\"Best<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Maybe it\u2019s the nostalgic smell of a freshly lit cigar. The echo of laughter from a few tables over, where a group of buddies are reliving every birdie and blow-up hole. Maybe it’s that first sip of a cold beer that almost makes you forget that triple on 7. Or the simple joy of heckling your friends as they limp up 18.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whatever the reason, every golfer knows the magic of the 19th hole, even if you\u2019re the one picking up the tab.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So if you\u2019re on the hunt for the best post-round hangouts in golf, start here: these are the best 19th holes around the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Best 19th Holes and Post-Round Hangout Spots<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

1. The Tap Room at Pebble Beach<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Pebble Beach, California<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

We\u2019re kicking off our list with one of the most iconic 19th holes: The Tap Room<\/a> at Pebble Beach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This isn\u2019t your standard post-round burger and beer spot (though they\u2019ve got that, too). The Tap Room serves up prime and certified Angus beef, vintage wines, and a curated selection of fine scotches and whiskeys.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But the real standout isn\u2019t just what\u2019s on your plate – it\u2019s what\u2019s on the walls. Lining the room is a priceless collection of golf memorabilia from some of the sport\u2019s most legendary moments. One look around and there\u2019s no doubt you\u2019re somewhere special.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Brooks\u2019 Bar & Deck at Edgewood Tahoe Resort<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Stateline, Nevada<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Vaulted ceilings and massive windows at Brooks\u2019 Bar & Deck<\/a> frame sweeping views of the golf course, the turquoise waters of Lake Tahoe, and the snow-capped peaks of the Sierras. Hard to imagine a more beautiful setting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When you\u2019re not caught staring out at the view, Brooks\u2019 delivers on all fronts – plenty of TVs to catch a game, a menu full of elevated gastropub fare, and a deep list of beers, wines, and specialty cocktails.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. The Veranda and Grillroom at Caledonia Golf & Fish Club<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Pawleys Island, South Carolina<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
\"Caledonia<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Welcoming atmosphere. Unparalleled views. Enticing menu. None of these factors alone would be enough to make our ranks. It takes a special kind of place that possesses all three – like Caledonia Golf & Fish Club.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Caledonia\u2019s wraparound porch overlooking the 18th green provides a truly striking scene of the Intracoastal Waterway and native marshland. On a cool summer evening, you\u2019ll find it jam-packed with spectators, drink in hand, badgering friends below as they finish up their rounds. The Grillroom<\/a>, just inside, serves up signature low country grub like fried pickles, barbecue sandwiches, crab cakes, and so much more. Hungry yet?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Mr. B’s Pub at the Pine Crest Inn<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Pinehurst, North Carolina<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

There\u2019s a certain kind of comfort in pulling up a barstool and simply being asked, \u201cThe usual?\u201d That\u2019s exactly what you can expect from a visit to Mr. B’s Pub at the Pine Crest Inn<\/a>. It\u2019s dimly lit (but not dreary), filled with memorabilia (that\u2019s invaluable), and small in size (so you can eavesdrop on the guys next to you and interject with golf stories of your own). The charm is truly undeniable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s also known as the place where guests can chip golf balls into the lobby\u2019s fireplace – a Pine Crest Inn tradition. Visit while a major championship is in town, and you may find some tour pros giving it a whirl. Trying it yourself? We recommend doing so before<\/em> that first drink\u2026for obvious reasons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. McKee\u2019s Pub at Bandon Dunes Golf Resort<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Bandon, Oregon<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
\"McKees<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For the quintessential Scottish adventure without leaving the borders, we all know Bandon Dunes Golf Resort<\/a> is the place to be. But the birthplace of the game isn\u2019t only evident in Bandon\u2019s six courses. It\u2019s nearly tangible in every on-site experience, including one of our favorites: McKee\u2019s Pub<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From the Scottish-style setting to the delectable pub fare (we\u2019re looking at you, Grandma\u2019s Meatloaf), it\u2019s the ideal place to fill up and wind down. Pair that with a Pacific Northwest microbrew or a classic single malt scotch, and you\u2019ve got yourself a proper 19th hole.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

6. The Jigger Inn at the Old Course Hotel, Golf Resort & Spa<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

St. Andrews, Scotland<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Dating back to the 1850s, the Jigger Inn<\/a> isn\u2019t just one of the best 19th holes – it\u2019s one of the most historic. Located at the Old Course Hotel, the Jigger was originally the stationmaster\u2019s lodge. Today, it\u2019s a cozy, storied pub, warmed by open-hearth fires and rich with golf relics along every wall. The vibe is timeless, and so is the menu. Home-cooked eats and a pint of Jigger Ale make for the perfect post-round pairing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

