Strip mall ish but conveniently located to the hotel next door. The bartender was great and she served drinks with a smile. Food was typical bar food so nothing exciting there. Karaoke had a great host and some excellent talent. I will return if I'm back in town. read more

The service here is horrible. There is only one person doing all the work (a shorter blond girl) while two older ladies gabbbed behind the bar. We sat there for a good 20 minutes before the older lady took our order and the food itself was okay. We have been there before and every time we get the older lady as a server, it is horrible . Like you could walk to bagger daves, order something.. wait for it.. walk back and STILL get faster service. read more

This was my first time to the Pine Valley Bar & Grill. I was pleased with the spacious area, comfortable seating, professional service and good food. The facility is set in the back of the strip mall. There is plenty of strong signage so it is easy to find. The inside is very large. The booth seating is very comfortable. I was pleased with how clean things were at the end of a busy night. The bar was buzzing with conversation. The TV's weren't too loud. The Juke Box can be loud once it gets going. For dinner I had the wings in BBQ sauce. The wings were a moderate size. Not many small wings but none that were big. In general the wings had a moderate amount of meat to them. They were fried and bathed in sauce. The frying was appropriate. The wings were fully cooked without being dry nor too greasy. At times the wings were a bit over crispy. The BBQ sauce was really good. It had a sweet taste without a strong BBQ kick. read more

For many years we have gone to pine valley bar and grill for our retirement parties. When we planned one recently and called to confirm they told us they had changed their policy and wanted everyone put on one bill using one credit card. This would have been a nightmare with over 30 people. But what was even worse was the fact they did not call to notify us of this change in their policy. read more

Best Service in the United States! Legit! I travel all over and they have such great food; however, the service is the ABSOLUTE best!!!!! Tonight I tried their Mexican and I can say,....... MEXICAN.....CAN!!!! Amazing!!! The owner is awesome too which is rare to find!!! You should come here FOR SURE!!!! read more

Awesome service with an incredibly friendly smile! The people I met here made me feel like a friend. The atmosphere is very inviting. Definitely a place to go if you need a smile! read more

We have been here several times with no issues. Last week, my husband and I went for our date night and sat at the bar. We ordered our food and waited. I saw they were busy so I didn't say anything after 30 min, but when it was almost an hour I asked where our appetizer was and possibly our food. After I asked & even stated that everyone around who had sit down 30 min after had already received their food. The waitress was snotty and said she wasn't dealing with this tonight and started to yell at me. So I told her that's fine cancel the food, and we will pay for the drinks that got. The waitress started yelling at me. The owner Irene then said she was dealing with this and told us to leave. I will say this after 15 years, I will not be back. You need to teach your waitresses respect for your customers and to not yell at a customer who is only asking about their food. Your customers are who make your business. She made me feel like it was my fault that they were busy, and also that she had forgot to put my order in. All she had to do was say I'm sorry I forgot your order and we have been really swamped, why don't I get you free refills why you wait. The fact that the owner didn't put the waitress in her place at that moment made me never to want to go back there. I think the owner needs to know when to say when! You have lack of help and the help that you do have has a very nasty mouth and some waitresses have lack of clothing. Not someplace I want to go to go with my husband for a date night read more

Typically not overly busy. Drinks are tasty and there are three things here that we like to order. One is the blue gill because hey, where else can you get bluegill? Another is the bacon sandwich because it is a very generous portion of crispy bacon on toasted, thick bread that is sauced as texas toast is. The third is their burgers . Nothing unusual, just a tasty, juicy burger. The place is located in a strip mall, but that should not be a deterrent to trying this local bar for a casual meal. read more

I was really hoping this place would go against the actual rating and that I would get great service... That was not the case.. Environment: this was your average bar scene with booths, tables and tvs! Nothing to far out of the ordinary. Service: horrible.. This was probably the worst service if had in a long time. We were seated.. Then our first drink orders were taking while she gave us our food menu. Well that was the only time we saw her come to our table. She went to others over and over but for some reason we were not even looked at. She returned roughly 20 min later so I told her I just want the check because God I or knew how long it would have taken to get our food. I saw the two waitresses talking and laughing but no one was coming to help us. Poor poor job Food: didn't get any because they took way too long. Highly highly unrecommended read more

Just finished a great meal with great service. Coldest beer in town, great food especially the sausage rolls and salads!! Highly recommend.

