50 Best Bars near North Palm Springs

“We stopped by Jalisco’s this morning for brunch and it ended up being such a great experience! As soon as we walked in, we were greeted with a warm, friendly smile and told we could sit anywhere. The vibe was welcoming right from the start.
I ordered the cucumber lemonade and OMG — highly recommend! Super refreshing, crisp, and delicious. For food, we got the chilaquiles and the nachos (as pictured), and both were packed with flavor and the perfect amount of spice.
The place stayed busy the whole time we were there — even a local sheriff’s deputy came in, which to me says a LOT. You know they’re picky about where they eat, so that’s when you know the food is good!
If you’re visiting the area or just passing through, Jalisco’s is a must-stop. Friendly service, great food, and an overall awesome vibe. Definitely going back!“

“There is good food, there is great food, and once in a great while you hit that place that not only has great food, but amazing service, owner and staff. Those moments really hit, and this was one of those moments. Hint, they open at 4, get in line at least by 3:30.“

“We came here from Canada and I just needed to write a review about Patrick, he visited our table and made sure we all ordered food that we’d like etc, but his personality was absolutely phenomenal, he is so hilarious and personable. Would absolutely recommend this place solely to see him but the food was just as good.“

“Love this place, and their new expansion is beautiful, great hang out. I'm not a lover of banquette seating, tables are to close for any kind of intimate conversation, they did try to move us but as usual the place was booked, one of the owners said hello to us on our way out. We most definitely will return, my only critique I think they should offer a different dinner mint with your check, I used to get the chocolate mints at dennys. lol“

“Our 5th year dining at The Farm for Valentine's Day. The service is wonderful and the food is beautifully presented. There are plenty of choices available and the portions are just perfect as well as the pace that the food is brought out. It is a lovely dining experience when in Palm Springs.“

“The Roost Lounge is a neighborhood bar with a nurturing family atmosphere where everyone feels welcome, from management to staff“

“great dbl cheeseburger and fries. unlike other places they leave you alone while you're eating. unless of course they see you putting ketchup on your burger ( right cory!) been a resident of the desert for 48 years, never been to George's before yesterday. I will be back.“

“I can't say enough about the vibe, people, space, and staff. The staff are wonderful, they won me over because a friend accidentally knocked over my martini that I literally had two sips from it. This happened right near the bar and the bar tender who made my the original martini saw this and started making me another and when I went to pay she said no. That is really amazing. And the other bartender was so nice as well. We were there because a friend reserved the back part for a party and it was the perfect space. There were about 30 people and had food catered in, such a great time. Was my first time and looking forward to going back.“

“The food was so delicious; we had the tuna belly tinned fish, chicken skewers, and shrimp, plus hummus and broccolini. That was plenty of food for three people. They have a nice selection of mocktails and cocktails. The service was flawless.“

“Gay Bar for predominately men 40’s yrs old plus, does not exclude women. Great atmosphere and lively patio. Active afternoons - 10:00 pm+/- Good friendly crowd! No food! Not a restaurant! Wall seating, some tables, large bar with seating. Events with small stage on certain nights. Has huge chandelier over bar that is decorated for every holiday!“

“Truly a delightful place to stop by for lunch. After a day of sightseeing, I wanted to go locally to have a nice meal without trekking a long ways. The Pantry fit the bill as the ambiance reminded me of one of the restaurants I visited in Southern France.

The staff were friendly and made great recommendations from the menu. I liked that it wan’t a huge restaurant so it had a warm and cozy feeling to it.

I loved the lobster roll and rose spritz that I had. Everything was tasty and enjoyed my lunch. I would definitely be back again to try other items off the menu.“

“The environment is AWESOME! Not to mention the music is 🔥🙌DJ LF GETS IT 🔥“

“Owners are amazing, staff always present and wonderful atmosphere. Best Neighborhood Barcaround.“

“Great ambiance, drinks, and service!!“

“Drinks are on point the views are on point. The food is good but not a lot of options“

“Big thank you to our valet Ryan and front desk Darren. Both were very friendly and accommodating. We also loved Robert and Tony at the bar…we were not in the mood for any more alcohol and they made us a lovely mock-tail. Thank you! Can’t wait to come back!“

“Just love the vibe, the food, the swanky cocktails and the service. Thank you for a fun experience and the Bear behind the bar 🐻“

“This is one of the coolest bars anywhere. No signs. Just a heavy dark curtain covers the entrance from the adjoining steak house. Exceptional boutique cocktail bar. Wonderful libations and super service.“

“Beautiful bar, nice view, Pool is nice too“

“All residents of the Morongo Basin know that our home doesn't have much of a bar scene, which is fine for the granola munching rock climbers, ganja purists, and christian conservatives that prolly make up 90% of the population, but for those of us who love downing beer and belting along with the jukebox, making new best friends whose names you won't remember, or need a place to kill time before returning home up or down the hill, then the Monument Bar might be your home-away-from-groan! I'm always surprised that none of my acquaintances have heard of it, but then again, it IS the kind of place you'd miss even if you were looking for it. if you're headed there from Yucca, when you get to Cactus Mart, keep looking left and DON'T BLINK. When I lived in Morongo Valley I would try to go in at least once a week, because if I've learned one thing in 47 years of gypsy wandering it's that there's nothing like a good locals bar. It's a melting pot to be sure, the place could be full of scary bikers one day, and full of pronoun-defying LGBT's the next, but this, of course, is exactly what makes the place so great, and if you've been going there long enough, you can always take refuge with the regulars.

