35 Best Cocktail Bars near Oxnard

“Cibo venezuelano!!! Top!!!“

“My friend and I stopped in for the first time as we were walking home from an event last weekend. It's surprisingly very big inside. It's a beautiful little joint. The people were very nice as well, giving us some history of the place.“

“Everything in here is super BOMB 💣“

“VERY very overpriced lack-lustre food. The food took a long time to come out and was not hot. Very sad as we'd heard it was good. Will not be back!“

“love the Owners good feeling dance, music, drinks, play pool New management great..😁“

“Golita sound live music was a hit tonight!!“

“Of all the places to breakdown, my car chose Ventura. Lucky us. I think... While waiting for our rescue, my daughter and I popped into this establishment. After the panic and stress of the preceding hours, I was in need of a cocktail.

The build appears historic, It has a nice patio area in the back and a second back bar. I can see a bad was setting up. We were promptly seated inside. My very tasty Paloma can quickly. We order the artichoke dip and each had a Grilled wrap with chicken bacon cheese and chipotle sauce. Our meals came out immediately after our our appetizer which is alway a small peeve of mine but everything was delicious.

The dip was very rich but yummy. Probably better splitting with 3-4ppl. Our wraps were great and the fries were and interesting twist literally like the thin sliced semi-sprial steak fry. Very good. My daughter thought she ordered sweet potato fries but they were in fact circle chunks of sweet potato. Not what she expected but he menu was accurate. We just interpreted it wrong. The portions were generous as both of us could not eat more than 1/2 of our meal. The table next to us was raving about the Texas parfait.

The manger or maybe owner popped by to ensure everything was good. I could see he was connecting with all guests an effort that means a lot.

Great food, nice beer selection and full bar. I would eat here again 100% if in the area.“

“Had a fantastic experience at Bank of Italy Cocktail Trust in Ventura! The cocktails were exceptionally well crafted, and they definitely don’t skimp on the pours — every drink was generous and perfectly balanced. The chili margarita was a standout: the ideal mix of bold flavor with just the right amount of kick.

Absolutely looking forward to coming back!“

“Fun place to get together with friends“

“Best end of night going out:-)“

“Servers were very attentive/kind, atmosphere was great, and drinks were creative.
Food was good but not much more - mid. Sushi, ramen, and other bites were very middle of the road. Probably best for a late night drink with a bite on the side, but would prefer a highly rated Japanese/sushi place for actual dinner.“

“Latitude 34 is our favorite restaurant (not just in Camarillo). The food is fantastic (lobster bisque, filet mignon, halibut, salmon, ribeye, scallops, sesame ahi, Seabass, Brie chicken, filet mignon bites, chocolate cheesecake are some of our favorites). The servers and the rest of the staff are friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive.“

“Just visiting and I fell in love with the staff. The staff is so nice and has some great suggestions for food places in the area. They make delicious drinks and shots just taste sweeter with how nice the staff are. They have an area in front for smokers and vapors. The place is really clean and thw bathrooms didnt smell. If you are solo you will make friends and if you have a group then your group will grow. I absolutely lovveee this place! I would travel back to Ventura just to see the staff again!“

“Thank you Kevin and the team at Lure for not only serving us a great lunch but going above and beyond to mail me my glasses that I left on our table. Truly great humans here and this will be our forever spot to eat at whenever we drive up the coast again. Thank you! 🙏“

“Karaoke 🎤 with Steve Luke and Joanie 💜“

“Great place!! Love this bar and all the regulars. 🥰“

“When I used to frequent this place, the aspect that I truly appreciated was the speedy service they offered, especially when compared to other establishments. It was often quite challenging to have drinks promptly served elsewhere. Moreover, one of the highlights of visiting this bar was the engaging nature of the customers. They enjoyed interacting with me, striking up conversations, and creating a lively atmosphere“

“Great food ! Very clean food I have food allergies and I never have or with their food-“

“We hadn't been here since before the lockdown, and I was pleasantly surprised. My salad was crunchy and fresh, my salmon was great and the sauteed onion/pepper bed was well seasoned. And of course, the marina views are very relaxing. We'd go back....“

