A Dream Poured into Every Glass 🍶
Rocks & Drams started with a simple idea: to create a space that feels like home while offering top-notch drinks and food. We love the energy of Downtown Ventura and wanted to bring something unique—a neighborhood bar where locals and visitors can relax, enjoy, and connect. With a passion for craft beverages and bold flavors, we built a menu that reflects both creativity and comfort.
A Message from R&D : Our Philosophy
Like John McClane, Rocks and Drams is tough to kill. We persevered to serve our customers despite pushbacks from Ventura County/City, construction delays, and COVID-19. After 6 years later we are still standing, our dream of crafting quality cocktails our way still lives. To our loyal supporters, THANK YOU! To first-time visitors, welcome. Enjoy the menu, and as John McClane said:
"Come out to the coast, we'll get together, have a few laughs."
Kitchen & Bar
At Rocks & Drams, our kitchen now stands alongside our cocktail program. Our menu features elevated starters & chef-driven entrées from chorizo fundido and sesame-crusted ahi to fire-grilled steaks, roasted chicken, & house pastas. Every plate is crafted with bold flavor, refined technique, & beautiful presentation, designed to pair seamlessly with our handcrafted cocktails & curated spirits. Whether you’re here to share, sip, or settle in for dinner, expect an experience worth coming back for.
Drinks That Tell a Story 🍹
Our bartenders are artists, mixing up craft cocktails that are as fun as they are flavorful. We offer a wide range of drinks, from classic favorites to unique house creations. Not a cocktail person? No problem. We’ve got a great selection of beer and wine to suit every taste.
