Waffle Fries
Josh H.

I ordered Waffle Fries, Buffalo Wings, Cajun French Fries, and Cookie skillet The Waffle fries were hot and crunchy, and the curry ketchup compliments the fries well. I wish it came with more fries for the money. The quantity is like a large fry from Chic fil a. The Cajun Fries were hot and crunchy, the quantity was a good and shareable, the only thing I wish was for another sauce. I would recommend to order these over the waffle fries if you have a group due to the size. But if you're ordering for yourself, waffle fries are better. The Buffalo wings were really good, nice big meaty wings, but for the price it should come with at least 4 more. If you are ordering for yourself, I would recommend these. The Cookie skillet came out nice and hot, it tasted really good. It was really good flavor with a nice vanilla ice cream on top. I would recommend to order this if you're sharing this for 2 people. All of the drinks were nice and cold, overall I would recommend to come here. Overall I gave it a 4 star because of the quantity of food for the prices. The ambiance is nice and casual with good music. The service was great and got my food fast.

My friend djs here sometimes Friday or saturdays ! So decided to come support (: might be biased but great music and I'm not drinking currently but the bartender still made me feel included when I ordered a cranberry juice or pineapple, they put a garnish for me or a little lime so that it still felt like I was part of the social aspect of drinking. Lots of seating inside and out and the parking isn't too far either.

Beer: Hanger 24 Chocolate Bomber Porter - It's rich, smooth, and deeply satisfying. At 8.0% ABV, it delivers a bold kick without overwhelming the chocolatey malt profile. The roasted cocoa notes are well-balanced with a subtle bitterness, making each sip feel indulgent but drinkable. I won't mind if this is my "go-to" when going back. Service: It's pretty straightforward. You walk up to the bar and order your drink. People go around to clear the empty tables, but the place is overall pretty laid back. Ambiance: It's on the darker end for bars that offer an outdoor patio, which many guests prefer. The center of the bar doubles as a dance floor, given the DJ booth that was unoccupied when I was there. I positioned myself in the quieter 3rd segment with tables to sit and chat with friends.

Hamburger sliders

Our favorite dish were the bacon wrapped dates. The presentation isnt great but they are sooo good. The hamburger sliders were ok; they were just sliders, no extra flar. The heart attack fries with chicken were good but were overpowered by the chicken. It was more chicken than fries. We are locals and have gone multiple times. The food can be hit or miss but we'll have it every now and then.

Starting off with a couple of mules!

Been going here for a while. I've celebrated a couple of birthdays here and they have great accommodations! Staff are always nice! Vibe is great! It's not too clubby and more than just a bar. Music is always good! And the finger foods hit the spot, good elevated bar food, tastes great and great presentation!

Nicole the manager was absolutely amazing! I ended up having my pilot graduation party here, super last minute with over 30 people in attendance due to another restaurant falling through on their end last minute. Nicole was so amazing accommodated us with no problem! Was allowed to keep a cake in the refrigerator, put up some decorations, she reserved multiple tables in the downstairs area for us, everyone enjoyed their drinks/food and it had great music throughout the night! We had a wonderful time. I will definitely be recommending others here in the future and will be back with other events as well! Thank you so much Nicole! You made a memorable night for me and my friends to celebrate!

Hopscotch hosted our 20 year high school reunion. We couldn't have picked a better venue! We all had a blast! The event coordinator (Nicole) was super easy to work with. She was very accommodating and responsive. She catered to our group's dietary needs and even played a playlist we put together. The bar itself was beautifully decorated for the holidays, and it was very spacious for our group. We loved the overall vibe, the drinks, and the delicious food. Additionally, the staff were all very friendly and treated our group well. We highly recommend this bar for group events! I can't wait to come back!

Great spot for dinner, drinks, late night bite, date night, hang out with friends or dancing. The place is great with a little bit of everything for everyone. The whisky and mixed drinks and the food was all great and with a very nice variety. The service from the bartenders to the servers to the security/ door staff was also on point. There's all night free parking at the nearby parking structure or at the back parking lot until 9pm. After 9pm you have to pay.

Came here for a friend's birthday and had a great time. The music was great, the food was great, and the drinks were great. This is definitely a good spot to hang out at.

