Got a bourbon with mineral water, people were friendly. Bring cash, they accept Apple Pay but the bartender didn't know how to use it. However she was nice enough to let me help her and I was able to charge myself and I paid with apply pay. They also have an atm inside of you need to take out money. I liked it. read more

I've loved this place since I've been coming a year ago but I've already had two bad encounters with the owner. She's rude af! I don't drink, I'm sober and when I go in she finds any excuse to tell me I have to buy a drink, in front of everyone and doesn't even give me a chance to settle in. I spend lots of money on NA drinks there all the time. I'm a regular but she kills my vibe every single time she's there. Like she has it out for me. I cause no problems I just shoot pool and support her business. NEVER GOING HERE AGAIN! read more

I always thought it was a shady, gross bar. But as they say, do not judge a book by its cover. We went in on a whim and I gotta say, this place was awesome. Very clean. Very nice people. Bartenders are ready to serve and very friendly! Drinks are affordable. The music is awesome. I definitely will be coming back. read more

A "true dive-bar experience" as stated by one of the regulars I chatted it up with. I was in Pomona over the weekend visiting family, and wanted to chill somewhere during the night. Found this place and decided to give it a go. Bar staff and security were great and welcoming. Drinks were priced well and most of the peeps were shooting pool all night long. Cool spot. They got sports on the tvs as well. Shoutout to the staff and Alejandro for story time. read more

The bartenders are really cool and the ambience is perfect. Strong drinks and cheap beer, what more do you need? read more

Interesting, friendly little Dive with a couple of pool tables. Nice bartender lady. Parking onsite. Clean bathroom. I'd def stop in again.

Lisa the bartender is really rude!!! She appeared to not be sober.... Whoever welcomed us was very nice but the bartender was playing pool then came to make us a drink and was very unfriendly. When we closed our tab after 2 drinks the receipt didn't list what we ordered? Overpriced and shitty bartender! read more

We love coming here. We love Debbie, Angelina, Lisa, Jewels, Sam and Shawn #2 (I'm Shawn #1!). Yes, it's a typical dark dive bar with strong drinks that are cheap. But everyone is so nice and good times are always had here!! read more

I can't believe it yesterday I walked in and I asked for some glass of water because I was dying literally of thirst literally and they rejected me and they profiled me and they denied my glass of water and as a humanitarian we're supposed to help each other. she told me to get out I didn't even say nothing and I just left cuz I didn't want to argue but I'm here at my house now and I got plenty of water but just goes to show that this place doesn't give a crap about anybody and they profile you . I'm glad I truly know what type of people they are I would not recommend this business at all. read more

This place is low key banging dive bar with good vibes. Regulars are cool and kick back. Bartenders made some strong good drinks. Pool tables are clean and decent. They have a touch tunes music juke box with all the hits. Staff was friendly, drinks were cold and the game was on. Will come back again with friends. read more

One of the best bars in Pomona! If you go in on a off day out of the week you'll run into a different crowd no matter where you go. For the most part everyone is there to have a good time and minding their own business. The prices are very reasonable! They have ice cold beer on tap and a nice size outdoor patio! Entertainment thru out the week and they have great DJ's! The owners Carol and Debbie do everything they can to assure a great time for their customers. I totally recommend coming to the Back Door! read more

If you want to feel about as ghetto as you can get at a bar, this is your place. Half the crowd is probally packing and the other half are probally selling. Now saying that they do make stiff drinks. Be brave, be very brave. read more

My boyfriend and I went to BackDoor last night because we checked into literally the only hotel in a 10 mile radius that had a room available on Valentine's Day and this was the closest bar! We had drank a bit before we took an Uber over, because we didn't know what atmosphere we were getting into As the reviews said, it's seedy. But hey sometimes you want that vibe--and what else can you expect in Pomona Lets just say WE LOVED IT! It was kinda early, maybe 10:15, but the DJ was bumpin and the bartender was amazing. I ordered Patron&Pinapple and my bf got Jack&Coke. They were strong...and cheap! She had specials on a board- passion shots $5 and a few others. I got a passion shot- why not. Well, it was just a Red Headed Slut with a different name, she wanted to go with the Valentine's Theme lol...Cute, but tell me there's jäger before pouring it! I'm not typically a jäger drinker..For big reason Anyways, I just wanted to dance- the DJ was great. Older r&b and hip hop! All in all we woke up saying "that is the spot!!!" And we can't wait to go back... read more

Cool spot. Its the type of spot u go to just dive-it and people watch. Pull up have a beer before your main event when your in the area.

Simple but extravagant , words to describe Friday which was the first time actually I visited this bar. Well priced and strong drinks cool staff expescially the security guards . The DJ that night played everything I asked for but when the robot came out that's when the whole night just went bonkers and I knew I was never going to forget that night again . Thanks for making this possible . read more

I'm giving this place 1 star because it's the service I got was not welcoming at all. The bartender seemed to be nice but when I told her I didn't want my drink cause it was flat she gave me a dirty look and said well sorry you still have to pay for it. I requested for another drink if I was gonna pay. Idk I love going to different bars but this one I'm not a fan of the customer service I got there. You were warned read more
