Love this neighborhood bar -- but the real secret is in their amazing menu. My personal favorites are the short ribs, chicken Caesar, Brussels sprouts, sausage rolls... ok, so everything I've had I've liked. The atmosphere is warm and inviting. All the people I've met who work there have been pretty laid back, genuine, and good at their jobs. I love coming here for brunch, night out with the girls, a quick or slow drink... and I'm sure it's great for date night If you made it this far through the review... next time you go in, make sure to give John the bartender a hard time. :) read more

This place has an excellent selection of whiskey and the food is also great. The bartender we had was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable

Great atmosphere and good drinks. Food is hit and miss, but usually more hits. Live music can get a bit loud in the small space, but great spot to enjoy a Friday and Saturday night. read more

Just had a wonderful evening here. Great unique cocktails, yummy fresh food with lots of variety, super comfortable seating, lively music and most importantly, super friendly and attentive service by Angelique. Loved it so much plan to come back tomorrow to try something else and enjoy more music! read more

Nice atmosphere, pleasant staff, good beer selection and most of the food was good. The reason I am giving this a three star is because three of us ate the crab cake sandwich and it was pretty fishy tasting. My grand daughter woke up vomiting during the night and my husband and I have really bad stomach aches this morning. We were the only ones in our party to eat crab cakes, so obviously the crab cakes were not fresh and made us sick. Why a restaurant would risk making their customers sick by serving un-fresh food is beyond me. We will not be eating here again, and cannot recommend this place for food because their food standards are not high enough, but if you want good beer this place is good. read more

First time here, loved the food. Can't go wrong with charcuterie and the stuffed shrimp was great! Service was even better. Johnny needs a raise! read more

Our go-to date night place for the past 8 years. Food, drinks, service, live music all on point. Start with Poutine or Brussels Sprouts and a tasty cocktail from their seasonal menu. read more

Fantastic atmosphere and pub setting for a relaxing day chill or evening out. Brunch was great, benedicts were cooked perfectly. Service was kind and attentive! read more

The food & drinks are good here. But, for the cost of the food & drinks, the least they could do is run the AC when it's 92 degrees outside. The place is a sauna. Won't be coming back during the summer months. Also, no toilet paper or paper towels in the women's restroom & it isn't even busy. *smh read more

I love this place best food clean best customer service I recommend it to everyone in my life

OMG! Yes, it's a bar/pub/sports bar BUT they have a fabulous chef. They also serve sandwiches on Amarosa rolls -if you're from Philly you know that means AWESOME SANDWICHES. Try them & you'll thank me We ordered the Short rib & mash- the meat was tender & not at all greasy. The mashed potatoes was made from redskin potatoes and was delicious, as was the gravy. The carrot strips were amazing-and they were a side. We also had the chicken and mashed potatoes and those thighs were delicious, as well as the mushrooms and gravy. Ask for Amber, she's a great server & knows her stuff (plus she's from near Philly). read more

Came on Wednesday for a dinner meeting and it was great! Came before my colleague to have dinner and boy was it the best burger and fries I've had in awhile! And the desert was absolutely divine! A lot of care is definitely put in the entrees and deserts! I'm glad I came here! Everyone is so kind and welcoming. Wish more places had the same attitude. The sous chef stopped by to check on me! I've never felt so cared for at a restaurant! Definitely coming back with friends! read more

Solid pub for good beer and food. The house burger is legit. I'm a bit of a burger snob and this one passes all the requirements! There's plenty of outside seating. I'm hoping they bring back the steak and cheese. It was delicious as well. read more

I went for brunch here because an Irishman invited me, so I assumed that must mean it's authentic and good. And it did not disappoint. Their servings are monstrous and at first I wasn't sure I could finish it, but somehow I figured it out. I had the Breakfast burger and that thing is a beast. A fried egg on a burger with a pretzel bun is the perfect combination. Honestly every burger should have a pretzel bun like this one. I can't wait to go back for more. read more

Pub Thirty Two - Breakfast burger is a beast! - Gastropubs Near Me - Mission Viejo, California

Heads up everyone - Thirty-Two Elite Catering is off to a great start. I am so happy to have had my 65 birthday party catered by them and they did an amazing job. Lauryn made each guest feel welcome with a glass of champagne. Paul and Chef put on a great spread. And it was reasonably priced for 21 of us. Couldn't have been happier, can't think of a thing that would have made it better. read more

