She made a yummy Tito's Martini for me. I was impressed right from the start. She made my martini, then she noticed something wrong, she poured it out and started all over with a new glass. Now that's good service and attention to detail. Kieran delivered my order of the pork belly popcorn. OMG, what a delicacy. It was sprinkled with Parmesan and sautéed jalapeños. It was accompanied with red pepper aioli & hot sauce. The pork belly was crunchy and rich, the sauces flavorful. What a Treat! Try. It you'll like it! Friday nights they have live music inside. Friday & Saturdays they have Karaoke in the back patio.

We've been to The Pour House twice now, for the live music and the fun, laid-back atmosphere. If…read moreyou're looking for a true Bakersfield local hangout, this is it. The dive bar vibe is exactly what you'd hope for, and everyone from the servers to the bartenders is incredibly friendly and welcoming. The food is a bit more of a mixed bag. The menu is pretty limited, with no plant-based options. I ordered the Fettuccine Alfredo, and while it was very cheesy and comforting, it really just needed a generous amount of black pepper to bring the flavors to life. My husband had the Chicken Alfredo and enjoyed it. He also ordered the clam chowder, which he said had good flavor, but it arrived cold enough that the bowl could have used a little warming before it was served. For us, The Pour House isn't really about the food, it'sabout the experience. Great live music, a relaxed neighborhood feel, good drinks, and genuinely awesome people behind the bar make it a place we'll happily come back to on Friday nights. If you're looking for a casual spot to grab a drink, listen to some music, and enjoy one of the friendliest crowds in Bakersfield, it's definitely worth checking out.

I was cautious at first because it looks sketchy from the outside, but so far I haven't had any issues. The crowd consists of locals that go there regularly. So far, the people I've met out there have seemed cool and friendly. It's usually Bri (or Bree - not sure how she spells it) when I stop in. She's been nothing but cool and nice since I've been going. Very down to earth. She's always on top of things and I never had to wait too long for a drink, even when she's swamped she still checks to see if people are good on drinks. They got a wide selection of booze at dive bar prices. There's 2 pool tables as well as a juke box. They don't serve food, but they do sell snacks like bags of chips. Would be nice if they had more TV's since they only have 1 on the side wall. I try to stop by once or twice a week when I'm in town. It's a solid place to unwind, have a drink, shoot some pool or shoot the BS with the locals. Cheers!

Tiki Ko is constantly holding weekly meet-ups for tiki bar fans and I highly recommend the Explorers Club on Tuesday if you are looking for something to do during the week!

Haven't been in here for probably 15 years. It's changed- a bit. I love Tiki bars and I go to every…read moreTiki bar I can find. It's tiny- like a lot of tiki spots. Decor is nice. Little hidden gems. Lighting is dark with bits color and neon popping through. The Bar Top curves around the bar- there are two booths that seat 5-6 and two short tables next to them- one seats 4- the other will comfortably seat two. There are a few bench style seating areas at the front with some short coffee tables. Think- skater tiki bar. The drinks were good- small menu if you're not sure what you want or are new to tiki. Both sides of the menu are the same menu. There are some nice mocktail options as well- you don't see that often. The service for me is mixed- it wasn't busy- steady but not busy- 1/4 full. I ordered two drinks to start for our table- (no cocktail servers here/not unusual for a small Tiki bar) I asked for a soda water- the bartender looked at me without a word- popped open a can of soda water and walked away. When he walked back by, I asked for a glass of ice- he said nothing and I got an eye-roll huff. I almost left. I don't think providing a glass with ice to pour your canned room temp soda water in, is too wacky an idea to be perturbed by the request. The female who took the order was friendly, smiled and was professional. We got a third cocktail- the Mai Tai. The grumpy bartender was friendlier this time. So, that helped. Maybe he felt overwhelmed and I threw off his groove by asking for water- then a glass... either way- being annoyed wasn't cool. The music.... Wasn't Tiki- it threw off the "Tiki Vibe" and made it feel typical small local bar that serves only Tiki drinks with some Tiki decor. It didn't take you to the land of Tiki- disappointed. Drinks were good.

Around the dining area are a bunch of TV's with all of your old time favorites. That is if you are from the 60's on. I ordered the fish n chips. It came with 3 filets with were friend to perfection. Someone the absolute best I've had in Bakersfield. The coleslaw could've been made by my mom from Georgia. I was a great Southern Slaw. The fries were cooked perfectly. A nice crunch but yet a little soft center. After dinner we had to hit the ice cream. The once Scherbs that was known to be at Brookside by Cal State then City Sandwich has it's home in Honey I'm and has been for a while. All in all it was a great experience and delicious dinner.

Service was fast, staff was pleasant so everything was fantastic! So far, food has been good and I definitely will come back. It's way on the other side of town for me, but it's nice seeing lots of brunch options in Bakersfield these days. Breakfast is my absolute favorite meal of the day, so it's nice to know I have another option. There's lots of parking which is a plus, the other places struggle with parking which makes it hard to visit. Restaurant looks clean, it looks family oriented and they have tons of options for the family. They have tons of tables too, so there's room for everyone. The place stays busy so you know the food is fresh and they keep your coffee cup filled. I'm not sure how long this has been here since I barely visited last year, but if you haven't stopped by you definitely need to check it out.
