Kings Row Gastropub

The sports bar vibes are solid, and the outdoor seating is a huge plus, especially on a nice day. The ambiance has a fun, laid-back energy that’s great for casual hangs or catching a game. However, after way too many failed attempts to order through the QR code system, I gave up and went to the bar to order directly. When the food finally made it to the table, it was already cold. And it was only a portion of loaded fries, which might have been sitting waiting to be delivered for a bit. I was not a fan of getting disposable plastic cutlery in a sealed plastic set. So much unnecessary plastic. Parking’s the same deal as most places around here, tricky street situation, but there’s a nearby structure with the first 90 minutes free and a couple of dollars hourly after that.

I got the spicy fried chicken sandwich with spicy tater tots. The sandwich was very good. I would order it again.

A decent establishment within downtown Pasadena if you’re looking for a pub atmosphere. While the food was good, the pricing for some of the items were a high compared to the portion sizes which make this establishment a question place if you’re simply looking for an affordable bite. However, if you are looking for a nice pub to enjoy alcohol and sports with friends, then look no further.

Always fun to have a drink and some bar delights. During the weekend you can typically find a band or DJ playing. There is indoor and patio seating. A must to visit in Pasadena.

Went here to have something to eat with a friend. Really liked the atmosphere and the music of the place. Was told by the person drinking that the beers 🍻 there are really good. Enjoyed the chips and guacamole 🥑. The tortilla chips were homemade as was the dip. They also have Cranberry Juice, which is what I drink now that I don't 🍸 drink (no I'm not on my period- reference The Departed). Would definitely come here again.

Really cool spot off the Blvd. You'll probably question yourself a few times "Is this the place" I Love how it's tucked away beside the alley. Food was great. Beer was great. People were great. It was a vibe for the OKC game!

It felt good to go out and dine in after all this madness has been going around. This place has indoor outdoor seating, outdoor patio is super cozy and chill. Back before covid this place had live band, unfortunately not at the moment, hopefully bands will come back soon. But for now it's a quiet place you can go on dates. The food: We got impossible burger, regular burger, fish tacos, and chili cheese fries. The bun on the burger was perfect, the amount of sesame seed on the bun was phenomenal. Both burgers were delicious, The flavor was like eating a healthier version of McDonald's big Mac, and it was delicious. The chili cheese fries was delicious, i was so glad that it didn't even give me heartburn. Everything was delicious. Definitely check them out. 🤙🏻

I've been coming here since pre-pandemic and it's still my favorite local bar, with the same great drinks, food, and staff!! I love that there is an outdoor patio and dog friendly! Their craft cocktails are amazing, and the WINGS ARE A MUST TRY!! I wish they still had live bands on the weekend!

Tried a few beers here from Kingsrow and Rogue, and they were quite tasty! Live DJ and lots of outdoor seating makes this place a great stop if you are on a night out in Pasadena. Their food menu is quite extensive with burgers, sandwiches, nachos, tacos, and more. Have not had the pleasure of dining in, but the food does smell great. Overall, seems like a decent place to hang out or catch the game. The outside patio is dog friendly, which is always a plus!

"10 out of 10" one of our guests said as we found this awesome spot for dinner, drinks, and celebration following the 1-1 draw between CF Monterrey v Milano Internationale. We arrived just as the Dodgers were pouring it on and pushing through a big win over San Diego Padres. Ordered the "table nachos" with beers & margaritas(house made and strong). For dinner we celebrated with tater tots, onion straws, fish&chips, fish tacos, fish sandwich and a burger. "Someone knows how to work the fryer". Everything was top drawer. The place was buzzing by the 8th inning of the Dodger's win and we left very satisfied. Service was excellent and friendly. We sat out on the picnic tables and had a great evening! No question, we will be back!!

I just want to say that Kings Road Gas Pub in Pasadena is hands down my favorite spot to stop by before any game or just to hang out with family and friends. The customer service is always top-notch--they really go out of their way to take great care of us every time. The food is consistently delicious, the drinks are always served just right, and the place is super clean, which I really appreciate. It has such a welcoming vibe that makes you want to keep coming back. I also love that they offer vegan options--I had the Impossible Burger and it was amazing! Whether you're grabbing a bite before an event or just looking for a chill place to unwind, I highly recommend it. I'll definitely be returning!

