I don't really do Yelp but I thought this place deserved some love. I've been coming to Hopscotch since it opened. I'm happy to say that this place still holds up to this day. I always get the barrel aged old fashioned or orange blossom. Pair that with the empanadas or tacos (which are absolutely delicious for bar food). I do miss the ribeye and some of the other entree options. Service is top notch. They make some of the best cocktails in the area! Thank you to Hopscotch and their crew. You guys are a neighborhood treasure. read more

Everyone hyped this place up. Idk. I didn't really get it. It was alright drinks. We got Grandma Apple Pie whiskey drink which consisted of bourbon, lemon, cinnamon, egg whites and pear liqueur. And an old fashioned. Neither of them really stood out. And with the price (which again wasn't too bad compared to other areas), it didn't make it any better. It was pretty early in the night when we got here. Around 9pm I believe and it was just starting to pick up. Service felt more like it was 1am and the bartenders energy felt like they were annoyed and over it. The lower bar was closed to a private party and so everyone had to keep to the bar area and outside patio and we were packed in. It's a great list of whiskey. And I would come back during a less hectic night to try the whiskey and chill out. read more

I ordered Waffle Fries, Buffalo Wings, Cajun French Fries, and Cookie skillet The Waffle fries were hot and crunchy, and the curry ketchup compliments the fries well. I wish it came with more fries for the money. The quantity is like a large fry from Chic fil a. The Cajun Fries were hot and crunchy, the quantity was a good and shareable, the only thing I wish was for another sauce. I would recommend to order these over the waffle fries if you have a group due to the size. But if you're ordering for yourself, waffle fries are better. The Buffalo wings were really good, nice big meaty wings, but for the price it should come with at least 4 more. If you are ordering for yourself, I would recommend these. The Cookie skillet came out nice and hot, it tasted really good. It was really good flavor with a nice vanilla ice cream on top. I would recommend to order this if you're sharing this for 2 people. All of the drinks were nice and cold, overall I would recommend to come here. Overall I gave it a 4 star because of the quantity of food for the prices. The ambiance is nice and casual with good music. The service was great and got my food fast. read more

My friend djs here sometimes Friday or saturdays ! So decided to come support (: might be biased but great music and I'm not drinking currently but the bartender still made me feel included when I ordered a cranberry juice or pineapple, they put a garnish for me or a little lime so that it still felt like I was part of the social aspect of drinking. Lots of seating inside and out and the parking isn't too far either. read more

Beer: Hanger 24 Chocolate Bomber Porter - It's rich, smooth, and deeply satisfying. At 8.0% ABV, it delivers a bold kick without overwhelming the chocolatey malt profile. The roasted cocoa notes are well-balanced with a subtle bitterness, making each sip feel indulgent but drinkable. I won't mind if this is my "go-to" when going back. Service: It's pretty straightforward. You walk up to the bar and order your drink. People go around to clear the empty tables, but the place is overall pretty laid back. Ambiance: It's on the darker end for bars that offer an outdoor patio, which many guests prefer. The center of the bar doubles as a dance floor, given the DJ booth that was unoccupied when I was there. I positioned myself in the quieter 3rd segment with tables to sit and chat with friends. read more

Fun little bar in or near downtown Fullerton. Security is on point, which can seem a bit daunting, but it's a pretty chill spot so it's fine. Everything is counter-service, so you do not have wait staff. The drinks were good, the food menu was limited but it's a bar so no big shocker there. Prices weren't cheap, but it's about what you'd expect for the area. $16-$20 cocktails, beer menu was okay but not great. Music gets a bit loud when the DJ shows up, honestly you could probably skip that part since I hate having to scream across the table to have a conversation, but I'm sure it's perfect for the college crowd. read more

Our favorite dish were the bacon wrapped dates. The presentation isnt great but they are sooo good. The hamburger sliders were ok; they were just sliders, no extra flar. The heart attack fries with chicken were good but were overpowered by the chicken. It was more chicken than fries. We are locals and have gone multiple times. The food can be hit or miss but we'll have it every now and then. read more

Nicole the manager was absolutely amazing! I ended up having my pilot graduation party here, super last minute with over 30 people in attendance due to another restaurant falling through on their end last minute. Nicole was so amazing accommodated us with no problem! Was allowed to keep a cake in the refrigerator, put up some decorations, she reserved multiple tables in the downstairs area for us, everyone enjoyed their drinks/food and it had great music throughout the night! We had a wonderful time. I will definitely be recommending others here in the future and will be back with other events as well! Thank you so much Nicole! You made a memorable night for me and my friends to celebrate! read more

