This is a great place to hang out and have a beer, shoot a lil pool and dance with the locals even when your not a local lol..... Friendly place I've enjoyed myself every time. Plus the the pizza is yummy yelicious.
(5)Bre T.
It's ok to hang out, for a dive bar. Horrible place to work for however. They take out a half hour break from your pay check, even though you never get a break. No POS system and frank the owner is very rude. Bar rescue even tried to help the place and the owner refused. Such a sad thing when they could have been helped.
(1)Trisha R.
Tumbleweeds aka stumble weeds ... Dive bar services is awful and not worth your time !

Dropped by here after Sealegs to finish off the evening with Renee (my SFAM, sister from another mister) this past Tuesday. It's a pretty cool space with a big long bar, dance floor and stage, but it was DEADER than a door nail. Okay, I get it, it's Tuesday. But as much as I love me some karaoke, I'm not sure how they're justifying paying for the host. There were literally less than ten people in the bar from the time we arrived until we left. I'm not complaining, I haven't held a microphone since I went cruising in May with TBF (the boyfriend). I got to sing three songs over the course of about 45 minutes. The karaoke jock was pretty decent, just name your song and it's done. No shuffling through binders, blah blah. I'd go back there to chill again. It seemed pretty relaxed with a decent beer selection.

This place was really dirty. Their bathrooms were filthy & smelled. They only had 1 out of 3 toilets working.They need to clean the place up.
(1)Billy M.
Don't waste you're time. Had a live band that was awful. Management was rude and unaccomadating. Food wasn't too good and overall really bad experience.
(1)Tom C.
Lots of pool tables but not one pool cue worth a shit in the whole place. Stupid never changes
(1)Steven R.
Live Karaoke Sunday - Tuesday and live music rest of the week. One of the few places left to hear real bands! Karaoke KJ, Donnie, is good guy and will fit you in the rotation. He has an excellent sound system and a tremendous library of music... virtually anything you want to sing he'll have. Beers are reasonably priced as is food. Good place to grab late-night snack when the midnight munchies strike. Gets the job done. However, I wouldn't order food there at normal dinner time. Workers there are nice, but bathroom (men's anyway) is gross. Always filthy with nasty smell. They actually keep the bathroom door open to let the odor escape. All-in-all, decent dive bar.

Went out to celebrate my job promotion, im 23 years old my 2 girlfriends that i went with are 25 and 26 years old. The bouncer who looks like a reject from the police academy told my girlfriends that their Driver's licenses were fake b/c their birthdays were a month apart. Both my friends (1 who happens to work for the state and the other who has a Masters im chemistry) .He let me in no problem, but when i asked to speak to the mngr and the bouncer said "sure w/e" with a bunch of attitude. I asked politely "do you know who that is?" And he responded "yea i work here". Verrrry dudly. I said "well can i have his name?" He said "frank" so i go up to the bar and ask to speak to the mngr and the guys behind the bar start tlking to eachother in spanish (one turned out to be thw owner) said they couldnt do anything. One of the patrons sitting at the bAr said "you probably dont want to try, thats the owner behind the bar and he doesnt like having younger people in here so he tells the bouncers to turn young ppl away" i was SHOCKED! So we decided to take our 8 friends else where. (Downtown) and had an amazzzzinnng night!!! Moral of the story, DONT GO TO THIS DIVE BAR IF UR UNDER THE AGE OF 25! Theyr assholes!

