Totally a bro hangout. Haha I was expecting a top golf type place but it was more like a shop in a strip mall with about 6 golf simulators. Staff totally cool and the food, while it looked like frozen dinners, the pizza was pretty solid! The beer selection was pretty good as my hubby loves Hazys. I loved the cider selection. We had a great date night and he got some golf in and I got some golf swinging lessons. It was perfect for the torrential downpour outside to be able to still get some golf in while we were in Escondido area. The only part that wasn't cool was, the simulator had a few glitches and didn't catch some of our swings, that was a bummer bc I hit some decent ones when it didn't count. Would totally come back to hit some more balls and a casual hang out. read more

4.5/5 Overview: first time at a golf simulator bar, really cool experience, kinda pricey, food was okay, but we had a fun time ---- Pricing: - $35 for 30 minutes (walk-in only) - $65 for 60 minutes - $100 for 90 minutes - $135 for 120 minutes - $10 for club set rentals ---- The simulator areas are in an open area, not private rooms, and behind the hitting area is a couch and a table with some chairs for people in your party to sit and rest. Sometimes the golf ball isn't sensed so make sure you see that it says the ball is sensed on the screen. Otherwise if you hit it, it will not register it. There are different game modes available like driving range, trying to aim into a bucket, or playing an actual game of golf. They also have an instant replay of the hitting area so that you can review your stroke and where you hit the ball. I see the appeal in if you are wanting to try out or work on different areas of golf. Like you can play an entire game without having to be in the hot sun, or see from a top-down view of your club placement when you strike the ball. ---- Food was alright, minus half a star. We ordered the pepperoni pizza ($14) which was steaming hot when it came out and had a crispy bottom. Just a standard pepperoni pizza, nothing amazing. Ambiance wasn't "bar-like" which I liked bc while there was music playing you could still hear your own conversations. Service was great we somehow managed to hit 2 tees on top of the hitting area and they gave us another one each time. Lots of parking bc it shares it with other businesses in the plaza. ---- Overall: whether you are a golf fanatic or just want to try something out, this is a pretty great place to experience. Pricing is basically a dollar a minute you're here, but they have a wide variety of game modes available and the comfort of being indoors. read more

Always a fun time at The Golf Bar! Drinks are great and the food is way better than expected. Employees are always helpful if we ever need anything. read more

Overall, I would say it was a great experience for the kids and definitely worth a visit if you've never been to a virtual golf center. The staff was very nice and was able to explain everything for us and I would say my kids had a lot of fun because there was a variety of games that you could do with a soccer ball baseball and a football. The place overall was clean and well kept an interesting, so there was enough virtual screen bays that you could play and it seemed like it was not too busy at this location. I did try using my Groupon at the Clairemont location, but they were packed. We have a fun time. It wasn't too hard to get the hang of this but overall I would say you should use the Groupon and it makes that one hour worth it. read more

Staff was awesome , they have 5 gold sim bays and it's a lot of fun . Seems place gets the dads or married man from the local neighborhoods that gather for some game time with peeps . It's literally a social man cave. It's fun though , sims work great and they have alcoholic drinks and food . Got it through Groupon and though it was a good deal ( about $30xhr) read more

We went there for 60 minute experience. Kids enjoyed a new experience of playing different sports and adults got to enjoy some appetizers and drinks. Food was decent. Kids especially loved the pretzel and service was friendly. It was $60 just for the experience and another $60 for food, drinks, and tip. read more

The Golf Bar - Zombie dodgeball - Bars Near Me - San Diego, California

First time at this location. Facility appeared new with nice ambiance. We had a group event and took up all three simulators. They had a private room too with two simulators but it was booked. Service was excellent and very accommodating and special thanks to Judy who was our main server who was always enthusiastic in assisting us. Food was typical bar food but had healthy options too. We ordered 10 different items (including three different pizzas) and my favorites that I tried were the #CrunchyGarlicWings #TaterTots #EverythingJumboPretzel the #ChickenBaconSliders looked amazing but I was too full to try. Only thing I didn't like was the #Nachos, The chips and sauce didn't go well together. We were able to bring a cake which they kept refrigerated for us until we were ready and also the wines ($15 corkage fee). They also had an assortment of wine and beers. Great place to sit at the bar too and watch a game, Great place for a group event read more

Great service, love the staff. My group came a bit late and they were open to allowing us more time until they showed up. Great food I always get the pretzel and I tried their soju grape which was interesting. They got a great selection of beer and mixed drinks. I always go here every month to practice hitting some sims, they had a new update that allowed for you to track the swing impact and switch sides of your swing read more