So I went here twice, the first time it was amazing, my friend took me for my birthday and our server was so sweet, she did nothing but make our experience wonderful and gave me a free dessert. They were out of most of the cocktails but she was able to do the spicy peach cocktail not spicy and did the brussel sprouts not spicy either. She was absolutely fantastic and the atmosphere was so nice. I decided to take my husband there for his birthday a month later, I made a reservation, said it was his birthday and asked for a quiet table in the back. We got there and they put us at a table kind of in the middle but it was still fairly loud, our server that night told us we couldn't have the brussel sprouts without the jalapeño, I told him they had done it before but he said no, they were out of many of the cocktails that night too so I asked if I could get the peach not spicy like before, he said no because it was pre made, I asked if he could check, he came back and said they were out of the peach anyway. I asked him if that happens a lot and he said yes and he was about to quit, He was not happy to be there and did not make our experience a good one and it was my husbands birthday, he was nice enough but just very lackluster. When it came time for dessert I asked my husband what he wanted for his birthday dessert but we were still charged for it. We were not charged for my birthday so I found that to be strange. Also the bread pudding this time was covered in caramel unlike last time and was way too sweet. The food was good but service and ambiance this time wouldn't make me want to come back and the food is pretty pricy for what it is. My husband had the chicken piccata and he loved it and the fish and chips were good and the sausage rolls, the watermelon cocktail was ok and the basil cocktail was good, the peach margarita the time before was fantastic, I also had the short rib the time before which was great as was the brussel sprouts. I e mailed the restaurant about my experience before I posted this review but did not hear back. read more

We went here around 1:30pm mid-week. Not too crowded. We ordered Sausage Rolls, Texas Chili, Shepherds Pie, and a House Salad. There were 3 adults and we split the dishes. The Shepherds Pie was excellent, the Texas Chili, Sausage Rolls and House Salad were great. I would order them again. The service was ok. The pub is very rustic and looks much like some of the Pubs I visited in England. Parking was good. If it gets crowded, there are lots of parking places within the center. My family has been going here and loves this place. Every time I mentioned it to people, they already knew about it. Very popular; especially the Shepherds Pie. We all had a great time, great food and will return again. Glad I found it. Pretty cool pub! read more

Went in for date night on a Friday. Wasn't packed and was a cozy environment. Johnny THE SERVER gave great recommendations and conversation. He was very attentive and great server. We had the wings to start, my bf had the burger and I had the fish and chips. To finish had the pumpkin cake. I wish I had gotten photos. All were delicious and would order the whole meal all over again. Quality overall was excellent and exceeded expectations. Very good craft beer selection as well. We're very happy to have found this little neighborhood gem. Can't wait to eat our way through the rest of the menu! read more

First time here- read the reviews and decided to try. We were very happy with food, drinks and service!! We came in for appetizers and drinks. We ordered the scallions, crab cakes and poutine. DELICIOUS Coming back soon. read more

I had the best experience with the bar tender Johnny. I asked for a house cab and my fiance a Guinness. He was so nice and kept up small talk with us. Which is so nice considering it was our first time here. He recommended the Poutine Fries. Such a sweet face and nice person. He also said he's a waiter so we'll definitely come often. One of my new favorite places. read more

Another tale of 2 restaurants... the menu is well thought out and has a well rounded assortment. Some items are fantastic like the Brussels sprouts with bacon, the con dog thingys, the short rib all good. The hamburger is blah and boring so skip that... the French fries are just as boring.. no special seasoning no vinegar just blah. Service is good and the place is welcoming and inviting. read more

Went here a few times. Menu is very healthy/organic centered, which is nice. All food seemed to be organic and raised in humane conditions. The only catch is that the prices are quite high. That's why I'm not sure if I'll return, the price was honestly just a bit much read more

