Circle City Tavern - Gastropubs Near Me - Corona, California

Great spot to grab food and hang out -- unless you're hoping to watch a specific game. The staff was surprisingly strict and impatient when customers asked if a TV could be changed. With more than five TVs in the place, it seems unreasonable that a single game request couldn't be accommodated, especially during playoff season when multiple leagues are active. Having an East Coast baseball game on in SoCal just didn't make much sense. Read the room. What really stood out was the rude response from the older bar lead with glasses. A simple and casual request to switch one TV was met with an abrupt "we can't change TVs after 5pm." The interaction felt unnecessarily dismissive and unfriendly. Overall, the atmosphere and food were cool, but the customer service around game requests definitely needs improvement. Decided to head out after our first drink. read more

Went to Circle City Tavern for the first time ever.. I was charged $45 for ONE shot of Fortaleza Reposado with pineapple juice. When I questioned it, the bartender (John) told me it's because the bottle is "$300" and only yields about 18 shots. That explanation doesn't add up -- the same bottle is widely available for around $150 retail, and bars don't pay retail pricing. To make it worse, I went to The Brass Tap right after and ordered the exact same drink for $15. Same tequila, same order, a third of the price. Safe to say I won't be returning...That's not "premium pricing," that's taking advantage. read more

When we came here, it was a Wednesday night so I guess you can say it was "Country Night" with live music. Our visit was two weeks ago and now I finally have time to write about it. We made reservations for 8 (including kids). I like the place. It's nice and the vibes and decor matches what they're going for. Parking is good and seating is decent for a small restaurant with booth to the side and tables on the middle section near the bar. They also have outside seating too with bathrooms along the back area. Music is definitely loud and we found ourselves talking louder just to communicate with one another. We ordered from the happy hour menu. Happy hour ended at 6pm on Wednesday and we made it right before! We got a variety of things. The tostadas were delicious. The adobo chicken tacos were stuffed and had a kick to it. Really flavorful. The garlic noodles were a bit too salty. The loaded pepperoni flat bread was decent. Just too much dough. The jalapeño eggrolls were good, definitely tasted better with the sauce it came with. The tavern nachos were mid and the "chicken tenders" for the kids were ok. No seasoning whatsoever on the chicken and very plain but fries were good. Drinks were a mixed review. The smoked old fashion was fire and definitely well done. The margarita flight was interesting. It's only served Tuesday but they made an exception for us since the waitress didn't know it's only for Tuesday and other guests got it too. The spicy margarita was good, the strawberry one didn't taste like strawberry. The mango didn't taste like mango. We were a bit confused but it is what it is, not all drinks can win. The golden sunset margarita was gross, it was really sour for some reason like they forgot the tequila. We're not one to complain and dealt with it. The city smash was good. Definitely worth it for happy hour. Overall service was good, food was decent and environment is kid friendly. Live music is definitely a plus. Definitely wanting to come back and check out other items and drinks. A good place to meet friends up and hang out. read more

First time here & I was NOT disappointed! The bao buns were great. The Brussel sprouts, so flavorful, the steak sandwich is absolutely amazing!

This place is a welcome surprise in this city. The food is not like any other bar food. Its more of an upscale accessible all American with a fusion twist. They got such a wide ranging menu from fish tacos to caviar and cioppino. They has so many varieties, there wipp always be something for everyone in the party. Their alcohol selection is vast and the decor is very earthy and warm. Love the atmosphere and the server was so attentive and great with checking up on us. I had the fish taco blackened with truffle parmesan fries. Well worth it. My friend got a pesto sandwich and it was good from what I gather. So many things to try. I'll come back on their band night on Tuesday and try more stuff. Give it a try. read more

Everything is supposed to be handcrafted. I believe that most of it is. Everything we ordered was hot, juicy, crispy, tasty, flavorful, whatever it was supposed to be. Starting with the cocktails and mimosas, all delicious. Espresso martini made with homemade espresso. Bomb. Bloody Mary was delicious with the smoked salt on the rim, the bacon strip was actually still hot off the grill and was a solid piece of bacon. Next, the double tavern burger with bacon. Yes, it's gonna cost you, but I assure you it was worth all $30. Everything was juicy and fresh. Only thing was the bottom bun got soggy pretty quick, but since it was so good I'm not complaining much. The regular fries were crispy and tasty. The crispy chicken sandwich was legit. Juicy and large piece of chicken freshly fried. The Calabrian chili slaw and a nice little sweet heat crunch to it and the pesto smacked. Got the cilantro garlic fries with this and those were amazing too. The ranch. You can taste the fresh dill in it, rich and tangy, always get sides of ranch. The staff was very attentive and made sure everyone was taken care of. In addition to that, the entire set up in open and very clean. We ate outside on the back patio which is full of games and things for anyone to do really (cornhole, big jenga blocks, etc). Lots of room out there. Now they just need some live summer music out there and some concert night drink specials and it's a perfect spot read more