This place is okay for 11 o'clock at night after you just drove for three hours. Obviously popular with the locals who are in their 40's & 50's: folks still living in the 80's. There was a red-headed with large poofy hair lady talking to the older bartender when we walked in. They were talking like Sorority sisters squealing & squawking. The kitchen is open late which is great for road trippers. I got the mushroom Swiss & bacon burger. It came out hot & fresh, but I had to ask for lettuce and tomato. No real complaints here; solid meal for a dive bar. My bf got the ribs & chicken wings dinner. This comes with two sides. He got the fries and rice which were both good sides. The wings, however, were reheated and dry. The ribs were good, tender, just too much sauce. So if you order the ribs, ask for them to go light on the sauce. The sauce on the wings was true to the name for "medium": not too spicy or too mild. Drinks are allright. A reasonable selection of beer. The mixed drinks can be light. Overall, not bad for a dive bar. Prices are reasonable. Service is not bad nor good. Atmosphere is classic for a hole. P.S. They have (bad) karaoke on Friday nights. read more

We love pine valley! Have been coming here for years! Love the owners and staff. Great atmosphere! Family owned and ran business that has great crowds on the weekends. They have your standard bar food that includes great wings and pizza. The music selection is right up your alley If you love the rock hits of the 70s and 80s. The booze is very affordable and the bar is a great place to sit and toss a few back! Give it a try next time you're riding on DuPont Rd. They also frequently have karaoke nights if that is something that interests you. read more

Stiff pour. Friendly. Nice crowd. All the salty popcorn my little heart desired. If I ever find myself in town again, I'd go back.

We got takeout, good service, food ready in 15 minutes, potato skins large and cheesy, very good, Italian grinder very tasty as well. Great food. read more

Bartender who works Sat night sucks. Was treated very rudely for no reason when I walked in her with 5 people all ordering drinks and shots. She should learn better customer service will not be coming back and will let the rest of my group I came with (23 people) not to come spend their money here because of the rude service. If she don't like people get a new job. I myself are a bartender this is not how u treat people. read more

Might be the worst bar in town. Bad service, lousy drinks, etc. I think the food is ok, but the hard part is ordering and getting service. My dad and I used to bring friends here but lately Irene, one of the owners has treated customers with no respect and sometimes downright nasty. Bars are dime a dozen, were finding a new spot... If I were you I would go elsewhere. read more

This place is dead to me. If there are only a few people in the bar you should be OK, but if they are jammin' and busy expect to be treated like dirt. You could spend $1000's of dollars here and be known by name, but when the owner is stressed out and overwhelmed you can expect the staff to be as well. The estrogen level goes up and all of the women synchronize being pissed off. You get your food thrown at you and asking for another beer is akin to asking for a mountain to be moved. Be sure to "reserve" your table ahead of time for a big event! It's a fancy service that Pine Valley provides. If you don't reserve and you "accidentally" sit in a reserved area, the owner will come out and tell you to get the hell out of the reserved table after you have been sitting there for a half hour. Then the party that reserved the table starts trickling in 2 hours after their appointed time. Then you find out that they are the owner's friends and even though you patronize her bar, you are meaningless in the long run. Be sure to come in on "karaoke" night where you can watch that little guy lip-sync all of the songs. Bottom line is that membership has its privileges and if you aren't a "member" then you might as well stay at home. Too much estrogen too. read more

Well we all cant be perfect... Let me say this... This place has the best wings I've ever had.. well as far as value and size. For me that's where the fun ends. This is one of those places where I walk in and people stare, waitresses get attitudes and eyes roll(Hey I'm just that awesome). I have been called a Negro at this place but to be fair the guy was drunk... wait what? This is a place where my friends and family never feel welcome, so just from my experience this place is not worth the food especially when you feel uncomfortable. The service is so-so but its the unwelcoming atmosphere that turns me off of this place.(So much bad attitude in this place) But hey, maybe its the dreads! read more

I have never been here before and have heard ok things about their food. I didn't order anything when coming here because by the time we sat down and got menus, the waitress did not come to our table for another 15-20 minutes. I was very disappointed in how slow the service was. I can't judge them on their food, but I will more likely than not, not be returning to this place. read more

Pine Valley Bar & Grill - The bar - American Near Me - Fort Wayne, Indiana

I have read some of the other reviews and totally agree. I arrived late to the 'party of ten or more" and the waiter/owner acted like she was irritated that I had not yet decided on my beverage of choice. I eventually ordered a PBR and finished it off in an hour with no one asking me if I would like another. That's when I decided that Pine Valley Bar and Grill sucked and that there were plenty of other bars that would appreciate my tagging along with the other low maintenance "gang of ten". You need the business, but you showed me no respect. Adios! read more

