Full disclosure, I have been an Elk at this particular Lodge for 3 years now. And I don't regret a…read moremoment of it. I am sure I have saved more than my membership and the cost of drinks alone. They do definite heavy pores and it's worth every penny to join. The elks have a acronym bpoe... Which stands for best people on Earth, and they're not lying. Especially at this Lodge. This place is absolutely wonderful, they serve great food, and I have something going every single night of the week. This place has one of the best bars I have seen, and has pool tables, TVs all over the place, and just a great vibe to it. If you had even considered becoming an elk, I suggest you do it. There are lodges all over the nation, and you really need to check it out. And when you are in California, Orange county, in particular, you need to come to the elks Lodge here in Newport Beach. It will change your life and rock your world. Bottom line? I really didn't know that I needed to be a part of a lodge until I joined the Elks. They do such great humanitarian work, and this Lodge in particular is very big on supporting veterans, and other charity causes. Go check them out today!

The venue is very nice. Right on the water with lots of windows. The food is always good, whether…read moreprepared by the full-time cooks/chefs or the volunteers. Taco Tuesday is the bomb. The menu is terrific, as is the food itself. Alex and Gloria prepare great food. Their service is very good. The bartenders, for the most part, are the worst I have ever encountered. They are rude, abrupt, and constantly yelling at members and guests. My wife and I have never had a guest who didn't complain about the bartenders. Members from other lodges complain to us. Why are they still there after repeated complaints?

My happy place. I've been taking classes here 6 months in a row now. Here's why I continue to…read morechoose this place over others: - Along with a 2 hour guided session once a week, you get to come in during non-class hours to practice and make unlimited items throughout the month (which makes this studio's monthly class cost an AMAZING DEAL) - They provide all the clay and tools needed to succeed. No need to purchase anything unless you want to upgrade your game. - I've only taken classes with Emma and Tim (who are both stellar instructors), but I heard everyone else is great too. - As long as you provide a 48 hour notice, you can switch your class to another day of the week. - There's always parking available! - You can purchase tools and materials directly from the shop and pick it up on the shelf the next time you come in. Overall, this place is 10/10. The only "downside" is that it's a cone 10 reduction studio, but to some it might not matter!

It's more than a workspace--it's a hub of community, creativity, and empowerment. Every detail, from the beautiful decor to the intentional programming, reflects Blackbird's mission to support women of color in business and beyond. The energy here is unmatched. Whether I'm taking meetings, heads-down in deep work, or attending an inspiring event, I always leave feeling more focused, connected, and affirmed. The team is welcoming, professional, and passionate about creating an inclusive environment that celebrates possibility. If you're looking for a place to work, build, and belong--this is it.

Their cafe sandwiches I've had thus far have been really fresh. Locally owned and operated. They even have a great app to keep track of your membership, upcoming events, networking, even able to have your profile show to say you're open to play some golf or network. It's a really great atmosphere and topping my list of co-working spaces. The vibe I'm getting is entrepreneurial, ambitious, golf, visionaries, charitable, partnerships, networking, self-improvement, wellness, locally sourced, quality whole foods, and the list goes on. Highly recommend checking it out. Notes: - Closed Mondays. - Directions from phone have been inconsistent. It's located just off Red Hill and turn on Bell. Left into the first parking lot. - they have rental clubs. But I've seen most bring their own set. and there are also lockers so you don't have to make several trips to the car between working and golfing and back to work. - membership options or day passes available. Pricing on their site. Month to month (or discount for annual upfront). And no start up costs, initiation fees, or hidden fees. You can also add money to your spending account so you don't have to pay each food/beverage purchase. They also have a point system so you earn food credits. Overall, I'm impressed by their ability to bring the concepts together as well as they did. I haven't had issues finding spots to sit or park, but there are a good amount of people there, not too busy, quiet to work, large enough that we can spread out a bit on a table, if need be), their app, events, and quality food. I saw this place come up on Instagram and it looked too good to be true, but I checked it out same day and upon first step in, I knew I had to join. And for some reason my previous Yelp searches for co-working spaces or coffee/work spots didn't show me this amazing place, but I have a feeling it will be making its way to the top in the near future. Opened just last year. They've had some big events there, believe Hulu or some network was filming there a couple weeks ago, and I attended this book launch and podcast tour with BossBabe and another badass woman. Over 100 boss women showed to that (tickets purchased separately - they used Ever Club as the event space). super cool to be a part of.

I have been to other toastmaster clubs and this one by far is one of the best...if not THE best in…read morethe area. Here are a couple of things that really made this club special. 1st thing is that everyone is so welcoming. The very first time I visited this club I felt extremely welcomed. 2nd thing is that this club is not afraid to talk about any topic. They really live by their motto "No topic is taboo" because I heard speeches and talks on very controversial topics such as politics, religion, and sex to name a few. What is remarkable though is how everyone is so respectful of other people's opinion that the club really creates a safe space to talk about anything. 3rd thing is that the members are very diverse from age, race, gender, occupation, family, recreation. There are young 25 yr olds all the way to 65+ both male and female that are engineers, sales, c level executives, students, entrepreneurs, single, married, kids, no kids, as wells as people from all the continents (except Antarctica...nobody really lives there). If anything just visit the club and see what it's all about.

It's rare to find a space where you feel this supported and connected. I'm so glad I found The Circle. It's been a gift!

The shrink menu was curated for the Lounge, and they were really yummy. I won't talk too much about them in this case they were limited offerings for just the lounge. I will speak to their wine selection, which includes great wines and natural wines too. The wine service was amazing as well. I got some snacks to start off the night, like the cheese board and toasted bread. Both were really well done and delicious. I would definitely come back for a date night. It is very cozy and cute here. The decor and seating options are beautiful, and there is an outdoor area to play games as well. The cool thing that they offer here is an all-inclusive wedding package for up to 35 people for just $10k-- that's a steal!! Might mess around and get married, honestly. Parking is a little tricky, but there is a park nearby. I assume there is parking there, but I ended up parking in their parking lot, which is reserved for other businesses during regular hours.
