On the list of bikini bars in Orange County, Los Alamitos' Sportsman belongs at or near the top-due in no small part to the fact that the women are drop-dead gorgeous. That aside, the place is kept clean, neat and simple. The walls aren't adorned with useless kitsch or gaudy beer posters, and the wooden floors are complemented by red-brick walls whose sweeping arches are filled with large mirrors, creating the illusion of an even greater space. There are three pool tables and two electronic dartboards, as well as the video game Golden Tee. All suds come in a bottle, but there is a full bar. Read more about this Orange County bar or club >>
Don't strut into the Squires Inn expecting Buckingham Palace: you might get a dart thrown at your neck. This place is for serious drinkers who want to enjoy a game of pool on one of three tables. The room is small and dimly lit, and seating choices are simple—grab a small table in the corner or belly up to the bar. Stiff drinks are served in the full bar and there's a small selection of beers in bottles and on draft—think Newcastle and Budweiser. Read more about this Orange County bar or club >>
http://www.redondobrewery.com At the northern edge of Downtown Fullerton, in the Villa Del Sol building, Stadium Tavern is the last full-fledged bar in the iconic Orange County drinking district. Despite being decorated with assorted sports memorabilia and multiple flat-screen TVs, Stadium manages to be inviting to those with no interest in athletic events. The complimentary popcorn from a throwback air popper doesn't hurt. With a respectable selection of 32 beers on tap, full bar and a line of signature cocktails, Stadium has one of the most distinctive drink menus in Fullerton. Be sure to check out the Fullerton Lemonade, featuring a blend of Vodka, peach and rasberry Schnapps and lemonade, it packs a tasty punch. An outdoor patio, complete with heat lamps, looks out onto Wilshire Avenue. Happy hour is Monday through Friday, 4 to 6 p.m., with $2.50 domestics, $3.50 imports and $5 well drinks.

http://www.trepanyhouse.org Tucked into Los Feliz's Center for Inquiry-West, the Trepany House at the Steve Allen Theater is an intimate performing venue that presents a wide array of concerts, plays, vaudeville and comedy. When the theater first began putting on shows, it focused on comedians like Dana Gould, Emo Philips, Mary Lynn Rajskub and Kids in the Hall, as well as theatrical productions and esoteric philosophical and metaphysical explorations by everyone from NASA scientists to members of the Church of Satan. Before long, the theater also brought in live musicians, including the daft ragtime diva Janet Klein, Lavender Diamond and the charming pop duo the Ditty Bops mingling with harder-edged sounds from Rancid and Dethklok. Added to the mix is the center's ongoing fascination with horror and film culture, with presentations and screenings by the likes of Toby Hooper, Joe Dante, David Cronenberg, Miranda July and James Franco. In homage to its namesake inspiration, the late comedian Steve Allen, the theater is an unusual nexus point of scientific curiosity and vaudevillian variety.

http://www.stubriks.com A steakhouse that co-owner Craig Voorting says is "all about the steak." With the best damn steak this side of a factory town, as well as a pretty decent selection of white meat and seafood. Read more about this Orange County bar or club >>
http://www.sundriedtomatocafe.com Rack of lamb is as ubiquitous in fancy American bistros as falafels in Middle Eastern bazaars, but the Sundried Tomato Cafe prepares a version fit for hoity-toity cavemen-meaty bones doused with a tart cranberry sauce, the lamb cooked to pink perfection. Great, zesty namesake cream soup as well. Read more about this Orange County bar or club >>
http://www.sutraoc.com On weekend nights, Sutra is a typical club scene of hot bods rubbing to thumping beats, bathed with strobe lights, and soaked in booze. But there's another face to the restaurant-a quieter, more intimate side for those more interested in cuddling up with their honey, and less in picking up a new one. Feed each other things creatively cooked. Sip drinks immaculately mixed. Enjoy the romance. Thank us later. Read more about this Orange County bar or club >>
http://www.swallowsinn.com The Swallow's Inn, located near the Mission San Juan Capistrano, represents a bit of an anomaly in Orange County. There aren't many honky-tonks in the area, but if you're going to check out such a watering hole in the land of citrus, the Swallow's Inn is worth the drive. Small, with dark wooden tables and high chairs, it's not uncommon to see cowboy boots, big buckles and Stetson hats crowding the dance floor. The Swallow's boasts a full bar, as well as a nice selection of bottled beers and eight brews on tap. Yet what makes the Swallow's Inn special isn't the booze; it's the live entertainment occurring almost every night. The small stage hosts a bevy of up-and-coming national and local country acts. Even if you consider yourself less than a fan of country, we defy you stay off the dance floor--especially after you've had a couple of beers and a shot of Jack Daniel's.

