I've been wanting to come here forever after hearing so many great things and didn't realize how hard it was to get reservations. Had reservations for a party of four (made via online) and was seated right away. Ambiance is dark and intimate but seating was enough to feel like you had room. Drinks were delicious and strong and service was great and quick. You are limited to eating and drinking within a certain time frame but it's not bad as the servers are on it. Drinks 10/10 and food 10/10. I'm still craving their burger, one of the best ones I have had, I can't even compare it to anywhere else. Bathrooms are located outside of the speakeasy. read more

The Blind Rabbit - The Burger - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Anaheim, California

Been wanting to try this place ever since it opened and finally got the chance to do so. Located at the packing district, expect to park hella far away or prepare to valet. Not sure if reservations are required, but this speakeasy is pretty tiny so I can't imagine it can accommodate walk ins. We had a reservation for 8pm on a Friday night. The door is very well hidden, I thought it'd be in a basement around the corner or something. The space is really small, so big groups are not advised. I had the niña fresa, a strawberries and creme type drink. Delicious! If you like sweet drinks, otherwise do not get it. I had the Saturn afterwards. Still a little sweet, but mostly sour. The server came by to say that we only had 25 min left, so we hurriedly ordered a last drink. But when he delivered it, it magically became 5 min! I chugged my drink and was ushered out the door. Overall it was pretty nice but I didn't enjoy having to rush at the very end. read more

Surprisingly, I've never been to a speakeasy locally (only when traveling!) and this experience genuinely made me feel like I was somewhere far away. The space is hidden and intimate, and once you're inside, it really does feel exclusive in the best way. It adds to the whole experience and makes it feel like a true escape. The food was fresh and thoughtfully prepared, and they were also accommodating with our dietary restrictions, which I really appreciated. Overall, such a fun and memorable night. Definitely recommend making a reservation ahead of time -- it's a small space with only 30 spots and fills up quickly. read more

