    Zero proof for those who don't drink alcohol
    Krystal G.

    We came here to the packing house for cinco de mayo and we were waiting for our table so we decided to go to the bar to wait for our table, my Ate (older cousin) got a spicy margarita... and since j don't drink alcohol I saw the had a zero proof section so I tried their house ginger beet which I have to say is the best ginger beer that I have ever had hands down. Bartender made our drinks quite fast and the atmosphere here was pretty darn cool! Would definitely come back for the ginger beer on a date night... but next time I will ask for light ice.

    Basically my neighborhood bar for last 5 years. These guys arent regular bartenders they are PHD mixologists. They take their time to make sure all the ingredients and drinks are perfected before serving you. Special shouts out to Tim the tool man.. Daniel.. josh manager Zach and Meme. I recommend going during Happy hour and weekdays because it gets super busy.

    Pool Noodle & Banana Clip

    Drinks looked and tasted good! You order at the bar to get your drink. Service was meh, probably because it was so loud and busy. Ordered the Banana Clip and the Pool Noodle. Banana clip was amazing and the pool noodle came in a cool Chinese takeout box. Check this place out whenever you're nearby the Anaheim Packing District.

    Brought some oysters from wooden pearl over to eat with our drinks for date night

    When I say this place has good cocktails I mean this place has INCREDIBLE cocktails. Like the type of cocktails you'd expect from a super boujee restaurant. So tasty and constantly changing up the drink menu. The service is great too especially for how busy they get during the weekends since it's in the packing house. It's a such a fun environment. 10/10 guys!

    The amazing staff at Hammer kept me well fed, drank and entertained throughout all of the Olympics. It's a niche spot in the Packing House that is friendly & delightful. Josh runs a great crew that keeps you chuckling & enjoying the people watching in Anaheim. Make sure to get involved withe the crew at Hammer while you figure out the plethora of lunch options.

    My favorite craft cocktail bar in Orange County. High quality, stiff, and fresh ingredients are used to make the drinks. If you don't see anything on the menu that you like, you can tell the bartender what alcohol and flavor profile you like and they'll make something for ya. It's a small bar located in the Anaheim Packing District on the 2nd floor.

    Nice space with plenty of room

    I made a quick stop at this bar as I was on my way to meet with some friends. The space is very lively. The music is great and the bartenders were really quick. The menu is not too large, which makes it easy to pick your drink and just have a nicer experience overall. They had plenty of seatingand a good view of the giant TV. Overall, I would really recommend this place for anyone looking to make a quick stop on their night owl

    Josh gets down with the drinks, such a dope bartender. He never misses when making me this drink. Truly appreciate you brotha

    Amazing. Can't rave enough about this spot. Laid back environment, delicious drinks, SUPERIOR Guest Service! Went here on a Thursday night for a friend's birthday - total of 4 ladies just out after work for a couple drinks. Had started at Strong Water and the Birthday Girl had never been to the Anaheim Packing House so we headed there. After a loop through, we landed at Hammer (with a charcuterie board). After a bit of hanging out with a drink each, and a ton of laughing, this guy joined our table and convo to chat up mainly the birthday girl. However, he hung out a bit too long and wasn't necessarily getting the subtle hints to end the convo. BUT, truly was not being creepy or rude - just an over chatty (potentially flirty with the birthday girl), and possible drunk guy out with his brother who had said hi but kept to himself at the bar. What stood out to me - and why I HAD to write this review - were how the 2 gentlemen bartenders handled this situation for us 4 women. Not only was the bar busy, but they noticed the guy join us and not leave us so after about 15 minutes, one of the bartenders - Max - came to give one of the girls her check and asked her if all was ok and if the guy was bothering us. He was very subtle and discrete about this as the 2 other ladies and the guy were busy chatting and didn't notice. We let him know we were good but appreciated him checking in. It really did mean a lot! Now, after maybe another 15 ish mins (or at least felt that way), the other bartender-Josh (the Asian Josh as there are 2 Josh's who work there)-stopped by once more with what looked like a tab but was really checking in once more. He had mentioned something along the lines of people chatting but wants to make sure we do not ever feel uncomfortable to where we want to leave and he knows Max checked on us but it's been some time so he just wanted to check in on us again and if there is anything we need him to do. We still didn't because again, the guy was not being rude or creepy - and I personally nicely went to nicely end the convo but the birthday girl is chatty herself so she even kept it going. But I have never, ever experience this kinda of situational awareness from my bartenders and I want to make sure it is called out. It just makes me feel extra safe and comfortable and welcomed going to Hammer Workshop & Bar and I wanted everyone to know about this exceptional service! Thank you again Josh and Max ! You truly are amazing and I can't wait to visit again soon!

    It was super packed on a Saturday night around 7pm. Then it died down around 8ish. We loved the seats we got because we got to see the big screen and they had a football game going on. There was also a very neat band playing and we could see and enjoy the view. You can bring your own food like from other food places and sit inside the bar with it. I ordered the atole frío and it was pretty good. drinks are $16-18 dollars.

    Scam Pool Honey It's Automatic
    Jane T.

    Delicious drink with plenty of open seating, bartenders are friendly and great at what they do. The Scam Pool Honey which is a mezcal drink was perfectly balanced. My bf got the It's Automatic which was a really yummy take on an old fashioned. It's upstairs in the middle of the packing district, a great place to meet up. A little noisy but you can still have a conversation.

    Eggwhite Whiskey Sour

    Classic cocktails crafted precisely to perfection. The bartenders (Max, Joel, and Josh) execute their techniques flawlessly while simultaneously curating immaculate vibes to their guests. The music is always on point and the drinks work their magic. 10 out of 10 would recommend. Good sh*t.

    Lydia Y L.

    Anaheim packing district is one of the best places to come and to have a great time with family or friends and to me and my friends, Hammer workshop is a must. JOEL is one the best bartenders here with his welcoming spirit to his charismatic skills to make their special drinks! This place works great as a pregame spot, date night spot, and also a great way to wrap up the night with a smile on your face! Thank you Joel for the best experience every time!

The review is about the new changes to menu, def not a fan of the new items, bring back some of the classics, it def feels the menu is trying too hard and being across the street from a baseball park keep it simple and classic. The last few times we have gone they have been out of a lot of our favorite beers, knowing that baseball season is back they should make sure that they have plenty in stock before the weekend starts.

There is a good variety of games, Mario kart, pinball, guitar hero, air hockey, etc. and you can use a credit card to purchase a play card for the games. There is a good variety of beer and seltzers, there is no food just quick snacks like candy and chips. The two things that concerned me were 1. The isles between the games were very tight, I'd imagine if it were crowded it would be a pain to play some games. But this wasn't a big deal for the time I went since nobody was in there. The next thing is there is no description on the drinks, they have cool names but I have no idea what I'm ordering. The staff was very friendly and let me taste, but if it were crowded you would definitely hold the line up trying to figure out what you want with all the taste testing. Descriptions of the flavor would definitely the customer decide. Overall the place place is clean, good games, and great to spend an hour or so. The prices of the games weren't too bad, about $2 a game. The drinks I got were unique and tasted good.
