DO NOT GO HERE!!!! As a female, I felt very uncomfortable. The bartender was flirting with me as I was with my boyfriend. It was very gross and disrespectful. The entire staff was very rude to us and they had awful customer service. Coming from out of town It had made me feel as if I had ruined one of my vacation nights. If you're from out of town, I would recommend the Laka Nuki bar that's in the village. That's the place to be. Don't waste your time and money here!!! read more

If you're looking for a great bar with great drinks after running the slopes, Clocktower is the place. Strong drinks, friendly atmosphere, jukebox, foosball, and pool. We got here at 7:30pm on a Saturday, only a dozen or so people here, and before 9 the place was packed! Great atmosphere, will definitely return next time we're in Mammoth! read more

I wish I could leave negative stars because this place deserves them right now. Granted, I've been a huge fan of this place for the last 2 or 3 years after their Christmas time screw up. Right now Im still dumbfounded by the lack of poor service I just experienced. My wife and I walked in there hoping to get the usual great deal with happy hour drinks and specials that we've become accustomed to when instead we got bar people that literally told us to go pick up our own food from the window after our buzzer went off (something that should only be used to claim your seat at a B.J.s or somewhere similar) at the bar. So, we ordred an order of Calamari each at $8 which is still a pretty good deal even though they went up $3 in a year and now cut them into strips as opposed to squares (which I really enjoyed). When they were ready we were notified via a buzzing coaster in front of us at the bar right in front of the female bartender. I looked at her thinking that she was going to go get our food, instead of that she looked at us and told us to "go get our food from the window, firstly do we want to "add" anything to our order". Is this some kind of new Mammoth thing where they make their patrons who are tipping get their own food and drink ? WTF ??!! We were at Mammoth Brewing Co. earlier and they sent us to the water station even though we were buying 2 entrees of food when we asked for water at our table (why even ask us how we're dking then ?). "Oh, the water station is over there asshole, thanks for the 20% tip that we made you sign for before you even knew what the service would be like" They make you tip there before you've even had your service. Back to the Clocktower thing- there were about 4 other people at the bar when the barstaff told us to walk to the kitchen ourselves and get our own food (Im assuming expecting a tip). Ive never felt so degraded as a customer as I did tonight. These people dont deserve their jobs if they are making their customers do their work for them. Fucking bullshit. read more

Wow, snubbed by the bartender last night. I guess because I wasn't a local. That's ok I took my tourist dollars somewhere else.

We stopped here for happy hour. Good prices on food and drinks. This place has a local feel to it. Service was okay. We decided to stop in again around 10 pm on a Saturday night. The place was packed! Couldn't get up to the bar to order a drink. But if you're looking to hang out and meet people, it's worth checking out. read more

I've never waited so long at a bar to get a drink . EVER. I had cleavage and red lipstick on . Don't get it .

Always a fun place to hang out when we come to Mammoth! Great beer, friendly staff, pool, and just a mellow vibe. This time, I tried a blue moon peach ale that I'd never heard of before, but it was so good! They have a great variety of beers and it usually gets pretty packed, so come somewhat early if you're hoping to grab some seats or play pool. read more

Never seen so much whiskey in my life. Lots of new stuff for those looking to switch it up. Authentic environment. Only problem was the seating on a Saturday evening. Get there early and reserve a little space for your buds. read more

Did not eat here, but always enjoy the drinks (great pours of Jameson from the bartender) and atmosphere. Foosball and great music on the juke box!!! read more

Clocktower! goodtimes. Beer and wine only but always good fun. Definitely a local hang out. Next time you're in town check it out. Only downfall is the early last call. Like 11 pm they are done! read more

This is definitely the "hippest" bar in Mammoth...in a good way. They are primarily a whiskey bar and have just about everything you could ever want in that regard. They have a small selection of other spirits and good beer as well. It is downstairs in a basement and seems to be a pretty good escape from the overly touristy-ness of the bars in The Village even though it is located right across the street. read more

Had a great St. Paddy's day here, free t-shirts to the first 100, $6.50 for corned beef and cabbage and they had Guiness and Murphy's stout! Right next to Burgers' across from the village. Huge beer selection, pool table, foosball tables, stools and one very long picnic table. More of a local hang out with out all the old ski's and snowboards bolted to the walls, we already know what Mammoth is about. The place to hang out after skiing/snowboarding ( read more

What a fun pub! My husband and I were staying above the pub in the Alpenhof Lodge, and one of the best parts of our stay was hanging out here. They have loads of beers on tap and even more available on the menu. The staff was really friendly and we had a lot of fun chatting with them and learning about the area. They also have a fairly extensive menu of pub food, and my husband and I enjoyed the tater tots. One of the best parts was how inexpensive the bar was. Beers and other drinks are very reasonably priced, as is the food. For Mammoth visitors who want to visit someplace relaxed and friendly, I would recommend the Clocktower Cellar! read more

Not a bad little spot but the beer selection was a little subdued for 26 taps. I might stop in again when I'm in the mood to sit in a basement bar and have a G&T. read more

