LA Bars and Restaurants Where You Can Watch Football | Eater

"If you live in LA, you’ve probably heard of Barney’s Beanery, which has been in the area since 1927. The original location is located in West Hollywood, but the Pasadena location in Old Town is the biggest. It features three distinct spaces: Barney’s Beanery on the main floor, a billiards bar on the second floor, and a tiki-inspired bar on the lower level. After watching some football, head to the tiki bar below for some tropical drinks to keep the night going." - Samantha Leal

Barney's Beanery - Pasadena - Review - Los Angeles - The Infatuation

"If you’ve ever watched a sporting event at a bar in LA County, there’s a 50/50 chance that bar was a Barney’s Beanery. With locations from Redondo Beach to Pasadena, their big, boisterous sports bars are everywhere, and definitely get wild on NFL Sundays. We haven’t been here yet, but want you to know this spot exists." - Team Infatuation

The LA Taco Tuesday Directory

"Barney’s is one of the most well-known bars in Los Angeles, and remains a consistently fun place to eat and drink. The food is above average for a sports bar, and on Taco Tuesday you’ll find a crowd of Pasadena locals who are here to drink some margaritas and make some friends. The deal: $2 tacos, $4 Mexican drafts, $7 margaritas, all day." - amy clark, kat hong

Where to Watch the Super Bowl in Los Angeles | Eater LA

"The raucous sports bar in Old Pasadena makes no bones about it: it’s a Pats bar through and through. With TVs outfitted in the booths and just about everywhere throughout the building, it’ll be impossible to miss the inevitable Gronk spike." - Euno Lee

An absolute vibe. This location has 3 floors and something for everyone. The basement is a tiki themed bar often featuring karaoke. The main floor is a typical Barney’s theme with plenty of vintage decor, a good selection of draft beers and a DJ on weekends. The upstairs has at least 10 pool tables, likely more and a hidden out door patio, perfect to grab some fresh air and chat with friends. While there are a lot of seating options, I would suggest going early to snag a table for the night. We waited in a short line, no more than 5 minutes at 11:30pm on a Friday night. There was a $5 cover charge (can be paid cash, card or tap)

After three years of loyal Thursdays at our usual bar and restaurant, a change in management left it lackluster, prompting our group of Gen Xers and Boomers to seek a new spot. We landed at Barney's Beanery, and here’s how it went. The vibe hits you right at the door—friendly security welcomes you into a lively, hip bar area. The ceiling is decked out with license plates from across the U.S., string lights add a cozy glow, and tables are adorned with photos of 60s and 70s bands and singers. The crowd skews younger, mostly 20- and 30-somethings, but the music, a mix of 70s classics to current Top 40, bridges the gap nicely. On Thursdays, they offer karaoke downstairs and pool tables upstairs, which adds to the fun. Seating was our first hurdle. Our group, typically 8 to 12 strong, struggled to find a table, as most are set for four. The wait staff, however, was fantastic—especially our server, Peter P., who went above and beyond to secure a table that worked for us. His friendliness and attentiveness set the tone for a great experience. The menu impressed us. The beer selection is stellar, and the food options are surprisingly robust for a bar and the kitchen is open until midnight. They serve breakfast all day, so several in our group opted for eggs Benedict and bagel sandwiches, while another ordered fish and chips. I went for the Juicy Burger, stuffed with cheese, paired with crispy, well-seasoned fries. The food exceeded our expectations—the burger was phenomenal, and those fries alone are worth a return visit. The only menu letdown was the limited wine selection, which could use a bit more variety. We hit one snag: the kitchen seemed to lose our fish and chips order. Peter was quick to sort it out, ensuring it arrived promptly, which we appreciated. The staff’s overall warmth and hustle, especially Peter’s, made the night feel special. The only real downside is the seating. With tables mostly capped at four, it’s tough for a larger group like ours to settle in comfortably for our usual eat-drink-and-chat routine. Still, Barney’s Beanery delivered a great experience, and I’d highly recommend it for its atmosphere, food, and stellar service—just maybe not for big groups.

