“We held our daughter and son-in-laws “ day after wedding” gathering for friends and family who couldn’t make it on their wedding day in 2021 (because of COVID limitations). We also just held a co-ed baby shower for them just this past weekend there.(2023). You now can reserve an area (for a fee) and get catered platters of food items. This made it so much easier than individual orders. Usually there is a band playing on Saturdays and Sundays. The staff were all nice and great to work with. It was great to have a large outdoor venue for their baby shower.“

GameCraft Brewing Brewery • $
1884 S Santa Cruz St, Anaheim - 9.02 miles

“Hosted a 40 people surprise party at GameCraft and I have never worked with a better brewery!!

Their small team of 4 were super accommodating to our requests, even though they were busy all day, and the drinks were BOMB (props to the brewmaster).

We were pleasantly surprised that they had a nerd market that day AND karaoke at 7 pm.
Even though we only booked for 3 hours and was planning to barhop after the event, we all stayed until closing cuz it was such a great place to just chill the night away.

BIGGGG SHOUTOUT to Misa, the hostess+bartender (iykyk) for entertaining our karaoke shenanigans!!“

The food is great, the service, out of this world, and the beer? The beer is perfect. I love, love, love the beer names. I opted, for one of my choices, for the Cream Abdul ja Beer. It may not be on the actual name but it's what I saw and its my story now. 😉

Salty Bear Brewing Brewery • $

“Salty Bear in Costa Mesa is a really chill spot with a relaxed vibe and friendly staff. The atmosphere is great for hanging out with friends, and the prices are fair for both drinks and food. I love the overall energy of the place, it feels casual and welcoming. The only downside is that the tables and booths are pretty uncomfortable and not very sturdy, which makes it hard to fully relax and enjoy a long visit. Still, it’s a great spot overall, and I’ll definitely be back for the good vibes and solid value.“

He knew the menu inside and out, gave excellent recommendations, and checked in just the right amount without ever being intrusive.

You can tell Max takes pride in what he does. His positive energy, professionalism, and attention to detail truly elevated our meal. Great service like this is hard to find, and Max absolutely nailed it. We’ll definitely be back and will be asking for him again!“

“Went to private evening event here. They had a good selection of beers and they catered with loads of food choices from appetizers (dips, chips, charcuterie, pretzel bites) to slightly larger options like sliders and wings, then also had a few sweets like cookies and churros. They then laid out to-go boxes for us to take home any spare food. I'd definitely go back for another event here!“

Love their lunch specials, so much food for a great price!“
