Out of Bounds

Babe are great fans super cool hang out for a local bar great drink specials and entertainment is fantastic it’s a cheers of your local bar

Local/​sports bar/​dive bar is how I would describe this place. Only stopped in for a couple of IPA’s drafts, great prices. It was dead on a Sunday in April, which I would expect with no LA teams playing at that moment. Kind of old and beat up, but you know what you are getting when you walk in. Men’s bathroom was clean and the service was good. They have a shuffle board table so that helps! Probably wouldn’t eat at this place.

Was here with my husband and I ran into a group of my daughters friends. Mind u my daughter is a sophomore at Edison and her friends are all the same grade. Way under age. Didn’t say anything I just minded my own business but all of her friends were clearly intoxicated and they were not checking ids.

How often do you go in to a bar and get a good vibe from the security? Chris holds it down and keeps it poppin. Bartenders are chill and keep it movin. Perfect neighborhood bar vibe. I’ll keep coming here.

Hey for neighborhood bar this place is great it’s big enough for a to watch football or baseball games on one side of the bar and are still able to play a game of pool on the other side and get loud and crazy. it’s a dive bar… we love dive bars right?

BAR RESCUE come put this crap hole in check!!!
Disgusting!
Too bad cops don’t park near, they would $bank on DUI arrests!
Smoke pot on patio
Cocaine on patio!

If it weren’t for the hot bartenders, this place probably wouldn’t be around.
Let’s call a spade a spade. It’s a dive bar in Huntington Beach Suburbia. Im assuming the patrons are mainly local yokels that live within a five mile radius. The first thing that anyone who has been to Out of Bounds will say about the place is either:
1-​Damn. They have hot bartenders or…
2– (usually women) The bartenders there are super skanky looking.
Basically, it looks like the owner imported Eastern Block women*, had them surgically enhanced, and put them behind his bar. And that’s what he’s resting his hat on.
That said the food is actually not that bad for what you’d expect at a dive bar. I’ve had the pizza and some macaroni pot pie that the chef was all excited to share with us. Both exceeded expectations which honestly weren’t that high.
The drinks are reasonably priced for the most part. Unless you order a scotch, but I’m guessing they don’t have too many people yelling «Bartender…Scotch!» there, because I had to point out the bottle of McCallan 18 to «Ms. Belarus 2005». And she didn’t know what type of glass to serve it in. I think she charged me $ 15-​$ 17 for it. I switched to Newcastle immediately.
The place was clean and there are pool tables and a golf arcade.
They have a good juke box, but if «Ms. Ukraine 2004» doesn’t like the song you chose, she’ll kill it pronto (they have a kill switch behind the bar), and put Pitbull or Kei$ha back on.
Ambiance-It’s dark and dreary in there. Somehow no sunlight gets in the place, but probably for good reason (see below). It just looks like a seedy place when you walk in. You contrast that against the silicone and peroxide serving drinks (who look like they should be serving bottle service in Vegas) and it strikes you as being a bit out of the ordinary.
The worst part of the place is the crowd. The people appears to be the dregs of Southwest Huntington’s track homes. Some sad and depressing looking people there-​both young and old. The common denominator seemed to be poor genetics and fugly mugs. But I’ll get off my high horse because I’ve been there more than twice, so I guess I contribute to «the worst part» of this place.
If you’re single and looking for eye-​candy on the customer side of the bar, you’ll be looking down at your phone at Tinder the entire time and swiping right. You probably won’t be back. If you’re a married guy 40+ years old and looking to get some mental snap shots of «Natasha and Anastasia», for a romp with the olé lady when you get home, then I’m sure you are there often.
Last observation– watch the bartender girl’s body language and demeanor when they hand you your check. I noticed it every time they handed a guy his check and even when I got mine. They go from mainly flirting and laughing at the terrible jokes of the guys who they probably know are big tippers to giving you theyre full undivided attention, sticking their breasts out, batting their eyelashes, and making some quick small talk in an effort to «rack up» their tips. Pun definitely intended. It’s hilarious. My girlfriend thought so too. She said she was going to use some of those tactics at her job. If I get better Christmas gifts this year, I’ll know she’s doing it.
Oh yeah… the place looks like a Tiki hut.
*Im guessing the bartenders aren’t really from what was once the USSR… they just look like it. Tryin to paint a picture fer ya.

