Renee was on point super friendly. Can't beat the price for the drinks. Back area has been totally redone. If you haven't been in a while, it's time to come back..... read more

this is a great little bar- it's one of my favorite places in scv. Ren is a great daytime bartender- Chrisha (spelling? the foxy blonde bartender) slings booze on all the fun nights. she's probably one of the best in the business and is honestly probably the whole reason I'm a habitual offender @ docs. they have some really decent bands and karaoke on Wednesday w/ Michelle is always a ball. swing by for a mellow crowd and they'll treat you like a local even if you're visiting. read more

Went in there recently and what a change from a year or two ago. Day crew was fun but the night turned dark. Over serving and coke infused. I typically don't see men go into a bathroom together and lock the door. Blonde bartender was clearly aware and just didn't care. Pretty obviously the dealer post up there. Maybe even associated with her. So you want to get waisted and coked out of your gourd Docs is the place. read more

I came in on December 6th and ordered a whiskey sour. My bill for my one beverage was $9 and I tipped $3, which is more than 20%, but upon checking my bank statement, I was charged $14 which means they added an extra $2 onto my already generous tip. Make sure to take a picture of your receipt and check your bank statements after coming here. read more

Fantastic bartenders. Live music on Friday and Saturday nights. A great local hang and a true dive bar.

When a drunk domestic started to go sideways, I stepped in before things got bad. A few words were spoken then I decided to remove myself from the situation. I was later told by Brandon this shit happens All the time and since a I'm not a local, I was the problem, not the drunk screaming at his women and I should keep out of it. But that's not really in my nature. Shame cause I'd come in twice in the last couple of nights (when I lived here many my years ago came in all the time) and met some really great people and staff. But, I guess Tuesday is get stupid night. Brandon says bad reviews are good for business So this Bud's for you Brandon. I might be back someday but not too soon. Place could use a bouncer if they're gonna let people act like that. Guess I'll need to find a new Dive Bar when I'm in town. Shouldn't be too hard. read more

Looks like a dump from the outside but the daytime bartender is absolutely gorgeous and very nice. Day Renee is my favorite read more

Ive been here two times two separate bartenders as well they had live music my first time and was semi packed this last time it was more moderate and juke box level music. Ima share some downers first of, the place is a bit small a bit outdated. Liquor selection is limited music sometimes can be to loud to carry a conversation tables are a bit wonky and parking can be difficult. But all of that is subjective now the good of this place. All of that negative, I can say now is absolutely meaningless I love it I love the character and vibes the chipped chair the wobbly table I love it. The music sometimes they play a banger and man the place comes alive people sing along people laugh spill beer and the bartender cleans it up. It's just unique and I absolutely love it those two times I've visited not once have I felt that I don't belong there or that "I should leave" people are so kind I'm amazed. I stood by a table looking at the bar and this guy comes up telling me "you gotta go to the bar and order brother" I mean I knew that but that fact that someone just talked to me and gave me a little heads up I mean come on. The community is vibrant the folks who work there are just family I love it. I have no issue spending 100 200 for a really good time the drinks are respectably priced in the low 10s I'm a whiskey guy and there selection is fine I don't expect much but they do have some good stuff. I have so much more but I'll leave it there, don't take my word go for your self have a drink be open mind be respectful and patience, I felt bad to see the bartender run around I just said take your time don't even worry about us. She's so cool I forgot her name my apologies but we will be back absolutely this made me feel good coming from downtown Hollywood and some of those bars out there can get crazy but nothing like a good friendly bar to have some good drinks. I loved it I can't say enough I'm sure there's a bad experience just like everything in life. But give it a shot don't take my words for it go. read more

The most down to earth and friendly bartenders (especially Chrisha). They have drinks at a good price and good live music. The atmosphere is chill and really homie. The people who come are eclectic but nice. A good mix of folks. I've never had a problem with knuckleheads trying to start frights. Definitely my favorite dive bar in town. read more

Love this place! So fun and all the bartenders are wonderful! Fun whole in the wall dive.

Great vibe with friendly staff and customers. Live band on the weekend and it seems like everyone knows each other while still being welcoming. read more

Good time here. Ellie, behind the bar was working her ass off. It was busy when we showed up at the drinks were served quickly. A good place to unwind. read more

I just want to say Renee B has been amazing, she knows her stuff and she gets drinks out to everyone so fast I never have to wait for a drink. read more

Friendly neighborhood establishment, with a fireplace! My go-to place for Christmas Eve with the family.