I don't even know where to begin. We have been coming here for years. And always had amazing delicious food and exceptional service. Tonight we came for our anniversary, one last time before we move out of state. We were thoroughly disappointed. Our waitress seemed to hate her job. Not only did we have to ask her to bring waters twice, we also had also ask her to bring salt and pepper twice. then we had to wait 20 minutes to receive our bill. she threw the bill on our table towards us. We were there for a Valentines dinner there a year ago & sat outside, and had the best experience ever. the food quality also has gone downhill. My husband ordered the shepherds pie and had to send it back because it was not seasoned. Are Buffalo Wedge seemed to have shredded cheddar out of a bag. I spent $27 on a piece of salmon with minimal vegetables and no grains or carbs & a tasteless coconut sauce. And I believe the other sauce used was the Trader Joe's sweet chili sauce... We understand times have been tough. But we don't really have much to say about our last experience at a place that we used to love, and frequent often. read more

We've been to Pub Thirty Two quite a few times. It never fails to impress me! The cocktails are fun and delicious and the food is amazing. We got the miso crusted salmon and the pesto gnocchi this last time and it was fantastic! The duo musicians playing were a nice addition to our night! A great place with consistent service and food! Well done read more

My friend and I opted to get late night drinks. We found that Pub Thirty-Two had late night happy hour. We ordered a couple drinks to start. I had the Bourbon sour and she asked for a beer on draft. We weren't really hungry but I don't like to drink without a snack so we ordered the Zombie Fries ($8) off of the HH menu. I'm not sure what they were doing in the kitchen but the fries took forever to come out. The couple next to us who sat down after we ordered, got their food before we did. How hard is it to make fries? These fries were good. They were double fried and had a layer of melted cheddar on top. Granted, they could have come out sooner but at least they didn't forget about us. The drinks were good, and they make craft cocktails, so definitely a nice spot to grab a drink with a friend. There were some guys next to us at the bar who decided to order shots for everyone, including my friend and me. We didn't want to feel indebted to them, so we paid for our own shots; thank you very much. The place was fairly empty when we arrived and became even emptier when we left, but then again, it is Mission Viejo folks. 3 stars. read more

Great place if you want some good food and good drinks. I came on a Sunday afternoon around 1:30pm and the place was not crowded. They had 5$ bottomless mimosas and 5$ bottomless bloody Mary's for an hour. Or group got the bottomless mimosas. I ordered the Irish hash breakfast for my entree. The food was good, the only thing I didn't like on the plate was the black pudding. The beans were probably my favorite thing on the plate. I'm usually not a big fan of beans, but boy were they good. I also tried some of the chicken fried steak from a friend and it was also delicious. It's only 15 dollars and they give two big pieces of the chicken fried steak, two eggs, and potatoes. It's well worth it. Onto the things I didn't really like about the place. Since the time limit is an hour, we decided to drink a little faster than usual. We were faced with many problems. The drinks came at a slow pace and the ratio was off. It tasted just like orange juice. Once the waitress understood we wanted more alcohol, she immediately poured more without us having to ask every time. I also didn't like how they didn't allow us to keep a bottle of champagne on the table. We had 5 people order the bottomless mimosas. Other places I've been to usually give the bottle to us, since we have a larger group. Overall decent place to come. Don't expect to get buzzed with your bottomless mimosas though. read more

Just got back from a great meal with my BFF's. Red haired Jenny and Jessica were our servers. They were great: took drinks order immediately, answered our questions intelligently, got our orders started right away, and one or the other checked on us frequently, As for the food: the presentation was appealing and most of all it tasted DELICIOUS!!! Kudos to the chef!! I had the seared salmon which was cooked to perfection. We gals are frequenting restaurants in Mission Viejo where we live. We will definitely be going to Pub 32 time and time again. It is a fun lively restaurant and had live music on the patio this Friday evening. read more

Very rude workers and the food is horrible had food poisoning will never go here again!! Be smart and stay away!!!!