http://www.theswigfullerton.com Nestled deep within an industrial park on Fender Avenue, the Swig Bar is a homey little watering hole just big enough to house the employees of nearby businesses. It may not look like much inside or out, but it is a comfortable place to have a brew after a long day at work. Of course, it doesn't hurt that the establishment is also a bikini bar teeming with beautiful, scantily clad barmaids. In addition to the eye candy, the Swig offers a modest selection of bottled beers, as well a few on tap including Miller Lite, Coors Light and the choice of every hipster worth his salt, Pabst Blue Ribbon. There are a couple of billiard tables and a Ping-Pong table in the back of the room. Flat-screen TVs line the walls, with sports being shown at all times.

http://www.theswingingdoor.com Though it's nestled among the quaint, idyllic brick buildings of Old Town Tustin, there's something staunchly divey about the Swinging Door. Its small, rectangular-shaped concrete floor is host to a couple of pool tables and a row of barstools. Though one might expect an older crowd to frequent this establishment, it actually caters to a college-aged clientele, typically featuring electronic music pulsating loudly through its sound system speakers. And be prepared: This place gets packed. The full bar serves up stiff cocktails courtesy of bikini-clad barmaids as well as a nice selection of brews on tap including Newcastle, Pabst Blue Ribbon, Stella, Michelob Ultra and Pyramid Hefeweizen.

http://www.taixfrench.com The Taix family has been running this French restaurant since 1927, and in this location as a virtual Echo Park landmark since the early 1960s. There are six banquet rooms, as well as a 21-&-over live-music bar. For all of the European elegance of the banquet rooms, it's in the restaurant's 321 Lounge that Taix feels warmest and homiest. In recent years, the bar's humble floor-level stage in front of a simple brick-wall backdrop has borne witness to a surprising diversity of crucial local musicians, ranging from straight-ahead country-rock dreamers to truly out-there funk-jazz experimentalists. Low-key indie rock bands trade off with raging instrumental surf combos, followed by sweet pure-pop balladeers. As wild as the music sometimes get, the restaurant has a contrastingly traditional and continental ambiance, due in large part to a menu that's heavy on rustic French fare like duck a la orange, braised rabbit, butterflied trout, onion soup and escargot. Naturally, with such a fervent Francophile emphasis, the restaurant and full bar uncork a broad selection of fine French wines. Valet parking is available in Taix's lot, and metered parking can be found on the street. No cover. Read more about this Orange County bar or club >>
http://www.tantalumrestaurant.com Nestled within the Marina Pacifica is Tantalum, an Asian-fusion restaurant that maintains a refreshingly intimate feel in a large space. Though the restaurant is tiered, with tables placed at various elevations, the best seat in the house is at the 75-foot-long mahogany bar. Indulge in a Tahitian Moon, a fruity, vodka-fueled concoction, as you watch the sun slowly melt into the marina. Tantalum carries dozens of red and white wines, as well as a variety of beers and sake. While there is a DJ on Friday and Saturday nights, it seems only those with a bit of liquid courage dance the night away. Read more about this Orange County bar or club >>
http://www.tapasflavorsofspain.com Tapas is a Jack-of-all-trades: restaurant by day, nightclub by night, and proud host for the occasional quinceañera or wedding party. Settled on an elevated perch, the waters of Newport Beach can easily be seen from this eclectically stylish venue. Serving moderately priced Spanish fare, Tapas keeps its kitchens open for the nighttime crowd that comes for the lively club scene. Different nights host different events, so you can go salsa dancing on Saturday and shake your ass to the beats of your favorite dance tune at Club Focus on Tuesdays. Whatever your preference, Tapas offers a warm environment with beach-side style, perfect for a night out on the town. Read more about this Orange County bar or club >>
