I literally had time…read morefor one beer here because I spent precious time looking at their tap list and cooler and being impressed-which is never really a waste of time. While they don't have food you can bring your own food in and there's board games aplenty and they had bar trivia going on during my visit. The host tried to get me to sign onto the app-that's how it started but I arrived too late so he gave me a hard copy answer sheet and let me play a round. Service was good, they let me take my time in ordering a beer and were quick to cash me out when I got paged. I'd like to come back and experience it in full.

I'm a firm believer in supporting local businesses and keeping our Old Town vibrant, which is why…read moreour group chose The Pour House for a social with 30+ people -- some traveling from Soledad and the Monterey Peninsula to enjoy our Downtown Salinas! We covered drinks in honor of Boss's Day. Service was ok -- the couple running the place were attentive, though they preferred to point you to QR codes over talking directly to you (not my favorite). Unfortunately, the customer service judgment was a bit poor. When we politely asked to lower the music briefly for a short announcement, we were told it "wouldn't be fair to other customers." There were only a few others there, five perhaps and not deeply engaged in listening to music. A small act of courtesy could've gone a long way. Old Town Salinas thrives when businesses and community support each other.

We came for a pre-dinner drink. The server (owner?) was also very sweet and was helping us look up places to have dinner nearby. They have a huge selection of beers, ciders, seltzers, etc. My partner got a kombucha, and I just got a non-alcoholic light beer. The interior is like, industrial chic? Is that a thing? In any case, I like.

Their drinks are delicious and the presentation is very thoughtful. The decor is striking and definitely picturesque.

I don't know her personally, but I always feel welcomed. We will definitely keep going!

The house band, Eco Musical, is excellent, and they play a variety of songs every Saturday night, starting at 8:00 p.m. The staff is friendly, security is good, and there is plenty of parking in the rear. If you like regional Mexican music, dancing, and a great, friendly atmosphere, you will LOVE it here!

Menu it appears they're willing to change by trend. We all had burgers, but we double burgers or split burgers. Soda is refilled, except handcrafted sodas. In the future; might want to research seasonal coleslaw or broccoli-slaw for change up of side menu salads. Other: fried or steamed vegs as possible finger food. Portion side, it was expected. Shio liked the bacon melt leftover. I found out what was missing alfalfa sprouts made taste elevated. Not sure if they would add pan fry egg as optional item. Server was good, he explained things better, and ambiance wasn't too noisy to hear him. Server did say you can seating arrangement is up to customers. Noon time on Saturday seems like less busy, my brother was telling us, hard to get in, reserve spot, and appears like that way only if there was a live game it said so in commercials. Packed to where ppl were waiting in line get in. They do work hard making place clean. Thank you for the good food it was yummy. Edited at desktop, mobile doesn't allow much for spellcheck. Note: 1-star rating ppl might have gone when it was live game. Suggestion go when it's lunch or game days are re-played. Patience is a virtue, try to eat more when you go out. There is ton of food on menu besides the wings.

I'm extremely disappointed with how we were treated. We've been regular customers, and this…read moreexperience completely changed how we view this place. Someone in our group took a photo behind the bar, and instead of handling the situation professionally, the bartender immediately became rude and escalated things. We were asked to leave, which is one thing--but what made the situation worse was that my card was still swiped and we were never served any drinks. After that, the bartender continued talking about us and involved another bartender, which turned into an unnecessary scene and got us kicked out. The interaction felt disrespectful, targeted, and completely unprofessional. If there was an issue with taking a picture, that could have been communicated respectfully instead of creating a hostile situation. As regulars, we expected better treatment and better customer service.

I've been to a lot of bars in my life, some of the "diviest" bars in America…read more There is a lady that bartends at night at the Kings Den that is one of the absolute worst bartenders I've ever experienced in my entire life. Zero bartending etiquette. She argues with patrons, she argues with her coworkers, I honestly don't really even know why she works there. The other guy has to tolerate her, and they appear to argue in front of patrons - it's not cute. He just stands there, staring at patrons as they sit waiting for drinks while the line gets longer and longer. Bartending is clearly not their jam. They have no signature cocktails, and the cocktails they do make are pretty bad. The karaoke is pretty egregious, it's like a guy who likes to sing poorly decided he wanted to set up karaoke just so he had a reason to sing sometimes and make other people listen to it. It's a dive bar, which in itself isn't bad. But it's like if you were driving through the bad part of Bakersfield and said "this place looks cool" and then stopped for a drink and then realized that it's Bakersfield but it's not. It's actually Salinas. You go here because you NEED to, because there's nothing else open, and then when this place closes you go to Jaime's. It's the second worst Salinas has to offer, and I'm saying that with optimism.
