This is place is so cool! Came here for a horror event and I had a great time. There is so much space! There’s a spirits haunted house, a terrace overlooking the whole bar, a pool area, a dinning area and a bar area. There’s food omg so good! Got wings and mini sliders and they were delicious. The drinks are awesome I recommend their tap beers

Been waiting to visit Villain’s for over a year! We finally planned a Disney trip and this was on the top of the itinerary! It didn’t let us down. First off, accessing the parking lot can be tricky, as Google Maps couldn’t seem to find the entrance. We parked on the street and walked the wrong way around the building to get inside. So if you go in the evening, just remember the parking lot is the driveway after the house next to Villains along the street. While they didn’t have a wide variety of beer styles, they did have the most popular styles including IPA’s, Stouts, and Seltzers, all of which were delicious IMO. The food came quickly and was very tasty as well. I honestly expected our bill to be far higher than it was as that was the theme on our trip to Anaheim. That was a nice surprise. Grok informed me that Villains might not be kid friendly, but I am telling you they are. Our five year old son LOVED the horror theme and couldn’t get enough of all the artwork and statues. They a large courtyard, a pool(we didn’t actually see it, but heard about it), and a family-friendly environment with a food hall and speakeasy(didn’t see the Soeakeasy either, but that’s the point, right?!!) We actually went back the next night as well with family that arrived a day later. They loved it as well. Only negative? Both is us wanted t-shirts and they didn’t have any in medium or XL. Hopefully they restock soon.

This was a really quick trip and because of that, definitely going to have to take another trip with more time. They have an entire pool that I did not get to explore, a second story and even a room where they have a bunch of cool themed stuff from what the beertender told us. Their Saca La Bolsita sounded good so I ordered it and when I got it, it was the best thing ever! Perfect presentation and incredible taste with the packet of lime salt. Definitely look forward to coming down here again to try more of their good stuff! And the food!

This place is awesome! I can only speak of the outside area because we never went indoors. It’s a very cool vibe the minute you walk in. We had a 4:30 reservation and we were seated right on time. We were served a jug of water and some cups right away. Our waitress was super sweet and she told us how busy the bar was so the drinks may take a while. We appreciate the honesty up front. And yes the drinks took about 15 minutes but it was totally worth the wait! The lemonade seltzer was excellent! Hubby loves the Hawaiian punch seltzer too. The menu is great. A lot of choices from tacos to hot dogs. Burgers to salads. Everything is about $15-$20. The birria tacos were delicious! Our table also ordered the smash burger, half chicken, chicken strips, and the chili dog. No one had any complaints about the food. They even brought the puppy three large burger patties for free. So cool! Parking can be a little tricky but be patient and you’ll get a spot.

I used to be annoyed at this place because of the parking situation! But just make sure you don’t park on the street next door since it’s permitted parking only. It’s best to go during off time and happy hour! So much space and the Happy Hour menu is quite good! We got wings, nachos, sliders, and 2 drinks for 45$! Pretty good pricing. The dogs can get a beef patty for free and water:)

I stumbled onto this place through a Google search of restaurants in the Anaheim area while traveling from LA to San Diego. Casual enough to bring kids but also would be a great place to hang out with adults or at night. The prices were very reasonable and felt like a steal for the quality and taste. The spot has a variety of seating options and lots of shade. BBQ food was amazing. One of the best meals I’ve ever had at a brewery. We ordered the fried chicken sandwich, wings with Korean BBQ sauce, a brisket plate and a kids chicken tender meal. The portions were perfect and everything was delicious. We all agreed that the brisket was the best of the three adult meals. Super tender and flavorful. I had the Sad Mom Lemonade seltzer and it was a perfect combination of sweet and tart. My husband ordered an IPA and loved it. My only regret is that we live on the East Coast and can’t be frequent customers!

Absolutely floored with how good this experience was. Every beer was delicious especially for only being they just hit their 1 year anniversary. The food was incredible, and brisket was super flavorful. The server was awesome and treated us like old friends. We will definitely be back every chance we get.

I love the vibe here! And the decor is so cool. The brisket criss-cut fries were delicious. I enjoyed a flight sampling 4 brews. Loved that I could mix the brews with the seltzers. And the safety meeting shot "watermelon candy shots" delish! Well worth the drive from Palm Springs!