I was shouted at for being gay by a customer and within 30 seconds we were kicked out. I had 3 forms of ID and I was refused entry after that.
(1)George P.
Weakest pours I think I've ever had in a bar. Expensive. Crappy service. I'd give zero stars if it was an option.
(1)Tom C.
man - another joint I haven't hit in years. Although the outside got a makeover a few years ago, its still the same, dirty dive joint inside!! and I like it!! you need some new pool cues though, when the tips are completely smashed, or even gone altogether, its time to spend $50 for a few more new ones. and maybe the table coin actuator could use some lube - it sucks when it gets stuck every time. other than that, come on in and enjoy a beer!!
(3)Betsy C.
Ain't nothin. .. but a good time. ..!!! Been here plenty of times with good friends for good times. Live bands, good cocktails, great food, great times! one thing tho. .. we requested a room for a party, (which, we know is available ) but the deposit was outrageous and we opted out. Still had an awesome short stay with an after party at a nearby house. Could've made a ton more bucks tho boys! ! ... Just sayin...!
(4)Paula L.
Ugh! Never a destination, always just a stop by. I know, I know.....it's popular dance place for peeps of all ages, but it's across the street from a trailer park! You know those people have to go SOMEWHERE that's within walking distance! And that means lots and lots of the SAME people weekend after weekend..... Bands are always popular here, and even some of the best local musicians play here, but you gotta get out of there early. The crowd gets surly and the drinks get weaker. Or....maybe you say, the crowd gets better looking, and what's wrong in trailer parks? Go if 'Those Guys' are playing, but other wise, don't say I didn't warn you.
(2)Lorri D.
After clicking between the 3 and the 4 star about 7 or 8 times I finally landed on the 4 star option... mainly because of our waitress and our bill. A full night of dancing, cocktails (meaning shots and mixed drinks) and a nice healthy plate of loaded nachos and we had a tab of $60! Nice! Our evening cost less than our taxi ride to and from! (granted we two lovely old ladies did have drinks purchased for us... but still) We did not know what to expect from this place. I'd read Yelp reviews and it seemed to be a mixed bunch of reviews and also a mixed bag of people... well, that's kind of how I felt too. Definitely not a typical young crowd, but also not a drab old crowd either. There was a live band (I believe it was "Thank You Drive Thru"?) that rocked the classic rock all night with high intensity, they were pretty darn good! Everyone on the crowded dance floor was having a great time and no matter the age we all seemed to get along and have so much fun together. For some reason I was completely enjoying the big industrial fan with some other ladies (and guys) and we dubbed it the "sexy fan"... making it really fun to dance in front of just like the sexy ladies in all the sexy music videos... but then we aren't reviewing our dance moves are we? Bartenders and cocktail servers were all really friendly and attentive, even when we just wanted some water or a glass of ice. Served with a smile and we were checked on regularly. We ordered nachos to split with the table, as mentioned... they were pretty darn yummy, loaded with all kinds of stuff and reasonably priced. Nope, it's not your high class place, and no it's not your local swanky disco, there's no techno music or mechanical bull (thank gooness).... but if you want just honest down to Earth, please-everyone music and atmosphere, it will probably do. It's a fun place.... probably more so for ages 35-55ish, but we're the funnest age anyway, because we don't give a shit or have an attitude. Just don't stand in front of our sexy fan!! :) Cool place to hang, I survived unharmed and left the joint happy and had fun stories to relive the next morning... all in all Tumbleweeds hosted a great party. CHEERS!!
(4)James W.
Not a dive a dump! Overpriced liquor you've never heard of, menu full reheated frozen food, and a crappy loud band. If you want find out where your parents kick it on the weekends, boom there you go! Go downtown, go uptown, anywhere but here!
(1)Mike M.
This is a good local dive bar. The décor is western, which really doesn't go with anything the bar does. They usually have a good and on the weekend that plays hits from the 80's through today. The staff is nice. No line, and no cover. There are pool tables, dancing and some seating. Unfortunately there isn't any outdoor space. The crowd can be a bit on the older side but it is a dive, and not on Main Street.
(4)Patrice T.
Love this bar great employees super cool owner Frank. Lots of dancing pool tables and some really great locals
(5)Ryan C.
If you're looking for a fancy place to throw back some crafty cocktails... this is not the place for you. This is a dive bar with cheap thrills, live karaoke on the weekends equipped with pool table and foosball in the back. They have a good selection of old video arcade games, however, none of them were turned on and it looked like they had been off for quite some time. For a Saturday night, the place was decently packed in celebration of St. Patrick's Day. I'm almost sure there was karaoke with a live band backing- that, or someone was sort of off tune. It's definitely a mixed crowd from younger 20-somethings to people in the late 40's. All dancing to old school favorites such as "White Wedding," "Love Shack" and other 80's favorites. As other reviewers have stated, you'll get a mix of everything from cougar types, hipsters, punkers, guys in khakis, and beach bums. I saw them bringing out food, I would probably skip that part. Everything came out on paper plates and the place didn't look all that sanitary. The bathrooms were pretty dirty and the tap water was pretty plastic tasting. Those are sure signs for me to avoid the food. It was traditional bar food, and the people that were eating seemed to enjoying it- me on the other hand, will not take the adventure. I'll definitely be back for some cheap suds. The staff was really nice and the waitress that we had was super friendly. Parking is abundant in the lot and there are some pretty good spots to grab a quick bite before heading in to the abyss. This place is close to the beach and much cheaper than the stuff you'll find on Main St. without breaking the bank.
