The Local - The Local Irish pub were you can find great bartenders always giving you the best recommendations on what to drink. - Beer Bar Near Me - Camarillo, California

We came in on a Wed night for my bday. We lucked out with the sweetest bartender. Each drink was a work of art--and just as thirst-quenching. We ordered food from an Indian restaurant and had it delivered to the bar. Love that you can do that here. Definitely give them a try! read more

The Local - HBD to me - Beer Bar Near Me - Camarillo, California

Cool local neighborhood bar located in Camarillo Springs. Large parking lot but it is shared with a soccer field so can be hard to find parking depending on time. There is no food served at this location but plenty of food/snacks available from outside vendors or liquor store next door. Now the drinks...selection is amazing. From mixed drinks, huge craft beer selection and yes there is wine. The mixed drinks are my favorite since they are really good. Mai tai or any rum drinks are a must here. Best deal day is still Wednesday $10 days. Service is super friendly. Crowd is really fun too. Make sure to visit them. read more

Didn't give this spot a proper chance. Online it says cocktail bar but my friend and I walked into a sports dive bar with only beers available. I looked around for a cocktail menu, but was unable to find one. We also felt very out of place, as this seems to be a strong spot for regulars. The lady behind the bar also seemed surprised that we were there. I'm not much into dive bars or sports bars, so the loud music and tvs ruined the experience in my experience. I was expecting a quieter location based on previous reviews and photos. All in all, I was caught off guard during my first visit but I'm willing to come back. The cocktails in these reviews look too delicious to pass. read more

Stopped by with friends, and it's such a lovely little bar well-deserving of its name - The Local. Feels like it's a hidden little gem that really only locals go to. Great cocktails and beer options. Love a good cider, and it was nice to see some good options on tap. Their pineapple cider was delish. Hubs also loves whiskey, so it was fun to see that they do a mystery whiskey of the week. Good location to catch up with friends or watch a sporting event. Will definitely be back! read more

First timer to The Local. While I came thinking I was gonna do cocktails; the vibes of this place feel more divey and I went for a sour instead after work. Not sure if this is my vibe for a cocktail-- but for sure for a beer! Has a pool table, and also if you happen to bring your laptop-- you could borrow WiFi from nearby or use your hotspot to do some emails. Lots of parking since it's in a strip mall. Overall, not bad! read more

National Irish Coffee Day!! HAD to arrive at Noon for their opening. Mikey was just unlocking the door. I told him I was just happy to be here and to take his time setting up. But the whirlwind that he is he immediately started searching for Crème de Menthe that I had messaged asking him about. I love seeing a little green swirl on top of an Irish Coffee, though few places still do that. I'm old school. Mikey found the Crème de Menthe and all was good in the world! (Even the LA Fires are subsiding.) Moments after I arrived many others piled in. Lots of laughter and recognition among friends. I just need to get down here more often. Love this place!! read more

How can you rate this anything less than 5 stars? The Local is the hidden hole in the wall that you want to gatekeep but also let everyone know how great it is! Shoutout to Melissa L. for putting me on, I mean $10 cocktails and Guinness on tap? Legendary Everyone is so nice and welcoming, and the lilac wine cocktail blew me away with how nice it looked, not overly sweet, floral, and with nice balance between the wine and gin, you wouldn't think it works together, but sit down and find out for yourself! read more

B I G shoutout to Melissa L. for putting The Local on my radar. This bar is tucked away in an unassuming shopping plaza in a quiet neighborhood, but once you walk in, you know you're in for a good time. I've always been a fan of dive bars and have been to quite a few, but this bar stands out in so many great ways. Right after walking in, you can see that The Local has so many locals -- everyone knows everyone and is having a great time. The atmosphere is lively, fun, and welcoming to anyone new. Not only does The Local have great beer on tap, they also specialize in craft cocktails! There's a variety to choose from, they all look beautiful, and I'd say they'd rival high-end bars. I've tried a few, and as a non Whiskey drinker, I was surprised to say Honey 4 my Honey is my favorite so far. All of the bartenders I've met so far are awesome, especially Victor and Jen. They are great at what they do and they have fun banter with the locals. Even the owner, Mikey, takes time to chat and is so passionate about his bar. The last thing that makes The Local my go-to bar now is that it is c l e a n! I love that I can walk around without having my shoes stick to the floor and that I can actually use the restroom when I need to. If you've ever been to even one dive bar, you'd know what I mean. Besides the above, they have a must-have pool table and a few other table games. While the actual bar isn't too big, I can see it getting packed, so if you're planning a visit with a larger group, plan ahead to snag a table and I'll see ya there! *Hot tip: while there isn't food served here, you can order food delivered to The Local and enjoy it there! read more