Was very fun and very good went their first time server was super sweet and nice wasn’t busy but the vibes were their and she always checked in food was bomb and so good and would eat their before going to Disney again 10/10

Service was top notch! The beers were excellent and the overall selection was massive. The food was great. The Western Smash was flavorful and juicy. The tenders were delicious. The nachos looked good but they were just okay. Will be coming back!

The Grease Company

Came here on Sunday to watch football. The place is very nice awesome inside food was great. We had chicken wings and nachos barbecue nachos. The service was awesome everyone was very nice. Complaints that I have is that they do not have all the games for Sunday football but that’s understandable since it may be very costly for them. The parking lot is very small you’ll have to park in the street which is OK. Overall I will come back here again without a doubt.

We loved this place! Great selection of beers and hard seltzers. Huge thanks to our server, Yuli, for the amazing service. She was incredibly nice and friendly. We’ll definitely be back!

Invited by a friend to an event held here. I'm not a drinker so couldn't tell you about what's on tap. But referring to the location. Very cool. There's indoor and outdoor sitting. As you walk around you'll see wall art and villains covering them. Keep an eye open and you'll be surprised by details.

Came here for the experience. The place is really cool. Didn't order any food but the drinks are really good.

Have been here twice. Really lively, decent beer. Decent food (lots of options). Nothing blew my mind - food or drinkwise, but this is a solid spot to come back to and enjoy the vibe. Across the street from Anaheim Packing (you can walk there from Packing House). I'd rec to sit at the bar (if it's just 2 of you) or get a table on the larger patio for best vibes (not tables near the bar area). Parking can be challenging since its a small lot, but if you just wait a few minutes, someone should leave.... hopefully?

Happy Friday the 13th! Parking: If you’re planning on driving, don’t do it. Finding a spot is an absolute nightmare. Get dropped off! Ambiance/Environment: This is perfect for those who are horror fans. We visited on Friday the 13th bc they were having a spooky market. There was an extremely long line getting in. It was a bit unorganized when it came to table service, but we just seated ourselves. Service: Shout out to Ben! He was a new server, but he did great being that it was only his third day. Food & drinks: I got the Hot Chicken Sandwich and waffle fries. The chicken sandwich had a bit of a kick to it. It was seasoned well and fried to perfect crispiness. The waffles fries were also seasoned well and paired perfectly with the chicken sandwich. I ordered a “Large Marg” from the bar. It was citrusy, sweet, yet strong. Pricing: It was a fun experience. It did get super crowded closer to the evening. I was told it doesn’t usually get this busy; only on occasions.

I've been wanting to try this place out since they replaced Modern Times, but for awhile I was still kinda mourning the vegan menu that modern times managed to implement. Finally got out there to celebrate my birthday. The food looks and tastes great. The "I'm a little lad who likes berries and cream" is so impressively good that my partner had to order one after he tried mine. I'm not normally the type of person to finish my beer but I finished this one which is a huge praise if you know me. It was a really hot day (97 degrees) but it was mostly bearable with the help of shade and fans. I think I would've considered staying longer if I was cooler though, even my beer got kinda warm by the end. There's nothing that can be done about that at this location so I didn't take any stars off for that. The only reason this lost a star from me was service. In a past life I was a server and a hostess so I'm pretty nice and understanding in general but it felt a bit like the followup service was lacking for us. We weren't ready to order main food when she first came over so we got drinks and an app and they didn't even come back to take our main order until we were mostly done with the app. I'm not even entirely sure she came over to take our order-- she came over to check on us and I told her we were ready and she had to go get a notebook and come back. And once we were ready to close out our tab and get a box we had to go to the bar after waiting 15-20 minutes for her to come back. It did seem like it was getting busier and I think maybe we accidentally sat ourselves (we stood around for awhile and then sat down) so I'm taking that into consideration here too, but I also see some other reviews specific to service so idk. In orange county in general it seems hard to get good followup service once your food is out, so maybe it isn't that big of a deal. We didn't have to wait in any lines but we went at like 4:30 on a Friday and it was hot.

The tacos and taquitos were good. The environment is greatly themed. The bathrooms were missing toilet paper in 2/3 stalls. It is a good place to hang with friends but my drink was just too sweet for my taste.

