I gotta give it 5 stars for being in one of our fave shopping plazas where we love to take our dog. They have a cute section outside with tvs, comfy seats and a little grass truff and water bowls for dogs. Definitely a good spot to stop for a cold beer or meet up w some sports fans to catch a game. read more

The first time my friend and I went was good. On 4/25/26 we received the minority service. I could tell the waitress didn't want us there. I was trying to order my food but she stood behind the bar talking to other customers and employees while I was waiting to order. I have to say the skinny bald guy was very nice. I ordered and waited 42 minutes for my food, I turned on a timer after 15 minutes. They took so long I had to ask for it to go. My friend ordered 10 minutes after me and also waited for 40 plus minutes. She had a salad and received no plasticware in her bag to eat it with. She left her debit card and some man who did not work there was behind the bar and had it while the bartender was in the restroom. My queso was one big ball of cheese and my taco had no flavor. read more

The bartender was really nice and made VERY strong drinks. I appreciate that!!! The muscles were amazing !!! The place was full at 12:30 pm on a Friday. I was surprised by how many people were there at that time. It is a truly a local bar. read more

Checked the place out on a Sunday night and enjoyed couple of drinks.... Izaac was a great bartender he knows how to make good trashcans couldn't just have one or two Great music and friendly atmosphere overall I did have a misunderstanding with the charges that showed up on my card... However I appreciate the quick response I received and friendly approach definitely will be back. read more

I have been going to LPH for over a year and met very kind and friendly people. Discussions have been a broad spectrum, and I am very aware what this audience is - and have never had a problem. For one specific Male regular, almost every meeting, he pushes his political opinion on me (specifically) because I wear rainbow attire and represent as an Ally - which he links with "Liberal." When I had a sober rebuttal he didn't agree with, HE attacked me verbally with vile sexual innuendo "you need a 12-inch c*ck in your mouth to shut you up" This happened while I was sober, drinking water and watching the Dodger game. This happened and was repeated in presence of the female bartender SHANNON and two other MALE regulars. Without any help from the bartender, I was ushered out and the angry regular was allowed to stay. This person continued to repeat a false narrative to like-minded "good ole' boys" and turned the story around posing me as not only the aggressor, but used a sensitive subject to make it a hostile & unsafe environment for me. I was TOLD by the bar manager TRAVIS, in a raised voice, that I was a problem - without management asking what happened - and he was not aware of the verbal attack on me - and did not care. I have asked the OWNER to call me read more

Wait what took me so long to write a review? Such a nice place. It's big. Had space our doors. Large bar area. Bunch of seating. High tables. Karaoke . I had a great time. I just feel in here one night with the fam. The drinks were good, the device was good, the vibes were good. I'd go back. Shoot I've been back!!! Cool place, diverse. Good music. You'll have a good time chilling out! read more

I came here the day after my birthday to enjoy breakfast with my husband. I live right by it, had never tried it, and saw that this place had good reviews. I had mistakenly left my ID at home, so I went home, and got it. I did not know it was a whole bar as I was mainly going for the food, which I why I suggested if I could sit at a table of sitting at the bar (where I was) instead. She replied very hostile, which is fine, I understand now it's a bar and I'm a server myself so I understand the rules. I came back with my ID and started off with a water and asked for the menu. She immediately started describing how long the food takes to come out and just overall started discouraging me from ordering food? It's 12:00 in the afternoon and every person in the "bar" is enjoying lunch. Every person had food in front of them, and even others weren't drinking alcohol. I felt immediately judged the moment I walked in, as the bartender didn't even greet us with a "hi welcome in" but instead "ID's". So then when I didn't have mine because I accidentally left it but came back, I was treated like a freak or something. I'm unsure why she kept emphasizing that she has to check ID's with her managers literally standing there, but then discouraged us from ordering food and spending money with her managers right there?? Makes no sense, and after we leave ahead of course starts talking bad about us to other guests. I should have done more research, cause according to other comments after scrolling to see if anyone else endured this type of service, there has been other instances of rude and terrible treatment. Regardless, coming from a server, advice would be to treat everyone with kindness so you don't loose out on business and tips. Further advice, keep her away from the bar since so many others don't appreciate her service! read more

