    Was out in the area and wanted something simple. First off this place is all vibes. Chill and lax. All terrain vehicle grub spot. Lots of open parking. Owners proudly taking orders and live music by them as well. I got a double cheese burger, large chili cheese fries, onion rings and a hot dog with all the condiments. The burger was on point. Fresh and grilled fresh. Same with the hot dog. Chili cheese fries were good. Lots of beans in the chili. Big portion. And the onion rings are beer battered or appear that way. All the food was great. The prices were good too. Expect at home bbq style food. My only gripe was that all orders are all taken at the front by one person. Which backs up the line and creates a wait. Not all too bad.

    The Hubbs and I had an impromptu climbing weekend trip and had to cut it short due to crazy wind gusts. We decided to stop at the cool looking cafe, in the middle of nowhere and it was GREAT! It's exactly what you'd expect from an American cafe/bar in the desert! Fun decorating, cool layout, excellent service, and yummy, no good for you American grub. This is a must stop, enjoy and eat kind of joint.

    Great ride from Barstow Main to Slash X!

    Employees are all super nice! Food is excellent. BEST STEAK!... not just for the middle of nowhere either! Family friendly vibes and great atmosphere. Our go to when camping/riding on the main!

    Taking in the shade, listening to the one man band, waiting on our burgers. Good times!

    Great pit stop for lunch when out riding in our Side by Side. Love when they have live music playing, sitting outside with their unique decor. Always a good time.

    Stayed overnight in their Harvest Host area and came here for breakfast. We had the breakfast burrito and breakfast sandwich and both were very good. It is a fun atmosphere with lots of collectibles. A great oasis in the middle of the desert!

    We just have to try it once!! Good people. Good food. Good service. We love the decorations and history inside. We went off roading from 15hwy Stoddard Wells Rd through the desert about 45 mins to Barstow Rd 247. We have been off roading in the area for a while this is our 1st time eating here. Definitely will eat here again. Good vibes here!!

    Good ride to location. Drinks are strong food is good and they usually have entertainment on the weekends. Arrive early it gets packed!

    Got the breakfast burrito with both bacon and sausage, extra crispy my goodness. Really underrated breakfast spot and I passed by this spot for over 15 years. Wish it was open more often. Gonna try the Giddy up breakfast next time

    Everyone here is in our party! Small part of available outdoor seating!!

    (4.25 STARS)…read more Memorial Day road trips always seem to create the best random discoveries, and Pit Stop Bar & Grill absolutely delivered. Tucked away off Victor Street in Barstow, this was a fun find while driving back to Los Angeles from Vegas over Memorial Day weekend. Big props to Haley M., who was basically running a one-woman show and somehow kept the entire place moving with a great attitude and solid service. That alone made the stop memorable. The location has a cool, laid-back vibe with plenty to keep people entertained while grabbing food and drinks. They've got two billiards tables, a dart board, and all kinds of classic bar games, board games, and card games, including UNO, which is a family favorite. They also have several televisions. The food was all good too. I really enjoyed the Green Chili Burger, and everyone else in my party seemed genuinely happy with their meals as well. I felt they were trying to nickel and dime when I got the bill, i was charged for a side of ranch, a side of BBQ, and had no idea I was being up charged for the onion rings. I didn't say a word, but it hit wrong with me. .75 points deducted. What especially stood out to me, though, was the Memorial Day place setting displayed near the front entrance honoring our veterans and fallen heroes. It was simple, respectful, and genuinely touching. See my picture. That detail said a lot about the heart behind this place. If you're making the Vegas-to-LA drive and want something more memorable than the usual freeway fast-food stop, this place is definitely worth checking out. Great atmosphere, friendly energy, and one of those spots you end up talking about later.

My wife liked the tortilla soup, but the spaghetti and meatballs wear subpar. Now I guess, I shouldn't expect good Italian food from basically a sports bar but I'll have to say it just was relatively bland. I ordered the habanero pineapple boneless wings thinking they would be spicy-- they were not. Now I will admit, I've gotten used to hot sauce so maybe that's why they weren't that spicy. I'm not sure if they're supposed to be soft, but the boneless wings were not crispy, maybe the sauce made the better soft. But, I did not like it, I was expecting more crispy. But again, maybe is this is the way that they're served. The ambience is okay it's a sports bar. Kind of small as well but very busy. The service was great. I was greeted within less than 2 minutes from sitting down, and I had multiple servers taking care of my table. So definitely they're not lacking in service. I just think since the last time I went there and this time the quality of food has diminished.

The restaurant was very clean and not too busy so you can relax when you are eating there. Bathrooms were more or less clean. The staff were also very friendly. We had no issues. We called to order ahead because we wanted our pizza ready when we arrived. And good thing we did because it takes 25 min for a medium cheese pizza. I thought about ordering online, but that was 40-55 min and I realized that the prices online were more than the prices if you order and pay in the store plus a $1.75 service fee and you'd have to wait at the restaurant while they make it. There is also an arcade there for the kids to play. The cheapest prize was 50 tickets though so my kids weren't able to earn enough to get anything. But they had fun playing and we took the tickets home so they can just play arcade at home. Food itself tasted fine. No issues with the pizza. My kids liked it. We saw a lot of people eating at the salad bar too, so that must be good. We had a side salad and it tasted fresh. Good ranch dressing. This place also puts the Parmesan cheese on the fridge! Which is great because it's supposed to be refrigerated and many pizza places leave it out on the table all day. We would recommend this place. Lots of parking and nice relaxing stop in between our drive.
