First visit and it was great and delicious. I was craving breakfast for dinner. The wait staff was amazing Emma Rose and Naomi. Staff were so patient with us and gave us great recommendations for drinks and our entrees. I always go for pancakes and they didn't disappoint. Light and tasty buttermilk pancakes with a side of crispy bacon. Nice and chill, family friendly vibe on a Saturday evening not too loud or rowdy. No big game night but I heard it's fun in those nights with locals. Indoor and outdoor seating, music and many TV screens. Reasonable prices, generous portions and fast service. Will definitely return. read more

I'm giving it 3 stars based on the type of food you get at a sports grill! I've seen a lot of mixed reviews but it's like people expect this elevated experience at a sports grill which isn't realistic. If you want typical sports bar food - flavorful, hearty, greasy, then that's what you get here! I got a blackened chicken sandwich and it was just as I expected. Maybe I'd ask for lettuce also next time but it was good! My kids got wings and mozzarella sticks which were also good. The mozzarella sticks were a bit overdone, some the cheese was totally melted out, but overall decent. My husband loved his Philly. We also got pretzels with cheese, super buttery, but still tasted good. Also the wedge fries were like sooooo buttery. And I love butter but dang a bit much. Service was great everyone was so nice! Also had a yummy espresso martini. I def want to go back for breakfast and maybe earlier in the day in general bc I'd love to give this place a higher rating. read more

Food is pretty mediocre at best. The service here is non existent. Our server too forever to even greet us, we sat at the table for over 10 minutes before anyone even acknowledged we sat down. We ordered a michelada but all that came out was a regular beer. Everything we ordered, came out extremely slow and wrong. Our server was no where to be found. We even were sitting right in the middle of service. We would ask for assistance, and employees would tell us they weren't our server. We were also charged $150 for 15 wings which was very ridiculous. read more

Met up with some friends for some refreshments and snacks at Cronies. We popped in on a Friday late afternoon just in time for happy hour that was from 3-6pm where select cocktails, beer and wine can be had at discounted price. Plus a selection of food items. On a Friday late afternoon, the bar was really filling in. By five, the inside was pretty packed with large parties of guest. If you don't want to sit inside, the bar also offers a large patio area. Plenty of free parking in lot directly in front of the bar. read more

I had a lot of fun here last night. My friends and family and I got together here to watch the Seattle Seahawks play against the San Francisco 49ers. I wasn't quite sure what type of places was before I arrived. It is definitely a locals spot. Located very conveniently just off of the freeway, it is in a good size strip mall that includes other businesses like donut, shops, the bank, other small restaurants, I believe I saw a nail salon too. It is definitely not a trendy or fancy place. When we arrived, I noticed that most people at the sports bar were wearing jerseys or they were very comfortable in T-shirts and sweatshirts. Kids are definitely welcome. They have both inside and outdoor patio seating. We got lucky and did not have to wait for a table. This place fills up pretty quickly for games. Their decor is mostly made up of either neon lights mounted on the wall to advertise their beer, offerings or it is sports memorabilia. Their menu is not going to give you a tremendous amount of variety of things, but there are plenty of offerings. I can't say that I saw any vegetarian options here besides salads but they do have all of your classic bar food and appetizer type of offerings. They have fries, tater tots, curly fries, potato skins, all the different ways you could make cook or really want potatoes. They have burgers and other sandwiches. They have chicken wings of all different flavors. They have salads, although I didn't really look at their offerings too much. They also have a pretty good size kids menu. Our family ordered nachos and Irish nachos. One of the kids had the mini corn dogs and tater tots. Everything that I tried was tasty. Personally, I felt that the chicken wings that we got were a little too salty. But then again, I have a very sensitive palette and I don't need much salt in my food. The flavor of chicken wings that we got was a garlic, lemon pepper I believe. Again, very tasty. But for me, just a little too salty. I loved how Light and crispy their tater tots were. Their beer is served in large goblets. Their sodas and other non-alcoholic drinks tend to be served in large paper cups with lids on them. And of course, I mentioned the fact that there are lids on these cups because I have kids. I know how important a detail that can be. Anyway, the servers were all very friendly. You can tell they are all very accustomed to large parties and having to split checks 10,000 different ways. The servers are very attentive and actually if you come here I have a feeling it will be helped by several of them and not just one that starts out with you. It's definitely a very friendly family, local sort of place. We had a lot of fun. read more

so good! we came here for breakfast on Saturday and it was amazing. I had the waffle egg and bacon combo. They were so sweet and brought my egg and bacon first which I enjoyed and then brought out the waffle later so I could eat that while it was hot. I have to say I love the Mak drink the best watermelon Margarita!! get it in a schooner. it's worth every penny also eating on the patio is just so much fun and watching all the kids come in donning their sports unforms, just really made my day. Fun times. read more

