    One of my go-to spots to sit while I eat what I ordered around Haven City market. The bar have plenty of beer or cocktail options to choose from. I've watched the dodger game here before as well. Cool chill place to hang around without a pressure to leave.

    Cab serving: $11

    This was my first experience at Haven City. I thought the prices were high for what you get. Had a glass of wine for my wife and it was a small pour of a no name wine for $11. Nobody in line in front of me so I was able to get my wine quickly and after I left, not many people around this spot.

    This is located next to the potato corner and has the side corner of Haven City in the IE. The open space is perfect especially to watch the dodger beat the Yankees 2024! Can't wait for them to sweep. Anyways the staff is super friendly and gives great cocktail and beer suggestions ! Definitely come and celebrate sports game and try all the local beer selections and selective high quality drinks!

    Blonde
    Linh Y.

    First off, I do not drink alcohol normally. Though I have tried it many many blue moons ago in my early twenties. Nowadays, it's not even on my drink list. Anyway, I was at a recent Yelp event in Haven City Market where Native Son offered a sampling of one of their beers called Blonde. For some reason, my intuition said go for it... you only live once... why not now LOL! I was hesitant because I had to drive home and I wouldn't want to be under the influence. Despite of it all, I went for it and I was amazed that the Blonde was so very light in taste... it was almost as though I was drinking a sparkling beer. It was very refreshing indeed. I had to come back and get another Blonde. I was hooked LOL. I better not get too used to it if you know what I mean LOL. A big cup for $8.00 is not bad at all. For some reason, this time around... my Blonde was a bit heavier in taste. I can taste the slight bitterness in the beer compared to last time. I was still okay to drive though. Will I get the Blonde for a 3rd time? I don't know... maybe once in a while, but not all the time. Gotta watch my belly fat LOL. The lady who poured me the Blonde was very sweet. Great staff and service all around. This bar is located in the perfect spot right in the back corner. It has a very relaxing and laid back ambiance. Nice place to wind down and have some drinks with friends after work. Happy Hour Time!

    In this photo you can see part of the bar and menu they got.

    I've been told native son has the best palomas around so I decided to see for my self and they're on point. I've been there twice and drinks are always good, however, service not much. Theres this guy that took my orders and both times he was like i didnt derve his service. I didnt know sizes, i asked and he pointed at them on a rude way not even speaking to me. Service is key so I left with no tip. Spot is very neat, so many options. Definitely will go back when I don't see that guy at the register.

    Located inside haven city market. From the main entrance head straight back and turn right. It'll be on the far right wall, next to potato corner. Second visit here, service was great. They have a good selection of brews. Menus posted on large digital screens. They also have a screen to watch the game. Registers have tap to pay easy and convenient. Tables and bar area are for patrons only. Don't mind if we do! We were able to enjoy our lunch while trying out a stout. On a busy day there aren't many tables available in the restaurant row communal seating. So it was nice to have a private table inside. Plenty of free parking available. There's also a large patio area or banquet area both first come first serve. Check out the calendar of events to catch some live bands.

    High end beer in plastic cups; that is disappointing.
    Erwin M.

    Pretty simple here. Good beer selections from IPAs, reds, stouts, and nitro pours. The price is a little high but when you want a high end beer, you're pretty much at their mercy. The big drawback for me is being served the beer in a plastic cup like I'm at a baseball game. If you're gonna charge high end price for a beer, have the decency to provide the beverage in glass. The tabletop seating is small; not good for groups with lots of food. The barstools are uncomfortable but serve their purpose. Servers behind the bar are quick with their pours in a professional manners. Lots of TVs to view any sporting event you want. Overall, good beer, good service, average seating, high prices, bad presentation, and good TVs.

    ADULT SMOOTHIES! That's what we call them. Sunday fun day with any margarita is perfect. Service is quick and seating is limited.

    The tap list!!
    Rae Ann D.

    We love native son! We try to go at least twice a month and try new beers. The list of beers on tap is always so good. Small and larger breweries featured! The bartenders always usually recommended something too, and help to decide from the 20 something beers on tap they have. The vibe inside is awesome because it's in Haven City Market kinda tucked away in the far corner but we live the ambiance for a small quaint little place. I gave 4 stars though because some bartenders are more friendly than others, for instance the bartenders last night (Tuesday night) were super awesome and gave great recommendations!!! Try to at least go to Haven City Market but really go here for Native son! They also have happy hour specials and certain days of the week they have specials too!

    Did I just find my new favorite bar? Yup! Saturday night and I don't want to get dressed up but I want a good drink and yummy food. Found it! First time here, ordered my favorite drink Penicillin and they know how to make it!!!! Yay! Soooo good. My husband ordered an Old Fashioned and he was impressed. He also ordered The Mexican Firing Squad which is great if you love Tequila. They have a Holiday Market today so I'm gonna do some shopping and eat some yummy food here at Haven City. P.S. Bartender is great! They have locations in Santa Ana and L.A.

