Finney's Crafthouse - Laguna Beach

I really like this place. We have been back a few times. Food and drinks are really good and great splittable portions too! The staff is real nice! The only thing I have a hard time with is the volume inside sometimes...it is very popular and busy....so when it's loud it's loud HAHA

Excellent Service, especially when seated at the Bar for Dining, for Drinks or both. The Bartenders are excellent and friendly. My personal favorites are Stephanie, Tyler and Kelsey. Locals love this place and it is known as a community favorite. It's gained a great reputation because of the Bartenders and Servers. The food is excellent! The Classic Finney's Burger is mouthwatering delish! The Chef Salad is scrumptious.The environment is great, open and airy. A great place to watch a game. Thank you Finneys at The White House, you make us proud.

So this is a go to for us every week. The value is great and food is great However, this past Thursday, it was all down hill. The steak sandwich had so much horseradish you couldn't eat it. The waiter forgot half the order so it came 30 minutes late. We couldn't find any staff for help and no manager. The waiter was gone half the time. We had to get up to get boxes and get more food. The staff was bad and never helpful. You can tellMgmt is not on top of this crew. Service was the worst it's ever been.Nobody cared about service at all. I hope they don't screw up & ruin a good thing. Just a month ago the staff was attentive and service was good. They need to fix the crew before it gets worse. Even the bartender ignored us multiple times and seemed mad when I asked for boxes. This is not a happy team.

Great place in Laguna Beach to catch a lunch. Cool atmosphere . We sat at the bar as we usually do at pub style restaurants and had fast and friendly service. Big menu with many choices. Their Reuben sandwich is delicious . My husband had the wings and loved them. We'll be back.

Our server Jordan was incredibly helpful and I'll start by saying the service was flat out great. I'm a big fan of the Finney's chain and will always go to a location for dinner if I have the chance. The food here is consistent. It's extremely good and always comes out hot and ready to eat. The vibe at this location is awesome they did a great job of laying this spot out. One of my favorite items on the menu is 100% the A5 burger but if you like pizza, theirs is great as well! Finney's is also reasonably priced compared to similar restaurants, which I hope they never stray from. Cheers!

Great find in Laguna during a busy weekend day trip! We just happened upon this location while searching for somewhere to grab a bite. It's centrally located in the heart of Laguna, near tons of shops and of course, near the beach. They don't take reservations, which worked well for us since we couldn't find reservations last minute. We were seated in a booth within 5 minutes of arriving at the hostess stand. Super impressed with the open and airy feel, cleanliness, service and quality of food. Relaxed atmosphere that is great for families, gal pal meet ups and casual dates. Lots of TVs with different sports games and a multitude of local beers on tap. We had the famous chicken sandwich, mahi-mahi tacos and Cobb salad....all were fantastic. Will definitely come here again when in Laguna and looking forward to trying their location in Oceanside.

Amazing. What didn't go well at Finney's? The service, host, ambiance, and management were super friendly. We stopped in to pick up food for my nephews 16th birthday. The adults came in for a drink while the party stayed behind at the Airbnb. While waiting for our food to take back, we had beers, fried pickles and truffle fries. I love fried pickles and had to try theirs. Finneys did not disappoint. Aside from our appetizers, I picked up a burger to go. Smashed to perfection as well. Finneys was such a nice vibe to come in, have a beer, and grab some food. Thank you for being open and accommodating to our large orders!

Great food! Everyone loved their meal. Their Philly cheesesteak eggrolls are so delicious you can't stop eating them. We also ordered their delicious crispy, flavorful Brussel sprouts. Loved them. Our meals were all fabulous, I had a juicy Bison Burger with a fig jam that was awesome, the other orders consisted of a triple smash burger, steak sandwich and sliders. Everything was so yummy, fries were excellent. Service was great and a nice location in Laguna Beach. They did a great job. Casual and a great selection of beers.

My wife and I came here one evening for a casual dinner. We ordered a Bison burger and fries. The burger was very good: you don't usually see a bison burger on a menu so it was nice to be able to order one. (Although the burger was a little on the "neat" side --- I tend to like messy burgers.) The restaurant had a nice, buzzy feel to it: lots of diners so the atmosphere was good. The reason for the 3 star review was the service. We were seated after awhile, then it was very difficult to get the waiter to our table. We ordered quickly when he finally did. The burger came out after some time. When we wanted to pay we were told to use the machine at the table. I felt it was a little cold and impersonal.

Cool spot to come and watch sports in Laguna Beach! Our server was great. We got the fried cauliflower, wings & coconut shrimp. The coconut shrimp was crispy perfection & I really wanted to love the sauce but there was something that wasn't quite right about it. The cauliflower was pretty good - I liked the buffalo yuzu sauce on it! The wings were interesting. The breading was more airy than expected. The sauce on it was good though. It's cool that you can pay at your table so you don't have to wait for the server. I'd come back if I was in the area!