Fun pub, good service. It's not too busy and it's a nice little area. If you're looking to have a good drink for an hour or so, good spot. Could have a little more food selection but overall I really enjoyed it read more

Love this restaurant with the cool food items, specials, service and drink. We've moved out of state, but when we go back to Mission Viejo to see family this will be a stop, again.... read more

I'd been to this place once for dinner and thought it was okay. I was having a difficult time finding anything on the menu that jumped out at me but my understanding is they change up the menu often. Because the cocktails, beer selection, and service were good, I'd go back and give dinner another shot. Especially after brunch Sunday. Hot damn that was a great brunch! $5 Bloody Marys and $10 bottomless mimosas for a start. And the coffee was excellent. My date and I had the full Irish breakfast a breakfast burrito and a waffle. Yes we over ordered but the leftovers were good too. This is honestly the best brunch I've had in Orange County in a while. I will definitely return for brunch and will be happy to check out dinner again sometime too. read more

Cant say i would recommend the place, granted it was later Friday night but... Service was slow, food was underwhelming, beer selection was very decent (what attracted me to it in the first place. Basic bar food like Putine was poorly done, not very much gravy (the basis of Putine) with undercooked fries and big pieces of meat (are you not supposed to get a fork of all). Had to track down the server on several occasions, including getting a table in a half empty restaurant, Seemed like a "Sausage Fest" men outnumbered women here at least 8:1, making my date uncomfortable. On top of all that it was very loud. Even though it's in the neighborhood, I will likely not be back, choosing Bru or Highland Tap room instead, where they do things right and appreciate my business. Maybe the whisky is better, but not that kind of night... read more

VOTED AS THE TOP 10 BURER OF ORANGE COUNTY! Rolled in here to grab a burger with my friend while in Orange County. We were totally in the mood for a nice stacked burger! After being greeted and welcomed by a beautiful staff member, my friend and I grabbed a seat. The pub was nice and refreshing after being outside in the summer heat for about an hour. The same blonde girl that greeted us came right away to bring us glasses of ice water & explained the menu to us. We decided on a beet salad & the specialty pub burger. Ohhhhh myyyy! Goodness, the meat on this burger was absolutely delicious! So juicy! So beefy! This burger worked so well with the pretzel bun it came with. The special sauce use was wonderful! It complimented with the greens that were used inside the burger. SOMEONE PLEASE TELL ME WHY THIS IS THE 1ST TIME I HAD A PRETZEL BUN?!? (I always opted for a "normal" bun thinking it would be softer and fluffier) Pretzels buns are the way to go!! So much extra texture! Crisp outer sides, soft, fluffy, stretchy! So perfect to soak up all the meaty juices from the thick patty! The fries that came with were plentiful, thick cut, & tasty! Overall, my lunch here was such a nice experience! The customer service, the environment, & the food. There is ample parking. It's located in a shopping center which provides lots of public parking all around. read more

Pub Thirty Two - Love me a thickythick stacked one! PRETZEL BUN WAS AMAAAAAZING - Gastropubs Near Me - Mission Viejo, California

Loved the live entertainment, but service was subpar. The sausage rolls (essentially pigs in a blanket) were delicious!! But the entrees were not good at all. I could barely eat my carbonara. Very overpriced for the quality :( read more

Super positive experience here. Showed up on a rainy day, with my puppy in tow. They put a table out for me, and helped set me up for a delightful meal. The hamburger was great, probably one of the best I've ever had. The beer selection was on point. And the staff was kind and courteous, treated me the new guy like a friend and the regulars like they were family. 10/10 would repeat. read more

Weekends here are super fun with live music. Jill is THE BEST and we have started coming here every couple of weeks because of her. We have added Friday nights into our Pub 32 visits because she is behind the bar and absolutely killing it. Overall great vibes, great service, food is usually decent - 5 stars for Jill and service, 4 stars for food. read more

Found everything to be quite disappointing. They have an extensive alcohol list on their website, we get there and everything we wanted they did not have. It was quite frustrating, very disappointed by the bar. The food was bland. We ordered 2 appetizers & 2 entrees, both lacked flavor/ texture. Lots of mush. Also, our waitress was sick, coughing, sniffling, and did not have a mask. We do not understand the hype. read more

I have given pub 32 many chances over the years . I will not come back. The food was terrible, and the service was mediocre. Would not recommend. read more

Fast food even better than this place. Waste my time. Maybe good for drink, but definitely No for brunch.

It's very hard to find food that my wife completely satisfied but we found one here. She got the one with chicken and pasta and pistachios and I got their steak specials. Both items so tasty and the stake melts in your mouth. Mashed potatoes also so tasty. The only thing is that I don't think all their food represented in the menu and special's prices not shown there. Food kinda expensive but it's ok once in a while. read more