I'm not a wine guy, I like it... But I don't know it. I just drink what's handed to me. I'd go into my spiel about how I pick a wine but that's not what I'm hear to talk about. I'm here to talk about Clever Bottle, a nice little spot. Because it's small though, I'm kind of afraid of it being packed to the rafters.... So I won't tell you about how friendly the bartender (and I think owner is). I won't mention how I came in wearing a John Woo t-shirt and was treated with respect. I won't even touch on how tasty the special beverages were, nor will I say how they were reasonably priced. I'm not saying anything about how inviting and clean it is in here. Nope, not saying anything about that stuff at all. read more

This is a clean place with fun bartenders! The owner is one of a kind and will do it her way, which almost always results in great food, wonderful drinks, lots of laughs and a memorable night. read more

Pine Valley Bar & Grill - a man sitting at a table - American Near Me - Fort Wayne, Indiana

Went with a few of my friends and we were all planning on paying separately. When the server/owner wanted to start a tab for our entire table my friend handed her his card, I then told my friend he should just pay in cash since we were all paying seperately. The owner thought I was accusing her of not handling his credit card properly and it escalated into her calling me a "bitch" and a "psycho." I looked at her in shock wondering if this was really happening... I asked if she was the owner or if I could speak to the owner, she said "yes I own it and you can leave." This all was baffling to me that this occurred merely for suggesting my friend pay in cash. I will never go back to this place. I will proactively recommend that no one ever give this establishment their hard earned money. I will recommend that my workplace never order lunch from here again. This woman has a reputation for being rude and giving awful service. Also, their buffalo chicken wrap is dreadful. read more

Food = **** I've never gotten a bad meal here. Specialties are ribs, wings, and Mexican food dishes. Portions are generous, many shareable. Beverages = *** Beer on tap limited to seasonal and Miller Light ($7 pitchers). Bottled beer is coldest in the area. Bar stock pretty good, a good balance of bourbons and vodkas. Bartenders knowledgeable, not just "beertenders." Prices = $$ (out of $$$) As mentioned, portions and pours are generous. Not the cheapest neighborhood bar, but not the most expensive with The Trolley a stone's throw away. Demographics = Mixed It's all about the timing. From 4:00 to 8:00 p.m. average age probably is 50 because of the good food. After 8:00 p.m., a younger crowd starts to show up, many of whom are regulars. This raises the average age to 35-40. Make no mistake, this is not a place for the younger crowd. Expect to be carded if you're 21 or are lucky that you still look 21. Regardless of your age, the crowd is friendly and inclusive. Service = *** I saved the most controversial for last. Again, it's all about timing. During heavy food service, it can be hard to waive down a server. That is partially due to no organization in the front of house. You seat yourself and tables don't appear to be assigned, so all bartenders are your wait staff. If you don't get noticed when you sit down, you could have a wait. Don't be shy. Hail down a passing server. Regulars know to have their food order ready the first time around. It's the same if seated at the bar. You may be served by any one of 3-4 bartenders. They're waiting tables and making your drinks. If they're occasionally curt, it's not because they're rude; they're just busy. I've seen other reviews that call out a rude staff member and her treatment of customers, occasional use of profanity, and drinking while on duty. I have observed all of this behavior from this staff member, but it is directed at regulars who come here for that interaction with her. I've never seen her drink on the job. I have seen her jump up to help her team on a busy night when she is not officially on duty. The regulars give her equal treatment, and they often prank one another. We have been coming here for 6 months, prefer to sit at the bar, watch sports, eat and drink. The regulars and staff have accepted us. Oh, yeah, did I mention that my husband and I are 63 years old, but not a day over 35 in our hearts. We fit right in. read more

Good food and they make a good drink. We go for the karaoke on Wednesday and Friday nights. Good times! I can agree that the owner (I'm told) can be curt and seemingly very unfriendly at times. We go for the karaoke on Wednesday and Friday. Good group of singers and ALL are welcome. read more

My first time in the new location was last night.. Service was crap! Several times our waitress outright ignored our table. We ended up going straight to the bar for refills. Staff members drunk out of their minds, dancing on the bar, grinding their vaginas and butts in patrons faces... Very disturbing as this is not the type of establishment we thought we were visiting .. We will not be returning! read more