Great place to hit golf balls and play fun virtual courses. I'm giving this place 5 stars because the pizzas are really good here! Great vibes and service. read more

Awesome spot! Came here with my office for a fun night of golfing and drinks and it did not disappoint! Pizza was yummy, super nice bartenders, fun games! Would definitely recommend for a fun night that's a little different than your average dive bar. read more

Sat early eve, 2 of the 5 simulators in use. Quiet shopping center, easy parking and clean. Friendly helpful staff, very attentive. Cool vibe if u like to golf, because u don't lose your balls you can finish game quicker than if on a real course. After about an hour all simulators were in use. Boys had fun, even newbies. You can play other games as well. Great deal if you buy on Clipp or Groupon, 50% off. Food is ok, we bought a pizza and wings, fine to snack on while playing, but we ended up going elsewhere for dinner. Would recommend if you want to practice and hang out with your friends. read more

Food was really good, service was excellent and the beers were great. Didn't even use the simulator!!

The golf bar is awesome. Good food and drink options and great staff. The simulators are fun and have a variety of course options to play.

Great place to play in AC, which will be especially useful when it gets hot out. Staff is always friendly and on top of everything, the golf sims work well, and the food is surprisingly good for a golf bar. read more

Had the best time tonight! We are members but the main chef holly made the best pizza. On top of that willow and the girl in charge Jordan made sure to keep checking on us even though we were there for a while. Definitely come to this location if you want to be well attended to. Nothing but good vibes, good beer, and good golf read more

Incredible food & drinks at a good price with great hospitality from Chris! With the golf simulators, there is fun for everyone and overall great atmosphere. We will definitely be back soon! read more

Golf bar is a place of good vibes and good beer. Jordan and Willow gave this establishment a fun and welcoming atmosphere and continued to service us with the perfect selection of beer for our indoor round of golf. Holly the main chef made the best pizza and wings!! Cannot recommend this location enough if you're playing with the boys or having a birthday party for the kids. Thank you so much Golf Bar at Rancho Bernardo! Aloha and mahalo! read more

I've been going to this Golf bar for months with friends and family and the service is always top notch! Jordan is awesome and always takes great care of my group and makes sure that we're having a great time. The food is good too! read more

Go see Clint at The Golf Bar. I went in to purchase some gifts certificates for Christmas and received outstanding customer service by Clint.

So disappointed in this place. Website and google and yelp all advertised that it was open until 10/11pm. My fiance and I drove over 45 minutes bc we were trying to find somewhere to get food that was open. Apparently the kitchen closed at 9. We were actually there several minutes before 9, but they refused to serve us. I begged and told them how far we had driven and that we knew exactly what we wanted and please could they serve us. The female employee was nice and tried to get the manager to cut us a break but he came out and just didn't give a crap. Also the ambience is really terrible, super bright lights and weird music. Don't be fooled by the high reviews. Would NOT recommend and will never be coming back. read more

Cool place for an event. We had 30 people and reserved the back room. It has 2 screens to play. One was the golf and the other had various sports options. The teens had a good time. Plenty of seats. Service was good but food was mediocre. We ordered pizza, buffalo cauliflower and tater tots. Wasn't anything special. This is a cashless bar so make sure you bring only credit cards! read more

We visited The Golf Bar for a private party and were totally impressed! There are 5 "pods" where you can play simulated games and choose from a ton of options like baseball, soccer, carnival games, golf, and a ton more! Each pod has sofa seating and chair seating. There is a bar area with wine, beer, seltzer, and saki-based alcohol. The pizza, wings, pretzels, and tater tots were perfect for the overall feel. We will definitely be back! read more

This place is SO fun! A great idea for a rainy or hot day when kids can't play outside. We had a blast playing golf, soccer and kickball. Their menu seems great, we only tried the cauliflower buffalo bites and weren't too impressed. Service was great and we will definitively be back! read more

This is hands down the best indoor golf sim in San Diego. I'm glad they put one in a spot that is more north county so I can go with my family. This location has wider screen sims compared to the other location which I didn't think would make a big difference but it really does help out and I like the extra space...especially when my son runs around playing zombie dodgeball. This location also has golden tee which is awesome. Great to be able to sit and play while watching the March madness games. Fun to play while waiting for a sim to be ready. Love the ambiance in this place. It's got a great feel and the staff does well at making you feel at home. Chris and Clint always seem to make sure you are having a good time and that your group is enjoying themselves. There is also a private room you can rent out if you would like that really is a fun space away from the rest of the bays if you are looking for a more private experience for a party or just bring your friends. Great job The Golf Bar! You really crushed it with the second location. Definitely will be back a lot. read more

The food was fine not great. And the service was not the best to. Also the golf was not super good.