Venue & Atmosphere Fantastic spot to catch a game, with a tasty snack or a hearty meal. Fans of various teams come together harmoniously, creating a sociable atmosphere with many eager to strike up conversations during matches. Music Post-game, expect a lively mix of hip-hop and pop hits courtesy of the DJ. (Friday night) Staff Employees are notably friendly and engaging. Areas for Improvement The volume of the last call and bar close announcements is jarringly loud. Though effective, it's a bit grating. Also, the time gap between the last calls and the bar actually closing felt short.

Not from around here but this is a super fun place! Aubrie was such a breath of fresh air server and so helpful with recommendations! Lots of fun decorations and the food options are overwhelming! (In a good way though! ) Drink options are just as good! Super friendly staff as well!

Very cool place to grab a drink & watch a game, or play a game. Pool tables & arcade games, very cool decor. Food was not good at all, waitress was nice but got our order all wrong. If food is what u want eat somewhere else & come back to play pool & have drinks 🍸

This place was very nice the atmosphere and the vibes is very great ! Our waitress Raquel was the best she made sure she went out her way to give the best service ever. Drinks were off the chain! The pool table kept us having fun! We will be back !

If you are a fan of college football or trying to watch an Game on Saturdays and optionally a Notre Dame football fan, this is a great place to watch ND football games on the East side of Los Angeles. Barney’s staff have been awesome and willing to set up a separate section upstairs of the bar to watch ND games on a set of TVs with game commentary audio. Overall great food and great service for a sports bar.

First time to Barney's I loved the decor inside. It's clean but fun, large bar and dining area. I went during happy hour on a weekday so it was fairly quiet. Menu is fun as it's a newspaper. Bar service not sitting at the bar but in the bar area was just "okay". I was served a Cadillac margarita with no shot on the side and when I asked about it I was told it was "already inside". I watched the server check with the bartender and quickly the shot was brought to my table so no complaints there. The BBQ Juicy Lucy was perfect to share and came split with fries extra crispy per my request. Pass on the chips, salsa and guac. It's not worth it. We expected a light starter and it was super mid. One thing to note is the bathrooms... I noticed only one had a sink and soap inside.

Blonde manager from the 8pm shift (Tues) barks at my family for using downstairs bathrooms saying there's a closed sign! BS I walk her up the stairs and the tiny closed sign is tucked away behind a small tree* she was have trouble conceding that she was in the wrong, smirked at us saying "it's both our faults" NOPE! I told her it's their FAIL for not moving the sign. She was forced to half ass apologize. Barney's higher management: Careful how your managers talk to customers and teach them not to be pricks with customers especially when Barney's was at the wrong.

Their gift cards are a scam. I purchased some gift cards the past few months from the official Barney's Beanery website. I just went to the Pasadena location for brunch and when I tried to pay using the gift cards that I had just recently purchased, they said they can longer pay using the gift cards I just bought. They did not offer any way to take them and figure out how to process them with the vendors they have contracted with, which would be reasonable but rather to screw their customers out of laziness. Even now they are selling the gift cards that supposedly don't expire and list Pasadena as a location so the fact they can't take them seems like a scam to me. I hope this review saves some other from the same issue and sheds some light into how the ownership and management handles customer facing issues.

Had a lot of fun coming here for the first time with some friends!! I loved the vibe of the place so much and I told my gf that I wanted to come back again and bring her here one day!!! As a group, we enjoyed chatting with each other and decided to also order some food and drinks. We booked a table and all played some pool. We enjoyed together the carne asada fries (which I got super full from-- they also tasted really good!!) and some drinks!!! I was able to feel drunk from only 2 drinks here which was pretty great! I really ENJOYED Barney's due to the vibes once again and it was pretty empty for a Thursday night, which was awesome. I enjoyed the ambiance, the decor and atmosphere. Everything was great and the furniture to sit at is also very unique. Highly recommend going here for a night out!!!

Located in Old Town. Opens late and offers a variety of food and drinks on the menu. Fun place to be on the weekends. Both indoor outdoor seatings available. We ordered some cocktails and they were not good. One of the strawberry drink was full of salt for some reason. Couldn't taste anything else.