(3)Kim H.
Great dive bar. Love this place also very convenient since I can walk to it from my place!
(4)Amanda B.
Its one of the best local dive bar/ honky Tonks I've ever been in. Even though, is 1 block from the beach it has never lost its local draw. The food is always good and the bar is always stocked with a wide array of booze, wine and beer. Good entertainment is always available especially, if you consider the local folk. They don't usually charge but, it might cost you a beer. Only complaint: we need a happy hour. :)
(4)Julie L.
I came here after a staff party at Mama's. This is an old neighborhood establishment with pool tables, booths, and that green fluorescent lighting. Not much to say - you don't come here on purpose.
(2)K C.
Always heard it called by "Rumbleweeds" but never had the pleasure of having an incident. That was until my bro started punching in songs on the open jukebox, the the 50 year-old apparent Guardian of the Juke started telling him to not put in GnR and AC/DC cuz those were "gay songs". After choice words he eventually bailed. Alas, this review is not about one crusty local, the establishment is popular, gets very crowded, but the bartenders are very nice. It is def. an older crowd, surprisingly talented bands, and great people watching. Needs some upkeep- lots of potential as its spacious. A little too crowded on weekend for me. I'm not there every night, but I'll keep going. Just watch your back...
(2)Travis W.
I always had my doubts about Tumbleweeds but after my last visit I had a blast. A great place to come and hide from the tourists and locals on Main St. As mentioned this place hosts a variety of customers. From the cougars to the kids you get a nice melting pot of thirsty patrons. The drinks were a fairly decent price, cheaper than most on Main St. I came here for Melissa's B Day and we had a nice group and no problem finding a spot. But as the night went on and the band came out Tumbleweeds went off. I was really surprised how packed it was. And that band packed the dance floor. They even played the Peanuts Theme so I had to run out and bust out a little Peanuts dance number. Thanks Tequila...... Food here is hit or miss so just be choosy on what you get and I am going off the appetizers. Fried zucchini go ahead and pass up, mozzarella stick's, if you got a hankering go ahead their not bad. Fries are so so...they could of been cooked a little longer. But stand out is the wings (ask for them breaded and extra crispy) and the potato skins. They were really good or I was super drunk...CHEERS
(3)Izzy S.
THREE STARS FOR FOOD ONLY: They have some awesome "hot tenders" and an awesome bacon cheeseburger...but, the service isn't that good, it took a while to get a beer, then it took even longer to get a refill, then the pool table didn't work properly, then the people who go there must be regulars who think they own the place and don't appreciate you playing pool on "their table" (didn't know you can owl a pool table inside of a bar) but as someone who is not from this part of town I would come back again for the food only...just watch your back.
(3)Joyce F.
plenty of parking and busy with fun peeps. great music and tuesday was karaoke night. will be back.
(5)Maggie G.
There is no other place in Orange County where the patrons provide such entertainment. Every time I have been at Tumbleweeds, there is someone on the dance floor who is acting out their wildest 'Dancing with the Stars' fantasies. I'm amazed people haven't been hurt. Live bands, great music, no cover, cheap drinks. What's not to like?? And when some drunk drops their drink on the floor, don't expect anyone to clean it up. Someone will move a chair over the broken glass, and the party rocks on!
(4)George M.
If you're on your second divorce, over 40 and love blowing dust and cobwebs off vaginas then this is the place to go.
(3)Amy M.
Checked this place out since they had a live band playing. It's was good. Pretty damn packed, but were we still able to find a seat when we wanted one. Jello shots...yum! Cheap beers. Dudes rolling up on their skateboards (that I found hilarious...I don't know why). It was a very diverse crowd, but everyone seemed friendly and the atmosphere was good. I saw on a bunch of other's reviews about how nasty the bathrooms were so I was scared to go pee, but it wasn't any worse than any other bars restroom I've been too (and by that statement you may assume that I hang out at all the classy places ;) ) Maybe H.B. chicks have higher expectations than a Jersey girl who had to pee in the woods when the occassion called for it.
(4)Dee D.
Man this place is not for young people. I only went here bc a family member who is in her 20's likes this place. This place is a bar with bar atomosphere but they serve food. So when you sit at booths there's a waitress who will bring you drinks and take food orders. The people that go here are of the older crowd. not old by any means but 40's, 50's that like to get their drink on still. No problem with that at all. But it's country.. when I'm here I feel like I'm back in South Carolina, not Huntington Beach California. It's weird. The first time I came here about a year ago the service was alright. I only ate some fries and I thought the food was alright. The second time I came here... . HORRIBLE everything about this place. The waitress was PISSED. at the world maybe? She was just walking around mean muggin. It's like CHILL I know it probably sucks working with drunk people all the time but damn I asked a question you don't have to get a nasty attitude. All I ordered was fries. IDK what happened but everyone else got their gross food and my fries weren't brought to the table. On top of it, it probably took 30 minutes to get some greasy fries. Finally got my food. I'm checking out my friends' food. DISGUSTING. The food was definitely all frozen before and then probably thrown in a microwave or something. Fried zucchini and junk was like soggy wtf? I know i'm at a bar but damn you feed people this stuff? The drinks are reasonably priced. I suggest not eating here, just drinking here if you're forced to chill at this spot. A lot of people were really enjoying themselves but for certain people like my boyfriend and I who were only here for the birthday girl were not at all enjoying ourselves. This place is just weird.
(1)Bryan N.
