50 Best Bars near Cathedral City

“great dbl cheeseburger and fries. unlike other places they leave you alone while you're eating. unless of course they see you putting ketchup on your burger ( right cory!) been a resident of the desert for 48 years, never been to George's before yesterday. I will be back.“

“The Roost Lounge is a neighborhood bar with a nurturing family atmosphere where everyone feels welcome, from management to staff“

“I can definitely tell how cool this place is, but go ahead and drop by to see it for yourself!
It's a great time every time- your bartenders make you feel like family, drinks are fabulous fun, and delicious!! When they have the setup area for some grub, it ALWAYS smacks!♡♡
Thank you Barts for being the best!!!!“

“They have a very large selection of spirits. A nice selection of beers on tap but really great service.
I didn’t wait more than a minute for someone to come say “hi”, Carlos was the first to help me. Andre was the next to help. Both were super nice and made my day.
Carlos has been bartending for 17 years and it shows. He has great suggestions on the food menu, and made a perfect cocktail exactly the way it should be.
I’m really excited to stop by on my next stay here. Made my night.“

“Come for the casino, stay for some drinks. With over 50 types of agave-based spirits, Agave Caliente Tequila Bar is the perfect destination for tequila and mezcal fans. Their hand-crafted cocktails are paired with a tapas-style menu…our favorite were the short rib tacos.“

“I went to a lunch here with my work crew. There were around 15 of us and the service was excellent. The server did not mess anything up and everything came out pretty quickly. I got the shrimp tacos which were great. It seems like the menu is pretty focused on seafood and they had a pretty extensive selection of drinks.“

“We had an excellent experience. We played bridge in The Masters Lounge prior to our dinner. We were thrilled a sever came into the lounge to get drinks for us and our dinner order ready for us. It was perfectly timed as we finished our game we went directly into the dining room and our dinners had just been place on the table! It was perfectly timed. The food was delicious!“

“We were traveling and this was first time at a Tommy Bahamas (honestly didn’t know they existed except for their clothing line)… we were pleasantly surprised and reminded us a lot of a Kona Grill but better tasting and less expensive!… even sought out the manager to tell him so… service was also on par… we do highly recommend it…“

“There is good food, there is great food, and once in a great while you hit that place that not only has great food, but amazing service, owner and staff. Those moments really hit, and this was one of those moments. Hint, they open at 4, get in line at least by 3:30.“

“We had a great experience with the food and service at Bar Cecil — both were top-notch. Unfortunately, we reserved an outdoor table in August and deeply regret it. While the covered patio has fans and some portable AC units, it's not fully enclosed, and in triple-digit heat it's just not comfortable for a full dinner. For a quick drink and appetizer it might work, but for multiple courses and rounds of drinks, it was tough to enjoy. The most frustrating part was seeing several indoor tables open up after the initial rush. I even overheard our server mention they often get summer cancellations but don't re-list them on OpenTable. I'd absolutely come back — just never outside in summer again. Indoors only!“

“Food was delicious. My friend said the avocado toast was the best she’s had. Seating is limited but we didn’t need to wait to be seated. It was a little confusing to know where to sit but it’s basically first come first serve. Staff was friendly and attentive.“

“V Wine Lounge & Martini Bar is such a gem!
The vibe is always fun and welcoming. The dates here are to die for, seriously a must try! I also loved the karaoke, it adds such a fun energy to the night. And the lychee martini? So good! Perfectly balanced and refreshing. Between the great drinks, delicious bites, and lively atmosphere, this place never disappoints. Definitely a go-to spot for a fun night out!“

“We brought our youngest son and his girlfriend. They loved it as much as my wife and I do. Enrique, our server, was excellent. We took his recommendation and started with the pan and bombas for 4. Supreme way to start. The good, drinks and ambiance were on fire.“

