I got in after the kitchen was closed, sit on the bar. I asked the bartender if they still serve food, he run to the kitchen and got me soup. Chicken and bread for free. Was very nice and even refilled the chicken. If that's not enough T he got me a shot on the house. Very nice place. High recommendation read more

Unassuming spot for a great burger! Not a huge beer variety (15 taps including lite beers), but they make up for it in their whisky collection. Sit anywhere, order at the bar and pick it up when it's ready. A collection of games and a few TVs. read more

Great food and even better service! It's a bar, but the service here is nothing like it. And the German food is awesome! A must on your trip to Mammoth. read more

Make sure you get in early for happy hour, they go by a clock on the wall that seems to be running a bit fast (by about 15-20 minutes). Still we did manage to get our order in and enjoyed the early evening deals. Beers are $2 off the list price, and they have a good selection. There are also cocktail and whisky specials, which is appropriate since they have tons of whiskeys. For food, we had the fish tacos, quesadilla and fish a chips, all $5 a plate during happy hour. The consensus favorite was the fish tacos, but I did like the fish and chips as well. It is a divey spot that harkens back to Mammoth's non-Corporate beginnings. read more

The large cook makes blatantly racist incredibly rude remarks and the rest of the staff hasn't caught on somehow or just won't do anything about it read more

Great dive bar that's right across the street from the village. They had a good selection of beers on tap and daily happy hour 4-7. Unforunately, I missed HH but prices are good for the area. We got some tots and the house cheese sauce was a great pairing with the tots. They were perfectly crispy and soft inside. Food came out super fast too. Order everything at the bar and pick up food in the back when your pager goes off. I'll have to make my way back here for HH. read more

Place was amazing for New Years Eve! Stopped in to watch the fireworks across the street and found this gem. Locals and amazing bartenders! read more

Mammoth restaurants best kept secret. Walk downstairs into a fun little dive bar but be prepared to pleasantly surprised by some delicious food. Chef Trey whips up notable taste far bigger than his little kitchen. The sous vide chicken bowl over rice or cabbage is topped with a salsa fresca with depth in spice. Delicious and healthy! The wagu burger is the best burger on the mountain. Best of all, Chef Trey comes out to check how you are doing and for feedback. His electric smile is backed by a clear passion for his culinary art. In mountain towns where people give moderate service, it's refreshing to see someone genuinely concerned for your experience. Do yourself a favor by skipping the expensive restaurants for a night and treat yourself to Chef Trey. I'll bet you come back for seconds. Order at the bar but don't hesitate to walk around the corner where he is whipping up his delish food. read more

Negative stars for this place. Don't come here if you're a POC. The bouncer was extremely rude to my group probably cause we were the only POC at the bar. Their loss, I probably could've spent $$$ here if I wanted to. But whatever, either way did not feel comfortable here at all. I would recommend walking a minute or two to the Hawaiian themed tiki bar. read more

This place is a great place to sit down for happy hour after a long day on the slopes. Their alcohol selection (especially beer) is wonderful as there are plenty of options to choose from both on and off tap. The bar food is actually pretty good and the portions are just right. If you like to play bar games, converse with newfound friends, drink good beer, and get your munch on after hitting the slopes, this is the perfect place for you to try out! It is only a short walk from the main lodge at the Mammoth resort. read more

This place is a very good dive bar and the service from Casey (Bartender) was Great, but the food had a little bit to be desired. We ordered a Happy Hour Sausage and we received a Weiner from a Supermarket, The happy hour Pretzel was very good and we enjoyed it. read more

Manager or owner literally told us to get out as they were at 25% capacity. Totally fine with that, but could have suggested to wait outside until a table became available. Dude didn't even try to keep 4 guys who were ready to dump a bunch of money in that place. Walked up the street and got treated properly. Their loss. Learn some management skills. Don't turn away business without trying to be accommodating. Will never go back. read more

Wonderful service, fantastic food! Great location to everything and Ryan is the best bar tender you can ask for, have him curate you a whiskey tasting. Try the spicy mustard - you won't regret it. read more

When I was done being a tourist, and posing like I had money, I Irish-exited my friends and came here to relax with my fellow chill-the-rest-of-the-day drinkers. After my amigos noticed my disappearance, the FOMO texts slowly trickled in. I gave up my newly found sanctuary out of pity. They've always been good to me. Against my better judgment, I surmised I could share this with them. Regrettably, it became our new go-to spot for the week. Ehh live and learn. I really enjoyed this bar. It's definitely a bit "divey" but in the exact way you would want it to be. Just down some stairs from the main street, they have beer bottle caps on the ceiling, the salty local in the corner with a dark beer, a pool table, just above dimly-lit ambiance, jukebox, bar food, seasoned/witty bartenders, two desperate looking younger dudes on the prowl... brings a tear to my eye. read more

