I fell in love with this place as soon as I came in. Very welcoming bar with cheap beers. They also serve "big boy shots" as I like to call them. Jim is one of the nicest bartenders I have ever had and surprisingly remembered me the second time I came after a few days. I'd really recommend this to anyone who doesn't want to go to an annoying tourist trap bar. I am really looking forward to coming here again someday.
Since The Cork Bar was too crowded, we ended up at The Bearded Clam for refreshing iced cold beverage. We were lucky - everyone was able to find seats at the bar but not all together. Rick was friendly and attentive. I enjoyed an Angry Orchard Crisp Apple while the rest of the party enjoyed Evolution Craft Beer on tap.
Fun time , not to pricey for location. Bartenders were attentive and quick with your drink. Pretty diverse crowd, everyone seemed to be having a good time.
Definitely the best dive bar in town. The best bartenders and the best crushes. They also have a carry out liquor store in the other half of the bar.
It's always great to see Rick & Jimmy at the Bearded Clam! They always have a smile. It's definitely a fun place to have good drinks??, meet friends and new people, or shoot ?
Great no frills bar. Chip is a great bartender
Best orange crushes in OC!
Always good to go to the bearded clam and get a couple orange crushes great place great bartender
Your basic garden variety corner dive bar. Beer is cold pretty cool atmosphere but the fruit flies in the men's room is really pretty gross.
May be a dive bar, but what a great spot!