I do enjoy coming here. It's a nice local place where you can get a beer and have good conversation. I enjoy the community.

Decent. This place is exactly what you want in a dive bar. Great bartenders. Good crowd.

Krisha is back! Live band! Great drinks! They really take of you. The band just played Wipe Out! The floor is packed! read more

Adam where are you? I really like this establishment, real fun. Saint patty's day will be a blast. Can't wait to dress up as a leprechaun to appreciate the Irish heritage of this bar. Aiiiiuu read more

This is a local dive bar. It includes 2 dartboards, dart league nights, Golden Tee Golf, juke box, fire place, live music a couple days out of the week, smoking out back. It has liqueur, some wine, beers on tap. They accept credit cards. No pets. Service can vary greatly. A men's and a women's bathroom. Parking in front and back. Ask about the driver service if you drink too much and need someone to drive your car home for you. read more

Bartenders are amazing! Every Friday and Saturday nights there's a live band! Great atmosphere, great people what more could u ask for!?

Loved this bar. Wandered in on vacation from Vegas, and made about 10 new friends. The barstaff was great, and the patrons were awesome. Very cool people, and a great vibe. i will definitely come back next time i'm in town. read more

First time being there and it was a great time. On this Thanksgiving night, I called 9 establishments and Doc's Inn was the only one that picked up the phone. Carrie was behind the bar and was wonderful to chat with and made great drinks. There selection of liquor isn't over the top, but it's definitely adequate. The regulars I met were extremely friendly. They have a jukebox, separate Men and Women's bathrooms and a smoking area out back. Will definitely be coming back on Friday/Saturday nights when they have live music. Cheers read more

Another little dive bar in scv. Always been dead when I would go, prolly because I would go on the week days. I'm sure its more busy on the weekends. They do have Stella on tap, so that makes me happy. read more

I entered the bar and it was dead. Nobody was there so I just wanted to chill and get a drink. The bar tender said I wasn't old enough yet I was born on June 1st 1997. Do the math it's not hard. I'm going to be 22 this year in June yet since we are in the year of 2019 ... yet I'm considered under age? That doesn't make any sense please someone explain how I am under age. Horrible service. Smh would not recommend plus the bar tender couldn't even do basic math. read more

I've been waiting for the right time to write this review because like a favorite child or your best friend, you don't really wanna whore it out too soon. You want to save it for yourself and enjoy and cherish it, but seeing as how there are a few other reviews out there in the universe for this place already, well, here goes. My dos cents... Doc's is kinda like a meth lab meets Cheers. And I, of course, mean this in the very best way. There are a cast of quirky characters, old men, rough lookin' ladies, divorcees, rippled textured ceilings and a back patio that feels like a meet up for repo men and maybe hog wrestlers. Again, I mean this in a stellar and super awesome way. It's just that perfect kind of dive bar. The kind of bar with a band on some nights were the 50 year old drummer has a rat tail. The kind of bar where the Russian bartender (Katka) says your kids will be hot as you sit there on a date with your cute new boyfriend. Yeah, it's the kind of bar I can safely call a new fave and I foresee many a drinking adventure in store for me here :) Call my RX in, cuz I'm hooked, Doc! read more

THIS PLACE. It's the most epic dive bar- free hot dogs in a slow cooker, bags of chips all over the place, cheaper pitchers. On one hand, it's painful to be in, on the other hand, it's hilarious. Darts competitions occasionally, but considering how hammered people get, I'd be afraid for my life. 1 star for the ridiculous 50 something cougar bartender. read more

Dave behind the bar is a legend. Tip high because he pours heavy drinks and always remembers your drink order The bands on sundays are amazing read more

If you go into Doc's and you don't understand the "chips" or the dark dingy apperence, then your nose might be pointed too high in the air. Doc's is the perfect neighborhood bar to stop in for a few beers after work or for a nitecap after doing a pub crawl. Friendly bartenders and nice customers, not to mention drinks with decent amounts of alcohol and very reasonable prices. read more

I love this place.. what a shit hole... really.. not in a cool way.. it is really a shit hole.. but I LOVE IT.. just as a real shit hole should be, dark, cheap, and full of real alcoholics. the only problem is that you get a young rowdy crowd in there some nights. and you know how young guys are that are drinking 21-24 years old.. that testosterone gets flowing, and before you know it there is a fight, and blah blah blah.. I dont know why, but I am the supreme asshole magnet.. I think it is because I am a 'bigger' guy, 6' at a lean 175lbs and the tattoos... every young buck feels the need to come out and try to start a fight with me.. little do they know I am a total pussy, and would never fight a little kid in a bar.... in valencia of all places.. but you get what you pay for.. fun place.. good music, STRONG drinks.. but beware of some possible dumb ass kiddery.