Typical dive bar atmosphere. Gets 5 stars for people watching. No good beers so I ordered a Stella, served flat and semi cold out of the tap. Bartenders were nice, could use some matching shirts and lessons on making drinks. I Couldn't tell who worked there maybe some of them didn't. Apparently the owner came in hence an employee saying red alert, red alert hes here. Made it easier to grab a bottle of warm dos xx at the bar since it cleared when he arrived. Hmmm.. To the owner/s I would get a good manager, get your eguipment running at top speed and train your employee's well. Your loosing a lot of money. The place has some really good potential at being a great dive bar!
(2)Nicole G.
It's a cougar bar for sure...but.....I still like it. Great jams on the jukebox and good booze.
(4)Bryan P.
There is a wonderful comedy show happening at tumbleweeds tonight at 8pm! Come get some awesome food and strong drink and watch free comedy featuring some of LA and OC's up and coming comics! facebook.com/events/5970…
(5)Yolanda B.
If you want a dive bar/karaoke club kinda hang out, this is your place!
(3)Tracie D.
A friend and I were looking for a place to go and have a drink and we came across tumbleweeds so decided to stop in. It was pretty crowded and seem to have a good mix of people, the staff was friendly and the bartender was quick to serve us. The band was okay they played a good mix of music and we're fun to dance to.
(4)Zelda P.
This place is definitely for an older crowd (40-50s). The drinks are reasonably priced and the food is pretty good. The bands that play here are usually good.
(4)ReBecca B V.
Everybody is FADED here to the MAX!! Good thing there is a huge line of Taxis waiting outside for people to use. Bathrooms are horrible: dirty, need toilet paper, and one is always out of order. Food is mediocre. I go because it is close to where I live and avoid Beach Blvd for fear of Checkpoints. But the Bands are Good!
(3)Lola J.
Sketchy little dive bar a couple blocks from the beach. The food isn't great, just average. This place is more for the experience. Not as much of a creepshow as Blackie's, but it's still up there (this is a compliment, btw). Good grungy place w/ a stage & small dance floor, pool tables, & good prices. I hope you like Irish-sailor-metal music.
(3)Lindsay M.
We have been meaning to check this place out, as we live across the street. For some reason we were "scared" off a little-not sure why. We happened to be walking by one Sat morning and saw they serve breakfast so decided to hit it up. The food is your basic hangover menu and although nothing special, it was tasty and inexpensive. They had $3 STRONG bloody marys too! Our server was very attentive and friendly. Although I haven't been in the evening, it doesn't look as scary as it seems on the inside, lots of space/seating and the bar offerings look decent and I am guessing they aren't as expensive/crowded as the Main St deal, so we will definitely be heading back next time we want to grab a quick drink.
(4)Michelle G.
Great atmosphere, good drinks.. Bartender (Erin i think she said) was terrific!! A lot to be said about the owner though....Very unfriendly, and from the interactions I see he had with his staff... Either nonexistent or very unprofessional.. Unfortunate... Could be a great place!!
(3)Charlotte M.
Probably the coolest bar in HB. They have dancing, good bands (usually) and draw a big crowd of white trash on the weekends. Actually all different walks of life come to this bar. I'm not sure how else to describe the crowd. However most of them are in their 40s or 50s. Play good stuff like Classic Rock. Expensive drinks though. Cheapest drink is $4. For a dollar more you can get something better on draft. They also have pool and stuff if you're into that.
(4)Jackie D.
The price is right for mimosas, bloody marys, & screw drivers, $3. Well at least that's what it costed when we were there last Sat morning. The breakfast was pretty mediocre, I had the special, Country Fried Steak, honestly it was bland. The steak tasted like nothing, as well as the gravy. The potatoes were nothing to write home about. My hubby had the Eggs Benie, which looked good, but he said was bland. Overall it's about the drink specials and that's it. Looking for a good breakfast, go to Mutt Lynches.
(3)Processed T.
Wednesday Nights! The Blues music comes out! Beer is cheap, the chicken nachos are pretty damn good too! This place has a fun kick back atmosphere! I think the bartenders are cool too!
(5)Mike F.
Tumbleweeds... What can I say? Go there, get drunk, pick up a cougar, forget her name the next day, live with the STD forever... In all seriousness, "The Weed" isn't as bad as it can sound. The frequency of good live bands on weekends pulled another star out of me for this review. Other than that? It's a once in a while place. The staff is kinda hit or miss. Frank isn't so bad... everybody thinks he's a jerk, but he's usually pretty nice to me. The waitresses are usually pretty nice. Give them a decent tip and be nice to them (Prove you're not the average trash that place can attract) and they'll be nice all night. It gets busy on the weekends. There will be people dancing, playing pool, and socializing all over. Just beware of the old chicks. They think they're cougars, but isn't a cougar supposed to have something enticing for the younger guys? Money, good looks, great body, etc??? You won't find that with these old single broads. But if you drink enough to lose your inhibitions, you will most likely find whatever you're looking for... The bar itself: The decoration, the pool tables, the furniture, EVERYTHING, is tired. It really needs a make over. One major thing that I do like about "Tumbes" or "Stumbles" is Thanksgiving. Frank - the man everybody says has no heart - puts on a free buffet for anybody and everybody. It's pretty damn good. If you are still trying to figure out what you're going to do for thanksgiving, round up a few friends and go check it out. Try it, have fun, but consider yourself warned! Haha
(3)Jessica J.
Where the hell to begin. I'll say this... I can't remember because I left schmammered. Most nights anyway. Bathrooms are gross, drinks are weak so order shots and beer. Food is good. Friday and Saturday nights are a shit show and packed. Obviously we all know the ages range from 21 to possibly dead. Awesome for skank watching of all ages. Tits everywhere. Even if you don't want to see them. Because they're wrinkly. And old. And flabby. And usually have a drink spilled down them. Get in early for happy hour, grab a table- not a pool table BTW. The Dudical Pool Table Club will show up and just crowd you until you leave. Fucking assholes. Even if your quarters are down and you're a local- the DPTC is better than you are and apparently own all rights to the pool tables you're playing on. I hate you DPTC. Anyways, grab a normal table and lots-o-beer and shots. Settle in, it's gonna be a long one.