Lowkey one of the best burgers in Mammoth...no joke. Try it! Also if you're trying to get a beer but don't want to hang with the 10:1 dude ratio at Lakakooki or max out your credit card this is your spot. bonus tip - enjoy the years of confiscated fake IDs in the corner table by the foosball... read more

We love this place! It's always fun, even in shoulder season, and has a good crowd! We love playing pool here and it's a good place to watch the game! We especially love Ryan, the bartender, he's amazing and so kind and is such a gentleman. He defiantly watches over all of the ladies and makes sure everyone is safe and treated respectfully and as women we definitely appreciate that!! Definitely recommend this place for your local dive bar! One of our favorite spots in Mammoth for sure! read more

Super cool bar at the hotel we're staying at! A down side was waiting an hour for the food we ordered. Definitely love the ambiance and the staff though. read more

If your looking for a place that's just a bit off the path with a cool local (less trendy vibe) you've found it. Big props for them having a nice selection of beers and even some rare Belgians. I'd venture to say this isn't really the place you go cruzing for 'snow bunnies' - maybe try the more commercial Auld Dubliner for that. This is the place you go with your buddies to chill and have a few beers. read more

Megaportions! Totchos is the definition of drunk food.

Came here from LA.. Got fish tacos and god awful . Definitely a dive bar and only good for drinks not food .. Have fun and drink but no food read more

The friendliest pub/bar in Mammoth Lakes! Every time I go to the Clocktower, I meet friends that I never knew I had. The selection of real ale is top-notch, and if you're a whiskey drinker, this is Nirvana. I met the owners tonight, and they are down-to-earth locals who are just as quick to roll up their sleeves and change a keg as they are to make sure that I'm having a good time, a good pint, and a good meal. Sitting down here is like sitting down in your local pub...a Mammoth experience not to be missed. read more

The best bar in Mammoth!!!! Great selection of beer and whiskey and real bar food!!! Not a high end decor but super comfortable.

Cheap beer, and the owner is a really nice guy. Beat of all it's not a tourist trap. Good juke box and the beer variety is awesome!

Favorite bar in Mammoth. No douchey kooks or yups found at many of the other "establishments" in town. Great beer selection if you're a connoisseur and they got they likka license this past year and now have a decent selection of good whiskeys and scotches. Always good punk rock on the jukebox and pretty attentive bartenders. Definitely a local bar without the cocky "local" elitist vibe. Fun times at the pool table and lotsa good drunk memories stumbling home from the Clock back to ze ghetto. Werd it up peoples! read more

Great local bar in the heart of Mammoth. This pub is located is an awesome basement venue. They have a great selection of beers on tap and an especially good variety of whisky. The food was ok. This is a great place to go with friends they have pool and darts. read more

I received information that freeskier.com was conducting a contest for best apres ski bar and saw the Clocktower Cellar was being currently rated as 4th best in North America. My girlfriend and I decided to try it that day to see what was garnering all of the votes and were definitely impressed. Their 4 to 7 pm happy hour prices were very reasonable and both food and drink portions were ample. We shared the fried calamari and fish & chips which were especially good. We were also fortunate to catch Alex bar tending and would recommend you try to visit when he's there and sit at the bar as he is very friendly and interesting. If you like whiskey, Alex is an expert and will steer you toward some excellent values if you ask. Alex currently works Tuesdays and Sundays. read more

What a fantastic collection of whiskeys! Def a great dive bar in Mammoth Lakes. Thanks to the fella from the Mammoth Brewing Company for directing us here. read more

We came in on a Monday night and were surprised to see it so busy but after our encounter with Dave and Aly, it all made sense. They were both working behind the bar and beyond accommodating; friendly, hospitable and knowledgeable! If you come to Mammoth you need to come to Clocktower and I hope Dave and Aly are working! read more

Great beer selection and reasonable prices. Awesome bartender. Excellent place for locals or travelers who don't want the yuppie scene. I would give them 10 stars if that option was available. read more

Said they ran out of food at 6;30 pm Sunday so real disappointment .. We're staying at the Alpenhof so I thought we were set up guess not

Great happy hour menu, $1 pool tables, jukebox & good beer. Nothing fancy just a place to chill & play pool. The bourbon stout is balanced & strong read more

Great little bar/pub right across the street from the Village. A popular locals spot (and you know if they go there it's for a reason). Kinda small but I would prefer to call it cozy. They have several flat screens, foosball tables, and a pool table for additional fun, plus an older (but working) jukebox machine (25 cents/song). Since its down in a basement it can get really hot and stuffy, especially if the bar is full, so dress accordingly! Tons of whiskey options. If you're hungry, be sure to order the Totchos...you'll see why ;) read more

Recommend going here for a drinks (beer and whisky shots) and snacks on the side, but not dinner. "Locals" atmosphere, excellent dive bar deco. Food so-so. Shoestring fries were well cooked with a fresh-potato taste. Fish (listed as "cod") had a fishy taste that indicated it wasn't very fresh. Truly comprehensive whisky list. read more

Great local bar. Real good beer selection. Good vibe, good music, fair prices. Much less foo foo then the village.

Fun and welcoming vibe, affordable drinks for the area, and good happy hour specials. Had a good time playing their foosball and pool tables. Would go again. read more

This place is awesome! Relaxed atmosphere and amazing bartenders.
