The Iron Press is a casual craft beer and grub spot upstairs at the Anaheim Packing District. They have burgers, sandwiches, hot dogs, and appetizers as well as a great selection of craft beers on tap. They have dedicated bar seating as well as a short table with bar stools along the back wall. Order your food at the register, and they will give you a pager to let you know when it is ready to pickup. I had the Wagyu Philly cheese steak ($20) which also comes with a side of waffle fries. Everything is a little pricey at the Packing House, but this was a pretty huge cheese steak which I had to tackle with a knife and fork before picking it up to eat the rest. It had a nice toasted bun with plenty of meat, onions, red bell peppers, and mushrooms inside. I usually prefer provolone cheese, but this one is served with a healthy serving of I believe American cheese. This was a tasty and very filling sandwich. The waffle fries were piping hot fresh out of the fryer, and came with a side of ketchup and ranch. They were very busy, and the cashier was still very friendly. When my food was ready to pick up, he apologized for the wait. This is another solid food place in the APD. I usually eat at one of the food spots before hitting some of the bars here, and Iron Press will now go into the rotation. If you're a beer drinker, you can both good food and beer here. read more

Walking into the packing district you have so many options. I immediately gravitated to their taps, great options! I opted for the ROM American Lager; and the invita Mexican lager for the wife, we split some wings and hung out with Cris! Now the beer and food are great, but Cris is an absolute joy, welcoming, knowledgeable and friendly. The bar is great place to sit and chat, and he's so cool. When I come to OC im always stopping by Iron Press. 10/10 highly recommended. read more

We came here on a weekend evening and the place was pretty full with people on the bar seats. We were a group of 3 and got some seats at the bar as well. Someone in our group got the speciality burger with egg, another the plain burger, and I got the turkey sandwich. I wouldn't recommend the turkey sandwich. The bread was dry and not toasted, and the turkey was bland with little flavor or sauce. My friends seemed to like the burger more and said that they liked that. To add a half order of fries to your order, it cost an additional $5, and they were small. Overall, the place was fine but not super amazing. read more

Great selection of beers on tap & always friendly! We stop here every time to get a beer to enjoy with dinner.

Pretty cool bar! There's only bar seating available, no tables. So, you have to be okay with the full on bar scene- loud music, drunks, uncomfortable bar seating, etc. My husband and I sat down for a while at the bar. I wanted some mozzarella sticks. I guess I was in a mood for cheesy. lol The cheese sticks came out after 15 minutes. They had a really impressive cheese pull, not gonna lie. The taste was just alright. Flavor could have been better. The carrots and veggies that came with it were fresh. read more

Love love it here -Yelp Fam if you need a nice relaxing place to have a drink, watch a game, or just need to chill, this is the local place for you. The staff is amazing, everyone is always friendly, fun, and always up to give their suggestions. Which we know is always a plus, especially if you are indecisive. The food is great, I love getting the simple smash burger and the Garlic Parm waffle fries are on point! I also suggest their cheesesteak if you love those types of sandwiches. It's the packing house so it's loud --but the great thing is they have an outdoor patio if you have larger groups or prefer a less overstimulating experience. The patio area is great for kids and groups. The bar is also great for those Dodgers games--and yes Angles games. We love to come here on Trivia nights, even the customers are great and so friendly. Go try out this place for great food, awesome vibes, and smiling faces! read more

LOVE this place. Heard of this place from one of our fave Disney influencers, Eric-Beastlyappetite. The service here is fast! We've been when it's busy and when it's not. Both times we've been attended to quickly. It's a small bar upstairs in the corner of the Packing District. Bar seating and a wall "bar" seating area also. The food was so simple but so good and made fresh! Prices are great. This is definitely a go to for us now! DEFINITELY get the burgers & Mozzarella Sticks!! 1000/10 read more

****Late post**** This place is the bomb!! Iron Press is located in the Packing District and let me tell you that if you choose here, you won't be disappointed. Prices are decent, the guy at the counter was nice and friendly and food came out quick. The ambiance is cool and hip. The tables at the Iron Press is limited but there are more in the common area. Let me start off by raving about the Hangover Burger! This is deliciousness in your mouth with every bite you take and the hamburger was cooked well!! The size of the burger was perfect: not too big, not too small but just right!! I had to come back and eat it again before our flight home. My husband had the Chili Cheese dog which was good. Overall: experience was great and would recommend anyone to try this place at least once! Side note, parking can be hairy and would recommend valet if you can't find any. Luckily, we found a stall when we came the first time but the second time we had to use valet. read more

My review is for their beers, which they have a great selection of local craft beers! We tried the doom juice from Gamecraft brewery which was a hazy double IPA which I liked. Was juicy and fruity with a little bit of hoppy bitterness. Would come back for it again or check out the actual brewery! The other beer we tried was back to the phuture which was also a great IPA but it was dull in comparison when I drank it after trying the doom juice. Very quick service, there's bar seating or outside patio which looked nicely covered. Our beers came in plastic cups so we can take it to-go if we were dining elsewhere in the packing district. read more

I forgot the person that served us but he was super cool and super friendly, def helped us on what to order. I had asked what's better Philly cheese sandwich or the hangover burger, as usual I expected he pick the more expensive option but he didn't. He chose the HANGOVER and that what I got. And glad I asked cause that burger was amazing like I think the burger was cooked in the bacon oil cause omg that smacked. Only thing was the egg was fully cooked through so wasn't as runny but def hit the spot wouldn't change a thing about it. After I saw him and the girl serve up some drinks had to get back in line and order some we got the MICHELADA w/ DONNA PICKLE BEER, she loved that she looked up to order Donna pickled beer. Had gotten the Watermelon seltzer just In case the michie wasn't good sorry we doubted. WOULD COME HERE WAY MORE OFTEN!! Ps: only place you can watch a game read more