(3)Crystal S.
Decent little dive bar, pricey, but decent. 7 bucks for a cheap glass of wine?! Boy.. your karaoke selection better be good,...shit it is! I quickly forgot about the price of the wine and started making a fool of myself with some Amy Winehouse. There were only a few people in there so it wasn't like we were putting on a show, Erik even got up there and rocked out with me. Kinda dingy, as a good dive bar should be. Pool tables, dance floor, pretty big bar, very, VERY diverse crowd. I think the beer is pretty cheap but I'm not positive. With nothing else to do on a Monday night I am sure I will be back to Tumbleweeds for weekly karaoke, even if Erik gets hit on by cougars all night....Can't say I blame them, grrr.
(3)TJ R.
So much ghetto fun all in one place!
(5)Albert W.
Two words: cougar bar. Seeking to avoid the lines and get a drink somewhere close, our hero's friend recommended that they go somewhere with a more "mature" crowd. "Like mature in their 30's?" asked our hero. "No... more like 40's perhaps." From the motorcycles parked outside and the rowdy crowd of blue collar yokels shouting, it appeared to be a white trash bar located in a god forsaken strip mall. Inside, a fairly decently cover band was playing songs that were chart toppers ten or twenty years ago. The women's bathroom was flooded and it needed to be cleaned up, which forced the ladies to queue up for the men's room instead. Security was extremely anal as well, not letting men and women into the one washroom at the same time, citing that they could be closed down for code violations. One drink here was all our hero could stand. PROS: - Lots of parking in the main strip mall lot. - Decent cover band that plays okay music. - No lines on the weekend. - No cover. CONS: - Fairly aged crowd. Average age in the bar must have been around 35 or higher (on a conservative estimate). - Somewhat trashy.
(2)Diana G.
Me and a few of my friends (all in our 20's) came here to get a few drinks. We had bad luck with a few other bars in the area (cough cough The Pen cough cough). Right off the bat we knew that this wasn't our crowd but we stayed anyway. It's honestly a LOT of 40+ cougars trying to act/dress like they're 25 to get men. Desperate and pathetic. But that was the least of our problems. I asked the bartender for a mojito. She said they didn't have mint, so she couldn't make one. She said "We aren't fancy." I wasn't upset about it, it was a long shot considering how much of a dive this place is. What got me was when my friend asked for a blended margarita. Turns out they don't even have a blender, so on the rocks was her only option. Seriously, what kind of bar doesn't even have a blender? Not sure how this place is in business...
(2)Audra R.
Super fun dive bar, live band plays all the dive bar 80's favs on the weekends. Spacious with lots of seating, but super popular. Drinks super cheap, efficient cocktail waitresses and bar. Complete mix of people- young, old, cougar, moms, dads, hipster, HB punk rock, you name it! Not bad... Parking lot is a cluster right now tho!
(4)Joe K.
Great place to go on the weekends, listen to music, drink a lot of beer and people watch. The people are attractive (the women love to dance here) and very cool. Multiple pool tables!
(4)Steve R.
For a dive bar, this is a fun place to pound a few and grab a bite... has a few pool tables, and nice bartenders and waitresses. Food is ok Id recommend the wraps or mini sliders which are reasonable Crowd varies from typical OC crowd, bikers and cougars out on the prowl...
(3)Barbara B.
My first time here and I enjoyed it. Such a friendly staff, fun atmosphere, the crowd was awesome, the drinks were reasonably priced and their chicken nachos...was pretty yummy. I would definitely go here again
(4)Shelby A.
This bar is pretty dive-y. its a good time though. They have a few pool tables on each side. They do live music some weekends, and they do a little new Years celebration; 5 course meal, live band. The food is decent, its not the best but it its pretty good for bar food, oh and its pretty cheap here too. Also, its wlaking distance to the Main St. bars.
(4)K G.
Total dive with nasty bathrooms, but still fun. The burger is pretty tasty. we also sucked down some chili cheese fries later that were damn good. But maybe that was food goggles after the 15 beers. Band was good.
(3)Beth H.
Amazingly, I'm one of the few people that had apparently never heard of this bar. I guess I don't get out enough. I'd heard this was the MAJOR Cougar hang out. In the hour and a half I spent there, there were no Cat sitings that I could recognize. Maybe it was too early and they were still home sharpening their claws..... Anywhoo..... I liked the charm and vibe of the place. They had an OK beer selection (nothing special) and the chicken nachos were decent. The band was setting up as I was getting to leave, so I didn't get to experience this side of Tumbleweeds. Our waitress was really nice, personable, witty and had a great sense of humor. That goes a long way in my book. I'd like to come here a few more times but my overall impression was good. Not a dive bar but not a classy one either. Just a down home, hang out, have a good time place. I can handle that.
(3)Tim T.
I'm a big dive bar fan and Tumbleweeds fits the bill! Cold beer and a very mixed crowd. Music on the weekends is a blend of the 70's, 80's & 90s. Dance floor always full. Fun place in HB.
(3)Corrie C.
Five stars for Tumbleweeds! Good atmosphere, good drinks, good prices, good live music. Always enjoy myself when I come here. Tumbleweeds definitely has a western feel to it (hence the name), especially with it's full wooden interior. Hopefully this will balance out the review of the guy who gives one star reviews to good bars that just aren't "wheelchair accessible." Sorry. There are no stairs here and the doors are pretty wide. The bathrooms also have handicapped stalls. Came here with a friend in a wheelchair and she liked it just fine.