Hopscotch hosted our 20 year high school reunion. We couldn't have picked a better venue! We all had a blast! The event coordinator (Nicole) was super easy to work with. She was very accommodating and responsive. She catered to our group's dietary needs and even played a playlist we put together. The bar itself was beautifully decorated for the holidays, and it was very spacious for our group. We loved the overall vibe, the drinks, and the delicious food. Additionally, the staff were all very friendly and treated our group well. We highly recommend this bar for group events! I can't wait to come back! read more

I just don't get this place. I'm guessing it's a late night venue for college kids, because it's always dead when I'm in there. They have a good cocktail program, but the arrogance of the bartenders is off-putting. Like they're doing you the favor. The food menu is a combination of a high school football game snack shack and a Mexican food truck. It always makes me chuckle when I see French fries as an appetizer option on the menu (served with ketchup!). No real entrées to choose from. None of the menu compliments the cocktail program. "I'll enjoy an espresso martini, and an order of nachos please." I'll try this place again when someone who knows what they're doing is running it. read more

Great spot for dinner, drinks, late night bite, date night, hang out with friends or dancing. The place is great with a little bit of everything for everyone. The whisky and mixed drinks and the food was all great and with a very nice variety. The service from the bartenders to the servers to the security/ door staff was also on point. There's all night free parking at the nearby parking structure or at the back parking lot until 9pm. After 9pm you have to pay. read more

Came here on a Friday night around 7pm. We came for a birthday party, the manager was very kind in offering the birthday boy a drink on the house. DJ set was good later in the night. Reason I give Hopscotch 2 stars is my husband has celiac, so he cannot eat gluten. When asking how they can accommodate they could only offer him a lettuce wrap burger for $20. If you have celiac, you know how frustrating that is because not only does a lettuce wrap burger not fill you but it's usually one piece of lettuce on a patty. It is 2024... many people have dietary restrictions and the fact Hopscotch doesn't have options is disappointing. Not sure if we would come back. If you have dietary restrictions do not come here. read more

Hopscotch Tavern is located in downtown Fullerton and it's a really cute bar. I ordered the Strawberry Sunset (Mule Cocktail) and it was pretty good. It was a bit strong for me but overall not bad. I want to try their other cocktails on the menu the next time I go. We sat in the patio area and it was so nice. The bar is very big overall but I would recommend sitting outside on the patio. It's pretty loud inside with all the music but they have seating inside too. The patio was pretty crowded but it was so pretty with the lights and loved the vibes. I would totally recommend hopscotch for a date night or just a gathering with friends. read more

Most of the staff at Hopscotch Craft Beer and Whiskey were polite and professional, which made one server's behavior stand out even more--in the worst way possible. She was extremely rude, dismissive, and openly condescending, acting as if customers were an inconvenience and beneath her. When I asked a simple question about a drink, she clearly didn't want to answer, responded with attitude, and showed zero effort or professionalism. Her behavior was unacceptable and completely out of place in a service industry. One bad employee like this can ruin an otherwise good establishment. Management needs to take this seriously, because no customer should be treated with this kind of disrespect. read more

Had a friend in town and decided to stop in for drinks and dessert before dropping them back off at the hotel; dessert was amazing. Not a lot of options, but so good. The cocktails were pretty good, but I'll probs order a beer next time. Easy parking thanks to the lot behind them and super friendly staff. read more

Can't say enough great things about our favorite Friday night spot right after having a long week at work. Yelp review ratings don't do it any justice . The staff ,Sylvie, X, bar tenders,bar backs and props to the chef for the best shrimp tacos and that's coming from someone that goes to many taco spots . The wings , shrimp rolls ( deliciously buttery), sliders are just some of the great menu items .They have a wide variety of top shelf bottles. The owners are always sooo welcoming and especially their favorite guest our little golden doodle. Our pup also looks forward to Friday nights and can't wait to go just like us . Keep Up the great work !! read more

Came here for the first time and am so upset I haven't come here before. I loved the decorations and the overall vibe. Their drinks were great, their whiskey selection was also obviously AMAZING. I will say, the food did leave something to be desired, it was just okay not anything great. I also appreciated the amount of security guards that were there, made me feel very safe!