OMG! Nasty! Girls fat and skanky! Used to love this place as a local hang out. Hostile crowd. Fights break out all the time. Bartenders are fat and clueless. How is this shit hole still open. Go some were else! Yuck!

Clean restrooms and cold beer! Just a quick side trip from the river bed trail. Lots
Of TV’s and Po Tables. Multiple taps to choose from. Great place to stop.

I love this bar!
Its certainly a dive bar crowd and has a mix of personality types, but the service from the ladies of OOB is the best. I come in with my finance and she likes the girls more than I do. Great service, attitude, drinks and you even get a Country show from time to time from Shannon, Taryn and Mack… I think this might be the first time I ever even thought about a Unilocal review, but they deserve it and I would want to know about this place if I was looking for a good happy hour or spot to watch games in Huntington Beach.
The food is also legitimate since Juan and his team have been running the kitchen. Quality sports bar menu!

I love that the staff here makes everyone feel like a regular {kitchen is pretty awesome too}
OOB is definitely OC’s finest dive!

Great hangout, even for non locals, great Bartenders: Shannon, Taryn, Rebecca, etc… cool people good drinks great food, great place

A dive bar. Nuff said. But: Pool tables, shuffle board, bar food, local drama, and perty tenders of the bar. Keep your polished dress shoes at home, or go to the goat. An underappreciated true dive.

Cool place to go to with friends…
Tabithia is really nice
Really really cheap drinks

Very cheap drinks, pool tables. What caught my friend’s eye was they didn’t mind vaping indoors. Outdoor patio in front for smoking. Older crowd clientele with TVs to watch the game. Bathroom smells pretty bad and a bit janky so be aware of the stench. Would definitely come back to grab a quick drink near Huntington Beach. It’s been quiet the last few weekdays I’ve gone. Bartender the last two visits were nice. Pretty ladies that were averagely attentive.

Ive said some stuff in the past about the food now i only come for the chicken strips.

There has been a swastika in the men’s restroom for months. My wife told the bartender and she could care less. The only reason I even come to this shithole is that it’s near my house. So months later after multiple complaints to management the swastika remains. So I walked across the street and bought and pack of sharpies and took matters Into my own hands.

This dive bar should be ashamed of it’s bathrooms. I doubt they’ve been cleaned in the past year. Gross!
They do have a lot of tv’s and the crowd seemed friendly on Saturday afternoon.
The woman behind the bar pours good & strong drinks. I would never eat here.

I have lived in HB for about 20 years and finally visited. I talked to others who had been and read the Unilocal reviews before swinging down.
I was treated well. I was in a long sleeve shirt and was not alone (white collar).
Drinks are filed to the top, I am good with that. Bartender looks and acts nice. I did not try the food. But this place is worth a longer visit.

SE corner of Brookhurst & Atlanta
This neighborhood Sports Bar (or Dive Bar to some) kind of struggles for identity… I mean it has the name «Out of Bounds» which tips the proverbial hat to sports, BUT it kind of looks like a Tiki Bar in various places. There’s thatching here and there and there is also Tiki Statues inside and out, but not a whole lot of the Tiki theming as if the décor was somewhat of an afterthough to sort of give the place some character and maybe set itself apart from other places. This is not a complaint, but just an observation.
Judging by the photos that are posted there seems to be some favorite bartenders here which had me looking for mine. I talked to Rebecca one time and she was most awesome. She was shorter in stature, had kind of a high voice, a little bit of a lisp, and just an utter blast to listen to. She was so kind and attentive. She really helped make that particular visit to this place even more enjoyable.
This place is pretty big. There’s plenty of places to sit in the form of booths or right up at the bar itself and there are lots of different types of games (including pool) if you would like. There are tons of TVs throughout if you want to catch your favorite game. There is also a stage for live music. When there is no live music then the background audio is set to a limit that is conducive to normal conversation without having to yell!
Yes it is pretty dark inside, but fortunately not so dark it makes getting around difficult. The bathrooms are kept clean and the clientele seems pretty nice.
The main reason I like coming here… well besides the awesome bartenders of course is for both their reasonably priced alcohol and good food.
This place really makes for a great spot to gather with some friends and soak back some suds or maybe indulge in their great menu.
There is plenty of parking in their dedicated lot.