We have been to the Blind Rabbit many times. They just released their new spring menu, so it was time to return again. We usually eat before visiting, but many of the new food items looked very good, so we had dinner also. They are usually very busy, so be sure to book a reservation on their website. We started out with the empanadas (Shrimp, Mozzarella, Parsley, Chili Flakes, Chef's Bomb Salsa, $18) to get something in our stomachs early. There are two good sized empanadas, perfect for sharing, stuffed full with cheese and plenty of shrimp, with a crisp crust. The salsa definitely has a kick and brings some heat. They were excellent and filling. My first cocktail was the "La Peligrosa" - Vodka Banger (White Hjerte Vodka, Capaletti, Green Chartreuse, Papaya, Pineapple, Lemon, $19). It was balanced and not boozy, with light fruit and a hint of chartreuse which I love. Her first cocktail was the "Oaxacan Trading Co." - Mango Jet Pilot (Oaxaxa Rum, Trinidadian Rum, Lime, Grapefruit, Cinnamon, Mango, Meletti Float, $19). The rums are at the perfect level, and there is some funk. It is nice and juicy, and the grapefruit, mango, and cinnamon are all there. This was our favorite drink of the night. I was going to have steak for dinner, so I ordered the "Viejito En Vacaciones" - Pineapple Old-Fashioned (Sagamore Rye, Pineapple, Toasted Almond, Tiki Bitters, $18). It was smooth and had some light spices. Her second was the "Hole Mole" - Agave Sour (Magenta Blanco, Divin Espadin, Mole, Chile, Lime, Chocolate Bitters, $20). I have never had mole so I wasn't sure what to expect. It was balanced and had some good complexity. It had a light heat and some chocolate notes, very enjoyable. For my entrée, I had the Prime Filet Mignon (Blueberry Red Wine Reduction, Potato Pave, Mushroom Cream, Egg Truffle, $58). Wow, what a presentation! This dish looks like something you'd pay a fortune for at a fancy French restaurant. It was cooked to a perfect medium rare plus, just as ordered. The filet has to be at least six ounces, if not more, and is cut in half and served in two pieces. The mushroom cream was good (there's some mushrooms on the plate also), but I really loved the blueberry red wine reduction. I've never had a poached egg with a filet for dinner before, but it totally worked, and the truffle oil added another layer of flavor. The potato pave (squares) were so good, nice thin slices of potato pressed together with a crispy exterior. This was an excellent entrée. She just wanted a few more appetizers for her main, so we ordered the Papas Bravas (Baby Dutch Creamers, Chorizo Seco, Brava Sauce, Aioli, Parsley Oil, $18). The plate was barely warm when it arrived, so we asked our server if she could heat it up, which she was happy to do. Once heated properly, it was way better and the potatoes and chorizo were both good. The sauce had a little heat to it. We also ordered the hummus (Garbanzo, Pickled Vegetables, Paprika, Toasted Pepitas, $20). This was another visually impressive and exotic looking dish. It's served with warm toasted pitas, and the hummus is flavorful. The pickled vegetables were a nice addition, and I particularly enjoyed the onions and jalapenos. For my last cocktail, I had the Nina Fresa - Strawberries & Cream Milk Punch (Mijenta Blanco, Strawberry, Lime, Milk Punch, $20). It wasn't mentioned in the description, so I was pleasantly surprised when it was served with a nice, thick foam on top. I was even more surprised to find that the foam had a great coconut flavor to it. It paired well with the strawberry flavor of the milk punch, and the lime was quite noticeable. It had a mellow sweetness, and was a good finisher after the more classic cocktails earlier. She finished with the Te Quiero - Tamarind Margarita (Divino Mezcal, Xila, Fernet Vallet, Tamarind, Honey, $19). This had a great flavor profile with a light smokiness. The host Anna was very friendly and seated us immediately. Our server was Georgina who we've had several times. She is always very friendly and provides great service, and this visit was no exception. She mentioned that the kitchen was a running a bit slow that night, and kindly offered us shots of our choice on the house. We asked her to surprise us, and she brought out what I believe were daiquiri shots which were delicious. Our bartenders were Adrian and Ruben, and they made great drinks. The new spring menu is excellent. We really enjoyed both the cocktails and the food. If you haven't visited in a while, now is a great time to come back. read more

I absolutely love this simple little secluded speakeasy within the Anaheim Packing House. The Blind Rabbit was our first speakeasy and for that it will forever hold a nostalgia in my heart but it also serves up some great cocktails, some tasty food and the service has always been tremendous. The Blind Rabbit is very small inside so reservations are always recommended and they typically adhere to a fairly strict dress code (this is currently not being enforced for the time being) and you get a 90 minute limit once inside. We have been here a half dozen times and it never disappoints. The cocktails and food options do change and keeps things fresh as well which is nice although I do wish my Islands in the Heavens drink was still on the menu. Definitely check this unique little speakeasy out if you are in the area and looking for some tasty grub and unique libations, you will not be disappointed. read more

Nice speakeasy at Anaheim Packing District, reservations required! The drinks were yummy; the Saturn cocktail ($18) is the best. The food was ok; we got the Duck Confit Mac & Cheese ($19), Beef Tartare ($23), and a side of fries. It was tasty, but super small portions for the price. It's pretty small inside, but I think that's a lot of speakeasys. It is very dark inside. Service was great, and they let us stay a bit longer than our reserved time since I was late and couldn't find parking. (Parking is really tough, went on a Thursday night and was struggling for a bit) Would come again for their special menus! read more

Enjoyed this speakeasy! It is nicely "hidden" and the ambiance was cool- low lit, eclectic and cozy. The hostess was very sweet and let us in and seated us right away. There were 2 bartenders and a server for the tables. We sat at the bar. One of bartenders seemed to be newer but everyone was very nice. The drinks we ordered were yummy. We also ordered the crab cake, shrimp ceviche, and empanadas. We enjoyed everything we ordered. Unlike other places, there didn't seem to be a time limit or since it was a Tuesday evening, they weren't too busy. Again, the ambience and music were great. There was one area in the ceiling they need to fix but other than that, everything was good. You should def try it. read more