Stopped in for a quick beer while waiting for a table at a nearby restaurant. Lots of TVs and plenty of seating. Very casual spot with fast service.

Amazing food, great old school ambiance. Definitely worth a visit. Will be back next time I'm in town.

I met up with some work colleagues at Kings Row Gastropub for Happy Hour drinks and appetizers on a Thursday night. It was my first time here. I was never into the bar thing in my 20's or even later in my years. I don't drink alcohol much if at all. But most recently I've been entertaining a bad apple cider here and there. This place has good vibes. It has two entrances... one from Colorado Blvd and the other from the back alley. There are two sections to order your food and drinks from. Their menu is surprisingly quite huge for a bar. They have TVs near the bar and video games at a corner here and there plus in a special room located downstairs. They also have a water station to help those who need to flush down the booze later in the evening or those who just drink water. Btw, customer restrooms are downstairs. The restrooms near the front entrance is for employees only. Staff was fantatic. Service was excellent. Happy Hour options are fantastic. The chicken wings that had the sweet flavor was very good. I didn't try anything else as I was still stuff from my lunch. As for my drinks, one of my colleagues treated me a dry apple cider. Another colleague treated me a Mexican Lager. Thank you both. I drank all of my cider... it was very light and had a crisp taste. I only took one sip of the lager... this was okay... I'm not much of a beer drinker. However, I would like to try their blonde next time. At the end of the day, I do have to watch my alcohol consumption accordingly. Definitely a great place to hang out for food and drinks with work colleagues, friends, and family!

Love this place! Chill vibes, good cocktails and food. But they just updated their menu and god rid of some crowds favorites. Bring back the shrimp tacos, and the cauliflower nachos!

Ho it's been a while. Bar seat. Fast recommended beer Common Space, that compares to Dos Esqui XX Amber. Better. Beautiful color. Very easy to gulp. Very knowledgeable and attractive bartender. It's nice to hear her describe the beers. I love the open air bar area. Nice summer day in Pasadena. Going to try the Pizza Port. Described as Chronic Amber. Definitely hoppier than the first amber but still very tasty. Trying tequila now to get a nice afternoon buzz and to hear her talk. They ran out of the tequila she recommended but she had a little bit to let me taste it. That's service. Why haven't I been drinking here in so long?

Best nachos out there with yummy carne asada and delicious salsa. The service was excellent, love ordering from the table and paying as you go. Food and drinks are out in no time. Such a fun vibe. Love the patio!

Quick walk from parking structure which is only $1 first 2 hours. Disappointed they were out of the sour we came in to try. Nice back patio, off street.

Great outdoor seating- with TV for Dodgers game; great beer selection... Solid bar food selection- with decent options. A little bit shorthanded/disorganized at bar for ordering- but the employees there giving 110%. Will return.

Nice place to stop in and watch a soccer or football game. Hubby had a beer ( plenty to choose from) and I had the Kelsey margarita ( yummy). We didn't order food but everything I saw coming out of the kitchen looked delicious.

Here again for the 50/50 burger and a beer for my Friday "cheat day"! Always consistent with the quality of the food. I feel like the beers went up from some months ago to $9.50 from what I want to say was $7.50 but hey, this is Pasadena. Selection is on point and customer service is always great!

One the go to pubs in Old Town Pasadena. Great for post race brunch, happy hour, and live music. We've frequented Kings Row for many years. Our run crew (Pasadena Pub Run) meets next door and Kings Row juicy burgers are thee best after our run. Food, beer, cocktail, and service are always on point. We traditionally come through with a large group of runners after the Rose Bowl Half Marathon. There's nothing like a belly full of burgers and beer as a reward for a challenging race. But our all time greatest reason to party at Kings Row is to see/hear our ultimate favorite 80s cover band Past Action Heroes. IYKYK!

I'm obsessed with this spot and I literally do not come to Pasadena without stopping here. This is ALWAYS one of my first stops - the food, the drinks, the vibes, ALL OF IT! I love it. I have been here so many times since my last review but haven't updated my review. My go to is ALWAYS the chipotle honey wings. When I tell you that those the crunchiest AND juiciest wings i have ever, EVER HAD (and i eat a lot of wings), i literally mean these are the crunchiest and juiciest wings you will ever EVER have! It is unbelievable how juicy they are. I am obsessed. Well seasoned. Those also changed over the last year or so. They are crispier and tastier. The wings are $19, they are MASSIVE and you get like 6 or 7, they are so filling. I also got their fries and they are sooooo tasty!

