The Public House

Launched by Evans Brewing Co., the oldest brewery in Orange County, this compact storefront is where food, booze, and live music intersect in old Fullerton. Don’t-miss dishes include a fabulous hoecake drizzled with butter, and a brewworthy burger. Cocktails can disappoint, so stick with the tap selections.