I just want to say this place is an absolute gem! Came in for a drink and was lucky enough to catch a UFC fight. The atmosphere was so nice that it just made you feel like a LOCAL. The bartender was on her game and definitely loves what she does. I will be back more than once! read more

There is no better place with the combination of ambience, service, and excellent craft cocktails and wide selection of beer. They are food friendly, and you can bring in anything from anywhere. Or Friday and Saturdays they usually bring in a local food provider that is well picked and well suited for pub food. Both the owner and the staff are incredible. It is our favorite place. Great for sports, hanging out, first dates and after work, relaxation. read more

My 700th Review hands down has to go to The Local. Not only is it the best bar in all of the 805, it's also probably my favorite establishment in Ventura Co. as the vibes are always right and the cocktails are perfection. I've only taken this long to review The Local because I never felt that I could do this bar justice in a review but here is my best attempt. The local is located in Camarillo Springs - Camarillo and has been open for 5 years now. It's off the beaten path but word of mouth has spread that this is the best Irish Bar EVER so thankfully people come from all over the place to cozy up to the bar and to check it out for themselves. I'm always impressed when I meet new people at the bar and they tell me from how far they traveled to give this spot a try. I'm blessed to be a real "local" of the Local, but if I wasn't I'd surly make the trip as this bar has fantastic cocktails, beyond talented bartenders, and the atmosphere is friendly and welcoming. If your a fan of a dive or a higher end cocktail bar The Local meets both demands. I'm more a dive bar kinda gal myself and I love the vibes here. The interior is dark and cozy, yet welcoming. It's a classic neighborhood dive were everyone knows each other and If your a newbie your instantly treated like a friend. However, the cocktails here can always compete with any 5 star trendy bar as they have a huge variety of liquors & unique ingredients to customize your cocktails to your liking. They have an extensive cocktail menu with the classics but also some really unique sips that keep me coming back for more. The staff here are the best. Mikey is the owner and he doesn't need much of an introduction. Everyone loves Mikey and if you give this spot a try you'll likely find him here behind the bar, ready to welcome you and be prepared for him to strike up a conversation with you. Again, regardless If your a newbie or an OG, your treated like family. All of the staff & bartenders here are lovely. Quality people work here and they definitely deserve your business. They are passionate mixologists and turn out delish drinks every time. Oh and don't forget the craft beers on tap! The Local always has an awesome selection of beers and they rotate daily/weekly so it's fun knowing you can always try something new. I've learned a lot about different beers, ciders, and seltzers after drinking here over the years. Just some extra bonuses before I wrap up my review (if I haven't sold you already): this bar is super clean & a comfortable hangout spot, they allow you to get food delivered so it's foodie friendly, they have a nice spacious bar and a good amount of tables inside, the prices can't be beat for the quality of the drinks, and most importantly it's a fun yet safe spot to grab a drink with some friends. The Local is a true gem and the 805 is lucky to have this bar. It's my favorite spot to drink and to have a good laugh, I hope you'll try this spot soon and I'll see you there! read more

This place was awesome. We loved finding this place thanks to the Yelp community and my local Cam Foodie group, and I'm happy to put a 5 star stamp on it. Welcoming homey vibe inside. Drinks were excellent. We tried a few things like the newbs we were and loved it all. Nice variety on the menu without feeling overwhelming. Strong whiskey selection, which was a huge plus for me. Also, there were lots of fun drinks that my husband was really into. We will definitely be back to this friendly local watering hole. read more

