47 Best Beer Bars near Huntington Beach

“great pizza choices, super ipa's and service.“

“This place is always great. We love their pies! Some of our favorites include the Joint Decision, Special Agent Utah, and Fiin’n to Fire. Their buffalo habanero wings are phenomenal (though they are definitely spicy). We had the Mo Money Mo Problems pie Detroit style and it was a bit dry since there is no pizza sauce (white pie), but we love getting their pizzas just the classic thin style. Wait times can be extremely long (over an 1.5 hrs) if you are eating at the restaurant, but it’s nice that we can order a beer at the bar and wait for our table in the meantime. Staff are all friendly! Definitely a great time“

“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!“

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

“Absolutely incredible establishment with the best live music in the whole city. I had an absolute blast here and will be recommending this place to everyone I see!! The service was impeccable by the way, thank you for such great hospitality BJ!!“

“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.“

“Small family vibe, always great live music, friendly and attentive staff, and Noah always picks the best wines. What isn’t there to love?“

“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.“

“Soooooo good. I can still get in here with no line, however, there will come a time…….when there will be a long wait!“

“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.“

“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.“

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

“Great food and great staff“

“Servers were so kind and sweet and always had a really bright smile, I’m mainly writing this review because the servers were so nice to us! The meat is also very high quality and fresh, the galbi, rib fingers, and the beef tongue were especially tasty. They also have free self serve ice cream as a desert after you’re finished eating. My mom was eating the ice cream outside the restaurant and one of the workers noticed she didn’t know where to throw it away and even took our trash for us after we left the restaurant. Really appreciate how sweet the workers were and how high quality the meat was, highly recommend coming here!“

“it has been many years since I have been there but it was a great place with their three or four times when I was stationed on the USA USS New Jersey“

“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.“

“Love this place and I frequent it quite a bit now. Drinks are reasonable price, atmosphere is chill and sporty and bartenders are very attentive and always on point. Beer selection is nice and wide enough that I'm always having a diverse amount drinks from IPAs, blondes or whatever. Even the food is pretty nice. I usually recommend the fries.“

“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.“

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

“everything was just great, even the beer.“

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

“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.??“

“Super friendly. Have been going here for years it’s been a while since we have been back but always vibes walking in the door the owner and his daughter have always made us feel right at home wither it was packed out a few people there. Miss you guys will be back one day. lol“

“I tried Tsuruhashi for the first time, and everything was delicious. The meat was high quality, especially the wagyu, which melted in your mouth. I really liked the sauce that they gave to dip the meat; it went really well together. Service was nice and attentive. I'd highly recommend this place.“

“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.“

“So happy they finally opened! Always great service! Amazing quality meat and fresh veggies!“

“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.“

“It’s okay ! 😎😎😎 😂😂😂😂😂😂 🧐🧐🧐🧐❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️“

“todo muy rico excelente y el ambiente de lo mejor y más cuando toca el karaoke el Guero Palma awiwi 😂😂😂“

“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.“

“Service is outstanding! The place is clean including the bathroom. Food is awesome🥰“

“I don't think they serve food but the drinks are stellar! The Boulevard is a great local spot with a range of options from crafty fresh squeezed cocktails, top shelf shots or white claw... and everything else - they have it all. The pool table in the back is nice, there are large TVs and great tunes playing. They also have cozy interior booths for date night lol.

The service is the best - friendly and quick. The drinks are moderately priced normally a good deal but I also suggest going during happy hour from 5-7pm. They have fun decorating for Halloween and the holidays too which adds to the vibe. I definitely recommend stopping by The Boulevard for an adult beverage with atmosphere.“

“TV, adult beverages & relaxation“

“Nicest people! This is our favorite place for many years already!! Best Authentic Thai food!!“

“1. Atmosphere

* The atmosphere is out of this world—it feels like stepping into a portal blending different eras.
* A unique mix of cowboy, 80s, and vintage themes, including 1800s-style carts you can sit in.

2. Space & Crowding

* The space is fairly tight and gets very packed, especially during busy hours.

3. Cleanliness

* Bathrooms are well-maintained, clean, and presentable.

4. Beer Quality

* The pilsner is decent, but it doesn’t quite deliver the distinct flavor expected from a true craft beer.

5. Overall Experience

* A good spot overall with a very unique vibe—worth visiting and easy to recommend.“

“Great food! The only downside is the loud and ugly ‘Banda’ music, can’t order food or have a conversation without yelling.“