Only fitting that my 100th review would go to a great establishment like The Iron Press... from the amazing, welcoming service to the endless selection of great beer/ciders to delicious food. The vibe is casual with a bit of alternative rock playing in the back with the basketball game playing during March Madness. What else could you ask for? To eat we got the Hangover burger and Spicy fried chicken, both were really good. To drink I got the nitro milk stout which was so smooth and my husband got the strawberry like cider which was really refreshing.... We'll be back for sure. read more

I visited this location with my close friend and was very excited to try this location out. Unfortunately I had a terrible experience because the bartender made my friend extremely uncomfortable, so we left and did not even get to see if things were any good. Service needs to be reevaluated and coached. read more

I love this place truly because of their beer options. However....I've had their spicy chicken sandwich about a year ago and it was amazing. Fast forward to today. I asked for the spiciest sauce and shocking to me it was not spicy a AT ALL!!!! read more

This place was overpriced for what it was. My GF and I were craving a nice burger, and the pictures on Yelp looked great. It's located in the Anaheim Packing House, so the parking is limited on the streets if you don't get valet. Upon arriving at the packing house, they still require masks, so make sure to bring one. I got the hangover burger ($14) and garlic/parm tater tots. The burger patty was dry, but the toppings were good. The smashed tater tots in the burger were different but good. I didn't like how the bun was an English muffin; it didn't compliment well, in my opinion. We enjoyed the garlic parm tater tots the most. I ended up paying $40+ for two burgers and sides. I would probably skip this place if I were to go back to the packing house unless I tried their beer selection. read more

We came to the Packing District looking for Dim Sum but it was a long wait and decided on trying this place instead due to time constraints. We had a few Suds and I decided on the Hazy Fuzzy Logic. I had also ordered the Wagyu Philly sandwich with Tater tots. The place had a huge line but the wait for the sandwich wasn't too long. The Beer was perfect as well the Tater tots were good and plentiful. Sandwich was very tasty and it was a great combo. Packing District had a good vibe and live music on the busy Saturday night. The place is not too pricey and you get a good portion. Definitely. a good place to grab a sandwich and suds while taking in the busy District. read more

Ordered the classic cheeseburger and it was very very delicious! It's quite sizable burger and perfectly cooked. Recommend to pair with their ranch sauce. Ordered chicken tenders for my kid. Unfortunately not great. The batter was a slightly burnt on the outside and too oily. It fell apart as well. Great customer service. Staff were very pleasant and welcoming. read more

Tbh, we came in because there was a Yelp elite experience at Pie Hole and we had tickets to Spider-Man No Way Home. We walked around the Packing House to see if there was anything that caught our eye. We have ate at Iron Press before but, it was years ago. TNF was on so my husband suggested dinner here. We sat right up at the bar. The service was great. Super helpful with making food and drink selections. My husband who doesn't drink (Forever DD) got the hangover burger with tater tots. Of course, I took a bite of both. The burger was perfectly cooked. I love eggs so that made it yummy. I ordered the spicy chicken sandwich level 3. It wasn't super spicy and honestly, it's nothing I would typically order but, I really liked it. There was just enough batter. The coleslaw cut the spiciness. I got it was garlic Parmesan fries. The garlic Mayo dipping sauce is bomb. Come on, it's garlic and Mayo. How can it not be delicious!? I ordered some seltzers. Overall, I enjoyed our dinner. It wasn't too crowded and service was great! read more

Cheesesteak was top notch and beer selection is great. But I had to drop them from 4 star to 2 Star for the fries. They are an expensive addition and they legitimate have me 3 French fries. Not exaggerating, just 3. It feels like a place with such good beer and solid food, shouldn't cheap out on the little things. read more

I was looking for some wings at the Packing House and decided to order here since there wasn't line that busy Sunday. I ordered 10 buffalo wings and a full size of tater tots to share. The wings were okay. The sauce was good but the meat was a tad dry. It was still good though and I enjoyed them. The tater tots were really good. For 10 pieces of wings and tots the total was $33 which I thought was high. I'd probably come back and try something else. read more

Iron press is the go to tap room in Orange County. They always have a great selection of beer. The beer tenders are amazing there. I had a couple beers/ciders and they garnished up and they looked amazing and tested even better. To me this is an elevated tap room. I highly recommend. In case you're looking for it, it's on the 2nd floor of the Anaheim packing house. read more

The family and I drove up from San Diego to the Anaheim Packing House for lunch. There are so many options to choose from. I settled on the Iron Press and wasn't disappointed.

Located on the second floor of the packing house, this spot is known for their good beer and their chicken and waffle sandwiches. The sitting area right in front of the spot is limited, but you can take your food else where in the packing house. IF you do get a seat, make sure to get grab a nice dark beer and catch a game on the big tvs! When we went here, we didn't get the well known chicken waffle sandwich because it was all sold out, but instead got a solid Wagyu Philly cheesesteak and tots. That definitely hit the spot because the sandwich was huge and filling and the tots were served hot and crispy (as they should come)! Overall, if you get there early enough, make sure to try out their famous chicken and waffle sandwich. If you can't get that, the spicy chicken and the wagyu philly are very close seconds. Come early, grab a seat and enjoy the packing house ambiance! read more