“This place is awesome!!! So much fun!“

“Great service and great food! Every salad on the menu is amazing“

“Lovely spot to unwind after work. The lighting is soft, and the playlist was a nice mix of chill indie and soul. I had a gin and tonic that was perfectly made — lots of fresh lime and just the right amount of tonic. The bartender was friendly and remembered my name by the second visit, which made me feel like a regular even though it was my first time. The bar snacks are surprisingly good too — highly recommend the truffle popcorn.“

“This is one of the coolest bars anywhere. No signs. Just a heavy dark curtain covers the entrance from the adjoining steak house. Exceptional boutique cocktail bar. Wonderful libations and super service.“

“Stopped in with some friends for lunch on a Friday and was warmly greeted by the hostess upon walking in. We were sat right away and had drinks on the table in no time! Clyde was bartending and was so attentive and made sure everything we had was just right. The burger I had was great and the medallions fries were a better than I was expecting! Will definitely come back for the attentive and friendly service and good food!“

“The ambience was nothing short of magical—an elegant space with lighting and décor that made me feel like a mermaid dining under the sea. The sushi melted in my mouth, filling my palate with clean, smooth flavors; every bite felt otherworldly. The salmon sashimi was perfectly tender, paired with an exquisitely light sauce that elevated its freshness. The signature Venue Roll was truly a work of art—an array of flavors and textures coming together in a delicious symphony. Sou-Chef Yessika was absolutely lovely. I admire seeing such a talented, beautiful woman leading the craft with confidence and grace. I am not easily impressed—or perhaps I should say, my palate rarely is—but this experience was one for the books. The entire staff was warm, attentive, and made the evening all the more special. I look forward to meeting the executive Chef Engin. His staff spoke highly of his skill and ethic! Thank you for a truly unforgettable time!“

“This is my restaurant! I always get the classic burrito 🌯 Chicharron. It is delicious. Their food is the best and they filmed movies here! Must visit and dine here anf the owners are just the sweetest and provide the best customer service. My to go to spot for quick pick up when I'm in a rush.“

“Drinks are on point the views are on point. The food is good but not a lot of options“

“Concise Review Great poolside food, drinks, & staff ----- Longer Review We have visited Marriott’s Shadow Ridge in Palm Desert since 2002, and afternoons at the pool, with food and drinks from Chuckwalla Bar & Grill, are a bit part of every trip. One of my all time favorite photos is from a nice afternoon, poolside, several years ago when the kids were little... it was one of our most fun and peaceful afternoons as a family anywhere... the photos is of our daughter, asleep on my wonderful wife, my wonderful wife smiling at me, and our son was on the chair in between us, smiling as he was drinking a strawberry smoothie from Chuckwalla’s... such a blessing. We visited Southern California - Palm Desert, Yucaipa, and Malibu - for Spring Break 2021. This trip we had more activities off-property than usual, so we only got one nice long afternoon at the pool, and RebekahM made it a little extra special. The sun, the water, fun in the pool... and smoothies... such a joy. Before I had a chance to think about it, smoothies were en route from Chuckwalla... strawberry, banana, and alcohol-free pina colada. Rebekah delivered them to us with a big smile and infectiously positive attitude. Rebekah turned the fun up a notch with her dancing and smiling and laughing as she took our orders and delivered to the families around the pool... everyone was extra happy when she was around. Thank you, Rebekah and Chuckwalla, for another memorable trip! ----- ----- -----“

“Great ambiance, drinks, and service!!“

“This place is my all time favorite restaurant to eat in the Coachella Valley. Buzz always has the best recommendations for beer, the cocktails are fantastic, and the food is always fresh and tasty. We lived in Palm Desert for about 11 years and every time we’re back in town we make sure to come by here to grab a drink and some snacks. We love getting to see Buzz, he makes it the best place to eat!“

“Good food with good drink options and great area to hang out and mingle with friends and love ones. 10/10“

