in love with one and living with one as well.. when alone and broken before, and it was more than one of them, nearly all of them who put in an effort towards helping me through multiple deaths in the family as well as my partner of 10 years leaving me. They are trusting, sometimes too much for their own good, and there is a reason I make the drive from lake Elsinore to anaheim more often than not, and rarely their westminster location still despite the options in between. I have faith in ruby's, it's regulars, and it's staff... no matter who leads it between Cherie and Mike, I know so long as it maintains its spirit, it can and will survive and do well. And I say this as someone with their popularity in reviews based mostly in negative truths. Ruby's sports bar is one of few establishments I place faith and trust in. And if anyone who reads this finds me there, let me know and we'll take a shot on me to Ruby's and the hope and memories it creates!“

Chicken Fajitas

“Great local dive bar with live music on the weekends. They pour a stiff cocktail, and the prices are fair. They don't serve food. However, there is a Mexican restaurant next door that offers takeout, or there will sometimes be a food truck that will pop by. My only minor gripe is that it is an Irish bar in name only. They have some Irish decor around the bar, but they don't have Guinness on tap, which is really a shame. It's a decent spot to watch a game, but they could use a few more TVs.“