First time at Barney's and came for the LA dodgers game (the last 2 they had) and WOW LOVEEEED BARNEYSSS- the vibe was definitely fun! Also.. can't help but love it as dodgers won the world seriesss here (for me hahaha) Food: -carne asada fries: steak fries! I'm not the biggest steak fries fan and so should have read that right. The salsa was also very big tomatoes so wasn't my fave fave. But the second night, got the nachos and that was a popular popular one! Next time will get that -Nashville hot chicken: a solid hot chicken sandwich Drinks: -beer options! But they do run out- though to be fair we were there for dodger games ANND for the world series win so... it's probably more on us then them? heh Service: -friendly, considerate, prompt, available! They were awesome Overall: a fun sports bar! DEFINITELY hypes up when your team is playing and that's pretty awesome! The spaces are nice too and give room for big/small parties.

Love the classic chili here! We order it to go and it comes with everything ( chips, sour cream, onions and cheese). It's a fun spot to watch sports and grab a beer and some munchies. The wait staff is always friendly and welcoming. Young crowd ( ucla) watering hole I suspect! Stop by and have a beverage and see if you don't have an old school bar good time

Nice bar in the city! My friends and I have been here a few times at night when it turns into just a bar and I've only ever had good experiences! Service is always great, drinks are strong, bathrooms are always decently clean and I love the different vibe on all 3 levels. Top floor is pool tables/bar, second floor bar, tables, bottom floor is a tiki bar!

Hubby and I stopped in BB for Sunday afternoon lunch date. We enjoyed their vast beer collection with a good amount of CA beers on it. Our first table was syrup sticky and we were moved to another table quickly w no issue. Hubby and I shared the mozzarella sticks which came w warm marinara and they were delightful. I would get these again. After the mozz stix things got weird but Ilyana, our server, made an amazing recovery. Hubby ordered a turkey Ruben but was sent out a turkey club which had Avo on it which he can't eat. My Cobb came out perfect aside from missing the bacon. She brought the kitchen errors to managements attention and made a smooth recovery. She even comped us for a beer for the kitchen mistakes. Thanks Ilyana! Five stars for you.

My first time here at Barneys Beanery. I was with a group of co-workers for a social hour. I didn't know what to expect prior to my arrival. It's a restaurant with a full bar. They have a good menu of food items plus happy hour appetizers. Pastrami sliders, mini hamburgers, teriyaki and buffalo chicken wings, potato skins, mozzarella sticks, and jalapeños poppers were ordered. I only ate the teriyaki chicken wings and potato skins... they were both delicious! Everyone got their own drinks. I tried their mojito virgin which is a minty drink... I like mint, but it didn't WOW me as I thought it would... it wasn't the same mojito drink that I had at another restaurant... don't assume the same name will have the same taste. Towards the end of the evening, I went bold and got myself a bad apple cider (two co-workers got it so I thought I would give it a try)... it was so amazingly refreshing for an alcohol drink! I normally don't drink alcohol, but this was very good... I would name it bad a** cider... yes, fill in the asterisks LOL. Staff was super friendly and nice. Ambiance is very interesting. It has a dark intriguing flare and theme to it... I can't really explain it. Drink prices were decent. Great place for after work social hour events and/or meetup with friends and family. I would for sure come back here just for the appetizers and my bad a** cider LOL. Btw, they do have limited free parking, but it's a small lot. It may be best to just find street parking... there is plenty of that around Old Town Pasadena.

I like this place I been a couple of times with a friend from the area and they have good drinks and nice spots all over the restaurant. Bartenders are pretty fast and nice,what I didn't like is that at certain time of the night the charge to get in that is not great bc is not even a club.

