26 Best Bar & Grill near Laguna Beach

“This is my favorite place on earth! My second time visiting & it’s just as amazing as the first time only better! I look forward to revisiting for our 10th anniversary in about 3 years. The entire environment makes me feel complete 💝 See you soon!“

“The food was excellent! I will definitely return.“

“Matt, Michelle, and sons have been winning over the hearts of many locals and travelers like my wife and I for ten years. The ambiance and beautifully designed facilities boasts a spacious interior and exterior accommodations for cozy couples to larger groups. An amazing and diverse menu with a great wine, beer, and craft cocktails selection can exceed even the most particular palate. Personal recommendations include the prime rib or tomahawk steak champagne brunch or the terrific eggs Benedict. The chicken and waffles also became a fan favorite. The burgers are scrumptious and the fish is phenomenal. The steaks and... okay, everything is worth a try. (Don't forget to try some of their own homemade salsa with the appropriate menu items. They have many other homemade products available so give them a try). Just when you thought it couldn't get better. Matt has an outdoor extension project in progress that will accommodate additional bar, dining and music venue. This is hands down my favorite restaurant in California. Hoping that it becomes yours too! Cheers“

“Fun place to spend a Saturday night listening to LIVE music or any night watching a football game! Good food, too!“

“I’ve never had a bad meal at the Craft House. Every single thing I’ve ordered was delicious. Kate & Nate are the very best and make dining there so fun!!! I could eat there every day!!!!“

“Came here randomly to get a to go sandwich while on a wildfire detail from out of state and the patrons and the staff and owner were extremely kind. Got the recommended Cuban sandwich and it's one of the Top 5 sandwiches I've ever had.
Had a band playing and my only regret about the whole experience is that I couldn't stay and enjoy the incredible atmosphere. Made me feel at home from Tennessee. Class establishment. 5 🌟s.“

“We got there at our scheduled time. Our table was ready. While the patios and back yard were full, it was not crowded. The buffet line went smotthly and was easily managed. The food was top quality. The music was really nice; most people danced. It was a pleasant night all around. I'd consider it again when another night pops up on their radar. Thank you, Ken Brady“

“*Ladies, read this* I pass this place all the time and decided to give it a try one night with friends. It's got an up beat vibe, good music, friendly people and some typical sports bar stuff. Pool, darts, other games, so its got somethijg for everyone. The drinks are really great and the bar staff are even better! I will try to post the video I took of one of the male bartenders. He's handsome, super happy and friendly, and really fun to watch make drinks!! Stop by to watch football, it's an Eagles bar, play some games, have a great drink, do a little dancing, watch live bands, or just go watch the bartender do his thing! No matter why you go, it will be a fun time!“

“My best friend and I had lunch there today. The food was excellent, my dirty martini was perfect (and much needed!), and our server, Jacob, was fabulous. We made a pact that we will meet there at least once a month. Thank you for a great afternoon! 🍸“

“we visited from the UK & we had an amazing time. the food was great & the live band was brilliant. your staff were very friendly also“

“Awesome place! Great food and drinks and a nice atmosphere. Watching my 49ers game. 🏈“

“Every time I go there it's always amazing. The food is delicious and is a step above your typical order. For example, I ordered the lobster mac and cheese, and instead of your typical Mac and cheese with a little bit of lobster on it, it was brought out with shell macaroni, top with grated cheese, bread crumbs, and chives with big chucks of lobster meat. The service has always been friendly when I go, and the atmosphere is fancy but comfortable at the same time. I love going to this place and will continue to return!“

“Love it for the great live music on Saturday nights. So Underrated for a great place to hear live bands!! Nice, friendly people“

“Stopped in on a Friday night. They had a live band, beautiful bartender that made great drinks, and a great atmosphere. My lady and I had a great time. Highly recommend you stop in and check it out for yourself. We will be back!“

“LOVE the GOAT‼️♥️ 1st place I headed on my last day to begin my RETIREMENT‼️ Life is good‼️😃“

“I was told that Cassidy's in Newport Beach had the best burgers in town. I was out on a motorcycle ride today and supet hungry so stopped in for a bacon cheeseburger, fries. Ok, so they don't serve fries (bummer) but I have to admit they really do make a damn good burger 😋 in this little "Dive Beach Bar".
I'm not kidding or exaggerating these folks do a really great burger. 😋
If you like great burgers you gotta stop by. Enjoy 😋

“Good place to go to eat, even if you are not a golfer.
First visit, we sat inside, but there is a large outdoor dining area.
I had the Western BBQ Bacon Burger. It was good, plenty of bacon and tasty BBQ sauce. We also had the Butter Toffee Cake for dessert, very good.
Table service was a little lacking, but wouldn’t keep me from a second visit.
Prices are reasonable.
Recommended.“

“10 out of 10 for me best burger I've ever had so juicy and the Mac and cheese is to die for. They always have great seasonal drinks as a well as a full bar so you can quite literally get whatever you want. Great music and chill vibes not to far off the beach“

“Nice place, clean and friendly staff. Most importantly, the food is so awesome. The owner takes pride with his food! Not only the plating looks nice, but it’s so tasty. I don’t even understand those 1 star reviews. Will definitely come back for more!“

“We stayed at the Hilton in Costa Mesa and had coupons for complimentary Continental breakfast 2 mornings. The first morning we upgraded to hot buffet breakfast that included scrambled eggs, hash browns, bacon, sausage, oatmeal. The eggs were powered, the sausage tasted like cardboard and bacon was so-so. The oatmeal was homemade and was good! This breakfast cost $18.00 + tax. The second morning we ordered off the menu and was better choices getting fresh cooked food. My wife had omelet with hash browns and toast and I had eggs Benedict with hashbrowns and tomato slice and coffee. We both enjoyed these menu options!“

“I was very impressed with the Mother's Day brunch. I was greeted with a long stem rose. A bottle of Prosecco was served at each table. I love the fresh orange juice. A wide variety of brunch selections including an omelet bar. Bread pudding with vanilla ice cream for dessert. The price was so reasonable too!“

“We were at Cruisers for the college national championship game. The place was packed but comfortable. The service, especially considering the big crowd, was great! Their food is always good. I recommend Cruisers as a great place for a meal and a game or just to hang out for pizza and beer in Newport! Go Bucks!!“

“I don’t know why this place has such a low rating, everything I ordered I got the staff was attentive. The place was actually busy. I would definitely come back here again. I ordered a medium cheeseburger and as you can see from the pictures I got a medium cheeseburger. Ordered a 9 ounce pour, it was a fat 9 ounce pour which I appreciate. Thank you Staff“

“Well Julie & I Love Dance Together At Bigshots Billiards. My Favorite Food Is A Cheese Pizza & Julie Loves Salad.“

“Awesome pub on campus. Great bar food such as burgers, “stoner” fries with carne asada, nachos etc.. great kombucha beer options on tap as well as ciders.. also huge beer selection as well.
Great place to get together with friends or have some food and study. Bartenders are really nice.“

“Hobie Restaurant at John Wayne Airport is a surprisingly awesome spot to grab a bite before your flight! I stopped by for their tacos, and wow—they did not disappoint. The fish tacos were fresh, flavorful, and packed with perfectly crispy fish, tangy slaw, and a creamy sauce that tied it all together. The carne asada tacos were equally delicious, with tender, well-seasoned steak and just the right amount of toppings. For airport food, this is next-level good. The vibe is laid-back and beachy, which makes waiting for your flight way more enjoyable. If you’re passing through John Wayne Airport, do yourself a favor and grab some tacos at Hobie. You won’t regret it!“
