**THIS IS A LOCAL BAR ** (And yes, I'm biased. I love this place) PARKING: It's a small parking lot and gets BUSY during peak hours (Holidays and weekends). You can always park down the residential and walk. It's not far. DRINKS: NO HARD LIQUOR! They only sell beer, wine, ciders, seltzer's. If you really want hard liquor you can pop next door to Rembrandt's and get a drink then go back (as most people do). CUSTOMER SERVICE: They are always attentive and fast even when they're super busy. If they don't come, you can always go straight up to the bar and order if you're feeling impatient. FOOD: It's bar food! The Yorba Linda Chicken Sandwich is a fan favorite! Give it a try. VIBE: They have 2 pool tables in the back, a few dart boards (my favorite) and LOTS OF TVS for all your sports needs. This is the place to be! There's a bar next door that sells hard liquor, but honestly this place is always everyone's first choice. Stop on by and see what all the hype is about. Everyone's friendly and knows each other. read more

Nice place, food is great and the beer is cold! With Service that is fast...very nice place to meet up with friends.

I don't get here often, cause I'm never away from kids. I really wish I'd let kids in this place because the food is so bomb. Having said that I was kid free recently and came in. Enjoyed the service and wine. I also ordered the Yorba Linda chicken sandwich of Placentia. Put it this way. I wish I had two of them, because it was so damn good. My go to is prime rib on garlic sourdough, but a friend of mine ordered the sandwich, and it smelled so good when it came to the table, that when I was ready to order my to go, I ordered that. Food is always so dang good! Our service by Mindy was exceptional. read more

This place is our go-to. The food is great, the staff are kind, hard working, and on top of it. We have been coming for many years and always recommend it. I would however give zero stars for trivia night. We won't be back. We've gone for several years, always play along, tip well, and enjoy our time. But we finally realized that we can't take Doug anymore. He's rude, off putting, and seems completely miserable every single Thursday. When he was rude to my husband - it was the final straw for me. Do yourself a favor- go for the food, drinks, nice servers....but skip Thursday nights and find a trivia place that is happy to have you there. read more

Chose this place because it was a good halfway point to watch the UCLA-USC game. The Yelp reviews are on point. Lots of tvs, awesome vibe, delicious food and great service. The patrons were also friendly and fun despite the rivalry (teehee). Will definitely go again and designate this as the "let's meet in the middle" bar. read more

Great service! Really good sports bar atmosphere and great selection of beers. Would definitely recommend for a night watching the game

Delicious food, decent prices! I love this place! The only downfall is that there is only beer and wine.... so gotta plan your drinking accordingly. But, folks, that is the only downfall! Everything I've ever eaten here has been delicious; burgers, fish and chips, sandwiches, quesadilla (yummo), and tacos. Served fresh, warm, flavorful and with a smile! Yes, a smile! Service here is fantastic! The food is so good, that I bet they make a delicious breakfast... do they serve it here? Wow, just thought of that and I have no idea. Well, if they don't, they sure should!! I think this would be a go-to for all sports watching if it were around the corner from me... but it's a bit of a drive for a day of drinking and sports. Definitely stop in, the parking lot is weird and a bit of a hideaway, you may not even realize that there's an awesome tavern in there... but there is! CHEERS!!! read more

Kelly's Korner Tavern - Burgers Near Me - Placentia, California

If you can get there for lunch during the week, the specials are great. Excellent sandwiches for the price. Great beer and seltzer selection. Huge Mimosas, as well. They have a very good layout for watching multiple games or sports. read more

This is Placentia's hidden gem!!!! I ordered a Pilsner and it was good. The chicken nachos are yummy too. I like how the tortilla chips are crispy. The staff will always check in with you and your glass will never be empty. It wasn't too crowded b it I hear trivia night gets cray. There are multiple screens to watch all the sports you can imagine. Super laid back place where you can people watch and enjoy good company. read more

Like many of the regular patrons we live in the area and have been coming here for many years. It goes without saying that both of food and the drinks are the very best in the area. You will not find a more authentic sports bar anywhere nearby. The reason that I am leaving this review, however, is to acknowledge the incredible service. After just having lunch my wife and I began to walk home when suddenly we were chased down by our kind waitress who had chased us well over a quarter of a mile to inform us that we were overcharged. It's people like that who make this establishment much more than just a tavern. read more

Jacob at Kelly's Bar was fantastic! His service was quick, friendly, and attentive, making the whole experience even better. He went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect. Highly recommend asking for Jacob if you stop by! read more

This is a great dive bar with decent prices on pitchers. Lots of pool tables and on Thursdays they have a trivia night which is a great way to meet other regulars. Staff is friendly and attentive. read more

Terrible staff & service. First and last time here. Plenty of other better bars in OC.

