Hey all, I'm potentially heading to Cal State Fullerton next fall and I wanted to know how the nightlife is. What's there to do on weekends? Are there certain spots that are a must-see? Thanks for all the info!
There's quite a bit happening around Cal State Fullerton, particularly on weekends! Besides the events occasionally organized by the school itself, there are loads of unique venues for entertainment and socialization nearby.
Downtown Fullerton is a vibrant hub that becomes more active as night falls. Surrounded by various dining establishments, wine bars, and breweries, this is the heart of Fullerton nightlife. Slidebar, for instance, often has live music, while Heroes Bar and Grill is popular for its food and beer selection. Stubrik's Steakhouse is a great spot if you're into jazz music and a hearty steak meal.
Many students also head over to the local movie theater or go bowling, particularly if they're looking for a quieter evening. Fullerton is also home to plenty of coffee shops that remain open late, perfect for some studying or casual chat paired with good coffee.
If you're up for a short drive or can use public transport, nearby cities like Anaheim also have a wealth of nightlife options from amusement parks like Disneyland to concerts at the House of Blues.
Just remember to prioritize your academics and stay on top of your schoolwork too. It's easy to get swept up in the fun of the social scene, but balance is key!