7. Ailsa Pub at Legends Resort<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Myrtle Beach, South Carolina<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The Jigger Inn might be one of the most historic 19th holes, but the Ailsa Pub<\/a> at Legends Resort might be the biggest. In the golf capital of the world, you need a spot that\u2019s just as memorable as the round itself. Whether you\u2019re celebrating a clutch birdie or stewing over a missed tap-in, Ailsa Pub delivers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Scottish-themed hangout boasts 16 TVs, indoor and outdoor seating, and a seasonal outdoor bar complete with a pool table, ping pong, corn hole, and horseshoes. It would be sacrilegious to take a golf trip to Myrtle Beach<\/a> and not stop by.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

8. Pelican Grill & Bar at Pelican Hill Golf Club<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Newport Beach, California<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

\u201cSunsets are served daily\u201d at Pelican Grill & Bar<\/a>. As are the craft cocktails, wood-fired pizzas, prime steaks, and fresh catch of the day. Need we say more? Probably not, but we will. You can dine al fresco to fully enjoy the nearby Pacific Ocean, or dine indoors and be entertained by chefs preparing your meal in their open-concept kitchen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

9. Cliffs Couches at Cabot Cape Breton<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Inverness, Nova Scotia<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
\"Cliffs<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For all the grandeur and opulence that is Cabot Cape Breton, there\u2019s a remarkably laid-back 19th hole that may very well be the best in Canada. And it\u2019s Cliffs Couches. Cabot actually has a few post-round hangout options<\/a> to choose from, all of which are excellent, but Cliffs Couches is truly one-of-a-kind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The couches are located between the 10th and 18th greens, affording uninterrupted views of incoming groups and the endless horizon of the Atlantic Ocean. Recently expanded with even more seating, it\u2019s the ultimate spot to kick back with a drink, swap stories, and soak in one of the most spectacular settings in golf.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

10. STICKS at The Inn at Spanish Bay<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Pebble Beach, California<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Allow us to set the scene\u2026 The sun is setting on a spectacular day at Spanish Bay. You have a glass of bubbly in hand, feet propped up on one of the outdoor fireplaces. Just to your right are picturesque views of The Links at Spanish Bay, and you\u2019re relaxing to the sound of a bagpiper bringing the spirit of the Scottish Highlands to the California coast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can enjoy all this and more at STICKS<\/a>, located at The Inn at Spanish Bay. STICKS offers a relaxed, sports bar atmosphere with tasty comfort food, flat-screen televisions, craft cocktails, and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

11. Mullins Bar & Grill at Half Moon Bay Golf Links<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Half Moon Bay, California<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

There are a few hidden gems on our list, and Mullins Bar & Grill<\/a> at Half Moon Bay Golf Links is certainly one of them. Mullins offers a wide selection of appetizers, salads, and sandwiches, as well as a full bar with a fabulous selection of wine. The outdoor patio area overlooking the golf course is great for watching the sunset or enjoying a cool evening breeze.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

12. Bar & Grill at Mayacama Golf Club<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Santa Rosa, California<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The Bar & Grill<\/a> at Mayacama Golf Club, one of the best 19th holes, is a great place to relax and unwind after a round of golf. The restaurant offers a variety of delicious dishes, from classic comfort foods to more adventurous entrees. The restaurant also boasts a full bar and an extensive list of wines and craft beers. Whether you’re in the mood for a light bite or a full-course feast, the Bar & Grill delivers a relaxing atmosphere and a menu to match.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

13. The Deuce at Pinehurst Resort<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Pinehurst, North Carolina<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
\"Pinehurst<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After playing any of Pinehurst Resort\u2019s ten courses, you owe it to yourself to enjoy a cold one at The Deuce<\/a>. Overlooking the famed 18th green of Pinehurst No. 2, few settings are more superb for some friendly heckling and excellent eats. The drinks are top-tier, too, with innovative cocktails and several craft beers on tap, including North Carolina microbrews.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For festivities beyond the 19th hole, consider clinking glasses at the nearby Pinehurst Brewing Company or spending an evening at the Cradle Crossing. Overlooking the third green and fourth tee at The Cradle, the resort\u2019s world-famous short course<\/a>, the Cradle Crossing is an open-air bar with plenty of seating to kick back, sip on a transfusion, and watch the Cradle fun unfold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