AWESOME service! the cocktail waitresses are amazing, the bartenders are friendly the music is great....but the bathrooms are horrible and it just seems dirty and unsanitary. take the time to fix the obvious problems and im sure business will be booming

Three stars feels incredibly generous for what is unquestionably a dive. The drinks are stiff, the crowd is over-the-hill, the bathrooms are dirty, and the music is bad (but plays all your favorites, and odds are by the end of the night you'll be belting out Sweet Caroline with the best of 'em). Pool costs 75 cents a game, and with three tables it is clear that billiards are a hot ticket item here. It's a good time, a place to relax and hang out that feels miles away from the fratty feel of Main Street. I wish there was more to report, but what more can really be said? You've been to a place like this before, and you know the type. If you are more than 5 minutes away, don't bother making the drive. But if you are within walking distance and looking for a friendly everyone-knows-your-name place to drown your sorrows or scope out some serious Mom jeans, Tumbleweeds is a solid option. Just be warned, there's a reason they call it "Stumbleweeds"...

Definitely one of the better dive bars I've been in in a while. A strong 4 stars. I went to see the band Thank U Drive Thru and was happy I had consulted Yelp before I went so I was not taken off guard. Total cougar hot spot, lots of large, fake chests, older crowd (upper 30s on up). Everyone drinking. Lots. I guess this the big night out for many and leave the kids home with the baby sitter. The best of the night (and I REALLY wish I had my camera for this one so I could post it for y'all) is that my friend and I look over and on the wooden floor there looked like to be a dead snake. Upon further investigation, some one had lost some of their extensions and there they were curled up on the floor!! Looks like a biker bar upon first entrance but everyone was really friendly (in some ways, a little too friendly) and it was phenomenal people watching. Cocktail waitresses, 3 pool tables, extensive bar, plenty of seating but get there early since it fills up and everyone stakes their claim on seating and tables. We did not try the food but mamny people earlier in the evening had apps in front of them.

