50 Best Beer Bars near Fountain Valley

“everything was just great, even the beer.“

“O.M.G. i stumbled on this place randomly aince the place we wanted closed. Cook your own food like Kbbq. But its not all you can eat. Proces are a bit high. But the quality of food is AMAZING. Literally melts in your mouth. Real Japanese taste and items. Before this place I had no idea wasabi actually had flavor wasnt just spicy.Even the rice is better than normal. Worth the price but get ready to spend about 100 to 150 for 1 to 2 people. Again... delicious. They dont have many decorations and the tables are a lil cramped for tall pepple. I cant think of any music playing. But the people are very nice and attentive.“

“Wonderful family & friendly atmosphere with a smile😊😊😊🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭“

“The pizza was very good! Thin crust and absolutely flavorful. The only thing I hate is their ordering system. Really wish they would implement online ordering pickup. Also after a certain time they stop taking phone orders, it sucks because pizza is one of those dishes I love just eating at home. Anyways if you can get a hold of them, highly recommend!“

“Great food and place to sneek a beer on your lunch hour 😉“

“My favorite place to go eat when i visit my family in Santa Ana. I usually get their Fish platter. With black beans, rice, and Ensenada style fish. Ive tried their grilled fish which is actually subpar, definitely their worse style. Blackened is good, but Ensenada style is where its at.“

“Great food, ingredients and flavor. Very clean, comfortable, family friendly establishment. Great place to grab a bite.“

“First timer drove all the way from Downey worth the drive. I had the blue cheese bacon burger with garlic fries and of course a Dr. Pepper. Very friendly staff they all help out my daughter had the mushroom burger with onion rings and my son had the bacon cheese burger with tots. A must try the only other thing that caught my eye was the hot wings the table next to us ordered Definitely next time“

“My wife and I love this place! It's tucked into a corner of the strip mall and attached to a number of food options. It's windows are usually open so it's a great stop on a nice afternoon. Omar is an upbeat, fun bartender with creative drink ideas and a joy to hang with. Good music, nice vibes and a cherished secret in a sea of corporate offices.“

“A small izakaya in the OC area that's well worth a visit. The food was excellent and stood out compared to some of the more well-known izakayas nearby. With warm hospitality and a well-executed menu of classic izakaya dishes. It’s a place you really can't go wrong with.“

“This bustling place has been growing. I’d love to see one or two up North in Oregon. Good skate parks and beers. Or maybe I just have enjoy the SOCal that much.“

“Toda su comida es deliciosa y el ecselente trato , muy familiar.“

“This Korean bbq is pretty good. It's cheaper than the others n there isn't a salad bar but if the meats are good that's what's important to me. Bulgogi was good as was brisket. Attentive waiters to make sure you've got meat to grill without waiting“

“Lots of great taste in a sandwich & secret sauce is amazing!“

“Great food and great staff“

“Living in the boonies of San Diego Co has benefits…(no traffic jams)…but few awesome perks…(like Tiki bars!!) Luckily the gods aligned, in Orange Co, and our last stop was the Stowaway. Intriguing, dark-painted, one small door marked the front of a strip-mall establishment… hmmm…sorta scary…but not really!! But there were two of us, and we had researched this place…so… The doorman looked at us, said a few things and unlocked a chain. We walked through curtains into the darkest bar I had ever been in, and shuffled toward the green lit bar…which turned red, then blue. The girl bartender handed us a card which we couldn’t read…it was really dark inside. From the shadows, up walked a bearded guy wearing a black shirt with hibiscus’s, smiled, extended his hand and said, “Hi, I’m “WILL”…can I explain anything to you? We had lots of questions…about drinks, Tiki ceramics, glassware, appetizers…and WILL cheerfully explained everything…He was fun, cheery, smart, and So Nice!! He brought us amazing drinks (a Tropical Margarita, a Cococano and totally fun ceramic sculptures from which to drink…an Angler Zombie Fish with a light, and Carved Volcano mug that had a flame show-by WILL, included!! Awesome!!) Totally wonderful décor…lights, bamboo furniture, comfy stools, the Skull Cave and waterfall, starry night ceiling, cool pool tables with lotsa room around them…everything thought through perfectly!!! We are definitely going back…VERY soon!!!! Thanks so much for everything, WILL!!“

“Longtime listener, first time caller. First off, Cynthia took my order and she was fantastic, offering her personal faves to try; which, I got the honey garlic boneless wings and the cheese sticks 🤤 MOUTH WATERING!!! And even though it was supposedly the busiest time of the day, got it out super quick and even walked it over to our table!!! 12/10 WILL RETURN!!!“

