Great place, great location , great service. We came here after lunch to watch the US World Cup game. I think there's more than 20 TVs. Here. Good drinks and appetizers. Recommended! read more

Tipsy Putt was a last minute grab for us in the search for late night food. They accommodated us for sure and there was three of us. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's a fun joint, some games and clean enough for us.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The smashed burger was actually pretty good with some added bacon and avocado. Not bad at all as well as the chicken strips and tacos. The fries on the other hand - no in fact no twice not good at all. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Decent place and it hit the spot.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Tipsy Putt is that kind of place that is underrated and shouldn't be. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Great location....[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Great service...... The mini Queso-Birria Tacos- WOW! So good! The chicken sandwich was a great choice, too! Plenty of beer selection. Yes, vodka too. Oh, the St. Paddy's Jell-O shot was heavy-good. [[HIGHLIGHT]]This place looks small from the outside but it's the inside that will get your attention.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] In a town like Monterey where there are an abundant amount of choices to eat and drink; Tipsy Putt should never be disqualified. Alexis, she had the best attitude and personality to do the job. She was playing the best music from her own Spotify and it was on point. Sure, they forgot to bring our fries with the sandwich but this is an easy fix. The attitude no one can ever fix. [[HIGHLIGHT]]A super spotless and clean establishment. Yes, this includes the bathrooms.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]No one should get bored at The Tipsy Putt. It's a vibe![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] If we ever come back to Monterey and hope to do so; Tipsy Putt, YOU'RE IT! Let's get ready for summer yall! read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]If you're looking for a fun, family friendly indoor activity, Tipsy Putt is the place to be![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Tipsy Putt is located in the heart of downtown Monterey and is the perfect spot for a night out![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The downstairs has a unique (though slightly smaller than average) mini golf course.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] There's a bigger bar upstairs and a mini bar downstairs with a nice selection of seltzers and drinks. Since it's a pretty popular spot, it can get packed on the weekends so expect a bit of a wait! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Also, it can very hot downstairs, so I'd recommend wearing something light and comfortable.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They have a decent selection of drinks and food available, with plenty of seating including an outdoor patio. Can't wait to visit again soon! read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Came here for a friend's birthday weekend and had such a fun time despite it not being super crowded at night.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Recommend doing the $15 mini golf, which is the mini courses on the main floor and it's a lot more lively here.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The bottom floor is where the bathrooms and real golf courses are, but it's a lot more secluded.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The real heartbreak came when we realized the kitchen closed at 9pm, but the bartenders were really helpful when it came to us ordering sweeter choices of cocktails and letting us know about the difference between the mini / regular courses. They also gave us recs on what was open late at night. Their cocktails were yummy and tasted like described on the menu! The John Daly tasted more sweeter than I anticipated as it came with simple syrup, vodka, and lemon juice. Both were still great choices. We love a lil bev to sip onnnnn. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I also liked how this place had their own photobooth and outdoor seating with couches and a fireplace.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Fun place to go to with a large group.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Decent spot where you can play mini golf downstairs. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Layout of the restaurant is kinda confusing.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] You order at the counter and then pick up your food on the other side of the kitchen window. We grabbed a table thinking we can order from the QR code but that was not the case. Wished they would have provided menus beforehand or at least on the big monitor so you don't wait in line not knowing what to order. Wait was pretty long too. [[HIGHLIGHT]]This place is great for groups and entertainment tho.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Lots of tv to watch on.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I went on a date here and we ordered drinks and food only. I got the Chicken sandwich and he got the Smash burger. Both came with fries and the buttermilk ranch was really good! Fries were ok. read more

Had such a fun time at Tipsy Putt in Monterey!