The bartenders were all very nice! We went on a Friday night so it was very busy. The atmosphere is fun, there's tchotchkes all over the walls, lots of tables to sit at, and pool tables on the second level. The drinks were typical for pricing and the service was quick. They had a DJ that was awesome! He was my favorite part of the bar. The crowd got a little rowdy a few times and a couple people were kicked out but security was on top of it. I'd be curious to see the vibe during the day or on a week night

There are places, scattered like stars, where the soul feels at ease, and the heart dances unburdened by the weight of the world. Barney's Beanery in Pasadena is such a place--a raucous haven where wings are crisp, beer flows cold, and joy settles like a well-worn coat on your shoulders. I went with my friends, my amigos, my compadres--a merry band of seekers in search of good eats and even better times. And, oh, did we find them. The wings, dear reader, are the stuff of legend. Lemon pepper with their tangy zest and buffalo with their fiery vigor, paired with ranch and blue cheese so divine it could make a grown man weep. One might think they'd mastered the art of the dip; no, they have transcended it. But it wasn't just the wings that sang a siren song to my soul. No, the real magic lay in the karaoke--a celebration of human vulnerability and triumph rolled into one off-key melody after another. The host, a man of charm and wit, welcomed all with open arms and a sly joke, though his allegiance to the Philadelphia Eagles left much to be desired. "Fly Eagles Fly"? Perhaps. But I wondered, as I clutched my mic and prepared to butcher a classic, if his choice of team was the only blemish on an otherwise perfect evening. And then, like a gift from the gods themselves, he appeared. A charming older gentleman took the mic, and from the first note, women flocked like the salmon of Capistrano. His personality was so magnetic that I found myself unable to carry my credit cards--forced to rely on Apple Pay for the rest of the night. Was it the voice? The charisma? The inexplicable pull of the karaoke stage? Whatever it was, it left a lasting impression. The layout of this bar is a marvel. The main floor buzzes with camaraderie, the basement hums with its own secrets, and the upstairs whispers promises of a good view and a better vibe. It's a labyrinth of merriment, with security who ensure that the only troubles you face are whether to order another beer or another basket of wings. Barney's Beanery is the kind of place where you feel safe, even in your most vulnerable moments--like belting out Whitney Houston with your compadres cheering you on, or biting into a wing so hot it tests your very resolve. It's a perfect spot to watch a ball game, grab a beer, and toast to a night well-lived. Would I go back? Without hesitation. Do I recommend you go? Absolutely. Just prepare yourself for wings, laughs, and maybe even a crack at karaoke. Life is short, my friends, and Barney's Beanery makes it just a little sweeter--and spicier. Five stars. No notes. Except maybe, host--go Rams? I digress.

Solid weekend spot with a lot of character. Barney's in Pasadena has that perfect mix of divey and fun. The inside's got a cool, nostalgic vibe--tons of signs, neon, and stuff to look at. There's a whole upstairs area with pool tables, which is a nice bonus if you're looking to hang for a while. I went on a Saturday night, and it was just the right kind of busy--lively but not overwhelming. Bartenders were super friendly, drinks came out quick, and the pretzels hit the spot if you need a snack. It's not reinventing the wheel, but it's a great place to chill, play some pool, and have a good time with friends. Would go back for the vibe alone.

105 degrees outside and the power goes out! Staff kept their cool. BOOM! Power comes back and the big chant!!! Busy but fully staff. No heartbeat missed here! No waiting long on food! Or drinks! I like the attention they give you despite being packed! 5 stars . Pasadena parking so find a spot and don't forget to tip your people and every two hours go out and pay that parking! Kudos to the staff!

this place is such a vibe! great place to bring your friends to eat, drink, hangout, or even play pool. we came on a thursday evening to continue my friend's birthday festivities and it wasn't busy at all. there were quite a few people hanging around the pool tables or just dining in. they had lots of options for food, but we just came back from a dinner so we grabbed fried pickles as an appetizer while we had a chat and drinks. we let the waiter know it was our friend's birthday and as a gift from the restaurant, she was given ice cream w/ whipped cream on top! only complaint was that we were kind of forgotten by our waiter towards the end of the night and had to tag her down outside of our table since the establishment is pretty big. give this place a try!