A few steps away from the Anaheim Packing House is this Brewery’s Restaurant. Shipping containers meets warehouse with a nice outdoor dining area. Bar seating is open and table seating is done through the podium up front. Parking can be a challenge so just use any of the other legal parking lots and streets in the area. Everything is very walkable and that’s coming from someone who takes a car to the corner store. The Open Pool. There is a pool which is really unique for a brewery. This summer it is open during the day. However I’m not sure if it’s just walk in or reservations required as I found conflicting information. So just call ahead and ask. The me he has an abundance of restaurant items from appetizers to full entrees. A great spot for lunch or dinner. The beer selection is strong with something for today’s current market. A good amount of seltzer, lagers, and IPAs. As a beer enthusiast I personally think the beers leave a lot to be desired in terms of complexity. But anyone who likes a good beer and a cool environment would enjoy what they have. Service: this brewery runs more like a restaurant. I see the bar serving drinks for the establishment and servers running around taking orders. I don’t really get the true brewery spirit but nonetheless the space they created is fun and unique. Service does seem to be on of this places challenges as I have been reading and encountered. It took me a while to even order a beer at the bar so I just one and hopped over to nearby locations after.

Our visit had some significant drawbacks. The music was excessively loud, and the misters were set too high, leading to water pooling on umbrellas and dripping onto tables and chairs. To make matters worse, food was missing from our order, and it was challenging to get help from our waitress to resolve this. While the beer and seltzers were delicious, it was frustrating that the vegan tenders were noticeably smaller yet more expensive than the regular tenders.

Crystal

Very cool environment and nice staff. Just not a fan of the food. I tried the burger and waffles fries it didn't have that wow factor for me. I ordered the birria tacos for $17 and they were tiny with no sides and the consume had no flavor.

Let's start with the highlights. Nice set up. Open and closed areas. Lively and fun. We sat outside which was a little cooler but fine this time of year. Summer would be fine in evening. Wait staff was a mixed bag. Partially because of equipment and also it seems a little confusion on menu etc. Otherwise, definitely friendly and attempted to be attentive. Food was also a little mixed. We tried family platter sampler, bone in and tender wings. Wings were good (both varieties, and only things served warm.) Good sauces and nice sized tenders. The bad on the sampler: brisket (no flavor), chicken (desert dry), sausages (cold and questionable if cooked.) The good: tri-tip (good flavor, we ordered more), sliders. Highly recommend: tri tip and tenders. Drinks: got a sample flight, and while some were unique, nothing would draw me to come again. I have 2 breweries that I return to for their house brews that are unique enough I will ignore the ok food. (Not here.) Overall: good group gathering place (except parking that SUCKs.) Good food if you stick with a few options and acceptable beers but nothing to stop just for. Nice enough atmosphere are group vibe that it's seems a fun place for meet ups.

Good atmosphere. Very difficult parking. Unfortunately the service was horrible. Server not around most of the time. Did not order Nachos and two orders were delivered. We had to find and talk to the server and received credit. Food was average. The bill....... Please watch....server comes and says your total, with no breakdown. Ask for a paper bill and check what you're being charged. If you're giving cash, count the cash you're giving with the server. When leaving a tip, make sure it's the amount you want to give. The precentage is on the total bill if you're splitting the bill, not just your share. Very shady that the server does not mention it. No wonder it's called Villans.

I was there for the world series and had a great time and was expecting the same experience for superbowl. From the moment my girlfriends and I got there we were very disappointed. We asked the hostess to be seated near a tv so we could watch the game. She told us there was no volume, to which I asked in amazement, "no volume, how are we supposed to watch the half time show?" She looked very annoyed as she sat us. The bartender came to our table after a few minutes, but soon lost interest in us after we moved to a shadier spot. I had to go up to her and ask her if she could go to our new table and she told me she would get someone to help us. We waited and waited but after a long while had to go to the bar to order more drinks myself. Mind you the place was pretty empty but there plenty of servers walking past us. I finally flagged one server down and I told her my concerns and if we could have the bill. She brought back Sebastian, who I'm guessing was the supervisor. He was very nice and listened to my issues. As my attention was turned to him, the hostess stood on the opposite side of the table to see if I was going to talk about her. What was she going to do, start a fight? This message is to management, do better. In anticipation to the superbowl, the tvs should have had sound. You lost a big opportunity to make money with the Latin community. Train your staff better on etiquette and make sure they don't drop the ball with your customers. A strong team starts at the top. If your staff isn't happy your customers won't be either.