The Local - Ulysses (short and dark) Cereal Killer (tall and deadly sweet & creamy in the best way) - Beer Bar Near Me - Camarillo, California

What a cozy fun bar this is. Went out with some friends the other night and had a great time here. They have fun games you can play on the tables or you can bring your own if you want. The bartender was really friendly and the place is nicely decorated for the Saint Patrick's holiday. Great specials also! This might seem odd, but is worth noting. I couldn't get over how great the bar and even the bathroom smelled. I don't even think my house smells this good. That is a nice change of pace from your typical bars that smell dingy and like tears of regret. I only wish this place was larger, I can easily see this place getting packed. Luckily enough, I was able to score a great table that night. Definitely a great place to check out. Don't sleep on the local if you are a local! read more

Great local pub!I have visited twice, and both times the atmosphere was delightful, welcoming and cozy. I appreciate that they offer craft beers and a wide selection of mixed drinks, and the bartenders are exceptionally skilled. The service is outstanding. I spoke with both the male and female bartenders who were incredibly knowledgeable about the craft beers they have in stock and astonishingly efficient mixologists; there were rarely any significant waits for drinks. I thoroughly enjoy this bar. The music is always great, ranging from hip-hop to country and other genres, and it always keeps the crowd engaged. I particularly appreciate the bartenders' attentiveness in responsibly limiting service to customers who appear to have had too much to drink--that is a significant advantage for me, truly showing they care. I will be visiting again! read more

Most lovely bar in a bizarre strip mall location. We are LA residents, driving home from wine tasting and stopped for a quick drink on the way to outlet shopping, not expecting much. Let me tell you - we will be stopping here as our regular break, moving forward. Great, extensive drink menu. Best cosmo I've had in the last 10 years. Extensive liquors available. Very nice staff and patrons. Wish we lived closer, because this would be our regular bar. Thank you! read more

Tucked away in a desolate shopping plaza comes a small bar with a BIG selection of spirits and local crafted beer. Almost every imaginable whiskey and scotch is on hand. If you're a novice whiskey drinker, owner Mikey knows his liquor and will gladly take you through a flight of his favorites in order to get to one you'll like. No food service here BUT they allow you to bring (or deliver) your favorite meal to accompany your served drink. All the bartenders I've encountered are extremely friendly and provide generous pours to the libation of your choosing. If you're not in a rush and looking for simple watering hole, head down to The Local and let the drinks flow. read more

The service from the bartender was great. We had grabbed a table just to relax a bit and were pleasantly surprised when the bartender walked over to us at the table and took our order. He was very helpful and amicable. This is my second time visiting and I'm sure I will be back in the future. read more

A small neighborly pub. Warm and inviting, with Irish decor. Ordered a pint of Guinness and the bartender made the first pull setting glass down to let a Blacken Liquid Gold to settle. After the appropiate time she finished the second pull, without the push back. Not much of a problem. The taste was fine but slightly flat, good enough to order a second pint. The owner, originally from Timahoe in County Laois, took over the establishment in 2018 and turned it into an Irish Pub. Worth a visit and good for many more. Scale 1 to 10 - 6 to a high 7. read more

Finally made it into what used to be the couch in this relatively unknown plaza in the Springs. It's a comfortable spot where you can enjoy local and beloved craft beers. A much needed add to a desolate Camarillo. And the Lesiure Village set has not over run the place! There are tables, stools and a pool table. Taps and kegs rotate quickly. Along with a case of more unique options. The staff are supper friendly and offer up pretzels. There might be a food truck outside or you can bring it order delivery food. Trivia night is Tuesday. Follow their Instagram to be in the know of me featured beers and special events. And come have a good time at a place that takes nothing too serious. See website for hours and location. read more

SUCH FUN COCKTAILS! The bar has an old school vibe with new age drinks. It is a small bar but they have bar seating and tables. I went with my family on a Friday night there was a chill vibe. They have playing cards and poker chips on the tables for you to use if you'd like. It made for a nice place to grab drinks with your family and play some card games. They bartender was super helpful in helping us choose a drink! They have beer, cocktails and non-alcoholic beer. The prices are great for the quality of drinks you get. read more