This place is a joke! The food is horrible and the drinks are overpriced! Not to mention, they promote drunk driving!! If you leave your car there overnight, THEY TOW IT!!!! The owner, Frank is in cahoots with the tow truck companies to make extra money on people who decide to leave their car there overnight and take a cab!!! THERE ARE NO SIGNS SAYING YOU CAN't PARK OVERNIGHT ANYWHERE!!!! Not to mention also, it's a cougar pickup joint: Foxfire West, Grab a Granny, or the Wrinkle Ranch, call it what you will.

My only friend with real children lives near here and occasionally gets a hall pass from his wife when he is thirsty. This is your average dive bar in a strip mall in Huntington Beach. Here are the highlights that distinguish Tumbleweeds: -It has a cool name. What did you do this weekend? I went to Tumbleweeds. -Live music 7 NIGHTS A WEEK. Very impressive to have this every night of the week. -Gets a good crowd but there is plenty of space. There is a second, quieter room behind the bar that still catches some of the musical entertainment so it feels like a party still but it's easier to carry a conversation. I wouldn't go here to meet girls or anything, and I have no desire to try the food, but it's a bar that gets the job done when you're thirsty. As you approach the bar from the outside on a cold night it can be quite welcoming as your hear the music resonating to the exteriorf and are subsequently welcomed into a warm and jovial environment.

This night we were partied off main street at some dive bar called Tumbleweeds. There was a live band with a filipino guy singing covers from Franz, to Journey. Plenty of white girls doing their thing on the dance floor, and all the white guys drinking it up at the bar, and thankfully i know how to totally fit in. Just yell out "shots!" when you get there, and everyone like you. The night was fun, but the drive back up to SM was a long one.

I didn't know this was a "cougar" hot spot, but it's definitely for the older crowd...eh, if you're a young woman and don't like getting hit on by older guys, bring a boyfriend with you. Total dive bar; I'm not into dive bars, but this one was pretty fun and upbeat...but yeah, it's pretty trashy-looking. Not to mention its location is pretty trashy but I don't have a high opinion of Huntington Beach, anyway. Drinks are good, music's all right if you're into 80s music. Everyone is really friendly and I gotta love the cocktail waitresses. Bartenders are very personable to regulars.

We stopped by Tumbleweeds to check out the scene. The dance floor was packed, full of energy with a live band playing a wide range of covers. Drinks were cheap, and the service was very responsive. There was a wide age range, from college kids to older folks. Decor was dive-y, and the furniture was very well-worn. There's a lot of construction going on in the strip mall complex, so getting into the parking lot is a bit weird. A good time!

I came to this seedy little spot with a group of friends the other night. I was surprised to find it so spacious inside, with tons of bar room, ample amounts of tables/chairs and an adjoining room replete with pool tables and a karaoke machine. We easily grabbed a table and got drinks just as quickly. There's an eclectic mix of people here - HB bros, indie hipsters, drunk sluts, hardened boozehounds - that makes for a great night of people watching, if nothing else. And they've got Newcastle on tap! We only stayed for a few drinks, but I got the feeling that this was a bar you can have a good night at, one that isn't crawling with Ed Hardy cretins looking to get down with anything that has a vagina and looks under 25. Maybe the weekends are different, since this was on a Monday night, but I'd be willing to return for a drink next time I'm in the area. For a dive bar sandwiched into a rundown strip mall in Huntington Beach, I expected much, much worse. Expectations were exceeded.

One of the better dive bars in HB. As someone else said, it doesn't really have that douche bag hipster vibe. They usually have live music on the weekends. Drinks aren't too overpriced. Watch out for cops; ride your bike if possible.
(4)Mick H.
This is one of the best dive bars in HB. Tumbleweeds has everything I want in a bar: great selection of beer, pool tables and live music most nights. The food is great too.
(5)Jenn L.
Definite people-watching joint... Music is decent- crowd is seriously mixed..

I found myself stumbling home from "Stumble"weeds last night and I have to tell ya - they know how a real dive bar should run. There's deelish finger food - hot wings - sliders - fries - and a full bar. I was a snot and ordered a dirty martini, no surprised looks, just served me the coldest. dirtiest martini with - count em - two olives! Everyone was dancing to the music of the cover band playing - not a bad impression of Amy Winehouse. Usually cougars flock to this bar, so young men beware! The pool sharks come out late and shoot around, watching all the drunks make their way through the night. Good old kick back bar with attitude. Could be a borderline wannabe biker bar.

well i was told by a friend that this place is a good place for breakfast. what! breakfast at a bar?? yep. the menu is average but the food is quite tasty and inexpensive. my waitress donna was also very fast pleasant and accomodating. this is also a locals secret place i am told. so when you are thinking of going to ihop or dennys for breakfast and places are packed remember this locals secret spot for breakfast you will be pleasantly surprised.

