Best bar in the Bonsall/Fallbrook area. Ice cold beverages with top notch service. Highly recommend if you're looking for a fun dive bar without the vacation crowds flocking from Los Angeles or the Inland Empire. read more

Mondays at Ringers are the best with Kerry. She has great energy and brings joy to everyone in the bar. She interacts with the customers and makes an effort to know everyone. She's attentive to the needs of her customers. Fridays are not the same without her!! read more

Used to love coming here with friends on the motorcycles. Not sure what's happened but hope it gets back to the way it used to be.

This is an OK place. I live right down the street and stop by here sometimes on the way home for a one and done. Never order a Magarita. Their mix is awful! read more

Bring Kerry back on Fridays she's has Amazing energy, brings life to the Bar , so friendly and knows everyone which makes so easy to drop and say hi read more

It is a small town dive bar filled with plenty of great people. The service is always good and the place is always clean. The food is nothing special, but we're not asking for that here. They normally close down pretty early except none of the regulars find that to be a problem. The right game is always on and the music is never too loud. Although the drink prices continue to climb to a little bit too high. Other than that it's a fun place to visit and they always look forward to who I might bump into there. read more

Been coming for 30+ years. So sad Ringers decided that live music or karaoke is not needed for Friday or SATURDAY Nights. Who idea was that. Guess they want to go the way of other Fallbrook bars, Main Place, etc... read more

Shyt dive bar. Live music so loud trying to compensate for shytty billiards players who are too drunk to play a real game. Don't go here. Another bar is across the way or liquor store if you need a drink. Don't stop at this location. Would not recommend to anyone. Also the customers gamble so if you look foe that thing by all means. Just watch how they play by the rules. read more

This was a horrible experience.... First off, they don't tell you they put $100 hold on your credit card... they just expect you to read every sign they post up. Having been a bar owner myself, I would make sure my employees notified my customers of this bar tab rule. Secondly, this is a DIVE bar! Who puts $100 hold on dive bar customers?! And who charges over $9 for a middle of nowhere dive bar beer? This is laughable. The place is filthy and the service was wretched. If you go, buy a bottled beer and don't drink from their glassware. Also, don't bother ordering top shelf because I'm pretty sure the nail polish remover I drank was not the Kettle One I had asked for. VERY disappointed. read more

Probably my new favorite spot to unwind after a long day at work. Lulu is a fantastic host--always attentive to both regulars and newcomers like myself. Overall, a very pleasant place to visit regularly. read more

Cute place but when paying for our drinks the bartender put a $100 hold on our card without telling us. There is nothing posted either about placing a $100 hold on cards if used for payment. We've never experienced that anywhere before read more

Haven't been here in 30 years. While home on a visit we ran up to Pala. On the way back I had to stop in and see if the place had changed. They had a great band playing. Service was a little slow but the people were all friendly. It was a Friday night and the place was full. Loved that they were celebrating 40 years. I used to come here for Karaoke back in the 90's. When I go back home and am in the area, I will stop in again. Thanks for the memories. Visit was 7-28-23 read more

First time here at Ringers, and it's a nice little dive bar. Tuesday and Saturday night they have Karoke, live music is posted on the board and the days very. Prices are good, and the bartenders are very polite and nice and helpful. If your in the Bonsall, Fallbrook area I recommend you come by and try this place out. read more

I was refused service here, because I was wearing this riding vest. This isn't a club cut. The only patch affiliated to an organization, is the VFW Life Member patch. The only "colors" on it are the American flag. read more

They don't make good bars like this anymore. Cozy, fun and inexpensive. I stop in here every time I drive down the 76 to play a game of pool and have hands down the best bloody mary I have ever had. Sweetest bartenders too! read more

Cool local bar with live music, pool, lots of cool people, and good vibes! I came here in a Friday with a gal pal just looking for a good time and maybe a cute guy. We were greeted promptly and served ice cold beverages. Actually I had red wine and my friend had white wine. A cute guy actually bought me my second drink and I had an ice cold seltzer, lol. The cute guy was enjoying beer. This is a known locals place but it seemed that all were welcome and welcome to dance or play pool or just enjoy the ambiance. There's a Mexican taco shop next door for food and a 7/11 next door if you need gas. There was plenty of parking and the restrooms were clean read more

This place used to be nice and welcoming. Now there is a sign stating "no club patches or club colors" . Bartenders and bouncer have always been nice and provided a great service. I will not be back again. read more

