This spot is AMAZING and such a gem. They have some of the best drinks I've ever had and the bartenders are amazing. The place is very detailed and great vibes. Ask for Vince or Nate, their drinks, service, and hospitality are on point 10/10. The PAINKILLER, literally makes the pain go away! PS: "Karens" please stay away. read more

Such a unique and friendly venue. This location is where i first became obsessed with Cosmos. The bartenders are super knowledgeable and approachable. They have such an eclectic bar menu to cater to all types of guests. I personally love bitter sweet, and they had a ton of choices. I love how they allow food in their venue as well. read more

Needed an after work spot to grab a drink and this spot was a good pick. Settled under the stairs on the bottom floor of the Anaheim Packing House, this train car bar has a great menu of classic cocktails and house drink specials. It's got a cool, vintage feel to it and the bartenders put a lot of care into each order. There are tables/seating inside, and a few tiny benches in front next to the entrance to sip your drinks at. It was actually quite hard for the group of us to decide what we wanted. Everything looked great. We settled on a Penicillin; a Paper Plane; and a Lost Luggage. Everything was tasty and came out fast enough, considering you're getting hand-crafted cocktails. They've got wine and beer options, as well as a spirits list Free parking if you can find it in the APH lot. If not, street parking or valet for $8. read more

While on waitlist for The Blind Rabbit, we stumbled across this quaint and hidden bar that's almost like a speakeasy in itself! It's set up like you're inside a train station with a dark and romantic vibe. We ended up getting two rounds of drinks. I had the Paper Plane ($13) and another that was mixed with bourbon and red wine (forgot the name of it). The cocktails are nicely done and quite strong since I was a wee bit drunk afterwards. Great alternative to The Blind Rabbit that's perfect for a date. read more

First time here, was recommended for the drinks and atmosphere. Walking into a boxcar scenery was very cool, music was eclectic, and the drinks....well, they were Most Excellent! The menu had the type of cocktails that we were looking for. The Paper Plane was the perfect way to start off, had some Lost Luggage and moved over to some Dirty Shirley's, and finished with some Old Fashions (Rye was on point). Staff was amazing. The team of mixologists knew how to mix and shake it up. Inoa, Dakota, and Alyssa kept busy the whole time we were there and kept everyone's drinks filled. They did so much in a small busy place. Will we go back??? Hell yeah we will! read more

At the bustling food court area of the Anaheim Packing House, you'll find an unlikely spot for some fantastic cocktails: BXCR (short for Box Car). Like the name implies, the decor is reminiscent of a classic, old-school train car. With that being said, just be aware that this isn't a huge bar at all, and if you come with a large group at the spur of the moment, you may run into some issues as space can be limited. This is definitely a very hip place, but classic at the same time (it looks like the kind of place you would have seen Frank Sinatra hanging out). I really have to give it up to the Bartenders/Mixologists. The place was absolutely PACKED and people were lined up for drinks. They busted out some fabulous cocktails FAST without compromising on the quality. I was truly impressed! My only "complaint," and I really don't want to call it that, is that it's pretty loud. Just keep in mind, the place isn't very large, and you're also dealing with all of the noise from folks walking around the Food Court area. If you want a quant place where you can have long conversations with someone, this may not be the spot for you. If you want to meet a couple of friends, hang out and have some amazing drinks and a good time, BXCR is the place for you. Great vibe, knowledgeable staff who are true artists when it comes to crafting cocktails, and comfortable setting. So if you're walking around Anaheim Packing House and want a nightcap or place to meet a friend for some excellent cocktails, I would give this place a try for sure. read more

Luxe pricing, middling quality, barrel aged drinks taste like poorly executed wells. Lots of casual climate denial chat in there. Good decor, awful drinks, weird people. read more

Finally made it in to this spot and it was an immediate fave. Any bar that can make this classic but crafty cocktails is alright in my book. Caught a seat at the bar and had some wonderful drinks all made very well. New favorite bar for sure!! Great vibes, great drinks, great spot! read more