Summary: This is a staple in Simi valley. Great drink and good food. Food: i always get the reuben sandwich. Honestly this is the mist delicious reuben ive had. Sauerkraut is great and just in general a very delicious sandwich. Drink: they have good beers on tap. My personal favorite is the madewwest Ipa. Atmosphere: staff is nice and its a great restaurant. Biggest downside is having to find your own seat. I went in saint patties say and i has to box out some peeps to get my seat. Otherwise its great. Overall: if you are in simi and need a nice meal then go to cronies. Get the reuben and thank yourself for making the correct choice in food. read more

Was meetings some friends for a bourbon sampling and decided to stop by Cronies for a bite to eat. Don't know how to describe the vibe but it was a bit over the top. I sat inside and there was a group that may have been coordinating the FFL draft. Any way they were loud and dropping F Bombs like nothing. Waitress was rushed and I would say not to interested in making me feel welcome. Not rude just not very engaging. Maybe because I am not a regular? The Ruben sandwich was good. Plenty of thinly sliced meat, with a tangy dressing on crisp rye. Order it with Tater Tots. Overall mid road experience. read more

Came with the kids and wife here. It's not bad. The service was good, and everyone was very friendly. We got a burger, wings and fish tacos. The kids got two kids meals. Hate to say it, but if you go to Chilis - you can get everything we got for less. Otherwise couldn't ask for more. read more

Was alright,typical sports bar. Our company made it so much better than it really was. Had to wait 35mins for a beer. Yes it was busy but not that busy. Appetizers were good just not big enough, sandwiches were pretty good ( could have been better) Best thing was the Dodgers were playing read more

Shame on you cronies staff (girls)! As being locals of Simi we take pride in supporting our small businesses. Not no more here. Me and my family came here early today for lunch and drinks to celebrate a birthday and we hit total rudeness and also had the feeling of being discriminated! This must be a whites only bar. I get it if the girls were having a bad but no apology and again because we love our town and we know servers depend on there hrly rate and tips we still tipped but this is the last time we will be supporting you CRONIES! Maybe you'll get the same treatment else where and you'll know how it feels read more

We have been regulars at Simi Valley Cronies since they opened. We have always had excellent service and wonderful memories with friends and family dining here. Today they went above and beyond. We came in with a large party of 14 after church on Football Sunday. The hostess and manager worked hard to accommodate us and put together tables and chairs to make it work. Service by Karly and Stephanie was outstanding. The manager checked on us frequently to make sure we had everything that we needed. We really appreciate you all for taking such good care of us. read more

I wasn't expecting too much from a small bar in Simi Valley but I was surprised by how friendly service was, how fast our food came despite it being packed, how the food actually being good! The drinks are MASSIVE by the way which made it a fun surprise for us as first timers. It has an indoor and outdoor space so it's great for big groups, massive parties, or outings for the team. read more

First visit here. And before I get to the rest of a review I need to compliment the wonderful service we received, it was great. The decor was typical sports bar, no surprises there, even the hand carved graffiti in the mens room spoke to the usual clientele. My only mistake was trying something unique, chorizo and eggs, in a place where chicken fried steak or bacon and eggs is the usual breakfast fare. My chorizo was tasteless and they have no idea what home fries should look like. So my breakfast was only two stars at best. On the bright side, their iced tea was perfection. In fact, between the tea and the wonderful service, I am making what would have been a three star review into four stars instead. I intend to give the place another try and order something else; I knew I should have tried a breakfast sandwich. read more

So disappointed in this location. me and my dad had gone in and there was no seats inside so we went back outside and had found a seat in the corner and after 15 min of not getting seen we had seen a server and she had made eye contact with my dad and another 5 minutes went by and we still didn't get a server to us.. so after 20 min we had grabbed our stuff and left.. do better cronies simi valley! This is not right and fair!! read more

PROS: the wings were great CONS: Everything else THE SERVICE was horrible! But it was jut our server and the runner who was unable to smile apparently. The others that came to help were super nice. The patty melt had ZERO flavor and all of the fries were cold that were served with every dish. There were 5 or 6 dishes that came out with cold fries. It was my first and LAST time! But that service.....ugh read more

The food was pretty good but as they say in France, the services was Phonies! We asked the waitress to turn on the ceiling fan and she forgot. We asked for extra syrup for the pancakes. She forgot and never came back. And it took a long time to get our food even though it wasn't really busy. The best thing I can say about our waitress is that she had a smile on her her face and was very nice during the very brief time she was at our table. She spent most of her time sitting at the bar chatting with another customer. So, if zombies were taking over the world and Cronies was one of the last places standing, I would eat there. Otherwise I don't plan on going back there anytime soon. read more

I visited this location for the very first time as I've typically gone to the other locations in the past. My dad decided he wanted to try something different and was pleasantly surprised with the spectacular service we received here personally, getting the thirsty turkey is always my go to, but, the breakfast items certainly hit the spot if you're coming in for brunch time. Whether you're getting a soda or a beer, their signature, frozen schooners make any drink, choice an awesome decision here. One of my favorite things is being able to get a nice, cold glass, especially if it's a hot day or a long day. This is your typical sports bar, and can get crowded very easily. This is always a great place to come with small or big groups whether you're trying to catch a game or just wanting to hang out. Solid sports bar all around. read more