Mostly loved that you can order and pay through a QR code. Ordered some Tator tots and a couple pale ales. Chill but lively vibe on a Saturday night.

they have a great selection of drinks, arcade games on the bottom floor near the restrooms, and multiple games on every screen. love the vibes, drinks, and service

zulma makes the best mudslide slushy. The place is beautiful good appetizers and the price is good .

You have GOT to get hooks and the high tops. There is no wear to put your purse or hang a jacket!!! Biggest pet peeve!!! All the ladies around me have there purses and phones on your tiny tables!! And then there is the safety part of a girl wants their purse in front of her!! For that reason I give you 2 stars

Great to pop in for a beer and bite to eat. I always recommend this place to friends who are looking for something more low key, but also good to go and watch games on the TVs. If that's not your scene, there's an outdoor area in the back like a little garden that's more intimate and removed from how loud it may get inside on busy days.

This place was my saving grace tonight after first stopping at TBOYLES Tavern just 3 blocks east of Lake Ave in Colorado: was dead. So I grabbed a Lyft to Rocco's Tavern; Roccos was so crowded that even cocktoaches would complain( I didn't see any either!)...so I bailed to the 35'er bar; the 35'er was butt to crotch tight! Left the 35'er fir Kings Row: no crowds breathing down my next, open tables inside and out ...just what I was looking fir this Saturday night! Current situation: sipping on my 2nd bourbon on the rocks: Stagg bourbon patio side with Debra Harry on the PA! Sweet !

Went in on a weekday and they had their heat lamps running outside. Plenty of seating in and outside. Who would've thought a breakfast burrito from a pub would be so good. Crispy tater tots, bacon, avocado, and scrambled eggs. You can literally see every ingredient and the combination of it, chef's kiss. Super friendly service and really appreciate the sides of ranch(which is made in-house). Don't think you could go wrong with any order here.

We came because it was close to Howlin' Rays chicken and we wanted a beer before going. Their website menu listed a strawberry sour ale but when we came in it was not available or out of stock. Bartender just said they didn't have it. We were a bit disappointed as that was the other reason we came. It's pretty crowded on a Sunday afternoon with lots of football on TV. Back patio was nice and it's very close to a public (cheap) parking lot. Didn't get a chance to try to food but it looked good.

Excellent place to get great food and nice selection of beers on tap . Great gastro pub vibe with shuffleboard and arcade as well

My boyfriend and I stopped by Kings Row to catch up with a friend of ours after work. They have a great selection of beer and wine, plenty of indoor and outdoor seating, and a relaxed ambiance that's perfect for a casual night. While there is a parking structure next door, we lucked out on street parking. We ordered chips and guac to share and my boyfriend got the chicken sandwich. They were what you'd expect from a gastropub on a Tuesday night. The drinks were good but it took a bit to be served, although it wasn't too crowded. Might not be our first choice but could be worth giving it another go!

So many screens, great place for watching games, service is great and drinks are reasonably priced. Honestly, best tasting Whiskey sours, my go to and favorite here.

Our favorite guilty pleasure food. The beef fat fries are amazing and the cali burrito is our favorite. The location itself has a wonderful outdoor courtyard in the back. Very fun place to go on a date.

I have been coming here for years, and the great part about this place is, it is consistent. Good drinks, good food, and simple ambience... come here to watch the game, play some pin ball, hang out with friends. Never too busy, never really a party scene, but nice to hear light music, simple but tasty food, and fast service. They have special events sometimes, i have scene live music played here on the weekends, so there is a variety of things you will be able to experience. I have only had a couple of weird interaction with the bartenders, when asking questions about drinks, and they were very short, and kind of dismissive to my question, but that has only happened or twice in the many years of coming here. Great for after work, drinks and food with friends, family or co-workers, Dragon Egg approved!

Such a great place for local beer, tasty food, and a casual seating area to enjoy the latest sports on big screen tv's on every wall. Great selection of craft beers, local and outside the area. Food is simple but very tasty and something you cannot afford to miss.