I love that Corona is adding new businesses to the downtown area. I decided to try this place as it's 5 minutes from home. I love the decor and the open air vibe. It looks like a tavern. Lol! There are several TVs around the restaurant so I'd say it's great for sports fans. The servers are very attentive and friendly and seem happy to be there. The food is mediocre and a tad bit over priced. I had fish and chips which was fried too long and not very flavorful. I also has the cesear salad which comes with anchovies . (Ask to have those removed). The portions or sizeable and can be shared. Overall it's a cool place to hang out for drinks and sports, food is mid. Also check their website or social media for events and entertainment. read more

I stumbled on this place on a Monday afternoon after studying (there's a library just a quick walk nearby in case folks are interested in taking a break. I was able to attend their Happy Hour which on Mondays are from 3pm to close which I loved! I was really impressed by how modern and decorative the restaurant was and they had plenty of seating inside, on their patio, and even at the bar with lots of tvs. It was pretty empty when I went but it was also a Monday. I ordered a cocktail (Crimson Drop), an order of fries, and their Tavern Burger. I also chuckled because on their menu they had Girl Dinner which if you know, you know. I'll likely order that next time. The fries were the perfect amount of crispy and flavorful. The cocktail was a little bit on the sweeter side for my taste but for $8 it delivered! I wasn't impressed with their burger--there wasn't enough sauce for me so it tasted pretty bland and I was expecting more. Maybe their other burgers are better? I originally wanted their happy hour nachos which didn't come with protein and I wasn't able to add any protein to it unless I bought the "regular-priced" one which I also thought was a little strange? Anyways, I had a nice time though enjoying the ambience, the bartender was sweet and I really love the space. Next time, I'll have to bring some friends with me! read more

Such a cute tavern with good food. When you walk in, the staff are welcoming and friendly. The music is upbeat but not too loud, so you can still easily have a conversation. I ordered the mushroom risotto. Honestly, I'd give it about a 7/10. I would have preferred it to be a little creamier, but the flavor was still good. My friend ordered the garlic noodles and those were delicious. We also had two drinks, which were good. Our waiter was attentive and friendly, which made the experience even better. Will be back, to give other options a try. read more

My wife and I decided to try Circle City Tavern for her birthday thanks to the reviews on Yelp. We both had the Argentinian Steak Sandwich with salad. The simple tossed salad consisted of fresh, thin-sliced romaine, a few chunks of tomatoes and shredded cheddar cheese. The hanger steak was cooked to order and sliced. The aoli and chimichurri were great complements to the streak as we're the cherry tomato halves and pickled red onion slivers. The melted provolone on grilled ciabatta bread worked perfectly with the steak. If the hot, milk chocolate filled beignets are too much for you, try finishing your meal with their Botanic Bloom non-alcoholic drink. It's sweet and "botanic." Our waitress was friendly and efficient, despite recently returning from maternity leave. She came to take our order just as we had decided on the sandwiches. Uncanny. She also came by our table twice to make sure we enjoyed our meal. Apologies for forgetting her name. The interior was a typical, contemporary, open air gastropub. Unfortunately, it looked out over an asphalt parking lot. No trees, no bushes, no pedestrians. read more

Circle City Tavern - Argentinian Steak Sandwich and Botanic Bloom. Couldn't help but take a few bites before taking this oicture - Gastropubs Near Me - Corona, California

This was my first time visiting--my clients have always spoken highly of this place, so I was excited to finally try it on Friday, April 10. I ordered a glass of wine that wasn't part of happy hour, followed by an Old Fashioned from the happy hour menu. When it was served without a cherry, I asked about it and was told that happy hour Old Fashioneds don't include maraschino cherries. While it may seem like a small detail, it made the experience feel less thoughtful and took away from the overall impression. Unfortunately, this alone would make me reconsider returning, as I prefer a more consistent and polished dining experience. read more

THEY RUINED MY 3 PIECE ARMANI SUIT THAT COST 2000.00.....ordered the Lamb Burger....Yummy, dont get the in any other restaurant....so I picked it up and immediately a ton of liquid fell on my pants....I put the Burger down and wiped my expensive pant...but I was hungry and wanted to taste that Lamb...so I picked it and as I was getting closed to my mouth, the whole Bun disintergrated and fell on my Coat...what the Chef did was put all kinds of sauces, watery tomatoes and other stuff. Lamb was tough, probably frozen, had to pay extra for a double patty. Gave my Armani suit to the Salvation Army. (just kidding). Next time I go there, I will only wear my undershirt and Undies...and leave my expensive clothes in the car. read more

Perfectly balanced, smooth, and topped with shaved chocolate that takes it to another level. They were so delicious and well-made that we ordered more than one!

We had the pesto caprese flatbread, stellar and I am not a fan of tomatoes, but let me tell u I ate every single one of those tomatoes! Arugula was a great touch and the balsamic was a punch of tartness u can't pass up! Cilantro garlic fries were insanely good and the Korean short rib mini tacos I couldn't get enough of...service was above and beyond, bartenders handed out some amazing libations!
