The service was amazing. We didn't feel rushed or pressured to leave even though it was crowded. Everything our party ordered was good. They had a full bar, so we ordered bloody Mary's and they were perfect. There are 3 or 4 kinds you can...Read More

We stopped in for breakfast with the family. A nice little spot right in front of the beach. The food was reasonably priced and it all tasted great. I would definitely be back if we are in the area again.

Although the decor was very blah...the food was really good. From the Calamari and Shrimp and grits to Fried green tomatoes and Mozzarella salad and deviled eggs...yummy yum yum Right across the street from Seal Beach.

This place burgers are on point. Their fries are like In and Out but thicker. The meat load dinner hit the spot. They grilled their meatloaf so in some ways it was like a Salisbury steak. 🔥 service was really great and friendly

We love this place. Food, service, and atmosphere do not disappoint. After having their delicious food, you can cross the street and walk down one of the longest piers. Enjoying the view and fresh air. ❤️

Another great place in Seal Beach. But this has something that the others doesn’t, and that is a view of the pier. The food is good, the staff was extra friendly. The host sat us and actually struck up a conversation with us. So we...Read More

Blackened mahi on grits was amazing! Chicken tacos were just ok. Buffalo chicken sandwich was spicy and yummy. Alexis was a great server! Not a ton of options if you need to eat gluten free.

I love me some Seal Beach vibes and I totally love The Hangout. Their burgers are absolutely bomb, and the waitresses are very kind and attentive. Their fish'n'chips, their breakfast...all good. I still have lots of plates to try. Can't go wrong with the location....Read More

This is a classic “local” beach bar with great food and staff, plus excellent specials. Each day has a different daily special, like spaghetti on Tuesday or 1/2-off fish on Wednesday. The food is very tasty to begin with, and the deal makes it even...Read More