The Blind Rabbit is one of the coolest speakeasies I've ever been too. I've had some of the most delicious drinks of my life here -- Each cocktail is hand-crafted with care and expertise. The food is also fantastic. If you love seafood, I highly recommend the scallops The bar is EXTREMELY small, with less than like ten tables plus a few more seats at the bar. So reservations are key if you want to visit, especially during a busy time or one of their specialty themed seasons. read more

Parking can get hard since the lot is small. The bar is located inside the Packing District. It's best to make reservations 'cause the bar can get packed, and then you'd have to wait awhile. The bar is like a "speakeasy" and is really small inside. But the experience was pretty cool, and the waiter was super nice. I ordered the Candela (which was a fruity drink). It wasn't too strong, and it was really good! Recommendation(s): - Candela Service: 5/5 Tip(s): - Make reservations ahead of time - Parking lot is small - Located inside the Packing District - Bathrooms are outside the speakeasy read more

Found this place while searching for local cocktail bars close to the Anaheim Convention Center. It's located on the lower level of the Anaheim Packing District, which is made up of multiple businesses spread across a few different buildings. The Blind Rabbit is in building B (I think... 2 story building right off the main road). A reservation is highly recommended, as this spot can only hold about 30 people. As I went alone, my reservation was for a bar seat, which was cool as I was able to watch the bartenders make lots of very cool shaken and stirred drinks. This place serves absinthe drinks plus absinthe served the traditional way (cold water on sugar cube into the alcohol). I did not try that, but was tempted. My pineapple old fashioned (Retired Old Man was what Sergio (bartender) told me) was very tasty. The Tamerand Marg with mezcal that I tried next was just okay (should have stuck with the whiskey!). The ambience is great, but it is quite dark inside. Use the light under the bar top to read the menu. There is food available. I tried the crabcake and thoroughly enjoyed it! If you go looking for the entrance, look for the "boxes" stacked against the wall and the black bunny handle (next to a hostess station that may/may not be staffed). Photos were highly discouraged, so I respected their wishes and just enjoyed the moment. I hope you enjoy it too! read more

Such a cool location! Emma (I believe that was her name) was efficient checking us in and leading is to our table. The waitress was also great and there was already water waiting for us. Since the water was sitting out, it wasn't as cold as I would have liked. But that didn't bother me too much since I ordered a Niña Fresa drink! I'd also had the Crab Cake, Creme Brûlée and the Banana Bread Pudding. I enjoyed each item, and my party really enjoyed the bread pudding specifically! The vibes are very unique; dim lighting with books as decor. At first they had music playing on the speakers but later in the evening there was an actual pianist! I'm a sucker for live entertainment. My party and I agreed we would like to come back someday! read more

It was kind of hard to make reservations to this restaurant, but once we arrived, it was easy to see why. The restaurant is very small, with only about 7-8 tables, and it has a speakeasy-style concept that creates a unique and intimate atmosphere. I had heard that this place is known for its cocktails, but unfortunately the drinks we ordered were not really to my taste. For food, we tried the crab cake, scallops, steak, and crème brûlée. The crème brûlée was definitely the standout dish of the evening and the most memorable part of the meal. The crab cake, scallops, and steak were decent, but they didn't particularly impress me. Overall, the cozy setting and unique concept make this restaurant worth experiencing, but the food and drinks were a bit hit-or-miss for me. read more

This place was awesome for grabbing some grub and drinks with a friend! The bartenders are wonderful and know their stuff! Ours was able to make some spot on recommendations. I enjoyed the gnocchi and steak with my drinks.... And then I didn't... Got food poisoning from the probably the egg white in my drink. Worst stomach ache ever. Considered going to ER... woof.. won't be back EVER read more

