32 Best Cocktail Bars near Fontana

“This the perfect little dive bar. Not crowded. The times that I’ve been have not been busy. Just a small crowd. You will notice the same people if you go 3 times or more so you know it’s a neighborhood bar that has some loyal customers. Kinda every one knows each other but not every customer is a regular. They have a pool table & darts. My favorite part so far about going there is when there’s a song on the jukebox & everyone knows the words & they’re all singing. Half the time it’s a song I’ve never heard so the song isn’t necessarily a typical “bar” song. And there are some good singers in the mix! I like that when everyone starts singing they’re not bothering anybody. You can’t really do that at Boston’s! Lastly, all the girls (bartenders) are totally sweet, know their stuff, provide great service & are in good happy moods & don’t make you feel like you’re bothering them. And I also have to credit the one gentleman that works there & is there every single night. When it’s close to closing he’s there washing glasses, sweeping floors, pouring the very last drink for someone, cleaning bar top, whatever needs to be done to help the girls close down. And if you still have a few gulps in your glass, he’s not one to rush out you out. He lets you finish it. Then get out! Im sorry that I don’t know what his position is but I’m certain he’s either manager or owner. For me, being a single lady going there alone (not lonely!), I feel very at ease, comfortable & safe. Even when I leave & go to my car. There’s always 4 or 5 of us walking out at the same time.
Excuse the long review but if you can’t tell I RECOMMEND hanging out at Cherp’s. I hardly go to bar bars but this one I like !!!“

“Hands down one of the best bar experiences I’ve had in a long time!

Ziggy’s has it all — great vibes, even better drinks, and a team that genuinely cares about your experience. From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed, thanks especially to Angel, who went above and beyond with his customer service. Super attentive, friendly, and made some solid drink recommendations. Definitely ask for her if you go!

The atmosphere is just right — chill but lively. There’s a pool table if you’re looking to play, and the live DJ kept the energy going without it being too overwhelming. It’s the kind of place where you can either turn up or just relax and catch up with friends.

And let’s talk about the drinks — strong, delicious, and most importantly, reasonably priced. You’re getting quality without the crazy markup, which is a rare find these days.

If you’re looking for a fun night out with great service, music, and drinks that don’t break the bank, Ziggy’s is the spot. I’ll definitely be back!“

“Man, I went to this Mexican spot today and the food was good. The green enchiladas hit and the shrimp was pretty fire. The beans were another story though. I am not sure who made them, but they tasted like a personal attack.

The service was crazy good. Probably the best I have ever had. They were so nice and on top of everything. It honestly made the whole visit great.

So yeah, I would go back. I am just staying away from the beans because those things were wild.“

“Been here before, brought students on this particular venture. Food was excellent, wait staff attentive (appreciated that we can be bilingual with them), and of course the entertainment was on point. In between the feature was a salsa quartet who played along to pistas, which are beefed-up karaoke tracks. That said, the caliber of musician was fantastic, and super-entertaining. Then we come to the star of the show and the reason for the visit: Mariachi Internacional. Forgetting for a moment they are one of the best mariachi ensembles in the Los Angeles area, their clean, powerful sound was just what we wanted to show our student as far as the balance between quality musicianship and humble humans who genuinely appreciate the audiences who patronize the restaurant. They stayed after their final show and talked to students, posed for photos, and had genuine conversations with them. Thank you PV’s for an outstanding experience!“

“Great food !! Happy Friendly people family environment restaurant“

“From the moment we sat down, everything was incredible-even the water. It tasted so fresh and clean, which honestly set the tone for the entire meal. The food was absolutely amazing; every single bite was packed with flavor. You can tell the chef truly did his thing-everything was cooked and seasoned to perfection. The dessert was just as amazing, the perfect way to end the meal. On top of that, our waiter Victor was phenomenal. This was our first time here, and he was so knowledgeable, patient, and helpful-answering all of our questions and guiding us through the menu with ease. A flawless dining experience all around.“

“Very good drinks, great atmosphere!“

“Me and my girls had a ball last night at Raquel's. We will be back very soon!“

“Everything was amazing. Definitely reccomend papas bravas with carnitas. Sally was kind and attentive. And gave great reccomendations. We had the margarita sampler, all 3 delish, as well as the chile pepino (super yummy), and the guacamole also delish, (mix the salsa and guac on one chip for a tasty creamy, and spicy surprise). Finally we shared the steak fajitas and added shrimp. 10/10. Finished the night with churros con chocolate. A sweet and smooth ending to an already amazing experience. From the amboance, the vibes, aesthetic, kind staff, clean restaraunt, and killer food. I will definitely be adding this place to my roster of date night locations I get the pleasure of enjoying with my beautiful wife. We will defintely be back. ;)“