Loved the food and atmosphere. I have already been a repeat customer. I have had both their burgers and fish and chips

My favorite place for pub trivia (shoutout pop quiz trivia!) The food is awesome. The staff is always great. I HIGHLY recommend Kelly's Korner to all I encounter! read more

Food, excellent variety, served hot and tasty Service, staff were very helpful! Ambiance, very nice, customers were having a good time. read more

This place is bomb, been coming here last few month Jim and staff always attentive Kudos to you guys well done

Great atmosphere & service lots of TVs with all sports games! The food is Awesome & beer selection is top notch!

I am so happy I found this gem. This place is extremely underrated. They have a GREAT selection of beer on hand that can make anyone happy. I go here for the beer and food, but it's obviously a great sports bar overall if you want a fun environment where you can watch the game and hang out with friends. Their food is also very tasty which is just a bonus. The customer service is just as great, so it's easy to say they are a package deal when it comes to service, food, drinks and entertainment. You will definitely be missing out if you don't give this place a try. read more

It is a neighborhood sports bar with pool tables and lots of big screens. The food is outstanding and it was a surprise. Saint Patricks day, oh my gosh the food menu, awesome burgers and way too much food. The beer on tap and the sandwiches. Corned beef and cabbage and the list goes on. very chill place with attentive staff. read more

Love this place! Love the bar food, the selection of beers, and all of the tvs for sports.

Lots of fun! Service was great! Food was good! They have great variety of beers to choose from? We were able to enjoy our teams's victory in a great atmosphere. Thank you Kelly's owner & staff. read more

Cool little dive bar in Placentia. I was working in our Brea office (normally in DTLA) and wanted to avoid the Friday rush hour traffic home, so my coworkers and I came here for some drinks after work. It was maybe 4:30 and happened to be Cinco De Mayo, but luckily it wasn't crowded yet . This bar is strictly a beer bar, which was totally fine. They had a variety of beers and ciders. And if you buy two beers and check in on Yelp, you get the Irish Nachos for 50% off. Although be warned that Irish "nachos" aren't actually nachos but french fries with cheese and bacon. Delicious nonetheless! There's also a pool table - $1 a game. Started to get super packed as the night went on because of Cinco De Mayo. Staff is very friendly and attentive. Great place to hang out and have a drink! read more

Quality food and awesome team service. Try the Yorba Linda chicken sandwich of Placentia. Outstanding. Really can't go wrong with anything on menu. Great neighborhood beer& wine bar. Friendly, clean and safe. A great mix of age groups, everyone has a good time. Plenary of tv's for sports. read more

Great pub! Very fun with awesome food. Love coming here. Excellent service too. Watch your favorite team while enjoying a cold beer and yummy food. read more

I originally reviewed Kelly's 10 years ago when my husband and I discovered it. Ten years later I'm updating my review with 5 stars. The food is excellent, the staff is great, and the vibe is positive! We have enjoyed bringing all three of our kids here at they turned 21. We also bring family and friends as they come to visit. We love Kelly's! read more

My initial impression upon walking in was that this was just another sports bar mainly for drinks and watching the game, but the food is actually super legit. The "fatty" melt I ordered was straight up one of the best sandwiches I've ever had, and the nachos were decent too. Of course the important thing is that it's a 5/5 sports bar also, with TV's plastered wall to wall and an impressive selection of booze that should satisfy a wide variety of tastes. read more

Visited on Sunday morning and place was packed with football fans. Lots of energy and people having fun. Cool place. I heard their food is great. Unfortunately I ordered the Chilaquiles and they were bad. They were the consistency of mashed potatoes and were overcooked. I will probably try again sometime but will order something different. read more

Came here for drinks and food last night & Kellys didn't disappoint! Good variety of beer and wine, and the burgers were delicious. Only downside is the lack of parking, so you might have to circle around a few times to find a spot. But definitely Give this place a try to catch the Dodger game (or I guess Angels game if you're with thy crowd lol) read more

Came here to fly some time before celebrating my friend leaving us to the east coast. It wasn't crowded at all at 10PM. The noise level is typical of a bar, but were all able to enjoy some talk time while having a drink. So this is only a beer and wine place. There's a good variety of beers on tap and I went with the Belching Beaver Peanut Butter Milk Stout. Since we were just hanging out for a moment, we only had time for a single drink. Service was great. It didn't take an act of God to grab one of the bartender's attention to get my drink. And when closing my tab, it was a quick wave at one of the bartenders to get that tab closed. Even as I was waiting for him to bring my receipt, another bartender asked if I have been helped. So, the downfall here is that there's only wine and beer. I was actually craving a refreshing cocktail, but I was willing to settle for a Belching Beaver! read more

Came here to watch TNF for the first time ever a couple weeks back. The energy was phenomenal. Tons of tvs, great service and good food. Beer by the pitcher was reasonably priced. Looking forward to coming back for more sports games. read more

This place has pretty good food. There is not any hard alcohol, but the beer selection is good. They also have a few wines and hard seltzer. Their TV layout is very good. This is a great place to watch multiple games. They even had Harvard - Yale! read more
