Disney knows how to run a park. We had a great morning here and then went to Disneyland. We wish we had more time. For some advice, read my review of Disneyland. Enjoy!!!
2. Medieval Times Buena Park
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 925 reviews
Travel to the 11th Century at Medieval Times Dinner and Tournament. In SoCal, home to so many theme park and family entertainment destinations, one stands alone for its unique and grand scale entertainment. Where else can you enter a European style castle and be immediately transported to the 11th century? Where else can you dine on a feast fit for a King while cheering your favorite knight to victory as he skillfully jousts and swordfights his mighty opponent while atop a magnificent Andalusian stallion. This extraordinary destination is Medieval Times Dinner and Tournament in Buena Park. It’s been entertaining guests since 1986. And if you haven’t yet experienced it, now is the time.

Our group of 6 adults really enjoyed this show and dinner. The food was brought out hot and tasty which is amazing considering how many people they have to prepare for and doing it up to 3 shows per day. Serving staff was attentive, friendly and efficient. There are many ways to spend your money on the numerous souvenirs and drinks! Very pricey but it is your decision as to spend or not. The highlight was catching a flower for my wife! Never expected to do that. The horses are amazing and the show is pretty well done.

Nice little garden nestled on the north side of CSUF. It has a lot of different plants and trees including tropical varieties so sometimes it feels like you're in a different place when walking around.
Went there when the corpse plant they had was blooming. (Blooms every 10 years and smells like rotting flesh) I was just curious what it would smell like haha but glad I went cause I got to check out the rest of the place.
4. The Bruery
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 63 reviews
Here at The Bruery, our calling is to create beers with character and depth using the simplest and purest of means. We do not filter or pasteurize our beers. The majority of our bottled beers gain carbonation through 100% bottle conditioning, allowing carbonation to naturally occur through a secondary bottle fermentation. We strive to use unconventional ingredients, and we will proudly state what we put in our beers. We are inspired by those in the brewing community who are pushing the limits of what 'beer' is. We wouldn't be here if it weren't for great brewers who came before us. We aspire to be an influential force in craft brewing.

The brewery is located in an industrial area with plenty of parking. The taproom is walled off from the warehouse where all the brewing happens and feels cold, sterile, and uninviting. The tap list is large and overwhelming, not necessarily a bad thing. There is a stack of flight papers for you to fill out on your own far away from the actual bar, making the whole experience seem impersonal, but I understand that this is done for speed. None of the staff was especially chatty or friendly and seemed more like bartenders than brew aficionados. I also find it off putting that they list members only beers on the regular tap list, I guess to tease you and show you what you are missing?
Honestly, the best thing about my experience was the food truck outside. Yes, the beers were good, but you might be better off buying some bottles to drink at home and promptly exiting.

Travel to the Louisiana Bayou without ever leaving California, and solve the mystery of the restless alumni before your hour is up! Red Lantern is the largest escape room in Orange County.
Reviewed By SteveDeleo - Brea, California
It was decorated beautifully and excellent craftsmanship. The story line/theme was good but should have made it more interesting and allowed for more interaction through props. It was a perfect fit for 10 girls to each have a chance to get involved. Awesome backdrops, decor and sound effects. We almost escaped by 20 seconds!

Expectations were high for the entire family and Disneyland did not disappoint.
We’d been to Disneyworld in FL but never Disneyland. We really liked the smaller size of Disneyland. The weather was perfect during the day but got chilly at night. Not sure what we were thinking but we didn’t bring enough layers so most of us were pretty cold by the end of the day.

Once a working berry farm, this popular theme park is now home to GhostRider, the world's best wooden roller coaster; Supreme Scream, a ride where participants are hoisted up 30-stories and dropped down in three seconds; the Xcelerator, rated the world's best launch coaster and Camp Snoopy, home to the beloved Peanuts gang.