“Wonderful atmosphere wonderful food gotta go there!“

“We really enjoy coming here however, it can be a little bit slow to get service even if you're sitting at the bar. The drinks are good and the food is more of a hit than a miss. Mini rotates seasonally but as of right now and August I recommend the crab nachos.“

“This place is a ‘hidden’ gem. The oysters were fresh and include west coast and east coast offerings. The poke was also fresh and very good. The cocktails were craft and the bartender was very knowledgeable and handy with the mixer. Will definitely be back (and definitely want to check out happy hour).“

“Love you Irma!!! You pour a mean drink..“

“Ordered a tri-tip sandwich and a strawberry cheese salad. This was the first time I ordered something to be delivered at a specific time. They delivered right on time and the quality of the food of course is always was delicious. Thanks again guys for doing a great job“

“Majestic vibes. Lots of comfort seating and large area to dance. Amazing drinks.“

“The food was authentic and amazing, I couldn't have been more happy with my 20 dollar plate. The portion was HUGE, I couldn't even finish my 3rd street taco. Also, I never go for beans and rice, but oh my goodness were they delicious. Both the regular and spicy salsa are sublime, and I would definitely recommend them any day to anyone looking for authentic Mexican food. Vibe was great, too, lovely waitress, food, and the Newcastle vs Barcelona game on the many screens was the icing on the cake 👌.“

“I booked the Agave Room for a surprise party and had the best experience! The event sales manager, Amber, had great recommendations for our event and was so helpful with any questions I had about the space, timeline and logistics, and anything else I could think of. On the day, we had amazing servers, Marissa and Erica, who also helped me with any questions I had while I was setting up. The bartenders, Bianca and John, were so friendly and professional and my family and friends had only good things to say about the food, drinks, and overall service! The event went by smoothly, everyone was having a good time, and I was able to focus on the things I had planned. The Agave Room is separated by curtains from the rest of the restaurant, but felt very private and we were able to have our own music and games without disturbing the rest of the place. I would absolutely recommend booking an event here as it's a beautiful space, the service is amazing, and everyone was so accommodating.“

“That's a great place if you wanna hang out and watch the games. was packed by 10:30am on a Sunday morning. My kids enjoyed all the sandwiches drinks whatever came through our table of 20. they're not a breakfast place thats for sure, not many choices. we had a pretty large group and most of our breakfast was cold. the waitress kicked butt, she was really good and very sweet. the guys helping deliver the food not happy looked overwhelmed.. Refills well we had to keep on asking...“

“Okay, the tacos didn't travel well, primarily due to the shells getting too wet from each others' ingredients, but the fillings were just fine. Would happily eat them on-site, next time. Where this place gets its massive props from me? The ceviche (I had the spicy version), and the amazingly great clam chowder. I mean, I know that chowder is a popular item in Baja, but now I have no reason to travel and find out why. For all I know they opened a can of clam chowder and enhanced it with their own secret blend of herbs and spices, but who cares? It was fantastic.“

“Was ‘ Looking for fish & chips! But the seafood mix was 💣“

“Great service. Cool place to grab lunch and a beer.“

“came here for the first time last night because I just opened a tow yard close by and the place seemed to be poppin. was a awesome choice. pulled in and the lot had classic cars and low lows parked outside. that was the first sign that it was meant to be. ordered fish tacos and they were bomb! wife ordered flautas for the babies and they had cheese inside. apparently they were amazing also. the salsa bar.... every salsa was very good I had to have all of them. good vibes! was leaving and a guy was walking to patio with a burrito the size of a football no lie! will be a new spot for the family for sure!“

“Delicious food and friendly staff!“

“Brought my grandkids here and they loved it.. friendly employees and very courteous.. Awesome food!!!🍤 🍚🍗“

“We had such a great experience. The atmosphere was elegant. The food was amazing! Special thank you to our server Nixon for his excellent service and for making us feel at home. We enjoyed the music and especially our singer Alejandro who not only did the traditional bday song but also the Stevie Wonder version. Iykyk😉🥳🎉.“

“Went mid day on a Sunday and we were seated immediately, food came out almost immediately after ordering it. Our server Tiffany was so sweet and informative, loved her customer service. We got the spicy edamame, 6 piece beef gyozas, a FrankenStein roll, a hotlanta roll, 2 waters, 1 iced tea, and a michelada for about $87. Everything was absolutely delicious and every person that worked there was super sweet and checked up on us. Will be back, for sure“

“Live music, the band's performance was great, @Rattlers love the music. Great service.“
