After trying to get to Sonoma County - with the 37 being closed & the usual route being buggered up with all the rerouted traffic - this was the perfect stop! Music was not my favorite-granted just walked in and it was what was playing. Bar tender was awesome - service great-was offered a hot dog which may just happen after a few more drinks! read more

Consistently have a bad time here, customers and bar tenders are barely friendly. Not inviting, not fun and bartender was extremely rude. They overcharge you! The location is good so I've tried multiple times to be accepted there but it really just is a shit bar. If you want to hang out with a ton of old white men and sassy bartenders have at it read more

Dings is a grate spot very chill and bar tender are cool kaylin is awesome. She was cool and friendly

A friend told us to go check out "Dings" we must of passed up the place twice before we realized where it was. The Dings sign needs to be lit up, Im sure it would bring more people in if the Sign was visible. We stopped for a drink and to check out this place a few months ago. It was chill with a few people around the bar talking and having a laugh. The bartender greeted us with a smile and introduced herself, Shay served us a couple of beers from the tap. Really enjoyed the taste of The Firestone blood orange beer. There is 2 pool tables and a smoke area facing the street. Has been our go to place since! read more

Dings in Fairfield has great service. This is a very chill spot and would recommend stopping by.

No food service well served my drink got it correct ! no smile no inter action. Then charged me 6.50 for a shot. Ok but I gave her a 20.00 cash and happen to forget the 10.00 bill As she stood in the back and did whatever for a long time I caught her attention and said I gave you a 20.00'she just reached over and gave me a 10??? How were you so sure that's what I was missing ??? During the returned money Never a word LIKE "I m sorry" nothing bitch that's my 10.00'hard earned money and you can't even say sorry "IF IT WAS A MISTAKE". I LOVE DIVE BARS BUT NOT FUCKING THIEVES WITH NO MANNERS GUESS IM SAYING BE FAKER WHEN YOUR RIPPING ME OFF to my FACE!!!! read more

Stood at the bar while the bartender just looked at me and continued cutting limes. Walked away and she served everyone at the bar. Won't be back read more

Great local hangout. For socializing or perhaps business. Has a nice outdoor area as well. Under half a mile from highway 80. Great service and nice people. The best in Fairfield. read more

Good food, good service, good drinks. I went on a date there. Wasn't a good date, but the environment was good and so was the service. Ma'am has a perfect pour and a winning smile. read more

My husband went to that bar last week and he had 3 shots of "tequila " mind you that he's not a light weight drinker, he got really bad and he got alcohol poisoning, I really don't know what he got served but we ended up in the emergency room, also he tip in cash and he cross the tip line on the receipt and the bartender got herself a 35% gratuity on the card plus the other $20 he had given her in cash. So we paid almost $60 on tips and a horrible night at the hospital, SMH read more

Awesome spot highly recommended...great dive bar for locals and people passing thru... thanks everyone for making me feel like a regular and Jimmie for being cool ass dude. read more

You can't tell from the outside that this is a bar. I'd say this is the nicest one in Fairfield. I always enjoy playing pool which is $1 and you have to buy a drink to be able to play. Several TVs with the game on. Chill vibe. Sporty decor. Good drinks and good times. read more

This place is a gem , googles it last minute and was not disappointed. Jenna made us all feel very welcome, worth the drive, I live in Sacramento. read more

Me doing a check-in... replies to my check-in: *WTF are you doing there? *You trying to pick up on parolees? Ok, so I wouldn't go walkin into Dings by myself. They recently went and got a shiny new re-model. So, don't go trying to enter through the back door anymore - it's closed and now part of the extended bar. It's a bit brighter and lighter, but it's basically the same ol' Dings. Cute bartender (even though he's an A's fan) and full of characters... and, it's pretty much the only "decent" place in the area to get your crunk on. read more

Pro: Karaoke; dress code is about what NOT to wear (no wife beaters / white t-shirts, no caps, do-rags); very friendly staff and patrons (cute bartender); not a large liquor selection, but they have the good basics; Jukebox of oldies; Heineken & Widmer Hef. on tap ($3.50); mixed drinks not weak, not strong: just right; about 5 TVs playing cable movie channels Con: 3 out of the 5 beers on tap are Bud, Bud Light & Coors Light; small mixed drink glasses, so their Beefeater Gin & Tonic + White Russian = $9.75 is not as good of a deal compared to the $9 version of the same combo you can get a few blocks away at Harry's with their larger glasses; well Vodka not as good as some others; read more

See all

Small place. Great cold drinks. Lots of fireball mixes. Great place to socialize and enjoy music and sports. I love the energy in this spot. Lots of locals and police always camping out. Be careful when drinking. Have a chaperone if you can. This is a local pub. Pool tables. Jukebox with lots of good music. Bartender is on it. Snacks available. Close to the fwy and food spots. A walk from downtown and other taverns if you feel like hopping. This place is very small. Limited seating. Parking is in the back in the dark. More stars if they remodel the place to todays standards of bars. Still nice for locals and a few games a year. read more

Don't even deserve one star, Are flipping kidding me, so I order a pitcher , I put $1 in their pool table, I get 14 balls, one short. Talk to bartender, her response is I need to put my n another dollar. I respond ok so you'll discount my tab one dollar... her response is no. Really, dings is willing to shit a potential $ who knows over a dollar on their not working table??? This is why we go to Harrys, I was begging to become a regular culstomer. This is not a one time time stop. Absolutely ridiculous. read more

Stopped in Easter evening because my normal sports bar (Thompson's Corner) was closed for the Holiday. The only available seat at the Bar had my back to 90% of the patrons....which was not comfortable feeling. This kind of dive bar is not for everyone. Moved to a better seat, after a bit. The TVs had the requisite games. Beer was cold. Saw an old friend there, which was really nice surprise. read more

First time here. Bartender Rory? Was quick with our orders and even brought us water without being asked. Having a good time so far

One of the best chill places in town. Totally dig the remodel - great people!!! Have been going there for the last 13 years.

Very small location. Not the crowd you want to be around. Free pool attacts the wrong crowd. Like like a 50's bar from the looks of things. Single bathroom thats dirty. Only decent thing was the jukebox. Time to hop to another bar. read more

After work hangout and unwind spot always have fun!!

my car was hit. the bartender did a good job of helping me. i come here often and it's a great place but apparently people have issues with car issues. read more