You have to know what you're getting yourself into, it's a local pub. Don't expect the food to be good, however they give you a generous pour of beer. I'd say the 3 star average is accurate. Would only come here for drinks and maybe apps. read more

It was our first time here on 3-2-24 and we were pleasantly surprised. We normally go to the junkyard because they have great food and a huge menu but we wanted to try this place today. It was really crowded but the service and food was amazing. Our waitress Sarah was super friendly she helped us out with our food choices and our beer choices. We will defiantly be back to try more beers and food. read more

I was in the area and it was near lunch time. I stopped in and sat down at the bar. I had a Stella and ordered a BLT with Fries and a side of ranch while watching the Dodgers game. The location is very nice, the staff is very friendly and helpful. The food was very good and the beer was very cold. Lots of TVs to watch all your sports. When my bill arrived, it only had 3 beers when I actually had 4 beers. I had the server make the adjustment and also, my BLT wasn't on the bill either and I also had that added. I fun day and I will be back. read more

Our entire team was treated to elite status by Luke Z. An amazing waiter who made sure our order was right and provided excellent service.

Definitely the worst dining experience my wife and I ever had!!! I'm not saying I've never had a bad dining experience before but this one was the worst! My wife and I were promptly seated and our order was taken quickly, but everything went south after that. We ordered an appetizer which never arrived, so we cancelled it after our food arrived. My order was correct but my wife's order was not. She promptly went to let staff know, but instead of receiving an apology for the mistake, she was given attitude by one of the staff members. She returned to our table and waited for her food. Instead of enjoying a meal together, I was forced to eat first so that my meal would not get cold. After 15 minutes had passed she decided to cancel her meal so we could leave and get some food elsewhere. When she cancelled her order she again got attitude from staff. Finally they agreed to cancel her order for food she never received correctly. And when I went to pay I was being charged for an Ice Tea that my wife was going to drink with her food. The staff member seemed very confused when I explained that my wife didn't drink the tea because she never got her food. After finally having the iced tea removed and being told that they were not going to charge me for my wife's meal (again) I receive my total and find out I was extra for wedge fries i ordered with my meal. I was floored because at no point did our server informed me of this when I placed my order. At this point I was tired, disappointed, and very upset, so I didn't argue and just paid my bill. I have no problem paying for great food and service, but when everything is bad, it's hard to justify spending any money there. If you're looking for good service, great food, and not getting ripped off, stay away from this place. read more

It's a shame this has been our go to pace for a year but today was awful. Got here at 11:30 to put my name in for a table and had several people sat ahead of me and then the hostess announces that it is open seating with a list still running and people out front. Saw people out their name sun after us and get sat first. Moral of the story if you do t have an in you are going to get skipped read more

Come here once a year to catch up with friends, always a great decision. I asked for a white claw and got this massive 24oz. But I can't complain about that! The little daddy is pretty big, I'm scared to see the big daddy burger. It has pastrami, bacon, and a burger patty. So delicious, will definitely order again. Fries were ok, almost to crunch for me. They always have a great service, and lots of tvs to watch your favorite game. Definitely a sports bar vibe, just over all fun place to go. read more

We've been to Cronies several times this football season. The first two times, we met a couple of friends and enjoyed breakfast offerings. The restaurant was adapted to COVID-19 guidelines, with plentiful tables under tented roofs outside in the parking lot / sidewalk area. Our first experience was decent, with fresh breakfast entrees that got the job done of filling empty stomachs. The coffee was surprisingly good, for a "grill" that lives on serving frosty schooners of beer to their sports enthusiast customers. Service was friendly and struck the balance of keeping everyone fed while also not hovering during the 3 hours of a game's playing time. At the time, I'd have given a four star rating. The second time it dropped to a three star experience. The food wasn't quite as appealing for some reason, and there were some adjacent patrons that were descending into drunkenness, which was uncomfortable to watch (at 11:00 in the morning!). It's not totally on the restaurant, but it just stopped feeling family-friendly. The noise volume get really high, too. The third time, it was just Dear Hubby and me, and it was was a game later in the day. Again, the number of other guests over-imbibing in massive amounts of beer became a distraction to just trying to watch our team play. I do give high marks to their tots. They come out of the kitchen perfectly prepared, fluffy and tasty. The order is so generous that I normally take half or more home to enjoy later in the week. They do a very generous pour for cranberry juice. Options for the designated drive are juices, coffee, or sodas, or fountain lemonade. Their servers are always moving, and usually very friendly. They've made big efforts to provide as safe an atmosphere as possible during 'VIT times, with socially distanced tables, mask-wearing, sanitizing surfaces, and serving some of the food in disposable containers. They do have many TV's going to optimize the options for watching games. We'll probably give them another try before the season winds down. read more

The food was average, but probably because it was kept under a heat lamp to long. The service was horrible. Our waitress spent more time cleaning the bar area than providing service to her tables. It was. 25 minutes between each time we saw her. $150 for 3 people and she treated us like an inconvenience. Will never go back. The dining area and patio were nice for a sports bar. read more