Help write a review: A group of us have been going to the same bar and restruant every Thursday for the last 3 years. Unfortunately, this bar/restaurant changed managment is just not the same. We are on the look out for our next location and decided to try Barney's Beanery. You are greated with friendly security. Upon entering the bar area is very hip, a celing with license plates from accross the nation, sting lights and the tables have picturs of 60's and 70's bands and singers. The main cliental are 20/30-somethings. We are a group of GenX and Booms. The music playing was a variety of 70's to present top 40. We came on a Thursday and they had kerioki down stares and there are pool tables up stairs. We had a problem finding seating for our group. The wait staff was very friendly and accommodating and our sever, Peter P helped us find a table that worked. We were very impressed by the beer offerings and menue. The wine menue was a bit limited, however. They serve breakfast all day and several at our party orded the eggs bendeict and bagle sandwitch. Another orderer fish and chips and I had their Juciy Burger that is their stuffed with cheese. The food exceeded our expectations for a bar. I can say the burger was amazing and the fries were awesome, crispy and well seasoned... I sould come back just for the beer and fires. We were very impressed with the staff, especially our server, Peter P. He was very friendly and went out of his way to accommodate us. We had one issue where it looked like the kitchen lost our order of fish and chips. Peter was on top of it and got it out right away. The only negative is that we are there to sit, eat and drink. Tables for the most part are limited to four. Not sure this is going to accommodate us as our group is typically 8 - 12. But would still highly recommend.

Hubby and I went up to Pasadena for an amazing music festival. The entire weekend was an incredible, positive experience... all except for this place. We were next door at the music festival pre-party having so much fun dancing that we never got anything to eat that evening. We were starving when the pre-party ended. The bar we were in had stopped serving food. One of the employees at the pre-party bar let us know that Barneys serves food late, so we went. When we arrived, there was a small line to get in. I spoke to the bouncer who assured us that they served food until midnight, so we waited and the line moved quickly. When we got in the door, we found out that there was a $5 cover. I asked if we had to pay the cover just to have dinner, and they said yes. We paid, as the thought of getting something to eat was feeling very tempting at the moment. Well, after paying, I found that they didn't even seat us at a table. We had to walk through the bar and luckily found a small booth to sit in so that we could get served. When we sat down, there was some R&B playing, which isn't my thing, but I don't mind. Unfortunately, it quickly turned into gangster rap, which I do mind. Also, it was so lout that my husband and I couldn't hear each other across a tiny booth... so we ate in silence. I am used to shows, loud bars and dance floors, but this volume was ridiculous if you wanted to socialize in any way. Anway, I ordered a whiskey ginger and we shared mozerralla sticks and a small pizza. The food was pretty bad... definitely frozen food that they heat up for diners. I absolutely could not wait to leave. I was astonished that there were people waiting in line and paying cover to get in.... maybe they were like us and had no idea what to expect. I am not sure what the attraction was... they didn't even have a dance floor. I gave two stars rather than one because our server was pretty quick and attentive. Honestly, this is one of the most horrible places I have been in a long time.

We came in on a Saturday night for late dinner. Due to the crowd and waitlist at Rocco's Tavern, we chose another sports bar instead. We first contacted the place to find out how crowded it was, and we were told that there were no queues at all. Deluxe Pizza | The toppings were nothing out of the ordinary. The crusty with slightly charred flavor dough was the best part. Mexican Breakfast (wrong order, it's supposed to be Ensalada wrap) | The sauce was too salty. Even with the sauce, the corn tortillas were still too dry. Despite everything, the rice was tasty. The ensalada wrap would probably be better lol. Menu: Sports bar foods, such as wing and burger are server. Breakfast is available all day as well. Service: The service was subpar. The first few orders took more than 30 minutes to come out and some were even delayed. Fries were served after all of us had finished eating. The Ensalada wrap did not come, we received Mexican Breakfast instead. 3 servers attended our table, which likely why there were too much confusions. It's apparent why everyone was at Rocco's lol. Parking: Parking garage

I always like coming here but if there's one thing I can't stand as a fellow bartender is when you wait to help someone longer than they should especially when 3 customers come up after you and are still helped because they are friends ir regulars. Do better please Wednesday crew

The Karaoke DJ downstairs Nate said that our birthday girl was limited to the number of songs she could sing, she was only allowed to sing three songs. Yet, he had what seemed like his friends up on the karaoke stage multiple times (more than three for multiple"friends"). He was truly the pure definition of what I would define as a person who is a "douche". Not cool what he did. This will be the last time we celebrate with our large 20 plus family at this karaoke spot. I look forward to the response of management, but we'll see how that goes....

