    Casual bar and a real one. Prices are as reasonable as you can expect. Rather it's the cheapest given its surrounded by the hotels all around. Open till late. Great to go as a group or just alone. The bar tenders are friendly and cordial.

    Cozy little spot. People playing uno cards, security guard was super cool, $5 for a pint of dos xx, bartender Jenna was nice. Crowd varied, went on a random Thursday night.

    The culture here, beyond everything took mmy heart, lots of love for this bar. Small bar, but the bartenders are very friendly, very welcoming, this goes further than a review, even the customers are real people. Love the environment, love the culture. If a bartender takes their time understand they are doing their jovs. Therapists more than barteneders. Excellent customer service and salesmanship coming from a car salsesperson knowing hows sales should be. Admire this establishment!!!

    The exterior of the bar looks downright terrifying and dank. A talkative man with face and neck tats appeared from the shadows behind a parked car and asked a traveling companion if they were trying to work up the spine to go on. Once inside, the bar was sparsely crowded and surprisingly well lit and friendly. The drinks were potent and well mixed. The windows are blacked out and the minimalist decorations are a welcome respite from the sprawled out, population dense and commercialized California OC environment. The staff was great and the alcohol selection was amazing. It's minutes walk from the expensive hotel and conference district. My friends joked about it being a target for bar rescue but we later found out was actually a former episode on that hallowed show. Don't let the appearance of the place scare you away, just go for it. You probably won't be disappointed and you'll probably get a cool story out of it. Definitely walk, don't drink and drive. Also this is not kid friendly.

    ITS HORRIBLE. Service sucks, no mixed drinks. Only sells beer, according the the girl working. She looked preoccupied talking to others 🤷🏻‍♀️ took her a while to acknowledge us. The place was practically empty, only a few people on a Friday night. The pool table doesn’t work, we told her and she’s like just lift it and shake it a bit. Like girl what. There’s no music unless you pay the machine. A huge waste of time. Drank one beer and left elsewhere.

    Best dive bar near Disneyland. Awesome people and bartenders with all the games on year round. Leilani is an amazing person and bartender that serves up smiles with every drink 🤙☺️

    The establishment itself is awesome. The atmosphere could be really good. The bartenders though are unattentive and give attitude if you don't want your drinks how they think you should have them. I was with my date, I asked for a double my date asked for single. The bartender proceeded to mix all 3 shots together instead of separating the alcohol. One of us is trying to drive. So we wanted to limit the alcohol. If I would have said something her attitude would have been all we received. As witnessed by other transactions with other patrons.

    It was pretty crowded when we got in on a Wednesday night. Not a lot of space to move around. The Cave makes sense... They closed that bar despite full house - interesting decision 🤔 maybe they have a regulatory limit?

    We went on a Monday night. The bar tender was friendly and attentive. The local crowd was welcoming and they had karaoke night going which welcomed participants. Besides that it is what you would expect from a sports/dive bar. We did enjoy our time there, we mainly went there because we were in the area.

    Really cool hole in the wall bar. It looks small from the outside but the inside is pretty modern and comfortable. The drinks are good and the bartenders do a great job. I've been here a few time and I'll probably be coming back.

    This place was great until a person who smelled like cigarette smoke stunk up the whole room. The bartender was excellent though!

    Venturing into the cavernous depths of Anaheim's illustrious Cave, one might be met with the echoes of Zarathustra himself, but, alas, it is the siren call of DJ Wang's ethereal symphonies. Each beat resonates, not as mere sound, but as a Dionysian dance between the Apollonian and the chaotic. In a world where many succumb to the abyss of mediocrity, DJ Wang emerges, not as its victim, but its conqueror, playing bangers that could awaken Nietzsche from his eternal slumber. The Cave, with its archaic ambience, and Wang, with his audacious artistry, manifest an Übermensch of nightlife experiences. One does not simply 'attend' such an evening; one ascends, transcending the common man's notion of a night out. Bravo, DJ Wang, for turning the abyssal gaze of the night into a rhapsody of existence.

    The DJ has the perfect vibes and the 🍷🍻 drinks are sooo on point 🥃. Tip the bartender and DJ/ Host, the atmosphere is friendly and the food truck definitely delivers the best food.

    When the hotel bars close at 11p, this is the bar you will visit as your last location. I love the different crowds mixed with locals and travelers. Fun times and enjoy yourself.

  • 5/5 Ben P. 1 year ago on Google
    Was on a business trip and stumbled upon this beauty of a bar! Cynthia, the bar tender was so welcoming and made it so much fun! She even let a non-customer use the bathroom without much hassle! Highly recommended if you want to have fun!

    Second time being here, nice local bar that is a nice break from the hotels and conferences you might be in the neighborhood for. They have multiple tvs they will okay and sort on request, they have a full bar but it's mostly a shot and beer type of place. (I was the only one ordering mixed drinks the day I was there). As the name suggests it's a cave, the windows are blacked out, can look intimidating, but it's friendly and full of happy locals. No food available but the Mexican restaurant next door will bring food over to the bar. The shelf stable Jello shots should be replaced with fresh ones... But they are still decent. Definitely a place worth checking out.