Fantastic drinks, service, bartenders and a wonderful happy hour. A hidden gem within Packing District, this is my go to spot before a nice meal. Love how quiet it is compared to the rest of the area! And you can bring food in from around the mall. Can't wait to come back and try their newest seasonal cocktail. They also make a fanatic daiquiri! read more

Horrible rude service. They lost our credit card after we paid. When we asked the bartender if she had it, she rudely yelled that she doesn't have it. We asked her to check around and she refused insisted she didn't have it. After going back and looking we noticed it on the floor behind the bar and pointed it out to her. She picked it up and tossed it at us and told us to leave. Her behavior was bizarre and shocking. Not sure how this person is in a hospitality field. I will not return to a place that is so careless with your credit card and rude after they make mistake. The bar should not keep this person employed if they want customers to return. read more

Super cozy cocktail lounge with some deliciously strong drinks! Loved The Big Lebowski (the movie too). I liked that it wasn't served in a martini glass so it felt like you had more to sip on. It's the perfect cocktail to end the night if you're looking for something a little sweet, foamy, and need just a bit of caffeine. read more

Absolute terrible customer service! They overcharged me for two drinks, and at the end of it all we're not apologetic for the overcharging. Funny enough on top of that they lost my credit card. I had to go back and ask the lady do you have my credit card. She said no initially, and then I went to go looked in the area I was sitting and then went back and she found it on the ground in the bar. Then they got mad at me and told me to leave. Do not come here. Don't trust these people absolute terrible customer service! read more

This is a great little bar. Limited seating due to the size of the interior. Drinks were good and the bartenders was helpful in deciding on a drink. She made a great drink for sure. If your looking for a nice small great atmosphere place you have to stop in here. read more

BXCR is a unique, intimate little bar with speakeasy vibes. Located in the packing district, it serves a great selection of wines and cocktails. The interior is designed to look like the inside of a train car with cozy lounges and seating. We absolutely loved the vibe. For drinks, we tried the Hemingway daiquiri and cosmopolitan. The Hemingway was delicious and so well balanced. The cosmo was very well made too. This will definitely be a bar we come back to! read more

Inoa and Alyssa are my favorites. Always treat me so so well and great conversationalists despite a busy Saturday night. The drinks never disappoint. My favorite is their espresso martini - they use a little bit of orange zest that takes their espresso martini to the next level. I've never experienced that somewhere else. The place is a really cute and aesthetic "train car" themed bar. I can't recommend this place enough. Thank you to my favorite ladies!! read more

What a great find! It's located downstairs at the Anaheim packing house. Very limited seating and I think it was a miracle that our party of 3 got spots at the bar. They only offer wine and cocktails, but the cocktails are amazing!! And as a plus, they are reasonably priced. I know there are some reviews saying the bartenders aren't attentive, but that wasn't my experience at all. I'd absolutely come back! read more

Amazing ambience. Fun concept. Intimate setting. Cocktails & wine only. Our mixologist was friendly and quick to make our 4 cocktails even though the bar was packed! I wish the menu was more extensive and there was easier parking at the Anaheim Packing House...but otherwise, good times. Cheers! read more

Cute little bar inside the Anaheim packing house. They have four tables inside the bar and then two outside. The drinks are a little more expensive, $14 for a cocktail. I had the dirty Shirley and it was a little different than a typical dirty Shirley. I really enjoyed it. read more

On the lower level of the APH you'll find a vintage 1920s box car, which is decked out in vintage decor and has, shockingly, a bar. This is a wine and cocktail bar. Now, I know this is a wine society, and they specialize in giving a superior wine experience, but I wasn't in the mood for wine the night I came here so I just browsed the cocktail menu. I decided to order the classic champagne cocktail, since it was both on their menu and on the list of drinks I've been meaning to try. The bartender asked me if I wanted bourbon or brandy, and I was unprepared to answer because I had no idea it was made with either and I don't like dark liquor. I went with brandy because I haven't really tried it, and he asked me, "Are you sure?" "I think I'll be fine," I said as I chuckled, but I had no idea the drink would be absolutely gross. It wasn't the guy's fault, as I'm sure it would have been gross to me either way, but next time I'll just order one without brandy or bourbon. At least it was very strong. I'm really just giving this place a good review because I love the way it looks and the drink was strong for being averagely priced in this food house. I will need to return and order another drink to determine if their drinks are well-made. read more

