10 Best Bars in Big Bear Lake

“Great staff! Unfortunately, next weekend is the end😢“

“Coming straight off the PCT with serious hiker hunger, I needed a spot to seriously replenish those calories — and this place delivered. I went with the O.G. Burger and a full basket of garlic fries, washed down with a refreshing lemonade. The food was excellent and the portions were no joke. I struggled to finish the fries, but my trail appetite wasn’t taking “no” for an answer. Challenge completed!
The restaurant is very clean with a solid selection of beers on tap. The staff was super friendly and helpful. I only wish I hadn’t missed karaoke night — guess I’ll have to come back!
Thank you for the great meal and vibes. Highly recommend for thru-hikers and locals alike.“

“Classic bar. The decor is great, with lots of hardwood and a fireplace. Bartenders are skilled and friendly. Whiskey selection is extensive. Only 4 beer taps, but they're thoughtfully curated to provide a variety of good, mostly local beers.“

“What a groovy little spot! We stopped in after a ride at the ranch and enjoyed ourselves here. A lot of really kooky cool eye candy on the walls and everywhere. Cozy and small. Outdoor patio if it’s not too cold. Heidi and Chuck are the greatest! Very friendly and helpful and made our visit extra special. BJ’s has been around so long I find that fabulous!

I started with a glass of red and moved onto a rolling rock and they’ve got very decent prices. I had the Rueben sandwich and the sauce on. It was just lovely! It was cooked nicely and came out very hot which was great! My only complaint is there wasn’t nearly enough meat in it. I tasted mostly bread but with a little more meat that would’ve been perfection. The coleslaw has a nice twist instead of mayo. They use balsamic vinegar! Tart but lovely! Will definitely be back!“

“Great service. The patio was great. Amazing anti pasta salad. Best wings we’ve had!!! Crispy and tasty!!! The pizza was yummy!“

“One of the best chicken sandwiches I've had in a long time. I was skeptical about door dashing a cocktail but I was SO surprised when it came in a mason jar. Honey mustard was so tasty I used on my sandwich instead of the pickles. The pickles were good but a bit breaded for my taste. Regardless, this was the perfect pick for BB for my first night.“

“great people super fun lol“

“Food, drinks and service were all great!!“

“Second time my wife and I have eaten here and the place has been a solid choice. Good food, reasonable prices, and great views of the lake. The beautiful drive to Big Bear Lake is an added plus!“

“The bartender tonight was awesome! She was very helpful and funny. She made great recommendations on food and made my wife some amazing cosmos, highly recommend“
