15 Best Bars in Santa Clara

“Perfect for watch parties.“

“Just a little local watering hole, good staff and good drinks, good pricing…
There are some complaints about food prices, but they don’t serve food, sometimes the bartenders bring in free food.
Most nights there is a taco food truck outside“

“Been hitting Normandy House a few weeks while on a temp gig in Santa Clara—in from cowboy country where a solid where a still shot is sometimes mandatory after a long day.

The Pareto thing always cracks me up: 20% of people do 80% of the work, and 80% of the gripes come from the other 20% like some clown reviews here. But everybody here has been super cool to this out-of-towner.

Trin especially—she makes a killer Long Island, best around and always keeps things chill.

Great spot, 5 stars easy. Gonna miss it when I head home.“

“Very attentive staff and delicious food“

“The tamalesis must have and must try! The best corn tamales I ever had in my entire life❤️“

“fast customer service and good food“

“TLDR: Pricey but worth it for delicious Korean food. Service can be hit or miss, ambiance varies, but the dishes are flavorful. Favorites include the Kimchi Bossam and Tteokbokki.

I’ll be honest, this place is on the pricey side, but the food is consistently delicious every time I visit. The only downside is I can’t come as often as I’d like since the cost is higher than most Korean spots. Still, it’s worth it, so just a heads-up if you’re planning to come.

The service can be hit or miss. Sometimes attentive, other times you’ll need to flag someone down. The ambiance is usually laid back, though it depends on the day and crowd size.

Here’s what I’ve tried:
Kimchi Bossam (19 or 21) – Hell yes!
Seasoned Raw Crab in Spicy House Sauce (25) – Messy and complicated, but not the main event.
Tteokbokki – Delicious.“

“Came here for a work event. Had a great time. They have plenty of current and past song selections. The aesthetic is very cool. It's like space with black lighting. My only issue was the ventilation because it got real hot with our group room and we had to constantly open the door to fan out the heat. We brought outside food from Jack in the Box and ordered alcohol.“

“I like this taproom at the Whole foods market because it's close to my office and offers a wide selection of beers on tap at a reasonable price especially with the pitchers. You can order food at the bar, or just buy some from the market and bring it over to eat.“

“The Hut has the best Tri tip sandwich I’ve ever had. The pulled pork and pulled chicken sandwich is to die for!! The French fries are always yummy😋you really can’t go wrong with any thing on the menu ! My son loves the baby back ribs. The Hut is a warm , friendly, fun , place do dine!! The service is always great!!“

“Great staff, clean and comfortable rooms, and quiet with nice balconies“

“EVERYTHING! Great place. Good food and the staff ROCKS!“