Greasy hotdogs from the vender on the street corner... Finding money on the ground that isn't mine... beating a cocky guy at pool in front of his hot girlfriend... These are some of my guilty pleasures. Now I can add: Spending the evening at Doc's Inn to my list. I have been there two or three times now, and it gets better each time. The atmosphere seems to fit my taste perfectly. It is a dive bar, but unlike a lot of dive bars, the regulars treat you like one of their own. Everyone wants to talk, drink, or play darts with you. Whenever I walk in, I feel welcomed there. There is quite a large bar for the size of the establishment, so getting "first in line" for a drink never seems to be an issue. Oh, and did I mention... live band. Yep. It's a good time. However, the best part of this place isn't the regulars. It isn't the enormous bar, or the dart boards. In fact, the live band doesn't even come close to being the best part... The most incredible part about this place is the staff. The bartenders are always super friendly and engaging. I feel like I have known them for years! In particular, Katka, one of the weekend bartenders, is incredible. It is refreshing to see a bartender that loves her job as much as she does. Her attitude alone is enough to make me want to come back again and again (not to mention the strong drinks she can't seem to stop pouring for my friends and me!). So, if you are looking for a place with a great crowd, amazing atmosphere, cheap drinks, and the best bartender in Santa Clarita Valley... Check this place out. You might be surprised. You won't be disappointed. And you might find yourself with a new guilty pleasure. read more

Went here for my boyfriends birthday on a Friday night... It was alright.. for some reason, he loves the place but I dont really see why... both of my drinks were poorly made by the older female bartender with ridiculously large boobs... only after it took her 10 minutes to even acknowledge me.. One of the other men working there noticed me first and did nothing.. all he did was point at the lady bartender....and it wasn't even busy :/... I order a tom collins, which was nothing like it was suppose to be and not made in the right glass... the second one she made me was somehow pink... i was so confused that i asked her what she gave me after she made it.. overall, i think my biggest complaint was obviously her.. the people in the bar were very nice, the place was clean, it had a nice little outdoor patio, and we had a great time playing with both dart boards..if you dont have a problem with waiting for drinks and dealing with that woman, then go for this place.. you can at least be distracted by her chest while u wait read more

Actually, I like the ambiance of this bar. Love the smoking patio But, my first time I had to wait more than once for drinks, in an empty bar Then there are the prices... Over $18 for two pints of Shocktop and a shot equivalent to Jagermiester on a Thursday at 430pm. Something is wrong, I'll stick to the chain restaurants with happy hours and food. read more

This place was a really cool dive bar and the ambience was pretty nice. First date encounter was definitely eventful and relaxed. We're deathly recommend this place for just getting away from the city life. read more

This is by far my favorite bar in SCV. Possibly my favorite bar in the whole entire world!! And that's saying a lot cuz trust me party people, I've been to them all. This place is really laid back and fairly small. But man do they serve alcohol. I swear the put ruffies in their kegs, every time I leave this place I'm on the god damn floor!!! Usually I go here with just a few friends but I pretty much know everyone there so it's just one big party and everyone is friendly as hell, they have a great staff that works the bar. My favorite being Kodka, yea Vodka with a K, how perfect is that name for a bar tender. And she is fine as anything I have ever laid my eyes on. And then there is Randy, cool down to earth guy that just wants everyone to have a good time. They have live bands and kareoke on certain nights of the week, I'm not sure what nights are which due to the fact that every night that I have ever been there all just seems like one big blur. They have 2 dart boards that get a lot of use and there are always people that are more than happy to play with you. Back smoking patio that you can bring your beer out to. Bathrooms are kinda shitty due to the fact there isn't a stall for the shitter. So if you think your going to have to drop some logs I would recommend doing that before you get to the bar, but that should a given any night you go out I guess, but hey shit happens. I can't say it enough but I love this place!! As always my fellow drunk ass mother fuckers party hard!! Sincerely, Party Pat read more
