The Bungalow Huntington Beach

The vibe and the set up are second to none. I think where they need to improve is with the bartending staff and the drinks. Not sure why the bartenders always seem annoyed or bothered by the patrons. Like smiling doesn't cost anything. I get how busy the place gets but you are choosing to work there and you get paid and tipped for it. I have my one bartender I like to go to because he makes some strong drinks and is always positive. Drinks from other bartenders are usually not great.

Awesome location. A beautiful sunny bar overlooking the ocean. The vibe is laid back and relaxed. Great day drinking place. My favorite place to play pool with my best friend

I visited this place two nights. I do so because the first night I came, I felt as though I didn’t get a real feel of it because it was a Saturday. When you see reviews stating that this “has a house party feel”, it definitely does on the weekends. Saturday it was packed shoulder to shoulder. It was difficult to get a drink. You aren’t allowed to sit in many areas due to people reserving tables for table service. The door guy sold a table for 3 people for 450.00. Just to give an idea of cost. I don’t know how they come up with these numbers or if they just wing it. I stood in line for about 30 minutes prior to being able to enter. It was 1030. Long story short on this one, it was okay… I went back on a Wednesday and had one of the worst experiences in my life. There is an app called InKind that the Bungalow partners with that you can purchase credit to use at the Bungalow through the app. It makes it very easy for customers to just come in and basically pay on your phone. My first server Crystal was unsure of the app, but was humble and open to learning about it. Once she figured it out, all was good and first bill was paid. Later on a new server came on. A young gentleman. I ordered a beer, asked him for the check, took the 4 digits at the bottom of the check and paid it with the InKind app. I then walked away to find somewhere comfortable on a couch to sit. About ten minutes later the bartender showed up with a bouncer and started yelling at me saying “what!? Are you just gonna crumple your bill and walk away like that!?” … I was completely lost and taken aback and felt very embarrassed. I tried to explain to him that I paid through the app and that he should go check his computer. He proceeded to tell me he was going to kick me out because I didn’t pay my bill. I then asked him again to go check his computer on his end, because I paid. He stormed off, bouncer to follow. Everyone that had been sitting around me having conversation with me left. I felt very uncomfortable. A few minutes later the bartender came back, quickly said that he was sorry and that I was right… and just turned around and walked away. I quickly finished my beer and left. I don’t know if I will ever come back because of this. Managers should be educating their employees about this payment method so the customer isn’t the one having to walk them through it. I just wanted to enjoy my time here and have nothing but excellent things to say… but, how this was handled was totally unacceptable.
