42 Best Bar & Grill near Brea

“honestly i was expecting a basic golf course bar with nothing but bud light and old peanuts but it actually has a solid craft beer selection including a couple local ipas i hadnt tried before. grabbed a burger and it was cooked perfectly with fresh toppings even though it took a little longer than i hoped to come out. the view from the patio looks right over the course so it a nice spot to just hang out and the servers were super friendly even when it got busy. my only small thing is the parking lot is kind of a mess especially on weekend afternoons with people dodging golfers. definitely will be back for the beer list alone even if im not playing that day.“

“🍅 🍲 And a lot of friendly peoples. Atmosphere is very nice and decorated.“

“The BBQ skewers are the standout. Perfectly grilled, well-seasoned, and consistent across the board. You can tell they’re not cutting corners on quality or technique. Every skewer comes out hot, flavorful, and balanced—not overly greasy or dry, which is where a lot of places fail.

The drink selection is equally solid. Whether you’re into something light or stronger, they’ve got options that pair well with the food instead of overpowering it. No gimmicks, just well-made drinks.

What really ties it all together is the vibe. The music is on point—present but not intrusive—and the whole place has a relaxed, unpretentious energy. It’s the kind of spot where you can actually unwind without feeling rushed or overwhelmed.“

“I really love the Restaurant. I go every year with Family Friends .I love the Decorations in the Restaurant ,my only issue is that it took us a long time to get a table but we did come a very busy time. They tried there best to get us a table.“

“I’ve been going to Brian’s sports bar since my college days at Cal State Fullerton from 1979 through 1984. Great place to have food, share laughs. and have an ice cold beer.“

“Great atmosphere and service was great Katrina and Jen were great“

“A hidden gem found by accident as I stayed in the Doubletree by Hilton nearby. Excellent beef dish with sprouts and tried for the first time silkworm pulpo soup which was better than I expected once I got over the idea and look of it. Some drunk noisy obnoxious patrons to be expected but otherwise had a great meal in a small mom and pop Korean resto. Will definitely come back and try other dishes. The waitress was also very nice and although she could not speak very well English she was very polite, nice and attentive.“

“Definitely going back food was amazing“

“Have been here several times.
Most memorable was when my best friend's picked me up after a 3 week vacation and brought me here.
Katie welcomed us with a huge smile. She was professional, customer oriented and genuinely caring and friendly. Thank you!!“

“We actually ended up at Salty Dawg Tavern by mistake because of a mix-up with our plans, but what a happy accident! This place is a total gem that we never would have discovered otherwise.
The food was great, the waitresses were super nice and friendly, and the overall vibe in the tavern was so much fun. It felt like the perfect spot for a relaxed, enjoyable time.
Highly recommend stopping in — even if you find it by accident like we did! We'll definitely be back on purpose next time. 🐶🍻“

“Was in the area with my mom to get her a car. We had an hour to kill so we came here for lunch! Everything was amazing! It was fresh fast and the staff was very friendly and helpful! I would recommend to anyone that's a poke fan! This was for sure a hit!“

“The food was amazing had an Italian sandwich that was monster and it was like $14 it'd be any sandwich for you
can go to any of this had a pool table
and a bar and a lot of friendly locals and outside smoking patio and clean bathrooms. Want more could you ask for it in a little local joint? I will come back for sure today was my second time in two months“

“My friend and I really enjoyed going to clubhouse. The atmosphere is awesome and the bands that play are terrific.“

“I rated this based on typical bar food. It’s better than most. Nachos are really good, hamburger also good. Fish and chips too. It’s not usually crowded. They have a pool table and darts. Tons of TVs but a nice assortment of sports. Last time we were there they had basketball but also golf and figure skating. And best of all, it’s not expensive compared to most places in the area.