Cool spot to spend a night either golfing or playing any of their fun games (soccer, football, carnival games, etc). If youre playing golf, you can bring your own clubs or it says you can rent some for a fee. This location has 5 different bays so if you do plan on coming, I would recommend making a reservation. If not, you could be waiting if they're all full. They also have a bar and kitchen with their own TGB Hazy. Their food is actually really good. You can order a full meal or just apps to munch on. read more

It was my first time at golf bar and Jordan and Willow felt very welcoming. They managed the bar very well. Sad to hear that Jordan is leaving soon she did a very good job, and provided great service. read more

So much fun! Jordan and willow provided amazing service! Great drinks and atmosphere!

Jordan and Willow were awesome, super friendly and helped me and my group have a great time by giving great advice for the games we wanted to play! Would highly recommended having a event here with them as hosts/bartenders read more

think top golf but add in other sports. cool little spot that is spacious but hidden in a strip mall. came here for my son's team party and the boys had a blast! the service was great- the guys were so accommodating and kind to the kids. their menu is simple so don't hold off on eating all day because you know you're going to the golf bar- boneless wings and tater tots are worth a try. read more

Aside from the cost, this is not a bad place to visit. They're located in a shopping center, and parking can be a little difficult at times. The inside was clean and new looking. The staff were very friendly and knowledgeable. We ordered two appetizers, and both were tasty. They also have a full bar there - draft beer is $8, and mixed drinks are around $12. The only downside to this place is the overall cost. I was there for a birthday party, which they reserved the space in the back with the two screens. Someone got there early and started hitting balls, so they tried to charge him $175 for 30 minutes. He was able to get the charge waived, but that rate makes this place nearly untouchable. read more

My wife, daughter and I went here for the first time and I gotta say AMAZING. The bays were huge, each one had a comfortable couch. And of course cant forget the service. Jordan was our main person and she was extremely helpful, and assisted us in every possible way including bring the ingredients to make a Shirley temple so my daughter could make it herself! Would recommend 10/10 times. Also Willow was very helpful. If you are going to a simulator GO HERE. read more

A great place to go and play! Jordan and Willow are absolutely amazing, attentive, and funny! Even with it being busy, we were constantly tended to and it was made sure we had a great experience. We live 30 minutes away and will absolutely be making the drive again and again. Thanks again Jordan!!! read more

The absolute best. We celebrated our friend's 43rd birthday for 2 hours. Price was very fair, Andrew (our main contact) was awesome and provided guidance and was an attentive server. We were pumped for 2 hours playing all the simulator offerings. 11/10 highly recommend. read more

Love this place! The simulators are top of the line, the food is bomb, and the staff are all cool af. Great place to come work on your swing, have a nice little date night, or come with a group and let loose. Simulators also have other games besides golf which is a nice touch. Def recommend to all you golf nuts out there read more

Go here. Dont wait to check it out, just go now. We live in RB, we dont have a ton of options around here, and this place is awesome and we all need it to do well. The simulators are great, yeah its geared around golf but they have other games to play for the kiddos if golf is not their bag. The food is pretty damn good. We have had pizza, wings & the quesadilla, after swinging your clubs and chugging some beer, the kitchen comes thru. Great beer selection, I cant do IPA's anymore so I stick to light beers, they have a nice selection on tap. The staff is super friendly & attentive. I will be coming here 1-2 times a month easily, until reservations are too hard to come by. read more

We were looking for something interactive and fun for my husbands birthday and find this gem by accident... we had THE BEST time and are already planning our return. The games were really fun and interactive kept everybody highly entertained. read more

I'm not a golfer, but I love these places and the concepts. Think Top Golf but without the ridiculously overpriced costs for bays + food + drinks. The staff is super friendly, Clint runs a tight ship on his folks. The owner Chris is also a great guy and really tries to make an experience that suits all kinds of folks (families, groups, date night, serious golfers, etc.). I'm partial to the garlic wings, giant pretzel and I love the TGB hazy beer they partnered with Karl Strauss on. read more
