50 Best Bars near Seal Beach

“Great atmosphere and great service. The Shuffle Board Table is really fun to challenge your friends.“

“We called in today early to try catch the football from the minute we sat down we was made to feel so welcome and that was both from biff behind the bar to all the locals that came in 😁 thank you for making our last morning in California so good Sean & Jo“

“Had the grilled fish sandwich. It was a nice piece of the catch of the day. It was grilled perfect. It was placed on a fresh roll with lettuce, tomato, onion and a very good sauce. It was served with fries. We upgraded it to truffle parmesean fries. They were delicious. Our server was very good. The food came quickly. We will go back!“

“Truly the most disgusting linguine and clams I’ve ever had. The clams and pasta were over cooked. On top of it all your menu listed every ingredient except the cream. I hate any dairy in my seafood. As do ALL. Italians. Most dissatisfied and disappointed. What do you expect from a seafood joint named “Walt’s”. Never again.“

“one of a kind for a scooner of beer, picked egg and the best special sandwich.“

“Good and friendly service. Good food. The best craft beer“

“this is hands down the best bar in the region. it’s not even close. i have worked at places with michelin guides, a dozen + james beard awards, and everything in between, so i like to think i know a good bar from an average one. baby gee is the real deal!“

“I absolutely Love Love LB Unified Bar & Lounge. If your looking for an amazing time with great music, great people, delicious food - a place to meet and network with entrepreneurs, business owners and the like- this is the place to be!!! The owner Chuckie Miller knows how to make sure everyone has the Best time!! Drinks/ Sports/ Music/ Conversation!!“

“I have to admit, I wasn’t expecting the food to be this exceptional. And that is because sometimes chain establishments are not great. However, Camille suggested a couple of dishes for us and they did not disappoint and in fact I would’ve licked the plates if it was publicly appropriate. I highly recommend the biscuits and gravy and short rib hash!!!!! Omg so delicious!! I can’t wait to come back for more!!!“

“Johnny’s Saloon never disappoints the customer service here is top-notch, everyone treats you like family from the moment you walk in. And the pizza? Easily some of the best I’ve ever had. Perfect crust, amazing flavor, and always fresh. I live up in North Orange, but I still make the drive down as often as I can because it’s just that good. Whether you’re coming for a chill night, great vibes, or that unbeatable pizza, Johnny’s is the place to be.“

“Excellent service. Excellent food. Definitely returning. Thanks!“

“Always have a great meal at Simmzy’s. I had cauliflower tacos and they were excellent (and I’m not a vegetarian). Sweet potato fries were great. I’m the past I’ve had the chicken tortilla soup- it’s one of the best! Pet and child friendly.“

“Amazing food and amazing service.“

“Wonderful barstaff . Lovely place to chill and sup a few G&T’s“

“Lovely experience here, both the little grocer and bar/restaurant side were delightful with a warm atmosphere. All the staff members were friendly and informative on the menu. The sandwich itself was delish and I wish I lived here to try more of the menu. Appreciated the fact that this place feels like a true community center/3rd space, with regular stopping in to say hi and people coming during the day for a drink and work. They also host events, which i think is an important factor of any neighborhood bar.“

“Best venue in Long Beach! Kindly keeping the local music scene alive and taking great care of musicians while still maintaining respect for the neighborhood full of family’s. Free music 7 days a week. I really don’t know how they do it. Coined the “CBGB” of Long Beach. If you like good music and good people this is the place for you ❤️“

“Great to meet you Mike! Wonderful food & drinks! We will be back!“

“Reviewed this place on yelp as well! I come here almost every night and adore it. Truly feels like a second home (with a lot more booze- lol) If you get to meet the bartender Kat you’re in for the best time. I’ve adored her since the minute she started there. I haven’t seen her as much lately- hope that changes. Other than that, this place is truly the best local bar in Orange County.“

“it has been many years since I have been there but it was a great place with their three or four times when I was stationed on the USA USS New Jersey“

“Fun Karaoke with a cash only bar, great drinks -friendly bartenders.“

“Great good and drinks. Great happy hour and weekly specials like Wine Wednesday. Friendly and welcoming.“

“Great live music. Cool outdoor area.“

“Fun place bartenders are nice, They host Pool league and a Dart league several nights a week dart players are older folks who can be slightly rude but otherwise fun place for any night of the week they have TouchTunes jukebox that has an app you can pick almost any song you can think of it's fun“

“Every time I’ve been at Black bar a very enjoyable experience, it has a wonderful selection of whiskey which I drink. They have wonderful, creative cocktails that I’ve tried and never been disappointed. The pizza is wonderful as well. Please try it. The ladies who run it are very hospitable And will bend over backwards to make your time there something to talk about. Very talented and charismatic bartenders as well.“

“Would recommend getting food elsewhere like Mike's but I've been coming here since 2014, it's my number one bar to chill and enjoy a couple rounds of billiards. Love the owners and the bartenders, shout out to Cass, Eric, Tess, and Monique. Will continue to be a patron for as long as they stay open.“

“Great options of Pizza and amazing gothic/ horror atmosphere“

“Always a good time at Campus!“

“The atmosphere is popping here! Excellent DJ, very welcoming people, and good vibes. The only downside is that it is a very small place for the number of people that arrive; no dance floor, only one pool table, and hard to order a drink because of the very crowded bar. However, it is a very good spot for the Black community and for anyone, of course. Everyone was so happy to be here. This was my first time visiting, and I am confident I have found a new local to hang out at.“

