Editorial review from Citysearch 2/4/2014

Great place to come get a drink with friends. It's really packed and busy during the weekend at nights. Don't expect to get a table. The place has a great vibe and crowd. more

Drinking by the numbers 5/11/2008

On a Sat night this place gets crowded. A lot of people were here in groups of 4-6 eating dinner. There was no line when we got here, and there is no cover because it's a restaurant. But because it's a restaurant there is no room to mingle. There are 2 pool tables and a foosball table in the place and an outdoor smoking patio. Here is a price break down: shot of crown royal $7.50 , miller light (draft) $5 , rum & coke $6.50 Pros: Quick friendly bartendars, lots of close parking, no line, no cover charge Cons: crowded, pricey drinks, Pasadena Police Department more

Avoid it 4/17/2008

This place didn't meet my expectations...!! i met some friends that stay in pasadena but It took over 30 mins to get service and the waiter got my order wrong. To top it off the food wasn't all that, I'm sorry but i wouldn't recommend this place at all. As for me i will never go there again more

Terrible Food/Terrible Service 10/19/2007

Went with a friend on a busy Sunday morning during football season, so it was understandable that it would take a while to get seated. However once we were finally seated (in the dark, dungeon-like basement), the table we were seated at was sticky and dirty. The two waitresses working the basement didn't know who had our table, so we had to wait for them to decide who was going to take our order. Once we finally had our order taken, the food took forever to come out. When it finally did come out, the french toast was soggy and luke warm, the eggs cold and the ""real maple syrup"" was a packet of Aunt Jamama. Overall, a terrible experience. It looks like they spend more money on the television equipment than they do on the quality of their food and waitstaff. Pros: Probably good if you're going for Sunday football and beer. Cons: Terrible breakfast, slow and uninterested waitstaff, dirty tables. more

Avoid This Place 4/15/2007

TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN\r \r We went to eat and drink at Beanery's Pasadena location last night for the first time. \r Unfortunately we encountered the most racisst waitress (table 10 around 12:35 AM Saturday \r night/sunday morning, blonde and 5-3 - 5-7"" tall) we have ever encountered (maybe because we are \r indian looking). We have have been in the US for more than 5 years. But this waitress \r treated us like we do not understand difference a burnt pizza or a normal pizza. Her tone \r towards us was derogatory. This thing is messed up. We talked to the manager 2 times. Hope he \r does something about this. We did not and do not want the free coupon that they guys gave \r us. All we want is no racism. We want understanding. We will wait to see if anything is done. \r \r hemant Cons: The Waitress more

One of Kind 11/12/2006

We've been going here every sunday for the last month since network TV no longer shows the game we are interested in seeing. Every week its the same problem. The host/hostess are incapable of seating people in a timely fashion. You may wait in a line for over 10 minutes before they will even greet you. Once you get seated, most of the servers are nice enough and do a decent job. Sometimes you have to remind them that you wanted extra lemons. The menu is just overwhelming. There are too many different options and the only thing that leads to is mediocre food. The only reason to go to this place is if you get there early enough and the hosts can seat you before the game starts, you can generally get a table with your own TV. more

Great spot for wings and things 11/4/2006

Busy on football days... 9/24/2006

Went on a Sunday afternoon - packed with football fans, but decent food for a bar, and a fun atmosphere. Pleasant and attentive waitress too. I would go back again... more

Disgusting food, poor service, worse management 9/13/2006

Met a friend for lunch at Barney's in Pasadena on a Saturday afternoon. After standing around and not being seated or acknowleged for 5 minutes we just grabbed a booth. A waitress finally came to take our order, but she forgot about our drink orders. My friend ordered a pizza burger and THERE WAS AN INCHWORM CRAWLING ON THE BUN. We have cameraphone photos of it. We immediately complained to the manager and she just apologized and told us that we wouldn't have to pay for the meal! She blamed the restaurant's food supplier for the worm and didn't even offer to replace the food. We are never returning here again! more

WORST FOOD AND SERVICE 8/20/2006

IF YOUR LOOKING FOR A BAD MEAL AND THE WORST SERVICE THIS IS THE PLACE FOR YOU...\r NOT TO MENTION THE DRUNK, LOUD AND ANNOYING PATRONS! Pros: THE DECOR WAS THE ONLY WORTH WHILE PART OF THE EXPERIENCE- Cons: EVERYTHING more

Horrible Service 7/29/2006

rude and indifferent servers.\r \r if you want to be treated like you\r don't matter, or even like you're\r less than human?\r Then this is the place for you! more

Cool on Thursdays 6/22/2004

This place is pretty cool. Lines are not insane on a Thursday. Good mellow crowd having a good time. The upstairs bar and pool tables are a good place to get some air from dancing downstairs. They have a walkway on top of the dancefloor which girls dance on. Use your imagination... Drinks are not too pricey. For the draw, they don't try to stick it to you. Pros: Atmosphere, Cool crowd more

Great place to hang out... 7/12/2002

This place is one of the best bars in old town to hang out. plenty of pool tables and plenty of cool people to play with. more

Great atmosphere to rack 'em up 7/1/2002

This is a classy place where the nicely dressed rack em up in Pasadena. Try the mid-level pool table on an island of it's own, with comfy furniture and cool lighting. Also check out the upstairs bar - very cozy place to talk. The staff has a slight attitude but everything else is very inviting. more