Good popcorn and good band. The 2 stars is because I asked for a Modelo and the bartender grabbed someone's water glass from the bar top, rinsed it with water, and then filled it with beer before handing it to me. Not the most sanitary place but what do you expect from Bonsall?? read more

Beware of them overcharging your credit/debit card. Had a tab and they charged my card $20 more than the grand total. No email to contact. Oh well. read more

Came in Saturday night, not a lot of people. Atmosphere is great! They have Karoke, and the DJ was fantastic, and really knew his job! The wait between singers weren't bad at all. Had a fantastic time, will return for sure!!!!! read more

New to the San Diego area from the Bay Area. I love checking out new places, meeting new people, and finding hole in the wall dives bars (my guilty pleasure) - I checked out this establishment a few times. Initially it seemed pretty cool, a mix of older/younger alike. However, one of the bartenders is less than welcoming and unprofessional -- Melly. She began gossiping to the other bartender who was off the clock - this happened as soon as I stepped foot in the door. Talk about making customers uncomfortable. I wouldn't recommend going here alone, as a woman. Some of the men are a bit strange and not very nice. It can feel very uncomfortable and unsafe which seems to be tolerated by staff. I was asked to leave I assume when I spoke up against the disrespect and harassment. Once I was asked to leave, I was determined to not let the weird vibes ruin my night. I visited the newest establishment that just opened up within the same parking lot and wowwwww! Such a better experience, everyone was chill, nice and respectful. I had laughs, good beer, better company. Andddddd they allowed me to step in as the DJ (THE REAL MVPS) I had a great time. As I was leaving the plaza's parking lot...I notice Melly began chasing towards my car, she was waving her hands/arms. Her behavior was extremely concerning and erratic. For some strange reason she was trying to take photos of me, my car, my license plate. It was truly a VERY STRANGE experience. Like I said... be warned. I wouldn't go alone...Unless of course, you're a really tough cookie! Then more power to you. If you go you definitely have to be a strong woman - now, not everything was awful and that my friends... is the beauty of life, INNIT?! There was an awesome bartender I had the pleasure of chatting with once. Her energy was top tier, she was freaking hilarious and she's stunning! I don't recall her name but "it's the lady from weeds!" Shout out to her for being a nice human. Her husband was very cool too! It was lovely meeting them both! Also shout out to the other bartender, Nick. He was super chill and cool to talk to from my first visit there. I got to talk TRUCKS. My favorite. So 3 very cool people. Thank you guys man. Anyway, humor is also something I think k is beautiful in life so I've officially coined this bar.........The Last Resort Bar" (which is obviously in hell) - Alexa please cue "not all who wander are lost" and "I'm a little more stray dogggg!!!" - going to keep shining my light and finding my people. It just wasn't here and that okay! Tootles read more

This place truly is a gem. It's a lil ole country bar in Bonsall, Ca. Nothing special about it BUT the People, the Fun, the Drinks and the Bands. Sometimes you'll even catch a horse tied up out front that someone rode in on. If ever in the Bonsall, Ca. are give it a try. You'll be glad you did! Frankie G read more

Visited for the first time and it was really cool. Since moving to the area didn't really know if there was a good local bar that offered live music...but this is it! It's small so "check" for intimate vibe. It is laid back and feels safe (super important for a woman). I am a fan and can't wait to go back. Yay! read more

This is a good dive bar on the 76 in Bonsall. It's always busy and the drink prices are very reasonable. They don't have any food but I do see the patrons having BBQs and stuff sometimes, don't think strangers are invited though. Actually I don't know because I've never asked. If you're going to the Bonsall post office and you're thirsty for an adult beverage I recommend stopping by. Also I understand they might have music in the evenings but not sure cuz I've never been there at night. read more

Ask for Judy, Jessica or Liz. All beautiful women I have had the pleasure of meeting. There's also a few men such as Brandon and Steve. Gotta come down ya'll read more

Having a great time at Ringers! Absolutely love Danielle. Friday nights aren't the same without her

Our only hometown bar that is the definition of a dive (in a great way). Drinks are strong and the musics loud.

First timer discovering this cool divey bar! I had several hours to kill until my next tournament game nearby and this was the closest bar to the park. Shasta is a great and personable bartender, very professional, pretty, and hustles to get my drinks and all the others on a poppin Saturday afternoon rush. Lots of top premium liquor available. I even saw a Louis the 13th cognac pure! read more

We had a lot of fun with Doug leading karaoke. Regular visits for our drink orders, never had to wait. I will definitely visit again!!