“Lane Stone delivered an unparalleled level of client service that surpassed all expectations. He consistently went above and beyond, dedicating his weekends to showing us houses and remaining patient as we took our time to make decisions. He even proactively contacted agents with homes in escrow to explore the possibility of submitting backup offers. Thanks to his unwavering commitment, we successfully closed on our house during a highly competitive market period. Lane made it his priority to ensure that we felt valued and received his undivided attention throughout the process. The Sackin-Stone team, including Lane, provided outstanding support, with other agents stepping in when needed. Our experience with the Sackin-Stone team was exceptional, and we intend to rely on them for all our real estate needs in Orange County. They have earned a client for life!“

“Great, fresh assortment of taps. Something for everyone. Excellent grilled cheese.“

“The Best 30 years ago, and still the Best NOW!🤙“

“Great happy hour and good food. We went here while staying at the hotel for our Disney trip and it ended up being our groups rest spot after a long day. If you're going to get a specialty cocktail, the Smoky Sparrow was really smooth and the aromatics were wonderful. The server/bartender Zaira was really attentive and kind to our group with toddlers.“

“Good food and service……..“

“Really good sandwiches and beer. Mixed experiences with select staff. A couple awkward - not so welcoming interactions with 2 male staff on two separate days. Did not feel welcomed. Other than those two guys, the rest of the staff are very friendly, prompt, and welcoming.“

“Good food & a great changing beer menu!“

“I was blown away - I had the best Spätzle ever, paired with a delicious German Riesling! The wait staff was amazing in every way. I enjoyed the creative look of the outdoor area with friends, then when we walked inside we saw an amazing Beatles cover band. Great experience!“

“I ordered here for the first time yesterday. I’ve always picked up orders to deliver for customers and the food always smelled good. I finally gave it a try and I must say I’ll definitely be back lol.“

“Great food always served fresh. Highly recommended!“

“Cool Newport Beach bar sitting on the beach side. Has been There that I remember from the ’60’s“

“Exceptional service and delicious food! We had lunch and dinner for 3 straight days and it was always awesome!“

“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.“

“Come here for happy hour. Cheap drinks“

“Me and my family a total of 14 people scheduled reservation right before closing time we were visiting for vacation and let me tell you this restaurant and their staff went above and beyond to make sure that our food and our experience was nothing but amazing Very good authentic fresh Mexican food love it and definitely will be coming back when I visit again“

“This is a great place to golf and practice and putting. The employees are special and go out of their way to make your experience special. The owners are hands on. Just ah great place to be. And the ladies in the restaurant are awful pretty and make great food. The one name connie is a treasure.??“

“This is a traditional Vietnamese bar & grill place (Quan Nhau). It has a lively atmosphere. Seems to be popular with the older folks compared to other places. Having said that, the service and food are great! Just be ready for the bad, loud karaoke singing and smoking. Not a family hangout.“

“Me and my hubby been docking boats or ferry-hopping our bikes to Balboa saloon since the seventies. Half the year we live in Newport, half Montana-where whiskey still hollers your name out there. This here's our bar, our heartbeat. Fourth we light it up, holidays on lock, pool tables bruised from our elbows, salt and lager thick as perfume. Ensenada-Newport race? Honey, we command this place like pirates. The Owner finally did somethin' right-floor don't grab my flip-flops, somebody's moppin'! Jeff's still king behind the bar, new gals laugh real, pour cold, TVs sharp as knives. Only hitch-get Cruisers to wing it over so we quit dodgin' Death Trap Balboa Boulevard. Five stars, fat tip, and girl-we're bringin' every neighbor, every sunburned neighbor's dog, every salty soul we love down here to share the buzz we just crashed into.“

“Hit the mark, prices ok, 24/7 Willy Wonka on TV👍“

“INCREDIBLE is an understatement! From the ambiance, to the service, to the impeccably currated menu. Just WOW. The attention to detail on every aspect at Casa De Onda was perfection. The tropical margarita was a show stopper, fresh lime and coconut is a combo I didn’t know I needed. The steak frites melted in you mouth & was topped with a homemade Chimichurri that was a burst of fresh flavor. The vibes from start to finish we insane! 1000/10.“

“Great beer selection to wash down the cheap but excellent sandwiches“

“Fun place- great food. We went for my husbands birthday. It was fun“