We came at 9:20 am on a Sunday to have breakfast. I orders the Monte Christo (deconstructed) and the cook Johnny came out to talk to me about my preferences. Impressive! And his food was delicious. Hubby ordered the Sammy and it looked amazing! The service here is average, and very friendly even though it's slow going. It's a bar mainly with only a few tables for diners. Ambiance is very loud. Not a place for a romantic brunch, so go somewhere else if that's what you're looking for! The food is excellent, and well worth the noisy interference of a half dozen obviously drunk men (at 9:30 in the morning!). read more

We loved it! We were a bit unsure when we first walked in because there are a LOT of regulars. But the owner was very welcoming and the food was delicious. I loved the decor, very America! We will definitely be back! read more

One of the best old fashions I've ever had. Nice little chill spot to work at. Ask for Doah and you'll get excellent service.

My wife and I came across this place after attending an event. Great people, great food. Nice dining in or outside. The juke box was also rockin' read more

Tiny hole in the wall randomly located sports bar that had super friendly people and delicious food. The bartender was holding it down while she was alone and made sure you got your money's worth for the drink you're about to enjoy. The Cuban sandwich was freaking delicious. The pepperoni flatbread was so tasty. The nachos were super flavorful. However they cook their meat is perfect! The pretzel was so good too. I wish the inside was larger and they offered a mixed drink menu. Overall worth stopping at again. read more

Great atmosphere and drinks, limited menu, bar tender can be an ass awesome patio! Disco party the other day was epic! See you in 2026!

Definitely a "locals" hang-out and vibe. Food and service are very good. This is a full service bar. Everyone I've encountered was friendly which made the experience great. If you like karaoke, they have that on certain days. My favorite area is relaxing on the patio while sipping a beverage. read more

Don't recommend this place. Service is awful. Ambiance is dark. If you're not the right shade you'll be looked at different.

My wife and I were in the area looking for a nice place to eat, and this place came up. We walked in and looked around and we saw the bartender so we walked up to her, asked her do we seat ourselves can we sit outside? She said you can but anything that you want you need to walk up to me to place your order to pick up your drinks and a pick up your food. I have bad knees. I have icy hot patches all over my legs.. well we were with a party of six. We ended up at cactus Cantina. The bill was $210 and we tipped our server 70.. This restaurant gets beyond zero.. If management cares, we came in on May 17 Saturday around 3:35 pm We do wish we can give zero stars to that bartender who is injured ... It's called lazy come on management understand this. This cannot be the first complaint about her.. read more

Update: The tap system for draft beers has been updated and repaired. They are back to having a decent selection, ranging from the excellent (but not for amateurs) Lagunitas IPA and other craft beers to domestics. read more

Stars didn't change but wanted to update. They no longer offer the Wednesday spaghetti to go. The "owner" claims it was always dine in only. You only have like 5 tables and a bar and it's so loud in there you can't even order a drink without screaming. I have been coming here for years but honestly they will survive without me. I have ordered the spaghetti to go probably 25-30 times but I guess according to the owner it was never supposed to be to go. I wonder if they know there is a restaurant next door that has no issue with food to go? It's ok. Lots of other places to spend my money and they won't miss me. read more

Great place to watch a game on tv or meet people. Bartenders are friendly and the food is tasty and priced right.

I was amazed at the quality of food. I had the biscuits and gravy and everything was cooked perfectly. My hubby had the breakfast burrito and absolutely loved it. We are definitely going back. read more

Johnny in the back made us the best nachos I've ever had. The atmosphere was very inviting and warm and the people were friendly. Travis was the bartender tonight and he was friendly and full of energy. read more

The ambiance is in the name - it's a locals place. When you arrived you're greeted by the bartender and regular locals at the bar. Seating is open and for a weekday brunch there was a lot of seating. We came for the bottomless mimosas and I love a place that just gets right to the point giving you a bottle of champagne and two glasses of orange juice. Food was made to order and good but I came for the mimosas lol read more

Stopped by for the first time when we had a last minute babysitter. Super fun place with a literal 'Cheers' vibe. Sat at a high top in the back but then got moved to the couch/lounge area when they had to setup for karaoke which was great because it was a much better spot for people watching and chatting with strangers (definitely a few characters!). We got beers and the Margherita flatbread, really tasty. The main bartender (Shenandoah) was so nice - even though it was pretty busy and she was one of two staffers in the front, she came around the bar, introduced herself, and welcomed us in. We'll definitely be back. read more

Friendly staff and would like to come here on a weekend or perhaps around the dinner hours to try the food.