“Beautiful view! Amazing cuisine“

“Beautiful bar, nice view, Pool is nice too“

“Big thank you to our valet Ryan and front desk Darren. Both were very friendly and accommodating. We also loved Robert and Tony at the bar…we were not in the mood for any more alcohol and they made us a lovely mock-tail. Thank you! Can’t wait to come back!“

“The summer time 3 course $36 menu provides enough choice for everyone and is delicious! Our party of 4 relished every bite. And even in the heat, we were able to dine on the patio with fans providing cooling air. Thanks Si Bon for being a great neighborhood dining spot!“

“Just love the vibe, the food, the swanky cocktails and the service. Thank you for a fun experience and the Bear behind the bar 🐻“

“A wonderful wonderful evening - Chris helped us make a reservation that could work for our party and Ethan, our server was so amazing with his recommendations, delicious cocktails and his lovely demeanour. We had the best time at this beautiful spot.“

“Had a fantastic time at Libations Room in Palm Desert! Met up with a couple of friends on a Saturday night around 10:30, and the vibe was just right. We grabbed some drinks and headed to the back lounge, where the atmosphere was lively, the music was on point, and the energy was great. Perfect spot for a fun night out—will definitely be back!“

“The Red Barn is THE place to grab a cocktail with clients, friends or anybody. The Barn is chic and sophisticated with great spots to take photos, enjoy the live music or people watch. The drink list is extensive and thoughtful. We haven't had a concoction we did not enjoy, Troy especially enjoys the Marcie's Magic with his favorite mezcal.“

“We got the buffalo wings and French fries! They were delicious! I highly recommend them and would order them again! It’s a nice area to enjoy the game and appetizer food. It gets kinda loud and crowded but we were able to enjoy their meal. Sadly they only have Pepsi products here.“

“Watched the Budweiser Clydesdale horses and had a fabulous lunch.“

“Great service, great food, our bartender Ilda was amazing! highly recommend“

“People from every walk come here. Locals, snow birds, vacationers, and once in a while your Hollywood type…if you care about “star gazing.” Pretty bartenders and strong drinks make a nice combo.🙏🏻“

“Outstanding every-time we visit. Great Seafood, pasta, lobster bisque and much more. This is our favorite restaurant in Palm Springs and we recommend it as a definite not to be missed. Nothing fancy here, just great food and a comfortable welcoming environment. Enjoy!“

“in the heart of palm springs. Nice Patio and restaurant. Very good food. Nice and friendly server. very friendly owner.“

“Had a decent experience here. The drinks were good, but the place was a bit noisy for my taste. The crowd was young and lively, and the music was mostly electronic dance. If you're into clubbing, this might be your kind of spot. Service was friendly and efficient.“

“muy deliciosa comida y un ambiente agradable !!!!!!“

“We went to Birba on an exceptionally hot night and sat at the bar. We stayed cool by the misters and had a wonderful evening. The Bartender Lugo was insightful, friendly, efficient and professional. Our food (melon/prosciutto salad and specialty pizza) was amazing and service was well timed. Although not hungry enough for dessert, the menu looked fantastic. I commend Birba for a lovely evening in a lovely al fresco setting. It was also wonderful to be slightly out of town - a little more peaceful than some of the down town settings.“

“Always enjoy everything about Guillermo's. The food, ambience and visiting with Guillermo himself. As regulars there, we truly appreciate the warm welcome when we arrive. Highly recommended Guillermo's as one of the best restaurants in the valley.“

“Had a great experience. Service and food were very good and the entertainment was terrific - Back Beats was the duo. Great music!“

“Absolutely delicious! We went to Bongo Johnny’s for the first time, and we will definitely be going back! The staff was extremely friendly, and the food was so tasty! It is funny but the atmosphere seems very casual, but the food is something you would expect from a fine dining experience. Thankfully the prices were pretty reasonable! And to top it all off, the music was the best! When we were there they were playing 80s music and we just loved it! Bongo Johnny’s is a must if you haven’t been there yet. You won’t be disappointed! 😋😋😋“
