House of Blues   

You know what you're getting when you go for a drink at the House of Blues. Being a chain, every location across America looks virtually the same and Anaheim's House is no different. Accented with rustic folk art, weathered fixtures and a subtle sense of southern hominess, this venue is known as one of the most elegant bars in Orange County, despite its grungy rock 'n' roll undertones. But with elegance comes expense: stick with the beer and you might get out of the place with money left over for the mandatory parking fee. Otherwise, prepare to pay a heady sum for a couple rounds of mixed cocktails. The final tab is justifiable, though. Anaheim's House of Blues is not a local bar full of regulars. Located in Disneyland's Downtown Disney district, this spot mostly attracts vacationing tourists who anticipate a slightly higher drink tab.