Great atmosphere here if you enjoy the sports bar vibe which i do. It's always a good time here with friends. I enjoy going here for pool, karaoke night and drinks. Though I would never recommend eating here unless it's your a bunch of college kids who just want soem wings and loaded fries.

Get New Management!!! The manager, Aj was rude and dismissive as we arrived early to watch the Dodgers play in the World Series. We were sitting at tables next to each other to save the table for our friends who were coming. Aj passive aggressively throws down "reserved" signs on our table without any words. We asked him to explain and he yelled from a distance "give me a minute".... He later said all tables were reserved prior to people who had called in asking for reservations. Fast forward to tables filling up , we asked them as they were sitting at the table we had wanted and they said they never made a reservation, just came in off the street. Whats worse is one table never filled up for half the game. Just sat there with a "reserved " sign . Marissa was a Wonderful waitress! She made our night . But AJ - do better.

I've waited about 34 years to go to Barney's beanery. I walked in and the ambiance was nice. The bar was full so I had a seat. The waiter is getting tipped for noticing the customer that wasn't getting serviced. (I was a waiter, FYI. ) I had ordered a burger and fries and a drink off the top of my head just to be fast cuz I needed to leave in 15 minutes. I asked for no onions and no jalapenos. I guess it's my fault for not just asking for a patty cheese and a bun. It's nobodys business that I had food poisoning today and that my stomach really can't take digesting a jalapeno. So this is for the chef that was working at 9:45pm. I worked all day. Don't make my dinner wrong. If I say that I don't want something on my food assume that I'm allergic to it and don't put it on my food. Ok? That means if you put jalapenos in the guacamole and someone asks for no jalapenos then tell the waiter there's jalapenos in the guacamole. And that's why you shouldn't do that. Guacamole is just mashed up avocado and nothing else. I ate your food and now my stomach hurts. Is that what you want? You want people to eat your food and then have pain in their stomach later? Stopped eating right after I found these in my food. Too bad for me I was eating at rocket speed and trusting you to make my food the way I asked for it.

I used to go to BB all the time and it was great! The best decor, great burgers, drinks and service no matter how busy. Today, it was a bust. Empty and such slow service we thought she had left! The 2 simple orders finally arrived and the burger was literally inedible. Low quality meat on greasy lettuce and the bun (could've been from Vons) was stale and tasted like freezer burn. the chicken tenders were okay. The bill was $50! Highway robbery! You want a good burger, you'll get one at a steakhouse down the block for probably the same price! Sadly, BB has lost a customer forever!

Love this classic coffee shop in downtown Pasadena! Great vibe with TVs playing sports at each table and 80s music playing on the background. Service was excellent with our server seating us quickly and immediately taking our drink order (my coffee never ran out!). Food was delicious as always. Nothing trendy just classic diner food. Overall a five star experience!

We wanted a place to watch the game and have some good bar food. This place was packed, but they got us in real quick. Very accommodating, and offered to move us to a bigger table as soon as it was open. The food was great. The drinks were amazing. And a TV at every table.my only complaint is that the TVs at the table are on a small lag compared to the big TVs so you do have a delay and people are cheering for things that you haven't seen yet.

Ummm...a cover charge to get in on a Friday at 9pm? Dude we just wanted to eat. You now want people to pay to go in and eat off the menu. Hell no. This place is struggling....don't bother with this place. This place ain't no dance club!!!

Don't fall for the "late night special/ taco Tuesday. The tacos are a joke. 1 tortilla w a couple of of diced pieces of meat... no Bueno...