Came here on a Friday night around 7pm. We came for a birthday party, the manager was very kind in offering the birthday boy a drink on the house. DJ set was good later in the night. Reason I give Hopscotch 2 stars is my husband has celiac, so he cannot eat gluten. When asking how they can accommodate they could only offer him a lettuce wrap burger for $20. If you have celiac, you know how frustrating that is because not only does a lettuce wrap burger not fill you but it's usually one piece of lettuce on a patty. It is 2024... many people have dietary restrictions and the fact Hopscotch doesn't have options is disappointing. Not sure if we would come back. If you have dietary restrictions do not come here.

Hopscotch Tavern is located in downtown Fullerton and it's a really cute bar. I ordered the Strawberry Sunset (Mule Cocktail) and it was pretty good. It was a bit strong for me but overall not bad. I want to try their other cocktails on the menu the next time I go. We sat in the patio area and it was so nice. The bar is very big overall but I would recommend sitting outside on the patio. It's pretty loud inside with all the music but they have seating inside too. The patio was pretty crowded but it was so pretty with the lights and loved the vibes. I would totally recommend hopscotch for a date night or just a gathering with friends.

Ask the Community - Hopscotch Tavern

Are the crispy tacos gluten free?

The fryer is mixed with items that do have gluten in them. So even though the crispy taco itself doesn’t have gluten, the oil could be factor.

Are there any gluten-free friendly options?

There are a couple of items such as spicy edamame, bacon wrapped dates, bacon wrapped jalapeños, chicken lettuce wraps, modified salads. You can also modify burgers to lettuce wrapped. Just be sure to mention it to staff pre ordering. Keep in mind,… 

Is it dog friendly?

Definitely!

I'm 20 but if i were to come at 8 with some friends will i get kicked out or would i be able to stay?

Can I bring my own cigars?

You certainly can!

Is the place kid friendly?

Yes it is! Switches to 21 and over after 9PM.

What time do you open for brunch?

12PM on Saturdays and Sundays

How much is brunch?

I'd assume it would be available on the menu, but as an estimate about $15-$20 per person w/tip and if you go lite on the beverages. 😏

What are the vegetarian options for entrees? I don't see any

Honestly the menu does change - slightly on occasion. With that being said, your best bet would be to ask your server, or call ahead.

Do they have bottomless mimosas?

Yes, for Saturday and Sunday brunch hours!

Do they still do brunch?

Yes, and bottomless mimosas!!

Is this place dog-friendly?

Perhaps on the patio? You'd have to ask in person. I did see a bowl of water set out on patio at Slidebar next door once!

Is there WiFi service for customers ? I need to arrange a business meeting there. Thank you

There is WiFi for customers, yes! Just ask a staff member when you are there!

What time do they stop serving food?

Sunday-Thursday last call for food is 9:45pm Friday and Saturday last call for food is 10:45pm

We were there on Sunday, October 3rd around 3pm. We asked who the owners were because we were really impressed with the place and thought they might be the same owners as another location we had visited. There was absolutely no bad intention behind the question. The male bartender told us that no one name drops anymore. I understood what he was saying and was more than willing to move on. But then I asked him if the bar offered whiskey sours and he responded, "You really don't know what you're doing here and what you want." I was honestly so taken back by that comment. I don't normally stay quiet when someone speaks to me disrespectfully, but I was so caught off guard that I didn't even know what to say. Before that, he had also yelled out to the host that she didn't need to worry because we didn't know the owners and that she could relax. The whole interaction was completely unnecessary and made us feel very uncomfortable. We came in wanting to enjoy the atmosphere and have a good time. Instead, we left feeling disrespected and uncomfortable. There is a way to speak to customers, even if you feel they are asking questions you don't like. We did nothing to deserve that kind of attitude. The Blind Rabbit may be a great place, but unfortunately, the way we were treated by this bartender completely ruined the experience for us. Customer service matters, and unfortunately, ours was extremely disappointing.

