Had such a great experience here yesterday with my son and friends! The staff was helpful, friendly, and attentive the whole time. Everything was clean, welcoming, and perfect for all ages. This was my second time coming, and we’ll definitely continue to return because we all love it here. Highly recommend for a fun family outing or time with friends!

What a great little spot. Full bar, great beer selection, a few games for kids, the food was actually delicious. Sliders were on point. Chicken strips were massive. Overall great hidden spot with no parking fees, friendly staff, and bowling!

I was really disappointed with my experience at Tavern+Bowl Costa Mesa. After a long 12‑hour day, I came in simply looking for dinner and a glass of water before starting my night shift, but the service was slow and unprofessional. Trevor, the manager/bartender, was noticeably rude and unwelcoming from the moment I approached the bar. Instead of basic hospitality, I felt like I was an inconvenience. For a place in a prime location with premium pricing, the customer service should be far better. This experience completely ruined the visit.

Watch UFC pay per view fights here, $5 cover charge. Great ambience. They have the beer I like, Avery White Rascal. Good bacon wrapped stuffed jalapenos. The pretzel is huge and awesome. The chicken strips are average - they're pounded out tenders. The spinach dip is nice and homemade. The Mac n Cheese is good and the cheese sauce is made from scratch. Happy hour until 7pm. Half priced appetizers and drink specials. The pretzel needs honey mustard sauce... here's how to make your own... ask for the following ingredients from your server and mix them together. Half filled side of honey, 2 heaping butter knifes full of mustard, 2 Dijon, 2 mayo. Prefect honey mustard sauce!