I guess I reviewed this place back sometime in 2010. Well, here's an update. Honestly, this is the only bar I really go to, anymore. I hate Cerritos (where I live) clientele and just about any city around it. Huntington Beach seems to have become more and more "white trash" and the whole skinhead thing seems to be a bit more prevalent, but not here at least. Unfortunately, they'll probably jacking around with the 405/605 connector until 2014, as I just found out. Maybe it's time to move, considering Cerritos as a place to hang out, blows. It's not totally Cerritos' fault, but it's what's around it. This bar use to be somewhat popular until construction set in and, well, so did "Walmart Neighborhood Market". I still have a bit of a problem with the words "Neighborhood Market" next to anything associated with Walmart, but that's a different story. The reviews are accurate. The bathroom stinks like $hit (I've seen MUCH worse) but the service is friendly. THAT is the only reason I go here, and karaoke (Sun-Tues), of course! Unfortunately for me, the bathroom isn't ADA compliant, BUT I can make it work. It's a PITA, though. There are no bars along the wall to hold onto and you cannot fully fit a wheelchair into the stall. You have to leave it outside the stall. Again, it "works" for me, but the same may not be true for you. If you do eat here, try the California Wrap. It's become my favorite. I may blow more gas money and see if I can find another place in Southern OC with karaoke. The only place I know of, is Patsy's in Mission Viejo and Laguna Hils. With both location, forget the bathroom for me. Sucks how my nightlife is more or less dictated by ADA compliance. Seems like most places are the same, they're all old, therefore don't HAVE TO comply with ADA standards. IF you know of a good location, hook me up. I give this place 5 stars for the staff, food and the karaoke. Plus, if you're only going to a bar to pick up a chick and forgot to stuff your wallet with a cover for your jimmy, there's that new "Walmart Neigherhood Market" nextdoor.

Tumbleweeds is a dive bar. But in a good way. The menu covers a lot of tastes......the drinks are strong and reasonably priced and the crowd is generally happy. It's location at Beach / Atlanta is suspect....half mile to the beach but kinda slummy....should be improving this year as renovations have started around it. Older crowd...40's up. I don't go there much....but the 3-4 times I've been there it's been fun.
(3)Frank M.
Not the nicest place,but what do you expect it's a bar, if you want fancy go to the Hyatt or Hilton. Any who, I've been here several times with a friend of mine, and everything time I've had a blast. Karaoke on Tuesdays is pretty awesome. Average prices for drinks and the food is good itself. I will definitely continue coming here when I'm in the area.
(4)M. W.
Dave R. was exactly right. Older female bartender was unfriendly and uninterested. Acted like she didn't want to be there. Bathroom was disgusting with major plumbing problems. It was early and the place wasn't busy, so no excuse for such a mess. Can't get much worse than this bar.

Ah good ole Tumbleweeds located in the most run down strip mall in H.B. now that's saying something right or am I just being redundant ! My nickname for this place is stumble-weeds because once you enter you stumble on the way out, they pour a great drink at a great price and have live music some good, some terrible and a different mix of people which is a good thing. As shit holes go, this is one of my favorite shit holes. What makes it great is to sit back and watch the alcohol take over crazies. If you're looking for a place with decor this ain't your place. If you're looking to eat here, eat before you come but its the best people watching place in OC. You will laugh your ass off. You will see hair styles that you thought would never come back and they never left these people. This is a truly a hidden gem, the mecca of dive bars. I'm giving it four stars because of the food.
(4)Chris G.
You have to know what to expect when you go to this place. As others have mentioned it is definitely a cougar bar. The crowd is older, but the booze is cheap and it is not pretentious like so many places on Main Street. This is one of the best dive bars in Huntington, and my roommate said the food was good although I wasn't brave enough to try it. The live music every night is great too.

gina and michael are the nicest of bartenders.

The first time i went to Tumbleweeds I was totally afraid, being located between a Big Lots and a Rite Aid doesn't exactly scream CLASSY. When we walked in i noticed that there were a lot of cougars on the prowl. I have to say the band started playing, and they were amazing. Playing everything from Michael Jackson to Lynard Skynard. I instantly became a fan. This is a classic example of not judging a book by its cover. I have since returned to Tumbleweeds many times. It is a great change from Main St. Plus it is literally the BEST people watching spot in town. I could sit and watch the people all night. The bands are normally pretty good. They drinks are inexpensive and poured pretty generously. I really have no complaints EXCEPT sometimes they have bands that aren't very good and it kinda puts a damper on the experience. I think they should have that one cover band there every weekend. And the crowd is a little older. No complaints here! I don't mind, but if your looking to come pick up young guys or girls, this place is not for you. It is just a great place to come hang out with your friends and get a little toasty.

Good beer selection on tap, pool tables, live music, just enough dive bar feeling to make you happy (if that's your thing), friendly waitresses and an ecclectic crowd of people... All of this makes for a fun Friday night. If you live in HB you've probably heard of this place, but shyed away from it....Wel shy no longer, it's worth a visit or two.
(4)Tinker T.
If you're looking for cougars and/or sabertooth tigers this is your place, crowd is pretty mature, if you're young and see an older lady no problems getting her number.

i hate this place and i dont want to go anymore.
