Vibe: Quaint haunt with gusto

Stepping inside Oc Local Taproom, you are greeted by a near perfect ambiance marked by friendly faces in a warm and inviting environment. The draw doesn't end there, with their local craft beers and innovative cocktails being the star of the show. While the music could use a bit of tuning up and the setting may not scream romantic date night, it's a spot that caters competently to group outings.

    Extensive selection, local craft beers, and delicious innovative cocktails.

  • Okay Ambiance

    Likes the remodel, but feels the inside needs to be softened.

Perks: Service trumps deafening clatter

With a service that's been described as friendly, speedy, and consistently creating positive experiences, the Oc Local Taproom seemingly ticks most boxes. They accommodate large groups with aplomb, kids feel welcome and they allow pets, making it family and pet-friendly. The outdoor patio is a go-to spot that's spacious, comfortable, and loaded with games. However, prepare yourself for a military grade noise level that most find too high.

  • Great For Groups

    Accommodates large groups comfortably with plenty of seating and great service.

  • Okay To Park

    Parking situation is mentioned but without clear positive or negative lean.

  • Hard To Hear

    Noise levels are deafening, making conversations very difficult to have.