I really do enjoy this place when I'm in the mood for a drink and dive bar feel. It's not the place i would take people for a proper dinner but if I wanted to meet friends for drinks and finger foods, this is the place. The place itself is clean and the staff is polite. Menu is pretty big for a dive bar and everything so far that I've tried has been decent. Honey chipotle wings - very big wings but on the sweet and spicy side. It should be called Asian spicy wings. It gives that Asian fusion taste. Cheeseburger- decent size and not awful but not amazing. I thought it was on the salty side Fries- so good and crunchy. I love them. Quesadilla- amazing and huge, highly recommend.

Drinks were good but food was terrible! We ordered fish and chips. Two pieces of fish that looked good but they were almost all batter and very little fish. Fries were also no good and teeny tiny amount of tartar and ketchup. Very disappointing!

Haven't been here in years but probably won't be back. Food: overpriced for what it is. Buffalo wings came with 6 wings and its $19. Two shrimp tacos came out to $12 and each taco had 2 pieces of shrimp. The beer selection is good - one star. Service: One bartender was nice and gave good recommendations! The other server was not so kind. When the food came out, we received an extra burger. I explained we didn't order it. Her response? "I'll take it off the tab but you did order it." First of all, she didn't even take my order. Secondly, what is the purpose of that response? To prove that she was right? Felt bad for the workers because the AC didn't seem to be working but everyone else seemed to be kind except for her. Vibe: it is nice that there are large screens to watch sports! It does get pretty loud. I would say it is nice to come here, drink a beer, and watch a game with friends! - second star.

I'm the kind of person who scopes out the area for good restaurants/bars around a hotel where she's staying. Kings Row Gastropub looked like an easy walk from my hotel, and I was impressed by the overall reviews. I took a chance on the place and loved everything about it. Kings Row Gastropub was tucked in a little alley way between a Taiwanese drink spot and gelateria. I almost missed it, but I saw a chalk board at the end of the corridor that caught my attention peripherally. I went on a Tuesday night at 9pm, which was expectedly low key. There was still a good amount of people at the pub though. The place was cute and quaint. High table tops and a decent sized bar. Big TVs around with hockey playoffs and NBA finals. I asked for the menu, and one of the bartenders pointed over to the giant chalkboard menu on the sidewall. I was pretty hungry and wanted something satisfying yet not overbearing, so I inquired about their tacos. Straight up, I asked another bartender how the tacos were. He said they were amazing, and I kind of didn't trust him at first - not going to lie. How good could the tacos be at a gastropub? I mean, let's be real. Hats off to them though. The tacos were legit AF. I got a fried fish taco and cauliflower taco, and I would go as far as say that these could be from an upscale Mexican restaurant, The fried fish taco was massive. I ordered one, and it came with two fried pieces. I couldn't close the taco as much as I tried to. I had to take one piece out and have it standalone. The fish was so fresh out of the frier that I damn nearly burned the whole roof of the inside of my mouth trying to eat the thing. All good, I still enjoyed the taco. The fish was extra crispy on the outside but moist and flaky inside. I liked the side of salsa that added more flavor. Do yourself a favor and try the cauliflower taco. I'm serious - do not sleep on it. I found this to be better than the fish taco. The taco shell was crispy, cauliflower was flavorful and seasoned well, and the dish was loaded with the freshest, crispest chopped lettuce. Lastly, loved the nitro horchata cream ale I tried. It was so light and smooth, and I got the subtlest taste of horchata on the backend of the sip. Great beer!

Loved Kings Row! They had a live band playing, drinks were strong, and staff were very nice!

Solid spot. Shared the burger and burrito with my husband and both were good. Came to watch a football game and had plenty of tables on a Sunday night. Service was good and overall a chill good time.

I've been here a few times. It's hidden off Colorado but once you enter through the walkway it's a pretty decent space! 3 different areas- main bar area, second bar area, and then an outside patio. Bartenders are super nice. This time around ordered food - and the burgers are delicious! Fun fact - fries are fried in beef tallow.

Came in during Cheeseburger Week in pasadena to try out their Stilton Burger. Its a special menu item. This place always has the best burgers and this was no joke. The Stilton Cheese was very strong , usually not my cup of tea. However the Smash burger, special sauce and bacon muted the intense cheese and I still enjoyed it. Service from Shelley at the bar is always top notch. She was balancing a heavy crowd and my order with ease. The whole staff here is always so friendly and helpful. Ambiance here is chill, low key gastro pub in the middle of pasadena . Always a chill vibe here. Games are always on, food is top Tier and drink selection is fantastic. Got something for everyone here.

