50 Best Beer Bars near Garden Grove

“Best priced KBBQ in OC as of 2026. This is the ONLY place I know of where they allow you to pay a set price regardless of what time of day or what day or the week it is. The owner is fantastic and personally checks in on you. The meat is always fresh, delicious and generously portioned. They switch around the banchan and there kpop and soju everywhere. The service is fast, friendly and it feels like ajumma worried you're not eating enough. Parking can be a little tough and lines can long during weekend dinners. Also be aware that they only accept solo diners between Monday-Thursday from 11-4.“

“The girlfriend and I just moved here and checked this place out as it was close to home and had great reviews.

I had the smash burger and she had the chicken sandwich; both were delicious and the fact that they offer sweet potato fries is a plus. Extra points for the ranch, which was some of the best I’ve had and I never have ranch with anything.

Bartender didn’t have what I wanted but suggested an alternative and we both liked it.

The place is a vibe and definitely worth checking out.“

“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!!“

“everything was just great, even the beer.“

“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!“