    I just got carded lol!!!!  :D.

    I finally made it to their week day Happy Hour, Monday-Friday, 3-6pm on a Thursday late afternoon with some of my Inland Empire buddies. I first learned about 'Native Son,' from attending a former Zoom Yelp Event that Yelp hosted during the beginning part of the Pandemic years. Native Son offer Cocktail drinks at $8 per drink during Happy Hour. The plastic cup came in a pretty good size. When the ice cubes started melting, the drink tasted more like lime juice so wasn't as strong as the beginning several sips of this Margarita I ordered. My friends don't normally know me as a drinker, but I do drink, Only socially as such!!!! Yummmm, especially with a nice crowd of friends. The cashier, per my receipt shown, Jeffrey I came across was friendly and so was the bartender. I didn't catch just the bartender's name though. She was chatty enough answering my questions about their Happy Hour offerings just to double check! My purchase today also came with some beer brand stickers and a drink holder. They don't serve food during Happy Hours (I also double checked with the cashier upon ordering), but the Margarita I ordered was delish!!!! Ok, it's Now time to water down the Margarita!

They even offer a special cocktail menu just for these evenings. None of the featured drinks seemed appealing to us, so I ordered a Lemon Drop while my husband went with an Old Fashioned. The space is intimate, cozy, and beautifully decorated with a New Mexico inspired vibe that gives it a unique touch. The bartender was super nice, and the music was great all night. It was definitely more of a lively atmosphere, so conversation was a bit difficult at times due to the volume, but we still had a wonderful time enjoying the drinks and music. Overall, it was a fun experience, and we're glad we stopped by. We'd love to come back on a non Sunday evening to experience the speakeasy in a different setting.

I truly felt bougie here. My whole group can't get enough of the complementary popcorn. My ONLY gripe is the reservation system that looks like it's always booked - but even if the reservation looks full, there will always be a place for you here. This is a must for any fan of drinks or speakeasies.

I initially called four times before coming in because I was trying to avoid feeling disappointed if they were unable to accommodate me. No one answered. When I arrived, I sat at the bar in the area designated for disability access, but there were cups and other items taking up the space like last time. As soon as I sat down, the bartender she rushed over to clear them. At least this time she wasn't rude. That area should have been kept clear and accessible in the first place. Not everyone can sit comfortably at a high-top, which is exactly why designated accessible seating needs to remain available and unobstructed. People who need accessible seating should be able to use it without feeling like they are inconveniencing anyone. The bartender also seemed to need more training when it came to basic bar service and managing the space for customers. When my food was ready my to go drink was not made.. the guy who handed me the food said, I should let the bartender know. I replied if I order to go, the drink ticket has been sitting at the bar. Why would I have to tell her anything. It's her job to see a ticket and make the drink.. He shooked his head yes and let her know. I placed a to go order. The drink ticket had been waiting. I used to bartend at a very busy dive bar, so I understand the job and the expectations. I never kept cups sitting all over the bar or allowed my workspace to limit where customers could comfortably sit. I also payed attention to the drink ticket orders. Unfortunately, based on my experience, I wouldn't recommend sitting at the bar during the day. Hopefully management provides better training and makes sure the accessible seating area is treated with the attention and respect it deserves. When I got home they didn't include the pita chips to eat with what I ordered..

The Lanai is located in the Cravings food court area at The Station shopping center in Eastvale. There is plenty of parking available. We went inside to the Shuck Oyster bar and entered The Lanai from there. It is actually more of a tiki patio than an enclosed tiki bar. However, the tiki décor is great with plenty of bamboo, carved tiki figures, hanging puffer fish, tiki style signs, and many tropical accents. There are overhead fans spaced around in case it is hot outside. We had one round of drinks and several appetizers. The coconut shrimp and lightly battered Shishito peppers were great and the sauces paired well. We have had these appetizers at Stowaway before and they had the same good quality. She ordered the spicy tofu bites. I'm not usually a fan of tofu, but they were surprisingly really good. I had the Adrian's Mistake cocktail which was well balanced and a little on the strong side. She had the Right Of Passage which was good and had a light fruit flavor and you could definitely taste the mango. The one man show Brandon took great care of us. It was slow at this time of day so we got a chance to chat with him quite a bit and service was fast. They have a weekday happy hour from 4pm to 6pm. Although we didn't specifically order off the happy hour menu, three of our items, including both cocktails were part on it. I give it 4.3 stars but rounded up to five stars. I'm sure the ambience is much better in the evening when it more lively and dark outside. They have a good variety of munchies, and the cocktail menu has a good mix of tiki classics and some originals. I don't think there any many tiki bars in this area, so I hope they do well.