14. Road Hole Bar at the Old Course Hotel, Golf Resort & Spa<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

St. Andrews, Scotland<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

If the walls of the Road Hole Bar<\/a> could talk, they\u2019d tell stories of evenings filled with laughter, friendships reunited, and nights that stretch on forever. They\u2019d recount the sound of glasses clinking, whisky flowing, and conversations that go well into the night. This is no ordinary bar, especially with its spectacular view of the 17th Hole at the Old Course. Known for its expansive whisky selection, the Road Hole Bar boasts 260 varieties, sourced from nearly every distillery in Scotland, making it a must-visit for whisky lovers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

15. The Ryder Cup Bar at The Ocean Course at Kiawah Island Golf Resort<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Kiawah Island, South Carolina<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The 1991 Ryder Cup at The Ocean Course, dubbed the \u201cWar by the Shore,\u201d was one of the most electric showdowns in Ryder Cup history. So, it\u2019s only fitting to have a bar named after such a celebratory time, for the U.S. fans anyway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step inside the Ryder Cup Bar<\/a> and you\u2019ll be surrounded by historic memorabilia from that unforgettable week. But if the sea breeze is calling, grab a spot outside and soak in the sweeping views of the course and coastline. As for the food, the Bagger Burger, named after The Legend of Bagger Vance (which was filmed on Kiawah Island Golf Resort’s courses), is an absolute must-try. You can\u2019t go wrong with the Crispy Shrimp or Fried Green Tomatoes, either.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

16. Pub 59 at Streamsong Resort<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Bowling Green, Florida<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
\"Streamsong<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With more than half a dozen dining options at Streamsong Resort, it takes something special to stand out. Enter Pub 59<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Located at the Red & Blue Clubhouse, this all-day spot overlooks the practice putting green and the Bye Hole – perfect for grabbing a bite between rounds or winding down after one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The menu leans into elevated pub fare, with breakfast staples in the morning and hearty favorites the rest of the day. Think specialty burgers, signature pork belly mac \u2018n\u2019 cheese, and – wait for it – a bacon ice cream sundae that\u2019s a Pub 59 classic. Pair any of it with one of their 16 microbrews or craft beers on tap.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

17. Phil\u2019s Grill at Grayhawk Golf Club<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Scottsdale, Arizona<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Phil\u2019s Grill<\/a> at Grayhawk Golf Club isn\u2019t just a spot to grab a bite – it\u2019s a tribute to one of the game’s greats. Step inside and you\u2019ll find yourself surrounded by the story of Phil Mickelson\u2019s career. From his junior golf days to major championship glory, the walls are lined with mementos: clubs, photos, and artifacts that trace Lefty\u2019s journey through the game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Outfitted in rich hardwood and leather, the space feels equal parts cozy and classic. Whether you’re kicking back inside or soaking up the Arizona sun on the patio, Phil\u2019s Grill delivers with strong pours, hearty plates, and a whole lot of golf history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

18. The Adirondack Chairs at Arcadia Bluffs<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Arcadia, Michigan<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Arcadia Bluffs has plenty of places<\/a> to post up after a round, but none get you closer to the action than The Adirondack Chairs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Perched right on the edge of the 18th green of the Bluffs Course, this cluster of seats delivers front-row views of both finishing groups and the sweeping Lake Michigan shoreline. It\u2019s scenic, serene, and just far enough from the clubhouse to feel like your own little corner of the course. And the best part? The drinks come to you. All you have to do is sit back and sip!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

19. Packard\u2019s Steakhouse at Innisbrook Golf Resort<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Palm Harbor, Florida<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
\"Innisbrook<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Innisbrook Golf Resort\u2019s signature restaurant, Packard\u2019s Steakhouse<\/a>, is located right on the Copperhead Course. The restaurant serves only the finest aged premium beef steaks, cold-water lobster tails, and fresh local fish, all enjoyed in a comfortable, upscale setting. Pair your meal with a glass of red or white from their vast wine menu or opt for a tasty cocktail instead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, the best 19th holes? They’re where stories are shared, rivalries softened, and memories etched into the fabric of the trip. The putts you made, the ones you didn\u2019t, and everything in between – it all gets retold here, over a well-earned drink and good company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