I could write the next Great American Novel describing the place if I hunch over my keyboard long enough, but I'll try to wrap this up with some "things done right" bullet points:
- daily drink specials
- taco Tuesday, and usually some kind of special on Hallmark Holidays
- outdoor patios (equipped w/ fire pit in the winter)
- a bewildering number of menu items for such a small place, if you're the indecisive type, just get the signature monument burger...and the food is also bewilderingly good for pub fare, and if judged in that context, bump my 3-star rating up to 4.5
- Chad is a great bartender. Treat him well, and he'll return the compliment.

That should do it. I should've made a review years ago, and a recent visit reminded me how remiss I've been, even under new ownership, it was exactly liked i'd hoped it would be...as if a month had gone by and not a year. I <3 this bar!

Vegetarian options: not many, but theres salad, fries, pizza options

Parking: limited paved spaces out front, large dirt lot in back“

“They have a very large selection of spirits. A nice selection of beers on tap but really great service.
I didn’t wait more than a minute for someone to come say “hi”, Carlos was the first to help me. Andre was the next to help. Both were super nice and made my day.
Carlos has been bartending for 17 years and it shows. He has great suggestions on the food menu, and made a perfect cocktail exactly the way it should be.
I’m really excited to stop by on my next stay here. Made my night.“

“Good food with good drink options and great area to hang out and mingle with friends and love ones. 10/10“

“Came in on a Wednesday afternoon. Trevor behind the bar was very welcoming. He talked to myself and my BF. He complimented me on my shirt. Told us about the area. The service was on point and you can't beat a beer with an amazing view price aside.“

“Outstanding every-time we visit. Great Seafood, pasta, lobster bisque and much more. This is our favorite restaurant in Palm Springs and we recommend it as a definite not to be missed. Nothing fancy here, just great food and a comfortable welcoming environment. Enjoy!“

“My knowledge base is one visit on December 23. I found Tryst to be a fun and inviting place. The barter was attentive. It was a mixed (age, gender) and friendly crowd. I am not aware of a food menu and therefore didn’t rate. To me it was a bit more relaxed than the nearby Arenas venues. I’d come back anytime for a drink and chat with friends. Patrons were laughing and having a good time. The “vibe” was good.“

“enjoyed a great evening of dining and entertainment.“

“Visited this bar on a whim and was pleasantly surprised. The bartenders were friendly and took time to chat, recommending a few signature cocktails that were both creative and delicious. The ambiance is cozy yet vibrant, with exposed brick walls and soft lighting. I especially loved their selection of craft beers. Definitely a spot I'll be returning to!“

“Friendly and Welcoming small town atmosphere bar and grill. Great service, food and drinks. Due to both the bartenders who also take your order and serve you. And, their great cook!“

“great music and great food and stuff was really friendly and helpful five stars“

“We were in the area, found this restaurant and decided to give it a try! It looks like a Dive Bar from the outside and when you go inside it still looks like a Dive Bar!

BUT:
The service was great, the food was great and the price was great!“

“Great food, great employees Great with the kids“

“Janna is a darling! We are visiting from Victoria BC and came to the Post 519 in Palm Springs.
Janna made us feel welcome right from the get-go!
Very energetic and so polite. She makes you feel that you are a part of the Legion family. Janna is the reason we kept coming back during our stay! Thank you Janna for having us!“

“Absolutely delicious! We went to Bongo Johnny’s for the first time, and we will definitely be going back! The staff was extremely friendly, and the food was so tasty! It is funny but the atmosphere seems very casual, but the food is something you would expect from a fine dining experience. Thankfully the prices were pretty reasonable! And to top it all off, the music was the best! When we were there they were playing 80s music and we just loved it! Bongo Johnny’s is a must if you haven’t been there yet. You won’t be disappointed! 😋😋😋“

“Live entertainment. Fun night thus far! 😉“

“Excellent service, all staffs are super helpful, beautiful ground, delicious food, nice view of golf course and mountain with outdoor fire lit and outdoor heating. This is a really nice place to go for a relaxing breakfast and very affordable. Pleny of seats. Highly recommend.“

“This is a great place to relax and watch your favorite sports on the big screens while having a drink and a snack or a meal.
They require $30 minimum spending for every person at the table, though.
You will not be allowed to sit inside the sports bar area without buying food or drinks.
The food was decent, and prices were fair.
It’s a little noisy sometimes because the bar is open in the middle of the casino.

Vegetarian options: Some vegetarian options on the menu“

“Amazing dinner of lobster ravioli and cioppino.“