Old favorite LA eatery. They have a extensive menu. Had reuben sandwich with salad. Nothing cheap - $20 plus for a burger. Make it yourself to save money. Staff dress like homeless- servers should at least dress appropriately. I remember original Barneys in Hollywood - saw Brian Setzer - mid 1980s. We are both old coots now.

I love a nice patio, good music & great cocktails. Barney's Beanery has all three. Our server was very attentive, also. I look forward to going back and trying out some of the dishes and maybe playing a game of pool. Added plus, they stay open late.

I'll begin with the service which I've given the 3 's! However, I ordered the buffalo wings and unfortunately they weren't to my liking. They appeared to be drenched in sauce and to my surprise upon tasting them it was true! Chicken cooked then drenched in sauce to the customers! The drinks were just ok I had a Margarita which came in a water drinking glass along with a shot. I'll probably never return!!!! Thank to the waitress because she was amazing

I ordered a mojito and it was disgusting, asked a different bartender to remake it AND IT CAME OUT EVEN WORSE. This place needs to train their bartenders. Just order a beer to be safe.

My boys and I always go here, it's "our place" (they like it, I think it's alright bar food but step above chilli's, BJ's and all that. Ate their phili cheesesteaks while intoxicated, it was okay but Jersey mikes is better tbh. But the portion was better, 7/10. Fries were bangin tho The tikibar, drank a gin+sprite (2x), for 8.50 and they filled it too the brim!! Yuh!! (8/10) great drink good recommend form my brother and nice bartender, didn't get the name. The waiter messed up my order when I asked for no mushrooms ‍ and they brought us someone's order that they charged us for Bread (9/10) Steak (was flat peice) 6/10 Peppers (would liked more) 7/10 Cheese (really gooey, would of love some Swiss tho) 8/10 The DJ guy was awosme tho!! 10/10 for him. Super friendly

"An excellent spot for dinner. The menu offers a diverse range of options, from fluffy pancakes to hearty sandwiches, all made with high-quality ingredients. The service is friendly, and the ambiance is perfect for a relaxing meal."

Pretty good. Started with the Irish nachos with a side of chili... mmmhmmm Husband got a BLAT (bacon, lettuce, avocado & tomato) and I got the jalapeño juicy Lucy. The chili was the star of the show. Taking home 4 sides of it . The ambiance is great and EVERY SINGLE TABLE had a TV! Will be back again if ever in Pasadena

Came here on a Thursday night so it was not entirely busy but there was somewhat of a crowd. My friend and I got a spot on the bar top and we were helped instantly. All of the bartenders were friendly and attentive. The drinks were good, a little strong but that should be more of a good thing than bad. The music was good and everyone seemed like they were having a good time. I would like to come back here on its busier days I am sure it would be a fun time.

Vibes, music, drinks and karaoke are super fun here. However, during halloweekend they did falsely advertise a $5 cover charge outside their door when it was in actuality $10.

Management needs a revamp!!! I've been going to this Barney's location since moving to Pasadena in 2008. Never had a bad experience until this year. In need of a new place to watch NFL games this season, I decided on Barney's Beanery. They have a couple bartenders that make me want to return time and time again. HOWEVER, on several occassions throughout the year I have been met with a rude manager (Chelsea) who neglects to put games on (even when you remind them a couple times), and will look at you while they pretend to put them on. I'm not asking for anything that wasn't going to happen anyways (putting on the sound and visual for Sunday or Monday night football). This individual was also very rude and unhelpful during the last World Series game. Of course, as always, another staff member saw what was happening, and stepped up and went above and beyond to keep us happy customers. I've spoken with staff and other regulars who share similar sentiments about management. When everyone is saying it, there surely is an issues that needs addressing. I don't want anyone to lose their job, but maybe management could use a good talking to, or certain people should just no longer be in charge of putting on games, or dealing with customers on the floor. I'm rooting for you Barney's!!!!

Nice place to hangout and order a few drinks but kind of expensive. Servers are nothing special and I found a fruit fly in my drink and food