We went for a good activity to do in Monterrey. We ordered some drinks and did a round of putt. The idea is amazing. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Personally the space they have and the execution wasn't the best.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] It's great idea to putt and drink. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's just such a small area down stairs we finished in 20mins.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Luckily no one was behind or before us. The course is very generic each whole just no cool movement expect for one hole you have to get it to second level. That was unique and fun. Don't think the price is worth the quality for the putting. Idea is amazing though. read more

Bought a Groupon to use for the mini golf plus food deal for 4 for my family to use while in vacation, Decided to head there at 10 to beat any crowds. We waited an hour after opening to be let in because an employee did not show up to open the restaurant. That was just the beginning of a poor experience. Downstairs the golf is 9 basic golf holes using beer kegs and bricks as a theme. It is dark, warm and there were no employees in sight. The only bonus is my kids were able to try tricks shots since it was completely empty in the golf area. The food wasn't any better. We decided upon nachos to share. My husband was given a buzzer, which never went off. After 30 minutes he retrieved the now cold food that was just sitting near a warmer. It was not good to say the least. SKIP this place! Not worth any money you will pay! read more

My wife and I were looking for a place near the aquarium for lunch that could appease both us and our 3 kids. We remembered coming here years ago on our last visit, but I believe it was a different business. Honestly, I think this concept is so great that I'm shocked it hasn't caught on more. The restaurant is both a tap room, restaurant, and mini golf place. Downstairs they have a small mini golf course and on the main floor they have another type of mini golf I'm not too familiar with. I think it's more about you rolling a ball across a table top mini golf course. It looked fun, but unfortunately we just didn't have the time to play. Something to look forward to next time! When we came in, we were instantly greeted by the man working behind the bar. He ushered us over and happily helped us place our lunch orders. The menu is your standard bar fair. Our kids went with the kids corn dogs & Mac & cheese, I went with a burrito, and my wife a salad. Once our food was ready, we all gobbled everything up. My kids loved their food, my wife said the salad was fine. Nothing amazing, but still hit the spot. My burrito, once you got through the heavy use of rice, was tasty & the meat flavorful. If they had cut the rice volume down by about 1/3 it would've been top notch. In all, we're glad we opted out of eating in the aquarium and stumbled upon this restaurant. We had a great time and our only real disappointment was that we didn't have the time to play some golf while we were there. Like I said above, I guess we now have something to look forward to the next time we're here. read more

Great place to meet up with friends. Chill and laid back. We ordered drinks played a quick round of miniature golf and I lost horribly. All drinks are served off the taps, there is a very small assortment of liquor but it got the job done lol. We ordered Birria fries and the pretzels with cheese. The cheese had good flavor but too thin for my dipping cheese preference. The Birria fries were good. The meat was flavorful just not enough of it. The outside ambience I where it's at! The tables with propane fire pits and all sorts of games. It was nice! We would definitely go back and try more snacks. read more

Stopped here based on good reviews, but the experience was just okay. There was no wait (only two other families dining), yet the food took longer than expected--partly because my buzzer died. I ordered a Mexican chopped salad with chicken ($18) but received a Caesar salad instead (as pictured). My daughter's smash burger with bacon and avocado ($23) was good, and the drinks were fine. read more

I enjoyed visiting this tipsy putt location! [[HIGHLIGHT]]We visited on a slow night, basically had the putting area to ourselves, we enjoyed it.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The staff was friendly, welcoming us in and explaining that the putting area was downstairs. We ordered a couple drinks at the bar and enjoyed those while putting. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Overall a very cool vibe![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

So fun with friendly bartenders. We came to watch the World Cup games and really enjoyed our time. We were even able to watch the game as we were playing golf downstairs. Great location and delicious food. read more

What a fun spot! We stopped in on a Wednesday evening during a recent trip up the coast. You sit wherever you like and order food and drinks at the counter. We ordered the mac and cheese trio, the fish tacos and a salad with chicken. The food was pretty standard bar food, but everyone enjoyed their meals. We were delighted to see it was Trivia Night and stayed for the fun. Love that the location is close to hotels and right in the heart of Cannery Row. There are plenty of street and structure parking options nearby. Definitely a solid date night spot. read more

Fun place to grab a drink and play some mini golf. Had a great time and would go back next time I'm in the area. Conveniently located

It was fine. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The course is in the basement so if the AC isn't blasting it gets stuffy as heck; I suppose that's the point of the cold beers.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Probably fun for casual date night or kickback.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Fun but service was not it. We came here from 4 hours away and none of the employees told us that it was their "League Night", so we only got to play for about 30 minutes before they kicked us out even though we played for the Unlimited Golf. This was going to be our hangout out spot for the night. Very disappointed specially because it was not cheap. read more