Favorite local Anaheim bar! What an amazing concept of a box car that is a bar. They have amazing drinks. I always get the penicillin! Tried a couple drinks. They're good and strong. They don't really serve any snacks however, you're in a food market where you can get multiple dishes and or cuisine as you desire. Only downfall is that there's very limited seating, as well as an early shut down, hey after all, we still are in Anaheim! I can't tell you how many times I've tried to squeeze this last stop before going back home but I always am one minute past last call, so then I just mosey on over to the ice cream shop and get a scoop before going home! Definitely a must try if you like a nice specialty drink with a close friend to catch up! read more

Came here this weekend it's the cutest little gem! It's located inside the packing house and it's a must stop by when here.

She whipped up some good drinks for us that we chose. Thank you for such friendly and welcoming service coming back soon! read more

Came here on a Friday afternoon, not busy at all so we sat ourselves by the bar. The two bartenders made the drinks quickly. My husband tried to ask about a drink and they were both standoffish and not very talkative so we decided to close out after the one drink. Both drinks were good, a little too sweet for me personally. Maybe eventually will go back and see if it was just an off day. read more

DAKOTA is the bomb. Super sweet and goes above customer service standards. First time here, and I will definitely will be back because of Dakota. Happen to be there while another couple was there and they were very rude and all they did is complain about everything. There was a person cleaning, which is normal. but this couple found it rude to clean with customers. I COMPLETELY DISAGGRE. Dakota was still engaged in serving and makong site we were ok. read more

This bar has been amazing since I went. I wanted to get the feel of it and went two times. Around the beginning of April , I went on a Sunday and I was attended by a man and a woman. They were both so amazing and made great cocktails. We got the pina colada, cosmopolitan, and a glass of Chardonnay. We spent around 70 for everything. This place is pricey but at that time, the flavor of the cocktails was amazing. They let you bring in food from other places which is cool . The bartenders also had great oldie music, local to Anaheim, playing. It was great music really in theme because the packing house is Anaheim history. I went back another time this past Sunday and there was two women. The cocktails did not taste the same. The cosmopolitan did not have a good taste then the time before! I did drink a pina colada and it tasted like the one I had the previous time. I would recommend that all bartenders know how to make the drinks in the menu the same way because inconsistency is not great especially when someone is looking forward to that same Cocktail. They made a great Moscow mule! However, I did not enjoy the customer service of the two women. One customer came in and ordered a drink. He was given a weird stare and the bartender talked to him very condescending that they didn't make it. Which is not cool given that a bartender can make or break the vibe! It wasn't a good vibe for me and we left after our mules! I will definitely be coming back but verifying who is bartending before purchasing!!! read more

I think we were the first customers of the day and were glad to meet Peter. Peter had a lot of energy and was very helpful in explaining the different drink options available. We decided to go with the Hurricane because it was a hot day and the hurricane seemed to be very tropical. It included passion fruit and a mix of several other rums. I loved them, actually drank the first one really quick and ordered a second which I enjoyed a bit slower. The bar was a bit on the dark side but I really enjoyed the ambiance. You literally were sitting in a boxcar and the bar was really cool. There were also nice booth seating all around with some real interesting trunk style tables. Really good use of space. read more

Solid bar, though it didn't blow me out of the water. I would recommend it! They have great service and decent cocktails. They were also playing pop-punk music, which was a fun Saturday night vibe. The aviation drink smells like a lush bath bomb between the lemon scent and floral flavor. The mai tai was decently strong and fruity. The paper plane wasn't too strong and was well balanced read more
