This modern dive bar seamlessly combines a cozy atmosphere with a lively community spirit, making it a favored spot among locals.

Been here on a few occasions while in Valencia. Super cozy. The last time I was there they did karaoke twice that week. So kept going back for that as well. Food is decent. Service is good. The locals are super friendly. It’s still my go to when I’m in town.

Easily the best bar I've ever been too. Fun crowd, well-priced good drinks with a good selection, excellent live music (on occasion), and fun jenga sets that are really good for playing with friends or strangers. Party Naked!

An awesome atmosphere. This modern dive is a melting pot of people. You have everything from the usual fair of people to the nerds, geeks, and hipsters. There are also a varying age groups. They have a emulator and PS4 you can play for free plus trashcan beer pong on the patio. Some nights you have a live band inside and a DJ playing outside. They also have different events, like an art crawl and karaoke. As far as this dive goes it's definitely a Santa Clarita stand out.

My wife and I were visiting the Santa Clarita area and were looking for places to hang out that had good food and drinks. Diane the bartender greeted us as we came in, and the patrons who were there were very friendly. The drinks were great, and we ordered the "combo pizza"..pepperoni, sausage, peppers, onions and mushrooms. The crust was nice and crispy and the pizza was very good! Even better, we didn't pay an arm and a leg! It's definitely going to be one of our "spots" whenever we visit!

This is a great place that can't seem to decide if it's a dive bar or a hipster bar but that said, why decide? The drinks are very fairly priced and the bartenders have always been cool in our experience. Definitely expect some locals who will slur their way through asking your opinion about what they think the week's hot topic is - but smile, nod, and say "yeah, man, this is a great bar," walk away and you're fine. I love that they have darts. They seem to have events certain days of the week including a karaoke night which was hilarious and fun. The bar food is fine and the great drinks make the food even better. Overall, very good time here. We'll be back often.