It took a little while for us to get seated since no one was at the front to check us in, and a few parties with the same reservation time had lined up by the time we were helped. I had really loved the food menu on my previous visit, but I didn't realize the menu rotates. This time I ordered the duck confit truffle mac and cheese along with a tequila sour. Unfortunately, the duck was a bit dry, and the top layer of the mac and cheese was also dry and slightly hard, while most of the cheese sauce had settled at the bottom. That said, I really enjoyed my tequila sour. We were seated at the bar, and the service there was attentive--staff checked in on us regularly and were great about water refills and making sure we were enjoying our food and drinks. read more

I've gotten mixed reviews for this place and I just wanted to check it out for this place. My honest review is, that it's actually pretty great!! The check in area is on the first floor next to the swings (if you know the double swings at the sitting area) and the host tells you if you can sit right away or if it's reservations only. I went on a weekday night without reservations and the speakeasy bar had some walk-in tables available. The inside isn't too big, usually small table or bar style. We tried a burger and some really good cocktails. Definitely recommend this place. This place is quite dark though, and I couldn't really see much of the colors that looked really pretty. But I loved the ambiance so much as well as the food/drink options. Check them out!! read more

This review is about 3 years too late. But found these gems as I was cleaning up the photos from my phone, and given that the final season of Stranger Things is now streaming, I was hoping it would still be fun and relevant. I've come here several times over the years but I once came here with a friend during Halloween. The entire bar was decorated to resemble the Upside Down, complete with a Demogorgon coming through the wall. It was such a fun and creepy vibe that really set the mood. The drinks and service was spectacular, as always. read more

I've always wanted to try The Blind Rabbit. Last month, I heard through the grapevine that they were doing a Harry Potter theme, which finally pushed me to book a reservation. Our reservation was at 9:15 pm on a Saturday night, so we had dinner beforehand in the Anaheim Packing House. At 9:15, we walked over to the hostess stand to check in, but we were told that the kitchen was running behind. We would have to wait for a text to call us back. Around 20 minutes after our reservation time, we were finally allowed inside.  The inside of the speakeasy was stunning. Above, the ceiling was charged with the lightning of mystical storm clouds. And underneath, the soft, warm glow of the bar made me feel like I was standing outside an English pub on a rainy night. It was as if I was standing in Hogsmeade itself on a particularly magical night. Our server Georgina quickly made amends for our delayed seating time by delivering a tray of Cosmopolitan shots on the house. All was forgiven. The Cosmo shots, although strong, were refreshing and delicious - and for $0, they were great value.  My favorite drink of the night was the Lovegood Sour. I'm a sucker for tropical fruity flavors, and combining the pineapple with heavy spiced flavors such as the rye and cinnamon worked well and just made sense. The drink was served on a quirky wooden platter that looks exactly like something Luna Lovegood would pick. read more

This was such a fun experience. The theme was the Grinch and it was perfect for December! Our bartender Adrian was super cool and helpful in deciding what to order. I asked for something not high in sugar and he recommended a guava drink that was AMAZING- wish I remembered the name of the drink! And the presentation was soooo cute! Drink was served in a cute little wooden box filled with ice and some baby's breath for decoration! The taste was 10/10! Adrian recommended their fried olives which were shockingly delicious. And I am not a fan of olives but you couldn't tell these were olives you were eating! 9/10 The artichoke and cheese dip with warm pita bread was amazing as well. And both of these appetizers were perfect and filling. The staff is all really nice and friendly- the bartenders are also cool and engaging- which makes the entire experience even better. read more

This was a pretty darn good spot! Really cool how you have to find the the location (speakeasy style). Sometimes there is a hostess outside the door, so it's easier to find.

It's a small little nook, so large parties are probably not ideal, but I could be wrong. I hope to sit at the bar next time because the bartenders seemed so cool and chill to talk to.