Vegetarian options: Not a ton of options but there’s nachos, fish and chips (if you eat fish) and probably a few others.“

“Always a good time at the swig!“

“Nice little joint will be coming back“

“Killer entertainment. Go Latin Soul Band.“

“Biggest Bucs bar in California !“

“Great Bartenders Great people fast tables …“

“The loaded baked potato was AWESOME now they need to bring back the broccoli and cheddar cheese baked potato.“

“Amazing service came with my family to celebrate my birthday. Our waiter was exceptional Yamileth took care of everything my family is a little picky so we had a lot of substituting items which she gladly did with no issues. Amazing service and amazing food truly enjoyed the ambient and had great music playing in the background“

“The steak and lobster and drinks“

“Great food my new favorite place...“

“Been to many many a bar in my lifetime. Scratch's is definitely top 3 for me. Huge brew selection, fair prices, great food, very comfortable atmosphere and it seems to be a magnet for very attractive women. Love the dart league

Parking: There are good number of spots in front of the location and then there is a huge shared parking lot with home Depot and del Taco that isn't being used by the other businesses later in the night and is never full in the day anyway.“

“I've been there 2 times thus week,, sooo much fun great food & drinks, Pete introduced himself to us as well. we'll be back!!“

“Great Ribeye! Slightly crispy on the outside and juicy throughout. Also had their homemade Apple Cider Sorbet which was so delicious!We sat in the booths so it was a very classy, cozy atmosphere. Great for taking the parents or in-laws out for a special occasion or just for a nice piece of steak.“

“Wings, Spin fries, flat pizza ,nachos and drinks never a dull moment 😊“

“The place is a small bar, two pool tables, a small dance floor, but the vibe is poppn'.. 5 of us went and we had a blast, we got lucky it was someone birthday and there was live music (banda). The food was great, which caught me by surprise ? ? ?. We loved it so much that we had two orders of the same. The girls at the bar and waitress are friendly. If I'm in the area, I would pop in.“

“Good drinks. And pool tables. And good atmosphere“

“Good times guaranteed. Good drinks.“

“I love this place everyone there makes you feel welcomed. The bartenders are amazing great service. If your looking to try out some new dranks definitely hit up Justine, her and juan (old bartender thats use to work there)got me hooked on that "Irish breakfast" shot definitely a must try if you wanna try out new dranks. Howard is a great karaoke dj fun and funny and treats everyone like family he makes it alot of fun. Security is friendly and hilarious. Over all great place and fun to go to.“

“If you want a nice diner and great talk, definately come here, enough space, quite ambient to actually listen your partner to have a nice chat, and also ask for Carmen at the bar, her drinks are the best, 100% worthy, ask for her signature cocktails and thank me later ???

Parking: Sincé the bar is inside the hotel, you can Park at the front or at the parking lot next to the hotel, is like 2 min walk to the bar.

Kid-friendliness: Definately suitable for Kids, nice and clean place, awesome Job DoubleTree ??“

“Went for the first time last night as we are visiting from Las Vegas. We absolutely loved it. The service from both the servers and owner were subpar. The food and drinks were to die for, especially the food. We got to enjoy karaoke singing from the other patrons. The owner was extremely accommodating towards my service dog. He had a few questions which is normal but he said he had never had one in his establishment before us. Will definitely be back when we are in town ?? Lots of love from us! Thank you for making it a special night.“

“My son and I dined here for breakfast. We both had the American breakfast, eggs, bacon and toast. The eggs were good, mine over easy and my son liked his scrambled. The toast was good as were the potatoes. The OJ was also good. We enjoyed it so much we both had the same breakfast the second day.“

“I loved it thanks again so much I had a good time“

“The kitchen staff is top notch! It is apparent the kitchen staff takes great pride in the delivery of your plate. I wouldn’t be surprised to see Guy Fieri raid this joint! Live music and drinks too!!!“

“This bar is rocking! Great music, bar maids, and cool crowd!“

“The atmosphere is the best.“

“Had a great time, but they lack seating and prices are not on the menu so be careful. Ended the night with a hefty bill for a party of 6, not to mention the $15 cover charge for each person. Made for an expensive but fun night! I would have included the amount but they already deleted it from another post.“

“Thuw place is cool, but the service wasn’t great. I ordered two Mai Tais and received a Mai Tai and a strawberry drink. When I mentioned it, the waitress said it was just the garnish, which wasn’t accurate. I even started walking to the bartender before she stopped me. They also automatically add 18% gratuity to all bills, which didn’t feel deserved with the service we received.“

“The owner is an idiot! He was given a new concept and his arrogance defeated him, and he just doesn’t get it!“
