“A strip mall bar, that is exactly what it should be. Locals at the bar, cheap drinks and a jukebox playing. Will return for the drink prices alone and I'll stay for the good vibes.
Also the beer selection was excellent. Just good ol' reliable classics. Not a whole lot for the beer nerds but this isn't really that kinda place.“

“We actually ended up at Salty Dawg Tavern by mistake because of a mix-up with our plans, but what a happy accident! This place is a total gem that we never would have discovered otherwise.
The food was great, the waitresses were super nice and friendly, and the overall vibe in the tavern was so much fun. It felt like the perfect spot for a relaxed, enjoyable time.
Highly recommend stopping in — even if you find it by accident like we did! We'll definitely be back on purpose next time. 🐶🍻“

“This place is an absolute gem in Costa Mesa. I stopped in for a drink and the atmosphere is exactly what you want from a local spot. It is vibrant, laid back, and full of character.

I really enjoyed the setup. The walls are covered in so many unique stickers that you could spend an hour just looking at them. It makes for such a cool, personal vibe while you enjoy your beer.

Everything was perfect for a relaxing night out. Whether you are grabbing a pint or just hanging out at the bar, it is a great time. I will definitely be back.“

“If you're looking for a true Newport Beach classic, Cassidy's Bar & Grill is one of those places that absolutely deserves a visit. Whether you're stopping in after a day at the beach, bar hopping through the Peninsula, or just looking for a place with great people and cold beer, Cassidy's delivers every single time.

One of the first things you'll notice is how professional and hardworking the security staff is. Tai, Will, Troy, and Saed do an incredible job keeping the place safe and making sure everyone has a good time. They're respectful, approachable, and always on top of things, but here's a friendly piece of advice... don't screw with them. They're there to keep the atmosphere fun for everyone, and they do that job exceptionally well.

The bartenders are just as awesome. Both Dereks and Brian have always treated me like family. They're fast, friendly, know how to keep the drinks flowing, and somehow remember faces even after a packed weekend. Great bartenders can make or break a neighborhood bar, and these guys are a huge reason Cassidy's has built such a loyal following over the years.

And let's talk about the food.

The burgers are seriously underrated. They're exactly what you'd hope for after a few beers, fresh, juicy, cooked right, and absolutely hit the spot. Whether you're grabbing lunch or trying to recover from a long night out, you won't leave disappointed. Voted best in all of Orange County multiple times, dont forget the sauce!

What really makes Cassidy's special, though, is the atmosphere. It's one of those rare bars where locals, visitors, regulars, and first timers all seem to fit right in. The conversations come easy, the staff makes you feel welcome, and every visit has the potential to become another great story.

As the founder of Beerslut, I can honestly say places like Cassidy's have inspired a lot of our blog stories and even some of our clothing designs just like Beachball & Baja Sharkies. It's a genuine neighborhood bar with personality, history, and the kind of authentic Newport Beach character that's becoming harder to find.
Its honestly my absolute favorite for a plethora of reasons.

If you're in Newport Beach and want to experience a real local institution dive bar instead of just another trendy spot, put Cassidy's Bar & Grill at the top of your list.“

Newport Beach and Pier Hamburger •
2116 W Oceanfront, Newport Beach - 11.47 miles

“Newport Beach in my opinion is one of the best beaches for young families. The beach itself is flat, easy to walk on, and continues out into the water. Small waves that run along the beach make it easy and confidence-building for the little ones. Very clean, bathrooms are close, and lifeguards are present and very active. Parking is the only factor that might take a bit. You have to cruise the parking lot to find someone pulling out.“

“Great selection of pool-side food and drinks. The hours are a little limited 12pm - 6pm. Side of French Fries were absolutely fantastic and cost $10. Had a virgin strawberry daiquiri which was from a mix but still was descent. The chips and guacamole plate looked really good. Great way to relax at the Westin poolside and treat yourself to good food.“

“If you are into dive bars, this is a good one. It's actually really chill inside and the patrons that come here are just looking to have a good time and maybe chat with some cool bikini bartenders.
We usually stop in after a game for some pool and drinks and have always had great service and not too long of a wait for a game of pool. Drinks are average to good prices and the girls are quick with the service.
Solid 5 stars for the atmosphere and service.“

“Showed up with my boy who was visiting from out of town. Never been to a lounge or bar in Santa Ana before. This is definitely the neighborhood spot, but they made me and my friend feel like regulars.

Claudia hooked it up with the libations. She made it happen. I mean you won’t get Clase Azul here but you’ll get first class food and service.

I had no idea the food was going to be on point as it was and it surprised me. You expect bar food, but this food is on another level. Fresh made tortilla chips served hot with mouth watering and juicy tacos. I had the asada and al pastor. Served hot and fresh.

Claudia and the chef Josh made it real nice for the experience. I highly recommend if you’re in Santa Ana. It’s dark in there so when we came out the doors at 5p you definitely need sun shades or time to adjust.

It’s a perfect vibe in there. Lookout for the baby giraffe!“