“Hands down, Smog City is the best beer and customer service in Bixby. A great chill spot to hang out. All their beer tenders are amazing, knowledgeable, and friendly. They take care of their customers, the other vendors, and treat everyone like their family. They have a large rotating selection of beer, with year round favs and seasonals.“

“Very cool bar with gorgeous views. Great spot to host an event. There’s a bar outside as well as one inside. Loved the outside area—it’s large enough for a good sized group and so lovely being up so high with didn’t views from each side. Definitely check this place out. Valet parking at the Fairmont Hotel as well as metered street parking and if you don’t mind walking a few blocks, you might find a free parking spot.“

“A diamond in the rough! The very best dive bar in S. Ca. It's just a fun place.“

“Enjoyable atmosphere, tasty pizza and friendly staff. A little concerned over consistency in the kitchen, however. A few weeks ago I ordered a Caesar salad and was blown away by the quality, especially the dressing.

Ordered the same salad on my next visit and it was awful. By the time I got to the bottom of the bowl the lettuce left behind was soaking in a soupy nearly flavorless dressing that did not come close to what I experienced the first time. Probably gonna stick to the slices here for food.“

“Great place , strong drinks , dive bar atmosphere, very clean restrooms, this place had it all and I’m glad I found it .“

“I had a good time Met someone I used to work with And it seem like you had a conversation with everybody in there“

“To John Hansen, My wife and I would like to thank you for such a lovely evening. Chez Bacchus represents the “True Expression of a Dining Experience”. Starting with the welcoming staff at the entrance. John, your hospitality is the beginning of the joyful experience. The restaurant is so elegant. We enjoyed the vaulted ceilings with wood beams. We enjoyed the large window at the kitchen area so you can see the Chefs at work. We got to sit next to the impressive wine rack display. The restaurant’s ambiance wouldn’t be complete without the soft background music. Our waiter, Issac, was a delight. He provided us with his expertise in choosing our wines, appetizers, entrees, and desserts. It was a pleasure to meet to give special thanks to the Chef, Danny Le and Su Chef, Donald. Their expertise is why we had an amazing and delicious dinner.“

“The Wrigley Tavern is an up and coming venue that promotes jazz music and a very hip vibe!“

“Just went to blondies yesterday! Saturday night around 9:30 pm. It's a nice bar! More standing space than seating. There is outside seating but it was taken up when we arrived there and it didn't seem to free up by the time we left.Age range is millennials, maybe some college students.Music is a bit loud if you are trying to have a conversation, but overall its fun! They got games playing and I think you can have lil birthday gatherings there? There was a small birthday hang out when we were there which was really cute.Overall, good bar, would come back.“

“Great little place it's kind of small though wish it had a bigger dance floor, and they need to serve food other than that great bartenders great drinks great prices in the heart of Naples near Belmont shore I like to go here after I go to the beach in the summer. Great jukebox and you can hear people talk in there.“

“Grilled Chicken pesto sammie was yummy....everything was!! Terrific service too...Thx Ryan...good fun!“

“Love this place. It's a "jewel of the nile" dive bar when it comes to Beach Blvd. Gorgeous women and great service go hand in hand at the Green Girl! Mark this location on your map and stop by! I would recommend checking this place out if you like dive bars. I haven't tried any food from here so I can't rate it.

Parking: Big parking lot across the street plus street parking too.

Wheelchair accessibility: Handicapped parking is available“

“Great service! We had a great time considering it was my first time in a bar in a very long time.“

“Nice place to hang and watch a band. We went Saturday night 11-9-2024 to see the tribute band Live Forever a tribute to Oasis and what a show so good the singer nails it it was like Liam was right there in the flesh. The bartenders are top notch very attentive always making sure you don't have an empty drink. And they know How to pour and me she drinks properly. The owner is a cool guy and old skate boarder he's not that old but he was telling me about the bad it's a family business very cool guy. Its a fun hang all the people in there were nice. The band that night WOW great tribute to Oasis. I hope the GOOD BAR has them back. Go and support this Bar our small business owners need us.“

“the bartenders are amazing always good vibes and great peaple“

“Great food my new favorite place...“

“(Translated by Google) It was nice, I had never visited one of those places, but it was nice there I met the father of my 2 babies 4 years ago!!!!(Original)Fue lindo, nunca había visitado un lugar de esos, pero fue lindo ahí conocí al papá de mis 2 bebés hace 4 años!!!!“

“Nice place to enjoy with friends & family . Too bad it closed down in LB“

“Alcohol free Safe serene place with awesome vibes!
I like that they do NOT serve kratom .

Place has a special place in my heart…I been coming here for 7 years initially found it as a spot to decompress while raising my daughter on my own. She’d nap to the ambient music and color with crayons while I enjoyed my kava. It’s been a place that’s provided me more than a relaxing beverage.
Through my darkest times and brightest celebrations to is place has always provided the strongest and best kava and much love. Thank you Avi, Rosa, Josh and now Kaya!“

“Cool place to play pool. I’ve never seen it crowded here and the pool table has always been free when I have come in. The service can be a little rough, bartenders aren’t super efficient so it might take a second for them to acknowledge you and serve you a beer“

“Great place to hang around“
