This reasonably priced sports bar is a low-key hangout for 20-somethings looking for drinks and American fare like burgers, salads, meatloaf and even pastas and fajitas.
Skip the post-game gridlock and hop over to this sports parlor for karaoke, billiards tables and plenty of cold beer (bottled only).
A lively sports bar close to Angel stadium, this is where baseball fans chat about the ball game over beer and grub.
One of the best spots for pre-game festivities, this is where you can enjoy free booze and a bus that takes you to and from Angel Stadium. Wednesdays you can grub on 25-cent buffalo wings.
It doesn't get much closer to Angel Stadium than this sports bar located right across the street. It's always packed on game day with friendly locals who watch the games on oversized flat screens.
Get away from the crowds and enjoy a more intimate dining experience at this Mexican spot that serves up seafood and meat specialties. You may end up talking more about the sizzling fajitas and frothy margaritas than the game.
This easygoing Japanese restaurant and sushi bar offers a happy hour from 5pm-7pm for guests seated at the bar. If you're in the mood for sushi, it's the place to fill up just before the 7pm season games.
This Irvine outpost of the popular restaurant chain offers 30 varieties of market-fresh seafood and surf and turf options. There's also a famously cheap happy hour from 4-6pm and 10pm-12pm where you can order a juicy burger for $3! Perfect before or after the game.
Okay, we know what you're thinking. But when you're in a pinch and don't want to spend a ton of money, Chili's is a viable option. After all, if Aidan--err, John Corbett--is willing to lend his voice to promote this place, it can't be all that bad.