The Blind Rabbit - Here's the menu and the door is open. Here's my chance. I could have said I was returning. - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Anaheim, California

Went there with my daughter on a Thursday night, and overall it was just okay. The ambiance is definitely unique and has a cool speakeasy vibe, but the space is extremely small and surprisingly loud -- even without music playing. Because it's so cramped, every conversation echoes throughout the room, which made it hard to relax and enjoy the experience. The drinks were expensive and very small, and honestly didn't feel worth the price. The food was the same way. We ordered the scallops and the cheeseburger -- $36 for three scallops with rice and $26 for a mediocre burger and fries felt really overpriced for the quality and portion sizes. Unfortunately, the whole experience felt more like a rip-off than a special night out. I don't think I'd return, and I probably wouldn't recommend it to friends. read more

The ambiance was stunning! Loved the theme and the intimacy of the space. Definitely need reservations given how small the bar is. Will not accommodate large parties, the largest table there will fit around 6 people. Food was surprisingly good! Everything was very tasty and delicious. Drinks were amazing. Loved the milk tea cocktail. Very creative. read more

First, a general tip for those unfamiliar with Anaheim Packing District - take a rideshare or carpool if you can, otherwise be ready to commit to circling around the block many times trying to find parking, valet or otherwise. The Blind Rabbit is a hidden in plain sight speakeasy on the ground floor in front of the Roilling Boil, easy to miss if no one is standing at the host stand. Look for the colorful sake barrels which mask the cleverly camouflaged door. Ambience inside is everything you would want from a Prohibition style bar, dimly lit with mood music playing. Their featured cocktails all sounded promising, and I opted for The Long Night, their take on an Old Fashioned. Unfortunately was disappointed with the end product - although there was some novelty of being served in a hot chocolate mug with a gingerbread cookie on top, the bourbon pour was so sparse my friends asked if they forgot to make my drink. My duck confit macaroni and cheese was so-so. Sounded like a cool concept, but the milder cheese flavor only served to enhance the gamey taste from the duck. On the other hand, my fellow dining partners both ordered the Blind Rabbit Burger, and did seem to enjoy it. Just a final parting note, there is a 90 minute limit to the dining experience. As it was Friday night, my party made a reservation for dinner, but sadly still felt rushed the entire meal from the moment we sat down. read more

The Blind Rabbit is located inside the Anaheim Packing House, next to the Shabu restaurant on the lower level. I arrived at 8:15 pm on a Sunday night. I thought I had made a reservation online prior to my visit with my Boyfriend l, but had not put in my credit card information in order to reserve, so I had just put ourselves on the waitlist. While we waited, I ordered a drink at the "box car" bar , which also serves delicious cocktails. After about 20 minutes, the host at The Blind Rabbit able to accommodate us. Once you enter the BR, through the secret door, you are greeted by a dimly lit room, with a Dark Academia vibe. We were seated at the bar, next to the mixologist, who presented us with a menu containing a full menu of cocktails and food. We only ordered one drink because we already ordered a cocktail at the other bar while we waited to get into BR. The drinks that we did order were tasty & the duck macaroni dish that we ordered wasn't bad. It was nice to finally give this place a try because it was on my list for quite a while. read more

First, find the hostess bar and check in. We didn't have a reservation and they accommodated us. Bartender was a genius, knowledgeable and a master at his craft. The bar is beautiful. It's a very small place, dark, romantic, mysterious, yet... casual and comfortable. We had the artichoke dip that was delicious. We also ordered an Empress 75 aka French 75 but with Empress Gin- I don't know how they did it but it was light and refreshing and deceiving. Dead Man Walking, 3 different rums and a lit cinnamon stick. Again, dangerous and deceiving. You will definitely be a dead man walking if you aren't careful haha. read more

Christmas Vomit with The, the, the GRINCH on the menu! I fell in LOVE with ALL of it. Make a reservation and go, there's a time limit you can be seated, so you won't be there too long. No phone calls while you're in the bar, so enjoy every minute of it (Just put the phones away)!! The place is so cute and cozy, it's so easy to forget your in the middle of the Packing House. Drinks are themed after the Grinch Movie. You'll be crying when you see hair on your chest because those drinks are strong!! Priced $18 to $20 for those of you wondering, the rest of the drinks might've been a bit less. Parking is a bit of a pain, be patient, wait for a spot or Valet Park for $9. There is also street parking on all sides. Thanks for reading and be kind! read more