The High Horse Saloon is a western themed restaurant and bar in downtown Fullerton…read more Parking in downtown Fullerton can often be a challenge. There is a small parking lot behind the restaurant which is often full. We usually park in the free multi-story parking garage just east of Harbor and Wilshire. It is a short one block walk to High Horse from there. As the name suggests, the décor is very western themed with lots of wood, cowboy hats and boots, wagon wheels, lassos, saddles, taxidermy, etc. Seating options include booths, high top tables, and at the bar. They have happy hour Monday through Friday from 3pm to 6pm with food and drink specials. We started out with the pickle fries ($12) which were excellent. The pickle slice thickness to batter ratio was perfect, and they were served with a side of ranch. My first cocktail was The Smoking Gun (bacon washed Elijah Craig bourbon, maple syrup, angostura bitters, orange bitters, $18). It is smoked tableside and was a healthy pour. The bacon and maple flavor was very light, but it was very smooth. Her first cocktail was What Would Dolly Do? (Hornitos plata tequila, Los Sundays jalapeno tequila, Del Maguey peubla mezcal, simple syrup, lime, pineapple, grapefruit, $16). It was balanced with good jalapeno flavor and pineapple below with a light smokiness. For my entrée, I had the half slab of baby back rips ribs ($28) with coleslaw and fries. The plate arrived steaming hot and I was impressed with the portion of ribs. There were seven meaty ribs that were very flavorful and the BBQ sauce was good. The fries were crisp and seasoned, and the coleslaw was good too. She had the Up The Creek spice rubbed cedar-plank salmon ($26) with asparagus and mashed potatoes. The portion of salmon was good and it was flavorful. The asparagus was cooked well, but they were over salted. She also enjoyed the potatoes. My second cocktail was the Skinny Dipper (Tito's vodka, St. Germain, aloe vera water, watermelon, lime, $15). This drink was light and refreshing, with floral notes, and watermelon and lime standing out. It also had a great looking color. Her second cocktail was Ladies Love Outlaws (rose petal infused Ketel One vodka, St. Germain, simple syrup, grapefruit, lemon, rose wine, $16). This was also light with floral notes, and had good grapefruit flavor. It was very lively at 6:30pm on a Thursday evening. We left a little after 8pm, and the place was packed as they have line dancing. There was a big crowd of at least twenty people dancing in front of the restaurant and having a great time. The service was good, and our server was very friendly. The food and drinks were great, and I think they were a pretty good value for the price.

We got there right when they opened and got seated at a booth. They had football running on all the tv's, except the large one above the back entrance was playing the Dodgers game. We were stoked! Within a few minutes the manager was pointing a remote up at the TV to switch to football. My husband politely went up and asked him if he could leave it on the Dodgers game. The manager just said "no." When my husband clarified if there was a way to keep it on the game, the manager again just said "no". This was a very rude way to answer someone just asking a question. He could have at least given a slight apology, or a quick explanation as to why he had to put all tvs on football, but he chose to just keep looking up at the TV and just say "no". We asked the waitress also and she said something like "we have to have all the tvs on football" or something. This was nuts considering there were a few other people in there,,and trust me, they weren't glued to one of the 5 tvs watching football. We were hoping they could just change one of the tvs by our booth. The food was great, as we love their wings and their fountain drinks. It wasn't a dealer breaker that we couldn't watch baseball, but it WAS a dealer breaker that we had such a rude interaction with the manager guy.

The venue appeared to be focused on creating a nightclub atmosphere rather than providing a proper football watch party. There was a DJ, extremely loud music, and a host who continuously provided her own commentary throughout the match. Instead of allowing fans to enjoy the game, she repeatedly interrupted play with jokes, personal observations, and constant microphone chatter that distracted from the match. Halftime was especially frustrating. Rather than preparing for the second half, the host performed multiple songs while fans on the patio were asking for the match audio to be turned on. Even after the game resumed, the unnecessary commentary continued for the remainder of the match. To make matters worse, there was a $30 cover charge. I purchased tickets for my entire group in advance, spending well over $200 before food and drinks. For that price, I expected a venue that understood people were there to watch one of the biggest sporting events in the world--not to watch the host become the center of attention. A great World Cup watch party lets the match create the atmosphere. The crowd, the chants, the tension, and the emotion are what make these events memorable. Unfortunately, those moments were constantly interrupted. I genuinely wanted to like Chako's Social, but this experience was incredibly disappointing. If you're looking for a true football viewing experience where the game comes first, I cannot recommend it based on my visit.
