    Love this cool little local beer and wine bar. We normally stop here when we head downtown for drinks and dinner. This place is great to pregame and it great also to hang out all night. Friendly staff and very clean restrooms. Pool tables and plenty of tv's to catch the game!!

    Coco notorious red ale.  Delicious.

    Great place to hang with my runners. Five miles and a great beer on tap. Ordered a sub from next door. Good prices. Lots of locals. Where have you been all my life? Gabriel was a great host.

    Our new favorite bar! (Beer & wine only) We heard about driftwood from several locals and finally stopped in while we waited for a pizza from next door. Tria the bartender was so sweet and KILLING it! The only bartender and the place was very crowded on a Friday afternoon during their awesome happy hour! *2-7 m-f Very friendly crowd. We came back the next day to have our rainy day brightened again by Tria Just go! You can bring food in and there's a mexi cafe as well as pizza in the complex.

With the windows open, you get beautiful views of PCH and the ocean breeze, while the large TVs make it easy to follow all the action. The beer selection is solid, and the food was exactly what we were hoping for after a long day at the beach. The pretzel with cheese is a must-order, and the fried pickles disappeared quickly from the table. The salads were fresh and flavorful. The beet burrata salad was especially good, and the chopped salad was a classic done well. The real surprise for us was the blackened fish sliders. They were absolutely delicious--light, flaky, full of flavor, and they practically melt in your mouth. The staff was genuinely nice and welcoming. The only downside was that service seemed a little stretched at times. We had to ask a few times for things like silverware, extra plates, and drink refills. Nothing major, but it kept the experience from being perfect. Overall, a fun spot with great food, a lively atmosphere, and one of the best places in Pacific City to grab a drink and watch a game

They were very friendly and accommodating to my dietary needs and modifications. With an extensive collection of alcohols & Liquor paired with an espresso machine at the massive bar, they are willing to make up any drink that you request right in front of you. There was a large dining area with booth and tables, and plenty of room to feast at the bar itself. The owner was present and friendly as well as approachable. He was open to all kinds of suggestions to add to the bars, ambience and entertainment. He let us know that they have karaoke many nights of the week as well as dancing, live music and other events/ parties. We also thought it was cool that the bar is named after the owner's dog. The staff was very friendly and were right there when you needed something. I can't wait to go back and try the tri-tip as I've heard it's legendary. This place is a win in our book. My girlfriend's and I felt very safe and comfortable at this bar and we all feel that this would be a great business to continue and flourish within Huntington Beach. The owner continues to try to accommodate locals and participate in community activities.

I had called because their online reservation system was messed up and kept failing when trying through my phone. Luckily I was at home and could complete it on my computer, but it was an annoying process and I would've been screwed if I wasn't home at the time. Toward the back of Bella Terra close to the movie theater and Cheesecake Factory. Loud and lively atmosphere. Friendly service! You can walk-in, but reservations recommended. There's bar seating and high top tables if you're not in a rented stall. You can rent stalls for varying times. Each rental comes with a bag that includes a baseball, dodgeball (soft foam), football, and soccer ball. I believe you also get one golf club and a golf ball if you want, but if you're there to play golf, bring your own clubs or rent a full set. There are tons of other games to play such as baseball pitching, football precision passing and field goals, soccer penalty kicks, carnival games, darts, and even bocce ball. I'll give them the benefit of the doubt that our kids may have tripped the sensors, but I felt everything was wildly inaccurate. I'd physically hit the targets (ball straight to marker on the screen) and then the game would say I missed by a mile! Frustrating for me, but since my kids are too young to care, they had a blast! Food-wise, we were influenced to go because we got a coupon in the mail for a free cheese pizza with an hour or more rental. We also got ranch chicken bacon sliders (comes with 3), some tots, and 2 beers. All tasted great, but not the biggest servings. The 1-hr rental, food, and drink ran us right around $110 including tax and tip as of Apr 2026, but would've been closer to $125 without the coupon.