Absolute worst bar i've ever been to smells inside like mildew and the bar tenders are rude

We walked in and ordered food. We didn't hear the buzzer- so we checked. The manager yelled at us and berated us for missing it. Then said they had been waiting for us for 30 minutes. We walked in 20 minutes prior so that was impossible . They didn't make the food we ordered and the manager told us to take what get. The food we had to take was obviously given to us because it was the worst, fatty corn-beef they had - it was inedible. He seemed to be looking for a fight. read more

We heard this place was okay and open until 9. My husband and I went inside to order drinks, my husband had to adjust his mask, and the bartender immediately barked at him and said, "Sir you need to have a mask on." It was obvious my husband had a mask on and was adjusting the tie in the back that came undone. Okay, fine. We ordered two overly priced gross drinks and food. We went on the patio and were drinking our drinks, and the same bartender called us up to get our food. My husband stood up without his mask on and the same dude barked and him again and told him to "put your mask on" in a very rude way. Dude, we're outside and you're not bringing our food to us. Terrible customer service and crappy drinks. I totally understand the mask mandate, but this bartender was awful. Never going back. Don't waste your money and go to the hula place! read more

After a day of work, skiing, biking or hiking, this is where locals go to quench their thirst. Oh yeah, and Totchos (Tater Tot Nachos) .

Absolutely terrible service. Overpacked, smelled awful, server cussed at my group without warning and shoved me into the bar declaring that she worked there....generally speaking it was the worst apres vibes I've ever experienced in a ski town. read more

One of the few cool spots in Mammoth for Apres! I really really really am very reluctant to write this review b/c I don't want anyone to know about this place! So, if you are a douche-bag, please don't come here and ruin it for the rest of us! Thank you! Starting this season, they are now serving hard liquor, so you can blackout sooner rather than later. Ambience is very cool, everyone is really friendly and that's not because I'm hot... jk. This is the locals hangout, so lots of patrons are people who work on the mountain, and then the rest of us are semi-locals (definition: we are in Mammoth every weekend for 5 months straight). Please leave your drama outside the door, because this place is too cool for that! read more

We came in first thing the bartender was on one about me adjusting my mask. When my food was ready I stood up and the bartender bitches about my mask not on. I spent $65 dollars on two drinks and appetizers. When the food showed up at the table I told him to shove it up his ass! Fuck this place!!! Don't waste your time read more

Immaculate vibes. Meet me at the foozball table and it's on. Service also on point. Never eaten food there tho.

Great place for Happy Hour food and beer. They changed the menu to German fare. Bar tenders are great and selections for beer and cocktails are the best in Mammoth. read more

Highly recommended for the Apres scene. We came for the pub but stayed for the sous vide chicken bowls. Fresh approach towards food.

Great dive-style place with a terrific beer selection, and absolutely no pretension. My beer-loving friends and I arrived in Mammoth, and set out to share a good IPA. However, we found that many local places only carried a small variety of beers, and the resort didn't offer much choice (most everyone carried some of the local Mammoth Brewing Co. offerings). And twice when we ordered our beers, the kegs blew. It was enough to drive us to wine. But Clocktower Cellar Pub saved us. They had Sculpin, Lagunitas Brown Shugga, Green Flash IPA, and several other good/interesting but not geeky (like the Underground offers across the street) beers on tap and in bottles. I loved that their pub food took up just a page of their menu (in large type), but their wide selection of whisky and beer was lovingly detailed in much smaller print. They also pour a mean (aka, strong) cocktail at reasonable prices. Better yet, it's underground. And anything that's cool enough to be in a basement always gets my vote. read more

We enjoyed this gem of a pub. Many great beer choices on tap, well over 10 quality craft beers. They also have a huge selection of whiskey's, some rare ones. Bartender was a young fellow (to me ;), he was very knowledgeable and helpful, gave us tasters to help us decide which drinks to have. We had happy hour specials, great prices and very yummy pub food, tater tots stood out :) The vibe/decor is quirky as a pub should be. read more

Clocktower Cellar Pub - My first Guinness, I like much better beer now ;) - Pubs Near Me - Mammoth Lakes, California

This is exactly what we were looking for last night (around 9 PM on Friday). Regular bar, foosball, pool, tons of beers, room and a mellow vibe. Didn't have much time to hang, but seems like a good spot and we'll be back! read more