“Had a great experience at Lure Fish House. We ordered the mahi ceviche, spaghetti with mussels in a creamy wine sauce, and the lobster ravioli — and everything was excellent.
The ceviche was fresh and perfectly balanced, the pasta with mussels was rich and flavorful without being too heavy, and the lobster ravioli was absolutely delicious. You can really tell they focus on quality ingredients and proper execution.
Service was friendly and attentive, and the overall atmosphere made it a very enjoyable meal. Definitely a place we’ll be coming back to.“

“We were visiting from out of town, staying at an Airbnb across the street looking for a way to spend the night. The staff here had a way of making the whole place feel like a big, warm common ground place for people of all types. It’s just such an easy-going, wonderful vibe. I was reminded why I love playing pool so much for the first time in a long while, and I've played all across bars on the west coast! It was so cool just hanging out and learning from others who love the game as much as I do. It’s a rare thing to find a place that feels this genuine and welcoming. We’ll definitely be back!“

“Model Citizen exceeded every expectation and made my birthday celebration truly memorable. From the moment we arrived, the service was warm, attentive, and genuinely personal, making us feel like valued guests throughout the evening. Each dish was exceptional—the patatas bravas were unique and perfectly executed, and the pork chop was outstanding, cooked to perfection and full of flavor. The atmosphere strikes a rare balance between sophisticated and welcoming, creating the perfect setting for a special occasion. The cocktail program is equally impressive, with a top-notch bar team crafting meticulously prepared drinks that rival those of any premier cocktail destination. Every detail was thoughtfully handled, and the entire experience felt seamless and special. I’m grateful to the team for making my birthday so enjoyable, and I look forward to returning again soon.“

“Great views , good food! Casual place. \n\nWe wanted to eat by the water. We sat inside but there is also outside seating. \n\nHusband had Ahi sandwich and it was cooked rare, and he said it was good. It was pretty big with fries! I had shrimp and crab quesadillas, they were served with an avocado cream sauce over it and a large scoop of shredded cabbage. Delicious! (2 could split it) \n\nFull bar available too! Place your order and you get a beeper, head over to the bar and order your drinks, pay separate from food. \nGet your parking ticket stamped for free parking.“

“Agradable tranquilo un ambiente tranquilo relajado buen servicio“

“Big ole BRC w/Avocado Burrito $10 includes chips/salsa 👌🏾“

“Everything is perfect 😍 Always I go to the Finney’s in Westlake for dinner 🍲 I love this restaurant 🤩“

“Great teppanyaki food and entertaining chef performance!“

“Great, down-to-earth customers and bartenders! I highly recommend this establishment!“

“We were seated right away, loved the music. The food was great, friendly environment. Recommend this Cafe if you’re hungry 😋“

“Amazing tacos! Its conveniently located on the start of the boardwalk so it was easy access. Prices are very reasonable! I got the shrimp street tacos, which the sauce was amazing. Same for the ahi tacos as well. I will definitely come back if I’m in the area!“

“I love the Westlake location so while in Camarillo for dinner with a friend I recommended Finneys. Whenever I visit the Cali this is on my list of top restaurants. This location is just as nice with indoor/outdoor seating but much larger.

The service and food were both good both good and consistent with the other location. I like that they offer many gluten friendly options so I am not limited to grilled chicken and salad (but they have that too). My must have is the buffalo cauliflower.....SO GOOD!“

“Located on the edge of Ventura’s downtown in the Clocktower Inn, the food and service are great. Good margaritas, solid guacamole, and salsas. If you like super hot salsa request their habanero (yellow) salsa - no extra charge but take it easy! Chicken quesadillas have pulled super moist chicken. Service quick and friendly. Staying at the hotel will garner you a little discount. Good weekday happy hours.“

“Fantastic drinks! Great location!“

“Went in hungry, left hungry! Thought I was going to enjoy lunch out and failed tremendously. To LONG of a wait other people were being taken of before me, I was forgotten and ignored. I paid for my beer and chips as no one would take my order, even when I asked for help, I was ignored.“
