Birria tacos and a flight

RV tip: the beer garden is shaded by big trees, so it’s a good pick for a warm afternoon. Bring the tow vehicle and a designated driver.

Why go

A brewery with a pool and a sense of humor

Villains opened in June 2023 in the former Modern Times space on South Anaheim Boulevard, from the owners behind Craft by Smoke & Fire. The grounds include a beer garden, a pool and murals of famous bad guys.

It has 4.6 stars from more than 5,700 Yelp reviews and 4.0 on Google. Diners like the beer, the space and the sliders; some reviews call the portions small for the price.

For RVers it’s about 4 minutes from Anaheim Harbor RV Park, and a short walk from the Anaheim Packing House.

For RVers

Taking the rig to Villains Brewing Company

The practical stuff we wished someone had told us before we pulled in.

Park once, walk around

OpenTable lists public parking, and some reviewers find the signs confusing. Spaces are car-sized, so leave the rig at the park and walk to the Packing House after.

Bring the dog

OpenTable lists Villains as dog-friendly, and the beer garden is shaded. Keep the pup on a leash and away from the pool.

Order kids a meal

The kids menu has tenders, a cheeseburger, mac and cheese and quesadillas for $9 to $10.

Plan a designated driver

It’s a brewery first. Pick a driver or take a rideshare back to the park.