Really cool atmosphere and vibe. Decent selection of drafts and an excellent whiskey selection. Some of the best I've ever seen! I had a good time playing pool and watching the game and I couldn't wait to bring more friends later that night. The only complaint I have is with the service. There is really only one bartender and one bar back. The bar back walks around kind of sluggishly but the bartender is on his game. I brought a group of friends and my mom came with us. She ordered 3 shots of whiskey and I guess the bartender misunderstood her-it was loud in there- because he came off really aggressive. His words were "I don't have time to bullshit- if you're not ready, I'll have to check with other customers and comeback to you." I know it's a bar but his lack of patience and language came off really unprofessional. I get it man, if they're slammed, which he said he wasn't, then you gotta be fast and hop around. My mom was confused and tried to give him the benefit of the doubt but he came back and repeated the order verbatim. So he did hear her. We wanted to spend the rest of the night there but he was so rude it really killed our buzz. So we went to the tiki bar down the street and had a great time. We are actually staying at the hotel connected to the pub, but we won't be coming back. I think the bartenders name was Kyle? Anyway. If you drink here be prepared to have some confusing lectures at the counter. There are certainly other places in town. read more

If you like bourbon, scotch, whiskey, or beer, this is your place. They have an incredible selection and a friendly and knowledgable staff. If you're in Mammoth, stop by! read more

See all

This is the spot to be if you're looking to go out in Mammoth mountain. Solid selection of beers at a fair price point (recommend the Epic IPA). The place get's busy and forms a line. Also, this place runs on Mountain time, so don't plan to head here at 10 pm. They offer foosball and pool, which are a blast to hit. Highly recommend this spot! read more

THE place to feel like a local. The cliques are alive and well, but the pours are strong and if you are on the good side of the bartender the service is consistent. Much better on weeknights. You might as well drink in your hotel or room on the weekends since they really screen hard at the door and emphasize letting in locals first. read more

Worst bar I've ever been too. If you are not a local DO NOT GO. I went with some of my friends and if you are anything but over 50 years old and am a local they will screw you over. The bouncer roughs you up for how you look, and the bartender slipped something in my girlfriends drink and the rest of the night I had to continuously check on her and was scared for her, as well as the next day she was throwing up profusely. I believe something was put in her drink so DO NOT GO HERE. There is an excellent bar right across the street called the Lakanuki that has a DJ, good vibe bar and is the movement for people from out of town. Take my advice or not but I believe no one should go there and the place should be checked. read more

The happy hour is the best in town!! Everything from street tacos to burgers and burritos.. strong drinks and over 100 Whiskeys!! Sit outside on the patio! Yes!! They do make you wear a mask until seated!! Don't be that guy. read more

This place is horrible! Overly corowded and the bar tenders discriminate. Also they dont know the difference between a real id and a fake id. Not only that but the bartender was very rude and threatened to take my California drivers license because he thought it was fake. If i had a fake id it wouldnt be my drivers license. read more

Great Happy Hour prices on draft brews!! Food was pretty bland, especially the pork schnitzel. The bar has a cool vibe, but it's listed as a sports bar, and while there are small screens scattered about, it's not great for quality viewing. read more

We gave it a shot and we lost. This is a bar first and foremost so don't expect waiters or a quiet dinner. You have to order your own food at the bar and than W A I T (a very long time) for the food to come out of the very S L O W kitchen. The fish tacos weren't that good anyway even though someone had recommended the place and that dish. Oh well live and learn. Go to Burgers instead!!! read more

Heavy heart. Went in tonight been going there for many years. My kiddo is on the ski team with the owner's twins. But tonight will be my last. Door man said I was behind a party of 7 so outside wait. Which is cool covid and local. So then a couple roll in in a Range Rover. They go in and come out so cool they are behind me. Then party of seven gets seated. The door man, Jeremy , seats the Range Rover folks and has the nerve to tell me they were there first. He knows it I know it. It's why local business can't make it in a ski town which is sad. My last time sad day, will miss the tots and bourbon. read more

Food was 4 star, drinks were 3 star. The bartender was a complete ahole. 'Kyler' thinks he knows it all. He makes it a point to turn his back on you mid sentence, bark towards you if you happen to ask a question about the menu. And God forbid you ask about the composition of a beer he's serving!? FYI, I'm a certified Cicerone. And I work in the industry. He's telling customers how the bar buys some of their whiskeys at Costco, (if I was a total dick, I would call the local ABC inspector and have your license suspended, because that's clearly against the law.) Airing his dislike toward his wholesaler for the whole bar to hear and the 'douche tourists' he has to serve. You work downtown Mammoth dude! Total crap bartender. Would not dare hire him at my establishment. read more

One of the best bars in Mammoth for Happy Hour. Great beer selection, friendly bartenders, decent food. Totchos are a recommendation.

Real mammoth spirit! Love the place! Go there every time I'm in Mammoth for the warmth and coziness:) Great place! read more