Found this spot last minute and it was such a great find. When we arrived, earlier in the evening, it was fairly empty with loads of spots to sit. We stayed upstairs enjoying drinks and playing a board game (tables were very conducive to a board game). The mixed cocktails available were very strong and I had the whiskey and Coke one (forgot the name). We did explore the downstairs but decided not to play put put. After I lost to our board game, we decided to play the pool/putt putt combo game upstairs. It was fun and unique. Overall we had a great time here, highly recommend. Will definitely be back. read more

Tipsy Putt - Pubs Near Me - Monterey, California

Pretty sad spot. We went for the putt putt (from other reviews, it seems like it's better if you actually eat/drink there?) but we headed straight downstairs. It was dark and gave no instruction on where to start, we had to walk around quite a bit before even seeing the numbers (hint: look down); the holes seemed pretty random and were waaaaay too easy to get through. Even having had a drink beforehand, it wasn't hard at all - we probably finished the course in all of about 7 minutes. Definitely not worth the money if you're only going for the mini golf. Oh, and what's up with the empty glasses all over? There was a collection started at the bar and random glasses/old scorecards throughout the course, and no staff downstairs. Odd. read more

We got a beer, 2 tacos, and a cheese quesadilla. All of the items were good, we were here during happy hour, but early on a Thursday so not a lot of folks were here. Our buzzer for the food didn't work so the bartender brought us the food, which he definitely didn't have to do. My 1 ding is that I wish they didn't pre batch all of their cocktails. But I bet it keeps the costs down and speed up when the place is busy. read more

This is a quick five star review for the ambience, the beer selection and vibes. I did not eat food. On a walking tour of cannery row. Last time I was in this building it was a dark underwhelming brewery/ bar. Exemplary service. Large televisions for the football lover in your group. The beer and cocktails selection is OUTSTANDING! Yes, I used all caps. They have so am y of my favorite brewery spot from the central coast, Humble Sea, Discretionary, Soquel, Other brother in seaside. Like wow. Dustbowl and Russian River. Daaammmnnnnn. And mini golf to boot. Similar to Flastick Pub for my PNW peeps. Parking in this area sucks as it is a touristy part of Monterey. But. Worth getting off the hustle and bustle of cannery row. I saw massive French fries coming out topped with many delicious things. Do it! Treat yourself! SYOY. read more

Pretty rough (and smelly) experience at what could have been a fun outing in Monterrey. Food is basic... a slightly expanded bar food menu some done well and everything else average. Super bummer that this place has neon taco decorations, and tacos painted on their walls and they're in Monterey Bay, but they were out of fish tacos. Chicken and Carne Asada tacos were fine but unremarkable. Understand it was New Year's Day, but they only had one cook so also took a fairly long time. Also, ordering was super complex with drinks being ordered on one POS and food on another. This system created a bunch of inefficiency ("come over here... excuse me... stand over here... I can help you here... no, drinks are a separate order...") and a long line and was just unnecessary. Putt putt is nine holes in a dark downstairs that was fine, but not great. Last hole is a bit of a Hail Mary that invalidates all the scoring anyway. Keg and brick themed. Biggest issue was the bathrooms... they have a cutesy sign that says "sorry about the smell, we're working on it", but when you go in it's like raw sewage released from the 7th circle of hell. Made my daughter physically gag and lose her lunch. Seriously... they need to fix this or shut down. Must be a health issue. read more

Tipsy Putt is exactly what Monterey needed. We came for a date night and it was a total blast from start to finish. The mini-golf course is so much more creative than a typical putt-putt--each hole has its own personality, and it was a fun challenge (especially with a drink in hand!). The drinks were a huge highlight. The bartender, was super friendly and made us a couple of their signature cocktails that were delicious and unique. The whole atmosphere is just perfect--fun, relaxed, and a great way to spend an evening. This is definitely our new go-to spot for a night out. We'll be back soon! read more

$18 for 9 holes, went through them so quickly seems like everyone goes for at least 2 rounds. A little pricey for what it is and feels more like you're mini golfing in someone's parent's large basement. Wasn't crowded when we went and even got in a round of beer pong in before we left. Bar at the top is more a vibe. Probably wouldn't bring my kids but a good place for 21+ catchups/hangouts. read more