We came here recently to celebrate a friend's birthday. It was a fun place that started off more low key but at the night went on, it got packed and crazy. The manager was kind and offered our friend a free drink for his birthday. Pros: *Nice patio area *Able to accept reservations for larger parties *Wide selection of cocktails *Fun DJ set later in the night *The pretzel is delicious as are the Moscow mules. *They have cigars available for purchase. Cons: *The menu is limited for anyone with a food allergy or intolerance. *The menu seemed overpriced for some items. *It gets PACKED as the night goes on, and it's difficult to get a drink from the bar. *The service at the tables on the patio is sub par. *Parking can be limited depending on how busy it is in DTF. Do not come here if you have celiac or a gluten intolerance and you're wanting to eat- you won't have options. I also wouldn't come here for a full meal- you can find something better for a more affordable price, elsewhere. Come for cocktails, apps, and DJ. read more

This place has paid themselves more on tips twice. I budget when I go out and upon checking my statements it is not at all what I signed the total to be with the tip. This place is a scam.

Pretty hip whiskey bar. They were playing 2000s R&B like usher and Mariah but also current R&B artists. They had a throne with a neon sign downstairs, an outdoors with heaters, and indoors with lots of western relics. Something for everyone.

Hopscotch Tavern - Whiskey sour $15 - Bars Near Me - Fullerton, California

I gotta start off by saying, I've always been apprehensive of the Fullerton area. It's never been my area to visit, but when my friend showed me the whiskey and beer, I knew I had to try it out. We visited on Saturday evening around 7pm. It wasn't busy, so we were sat on the patio area fairly quickly. I have a new love for whiskey and didn't know what to try on the menu. I ended up going with the Rye or Die and let me tell you, it did not disappoint. It was a flavorful mixture of coffee and whiskey, which are two of my favorites. With one, I was definitely in a much better mood then when I got there. My friend went with a beee and we ordered the short rib poutine fries to snack on. The fries were really good. I wish they had a larger size of them. Our server Silvi ended up finishing her our shift before we planned on being done, but we closed our tab with her. We were tempted to order more, but the waitress that was covering us after her didn't stop by. That was a bit disappointing, but we ended up deciding to try another local spot. Despite that, I was recommend this spot to any whiskey lover. I definitely plan on visiting this spot again because their wall and selection looked like a dream. read more

Tonight my wife and I came in for her birthday. She ordered a drink that was on the menu, and on the check it was marked as a custom drink and priced higher than the menu price for the drink she got. That's not the worst part; i ordered a one ounce pour of an expensive bourbon and confirmed before he poured it that I could get a one ounce pour. He proceeded to give me a heavy pour, and I said "that's one ounce?" and he chuckled and nodded like he was just being nice and hooking it up. Long story short, the bill comes... What should've been a $50 total was $90. We were both very upset, and since it was a busy Saturday night, we didn't make a scene about it. We won't be back. read more

Hopscotch Tavern - Patio and good vibes. Security is helpful and chill but no funny business - Bars Near Me - Fullerton, California

The food is so bad it's not really worth commenting on in-detail. At a table of six we all got entrées and a few appetizers, and assortment of burgers, nachos, cauliflower bites, sliders. Food was just not very good. And mediocre food at a great tavern is a big miss. Service is fast and friendly, as busy as they were they were always on point with checking in and keeping the drinks going . The beer and whiskey selection is phenomenal. Everybody got something they liked. Would definitely come back for drinks, but would not bother with the food. Music was a little loud and got progressively louder on the outside, but it was a Friday night. The inside did a weird thing where it sort of changed into a "Dancefloor" but nobody was dancing, and there were tons of dance lights and a DJ. Not really my thing, but I'm sure plenty of people are into it. read more

Great customer service, they treated us fairly and the work they do is great! I would recommend coming here if you need a good wash.

Hopscotch is a gem! The old fashioned is fantastic, and the food is exceptional. I'm still craving the sliders and empanadas. We arrived early for appetizers/drinks and left just before the club started around 10pm. Our sever was the only one working the tables, yet she managed to remain attentive and never let our glasses run dry. I really loved the lighting, decor, and rustic feel. Plan on spending over $100 on food and drinks for two if it's not happy hour. read more