Service: 2/5 not a welcoming type of place in terms of hosts greeting you. You sorta have to just walk in and seat yourself which is fine. Once you secure a spot to sit, you have to order and pay at the front. Food Mac and cheese was delish! There's bacon in it but keep in they use velveeta cheese which the cheapest non-nutritional most chemically refined cheese one can possibly eat. I didn't know this until we started eating it. But it was sooo good. Chicken burger was just alright. Doesn't make sense why they don't serve fries with it. Drinks All were just okay

Ambiance: crowded gastropub at night, the front entrance for this place is hidden in a narrow alley, and back door patio entrances next to the parking lot Service: very slow and lack of service, no one really cleaned the tables promptly, you need to order everything from the counter, grab a number tag and your drink if any, and then they bring the rest of food to your table Food: limited choices and poor quality Mac N Cheese - *** good with bacon, but under baked and too watery taste Prime Ribeye Burger - ** Creekstone Ground Prime Ribeye, grilled onions, American and Swiss cheese, King's house sauce, pickles, tiny patty and overly cooked, lack of flavors, not even as good as in n out quality Price: low quality ingredients for food, about $24 per person for food plus drinks

They have opened the basement at Kings Row!!!! Kids are super excited, and parents can enjoy their beer while they play. Food and drinks are great here. No kids' meals, but our kids can share the chicken fingers & fries. **Update, the games half work and eats quarters. But I am sure it is a work in process.

a cool bar to hang out with friends came on a friday night and they had great live music. also, bartender diana was super cool.

Went yesterday to check out the place and try their happy hour. They have a large outdoor area and two inside bars with TVs in both rooms. There is a large selection of menu items and really good happy hour prices on food and booze. Jennie the bartender was super nice and attentive! I would have given 5 stars but the small metal bar stools are beyond uncomfortable, I had to get up twice to relieve the numbness. Please either get more comfortable barstools or put a pad on them. One more request, there is a long tequila banner strung across the top of the bar area and you cannot see the TVs clearly because of it, please relocate it.

There's quite a selection of restaurants in Downtown Pasadena, and they've got a very accentuated flair. King's Row is one of those destinations off of the beaten path that you should probably check out sooner over later. Apart from the very immaculate collection of brews available, from IPA, stouts, sours, blondes, and even margaritas, they've got a very strong but focused selection of appetizers and entrees that will have you ordering more than once. Their tater tots are EXACTLY how tater tots should be cooked. It could've done with the tiniest pinch more salt, but their texture and cloudiness inside were exemplary. I had the King's Row 50/50 burger as my entree of choice, and I was a little worried that they didn't ask me about the rarity that I wanted my meat. Turns out that worry was misplaced, I received a perfectly medium rare set of patties. The bun that they served this on, I forgot to ask if they make it in-house or if it's from a local bakery - it is so good. King's Row, you've earned your stripes from this Inland Empire dweller. I'll be back the next time I'm in Pasadena.

Diane helped host an event we had for work. She was so easy to work with and she gave us a private room without us asking. Prices were great and so was the food and service. Highly recommend!

Great happy hour menu, which runs on weekdays from 3-6 pm. Here's what we ordered: Cheeseburgers at $7 Fries $3 Onion strings $3 Nachos $5 Michelada $8 The cheeseburgers were good and tasted like an elevated version of McDonald's. I mean that in the best way possible because it actually tasted better than that fast food spot. Fries were cooked to perfection, extra crispy. The nachos were ok but had thicc pieces of avocado which saved the dish. The michelada was refreshing and bubbly. The service was also friendly and attentive. The only thing I didn't like was how hot it was in there. Bartender advised it was cooler in the dining room and had the AC on. I don't know what the restaurant think they had running but it wasn't the AC cuz the whole time we sat there sweating like a couple of thots in church.

The food at this Gastropub was quite a surprise! This cheeseburger was delicious! It reminded me of an elevated Quarter Pounder with cheese. Pair with their tater tots and you won't be disappointed. They even make their own ketchup. Great outdoor seating with TVs.

I came specifically to watch the Champions League 1/8 game, but they don't have any channels that broadcast the game. Shame.

Service, selection, food, and drinks were great. Noticed they had games for children on lower level. Nice outdoor patio.