The service was really nice and was very flexible with the way we wanted to play also [[HIGHLIGHT]]the ambience was nice and overall a very underrated place to come to here in cannery row[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. Would definitely come again. read more

Such a fun spot for any time of day and any group of people! Ambiance is casual with lower lighting and music playing indoors. Music isn't quiet but also not overly loud, at least in the day time. It gives a fun vibe where you can talk loudly and laugh without feeling like you are being too loud. Acoustics are really nice here too, without that echo some places have. Kids are welcome until 7pm and staff is really great with them. My 1 year old loves waving hi and blowing kisses at the staff because they engage with him, and my 7 year old really enjoys playing the games and eating snacks. We have been three times as a family and joined the membership because it is such a great outing. Members get free golf and 1-2 Putt and discounts on everything else. It is a great choice for a group meet up since everyone can order whatever they want at the bar, kitchen, game counter walk up style, without having to worry about splitting a bill. We haven't tried the bottomless mimosas yet, but members pay $19 and non-members $39. We will have to try them sometime. The Asada fries are loaded with guac, really tasty pico de gallo, and big chunks of tender carne Asada. The churro waffle is decent: a cinnamon waffle with whipped cream, cinnamon sugar, berries and a caramel drizzle. Pretzel bites with queso are really good with a yummy white queso. Chips are a really nice crispiness but not too thin to scoop with. The cocktails are on tap and quite tasty, along with many beers to choose from, including some of our favorite local breweries. My kids love playing the table golf upstairs, mini golf downstairs, and bean bag toss on the patio. There is a beer pong set up downstairs with water cups sometimes, but we haven't tried it. There is a photo booths near the bar for $5 which is fun too. Staff is super friendly and helpful and they even remember you from visit to visit, which feels extra special. Tipsy Putt has donated to a ton of the local charities and schools that I like to support, which gives them major bonus point in my mind too. I saw a review that they do have purse hooks, but they are on all the tables and under the bar. Maybe they read the review and added them, which again gives them bonus point in my mind. Overall, we really like Tipsy Putt. Great for any age! read more

We will definitely return next time we are in Monterey. read more

Came here on a Saturday around 4:00pm. Beers were cold and delicious, and it was low key upstairs for 1-2 putt. I enjoyed the atmosphere, not too loud and not busy at all!

After some long awaited delays, tipsy putt is a great addition to Cannery Row. We went on day 1 and despite the crowds, the service was super friendly and the mini golf course was fun and efficient! Day 1 offered a membership for a year for $95. After seeing the price for one game ($15) and crunching some numbers, it was an easy sell for the annual membership (although I'm sooo sad I didn't get the $195 lifetime membership they offered 2 years ago when they first planned on opening). Either way the membership gets you free games throughout the year and a couple bucks off beers each visit. The beer selection was worth the cost of admission with local faves like Humble Sea Socks and Sandals and Alvarado St. Mai Tai PA for decent prices given the location. The mini golf isn't really the draw here but it was still a fun, challenging course to enjoy with friends. We didn't get to get the 1-2 Putt but given the hooting and hollering it looked like a good time. At $12/game again the membership looks to be paying off with future visits. I ordered the tinga tacos and they were a good value at $4.50 each. I saw a plate of nachos and immediately had fomo as they were piled high enough that I saw some toppings fall to the ground. Overall this will be a great place for locals, visitors visiting locals, and visitors looking for a family friendly (and 21+ friendly spot after hours) near Cannery Row. I'll def be getting my $95 worth! read more

This review is for the food only. I didn't make it to play tonight on the grand opening event. Food is serve service with a text alert to let you know it's ready. But really, check it after 30 minutes. I ordered the Barbacoa, Pork Belly and Fish Tacos. They are all a bit different but I think the fish taco was really solid with lots of flavor and spice. There is local beer on tap as well as other regional beers. Join the Tipsy Putt Club for discount online or via the app. This is truly a party atmosphere. I see it as a locals bar or an old school college bar. The special today is a lifetime membership for $299. It's good at all five locations in NorCal. read more