The low stars are not a honest reflection of this place. The service was great and prompt, prices were adequate for the amount of food received (my wife and I both didn't finish our food). Oh and the beer was cold..the way it's supposed to be. 7.5/10 for bar food, atmosphere. Will definitely return! read more

Staff are extremely rude and owner is a she-devil. Picture Mark Wahlberg's mom in the movie The Fighter- same beehive hair-do, but with less personality, and considerably more venom. Less than mediocre food. Extremely poor service. Barflies all turn to stare as you walk through the door, but nobody welcomes you or talks in anything above a hushed tone at the rail. It's as if they're all afraid to say the wrong thing in front of staff. Closest bar to my house, but last place I would consider going. Many classier choices with better atmospheres in Dupont Road area- Arena, JD Lounge, Ted's. Even Wings Etc. And B-Dubs are better choices than this little Hell-in-the-Wall. Steer clear at all costs. read more

First of all we got there and a waitress did not help up for 15 minutes. I ordered a Italian sandwich. You would think an Italian sandwich would have traditional Italian ingredients like mozzarella and an olive oil dipping sauce. This thing was slathered in Colby yellow cheese and came with mayo. I literally peeled the cheese off in a giant hunk. I was more then willing to just take the sandwich home and order something else that I like better. I asked the waitress if I could order something else and she asked was wrong. I told her about the sandwich. She proceeded to get the owner. The owner was extremely rude and defensive right off the bat. She told me I would be paying for the sandwich, which I had all intention in doing anyway. She continued to rant about how many years she had been making the sandwich and it's a top seller. I have been to this restaurant many times in the past and have not had an issue. This bar has gone down hill. It is dirty and not worth your time. Beware of the bathrooms also. They have tape holding up the toilet paper holders. read more

Didn't really feel welcomed I walked in and it was like they seen a ghost. It wasn't that crowded at all I let the bartender know I was going out for a smoke she ran out after me and said she needed a card I was paying in cash so I handed her my id. I went back paid my tab in cash and left I won't be going back read more

While at a sendoff for a co worker, we got our bills and I asked the waitress how many drinks I had been charged for since my friends bill was cheaper than mine. We had the same number of drinks (and same beer) but his was three dollars cheaper. The waitress rudely replied "don't you know how to read?" I was shocked that she would say such a thing. I said I'm sorry I just want to know how many you charged me for. She again replied with the same "don't you know how to read" line and I gave up, handed her my card and bill and said forget just pay the bill. She went on several times and I just kept saying just pay the bill so I can leave. She then accuses me of flipping her the bird, which I did not. Finally I got my paper statement and in the tip line I put "$0.00 RUDE!!" I said my goodbyes and went to find the bathroom when I hear said waitress yell over the bar.... "why don't you come say it to my face, you coward" Wow... again I was stunned. I ignored her and used the bathroom and when I came out I overheard her complaining to her regulars about me. I will never walk into that bar again. I will tell everyone of my experience. STAY AWAY!!!!!!!!! read more

I'd give more stars but with a decade of batending under my belt I simply can't tolerate a place that requires one batender per 10 customers. This would be a great ratio but ull spend more time waiting for a drink with a back turned to you than enjoying the drink. Prices are good, food is adequate, but all except one bartender is female and they spend more time complaining about tips and gossipping than taking care of their customers. The computers they use are ancient and the owner might as well burn a grand every weekend night because they over pour, give drinks to friends, get drunk and ignore customers. Thank God for the new bartender, shes the only one that was serving me. Above was an isolated incident. I gave the bar another chance and even though it still remains a rumor mill, like many bars, the service was far better. Compliments on the chili. Its spicy, which makes me warm and happy. Maybe the can keep impressing me and earn a couple more stars. read more

Service was extremely slow. Spent 1.5 hours there and only received one pitcher of beer and one appetizer. If you are not a regular here, they do not pay attention to you apparently. The bartenders preferred singing karaoke over working. Will not be going back. read more

Check you bill to make sure you aren't paying for other peoples meals that have mysteriously been added to you bill. Yes I had the chance to catch the error when the bill came and I should have caught it. Yes, the server had 2 chances to catch the error. I understand how you can accidentally give someone the wrong bill. But how do you "accidentally" ring up 2 meals on one bill when the person dined alone and not catch it. The owner refused to look into it. Not even sure she talked to the server before telling me it was my problem for not checking the bill on that day. Never ever eat here and if you do check your bill closely. read more

Awesome food. Great drink pours. Great atmosphere and wait staff!! Fast service will come back again if we are in the area