Came her with my family to try and get some brunch for my birthday. Drove 30 mins to this place only to find out they don't serve anyone 21 and under. The city and surrounding areas are in dire need of good quality family friendly places and it's unfortunate that this location doesn't cater to that even though their name implies it's a location you can bring your family and hang out at the local restaurant. I will try to return to give this place a chance and update my review but considering I don't live in this state, it may be a while before I ever go back here read more

From the food to the late night karaoke, local hits the spot every time! Service is always spot on and makes me coming back for more! All the bartenders are super nice and quick with the drinks. read more

Today for game day I went in to grab some appetizers and watch the game with my fiancé and my five-year-old son... I've never been to locals public house before having just moved to Riverside. I've only ever seen the outside of the place, not knowing it was strictly a bar. Since I was with my five-year-old son, I was rudely rushed and shoot out by a blonde woman whom I'm guessing was a bartender/server. The interaction lasted no more than a minute. As soon as we walked through the door, we were being corralled back out...I also being a bartender of 12+ years would not come back to this establishment for simply being treated poorly when it could've been handled with better decorum for something that was merely a small mistake. It's severely disappointing when people who are in the fellow service industry lack in obvious matters. read more

*Brunch Available All Week* The chef is killing it! When I saw the Beer Clams on the menu... I knew I had to get them... glad I did! Definitely my new favorite to pair with a cold beer!

Honestly if I was reading just on the food it would be zero stars! So absolutely terrible. Luckily the girl was serving us was really nice, but this place is a bar don't come here to eat. If he can't cook potatoes so that they're edible there's no hope. I can't cook for shit in my food would still better than what they served us this morning. I'm assuming that this place stays in business because of the drunks that were at the bar on a Monday morning at 9am. Great! I have a place to come hang out when I'm unemployed. Lol I would return for the bar life. I won't be for food. read more

Ended up here because it was open & I was in the area. Only drinks with friends. Will go back to try the food. Friendly fun local bar nearby my friends house. The pricing was fair and the pour was generous. Bartender, super sweet and attentive. Friendly crowd great outdoor seating. Not exactly a dive bar (my jam) but carries the essence needed for that laidback atmosphere. Recommend for the person who likes a relaxed non generic vibe. read more

I randomly walked in this place with my friend after dinner. We had so much fun. We only had two drinks but we stayed all night singing along with all the karaoke singers. The bartender was on point and even singing karaoke while serving drinks! We definitely want to go back. The place is small and it was a very friendly atmosphere. Even the door guy/bouncer had a beautiful voice. I wish I took more photos but it was a neat place. read more

This place is known for their peanut butter shots! You must try, they are really good! Food is okay.

Although it took me MONTHS to finally write a review(Sorry ), the experience left an lasting expression with me and my wife. From walking in, you notice the beautifully decorated bar and sitting area, greeted promptly by workers and regulars alike! But, let's talk about what really drives this review, THE FRIGGIN BEER MUSSELS....OMG. Literally the best comfort food I have had in a long time! If this is your first or 10th time, you will have nothing short of top tier food, service and atmosphere. read more

Was looking for a bar open late nearby besides local restaurants. Stumbled upon this place which closes at 2. They have inside and outside seating with jukebox you can play music if you pay for it. Drinks were cheap, staff were nice and friendly. Didn't get to try the food as we came late once kitchen was closed but they do offer daily specials I believe, would like to come back and try some food out! read more

Oh man, the bottomless mimosas. Need I say more? We found this local gem because of a Yelp search for bottomless mimosas brunch. When you enter you're greeted with a group of locals at the bar and a lot of seating. There's was one bartender on the weekday. We decided on a high table and we're given menu instantly. In order to get the bottomless you have to order food which is responsible haha. She gave us a bottle of champs with two glasses and a side of orange juice to create it to our liking which is with an essence of orang juice. The waffles were fresh and so good! And the home potatoes can't go wrong! Overall food was delicious and there are lot of options - Good thing there's stores and a movie theater at the shopping center so you can wonder around and for a while. read more