A really great experience with awesome service! I've had friends telling me to come here for years but never stopped in. That was a huge regret, this place is great and has live music! read more

Gets the job done. Yummy taco place next door. 5/5 for a dive bar. Would totally come back again

We played there as The Chrome Domes and both the owner and staff were very accommodating to us. We love the atmosphere and the folks who all came out that night. Looking forward to many more shows there. Thanks again to all the staff!! read more

Stopped in here with a friend, on our way home from San Diego to Corona/ Riverside. Anyhow an accident 45minutes added to travel was enough to stop in to wait out the traffic. I called to ask of they had food because we were really super stoned and needed food....bad!. Unfortunately, they dint have food but said a Mexican joint was next door and wasnt bad. We got there had a beer and went and ordered food and OMG the food joint was bangin. Asada salad was the shit...nuther review...back to Ringers....very friendly!! LuLu was quite entertaining and defo easy on the eyes. Huba huba!!! Nice drinks nice folks. Awesome story time!!! Enjoy, I did!!! read more

Best country bar in North county, hands down. Sooo close to the back gate and so friendly. A must see to experience the old home town feeling that you might be missing. Get your hats, boots , motorcycles together and come on in. read more

I have a going here for years, they've always treated me nice, I love the bar. Judy, Liz, and Lulu are the nicest people I've ever met. I would invite them in my house on any given day. I think Will the Owner is a super nice guy and very interactive with his clientele. I don't know what is this place has bad reviews because I've never had any but a happy time there! read more

We've been coming here for over 10'years now and have always loved this place and the atmosphere but lately seems every time we go there to play pool there is an issue with some disgruntled employees and a customer that causes so much trouble making it really difficult for anyone to just have fun. I hope the new owner doesn't give into the politics and stands their ground cause there are a lot of us that really love the new set up but don't feel It's worth the drama any longer. it's too unpredictable with these small few who are causing such a huge ruckus about such a minor change. Btw...every live venue we've attended we dance in front of bands. read more

Ringers is the local bar that you wish you were a local at. They have live bands and karaoke!! It's a good place to enjoy vibes of bikers or people watch. Bartenders are amazing!!! Plus they have pool! Definitely will be stopping by here again to visit Dustin. They are willing to make any drink. PLUS they are already next to a Mexican restaurant! Perfect for your drinking needs. read more

I used to be a regular and loved the place but when i came back today after being gone quite some time i ordered a Club Soda as i stopped drinking a couple of years ago. They charged me $4.00 for a soda water. They must be smoking crack ! read more

Just moved here. Best bar ever. ALL the staff is amazing. Every bartender will treat you like family. Both the Jessica's are fantastic, and AJ will clean up after your mess. Live music is good and the juke box bumps. I'm sending all my friends from oceanside here. Worth the uber. read more

Exceeded my expectations.... I finally visited on a warm Sunday afternoon after a long drive. I'm not from the area, so it was the first place that popped up for a cold one. I pulled up to find a line of bikes outside. After taking a deep breath I walked in. I sat down and was immediately greeted with a smile by Kelly. She poured me a pitcher and went back to her larger party. This is the point (usually), where a bartender will just leave me alone until the pitcher is empty. I expected this because of the large crowd on the other side of the bar (Birthday Party) However, I have never been more wrong. She came back not too long after to see how I was doing. She also came up with a crafty way to keep my pitcher cold. You will have to see Kelly to find out more. It also turns out that they have a free BBQ for the customers on Sunday. Burgers, dogs, all the fixings were in a clean spread. There is a grill outside for you to cook your own meat. This is combined with the outside smoking area. A warm (free) hot dog, a VERY cold beer, and a friendly bartender. I ask the Yelp community, what more can you ask for? Sure it's not for everyone. But I will say that I was treated much better here as a stranger than other spots that had rave reviews. Entertainment: There is a Golden Tee game, and an electronic dart board. There is also a stage, but it was empty at the time. I assume there are bands that come or karaoke. I plan to visit again at night and update my review. BONUS: Someone started passing out pieces of Birthday cake. We were automatically included. While this doesn't have much to do with the establishment, it does show you that the regulars are friendly. That will teach me to judge a book by it's cover. read more