Our family was here visiting from Indiana this past Friday. We arrived at Knott's around 9:30, time to park and get in there by the 10am opening time. We were in for a rude awakening. The lines were EXTRAORDINARILY long, perhaps because off their Boysenberry festival? Anyway, they make you go through these very small security modules (obviously, security is to be expected) but after you complete that, you are let out into a very disorganized open "area" with no signs, ropes or visible directions. You have to "stumble" into the right line to gain park access. Crazy disorganized. Knott's has also put up white vinyl fencing around this "area" so that you have to stay in that corral type section and you cannot physically push or move the fencing in any manner because they are ZIP TIED together. What? Fire hazard anyone? At first glance, the patrons were a bit rough around the edges for me. Everyone that cannot afford Disneyland clearly comes to Knott's. At least today they did. The thing that REALLY sealed the deal for me and my entire family was my encounter with a man outside the exit/information area named 'Robert'. I (and my two young boys) was trying to find my cousins (two adults and three small children) ASAP. She had texted me panicking after being told that paying an additional $75/PER PERSON for Fast Pass wrist bands was the only way to really access the rides at all. We decided by phone to meet right at the exit and find a manager to speak with. Robert was an angry little man that preceded to STOP me and tell me I couldn't converse with my cousin through the gated area and I would have to go all the way around and wait in line to get in "like everyone" else. I was not attempting to go into the park in any way. I was trying to talk to my cousin who was pushing through a sea of people and visibly crying at this point. I remained calm and asked him very nicely to please radio either security or a manger to help us. We just wanted our money back so we could leave. Robert wouldn't help us at all. In fact, he COMPLETELY IGNORED ME & MY REQUESTS. He physically turned his BACK to us and wouldn't even look at us. Mind you, this was without actually knowing what we needed. Can you IMAGINE if that had been a real emergency? I was so appalled, I stared yelling at the top of my lungs to anyone who could hear me to please GET SECURITY OR A MANAGER RIGHT AWAY. Yes, Robert was still not looking at us or acknowledging us in any manner. It was disgusting, unethical behavior. Finally, a nice manager (Andrew) came running over to us. He apologized immediately and asked how he could help. I think I was still in shock from Robert's behavior. My cousin explained to Andrew that they had been sent to SEVEN different lines and spent hundreds of dollars and that we all just wanted our money back; the park was clearly a hot, over crowded mess and it wasn't physically safe to stay there. He complied immediately and took my ticket print outs and my other cousin (husband) inside to information and refunded all of our money in a polite and expedient manner. As I was leaving, I took a few photos and sent them to the Buena Park fire department. Hopefully they will get the message with a large monetary fine. I've also written a long, stern letter to guest relations, which I'm sure will go unanswered (honestly).
PLEASE SAVE YOUR MONEY AND GO ANYWHERE BUT KNOTT'S. This used to be a wonderful, quaint, calm amusement park. It may still be possible to enjoy in the very off season like January (?) My inherent fear is that if the employees ignore the guests, what would they do in a REAL emergency? Are the being safe? Are the rides being maintained and safe?? Do they care at all about their patrons safety and well being or is it all about cramming people in the park like sardines for that cash money flow?
8. Laguna Lake Park

4.5 based on 40 reviews
Reviewed By India C - Orange County, California
Started hiking by the Equestrian Center and was inundated with historic trees, mountain bikers and water-conscious landscaped areas. Spectacular Jacaranda trees,100+year old Eucalyptus and waterfowl made my ambulatory footslog pleasant on a dirt trail.
Fishing is allowed at lake here with a permit. Restrooms have no working electricity---how efficient---and are original architecture from its 1963 opening. Recent area renovation added large boulders, wood bridges, flowing water features and photo worthy hillside landscaping.
Locals, city neighbors and visitors enjoy Laguna Lake. Sunset at the lake is romantic largely attributed to melodic flowing water sounds, little warblers chirping and songbirds singing. This is fine for a leisurely stroll or a several mile endeavor can be had at the Juanita Cooke Trail.

The show was filled with action adventure and loud noises and flashy lights. The food is hotel food. The shrimp skewer was good and the tres leches cake was yummy. We brought our 4-year-old and he had a good time. It was expensive but we were gifted a Groupon. We bought two drinks and was shocked at the $38 total, but you get to keep the souvenir glasses. Overall a fun time watching the adventure, but very pricey for okay food.
