It was way cool. First time here and the bartender Alyssa was just radical. There was a bunch of people here so I had to wait just a minute but she handled my order and made a damn good drink. Barnacles is a cool environment for people that want to chill and laugh and have good time. I'll tell you something though, I'd be happy to take that bartender out for some ice cream one day. Would visit again. read more

Meet some friends from out state there and the bartender Kristianne refused to serve us because her ex husband was my son, one of the guys said "wow " she must not want to make money... so Dennis, Aaron, Ash and Adam went to Rumors in Calimesa and had the best time there and one of the guys was leave in from Army read more

We were super pleased with our nice afternoon at Barnacles! We felt like grabbing some lunch and playing pool, and this place was on the list. It's tucked away in the same parking lot as an A&W (y'know...the rootbeer place). They have a pleasant outdoor patio and cool decorations. Parking seems pretty abundant. Inside is carpeted and comfy. The bartender was friendly and inviting. They have a few games besides pool - darts, a neat golf arcade game. The food was especially good, I usually have low expectations for bar food but the pretzels and beer cheese were SOOOO good and we got a turkey club which was their Saturday special. On the menu are burgers, sandwiches, grilled cheese, and more - along with tasty appetizers ranging from cheese curds to fried ravioli. I noticed the bar also had some candy and chips behind it. Their homemade potato chips are to die for. There's a wide variety of drinks and beer on tap. The pool table was great too (cash only to play). There is also an ATM inside. We felt comfortable, had fun, and look forward to coming back! read more

I came here for my birthday celebration and the bartender was super friendly and helpful! I was surprised how chill but yet fun it was when I stepped inside. It was the last stop to a great birthday celebration. read more

My husband and I came to this bar and it was decent we played a game of pool and it was free to play, which was nice.

The food and service was OUTSTANDING. The owner is super nice and her manager is one of the best in the business. Definitely will be back.

My wife and I stopped by Barnacles for the first time in many years. We came for Happy Hour and weren't disappointed! Heather, our bar tender, warmly greeted us as we entered. We were served immediately and had fantastic service throughout our visit. The fresh made popcorn is a MUST! It's served with freshly drawn butter on the side-to die for. We had the pleasure of meeting Taffy, the owner. She was just as kind and friendly as Heather. This place has the feel of a great neighborhood bar. Everyone knew each other and there was a positive vibe. 5 stars isn't enough for this place. read more

A friend kept telling me that I needed to stop in to have a "Mexican Candy" drink, so today, I did just that. I wasn't disappointed. My drink was delicious. I also tried some fried pickles and I wasn't disappointed. This place is what a person would call a "dive" bar. Perhaps 'cause it looks like a drinking den. Inside the bar is rather small to me, yet it looks bigger from the outside. They offer great snacks, drinks and provide a friendly atmosphere here. What seems to be a local favorite neighborhood bar, residents seem gather here to drink and socialize. Outside patio makes an alternative option for socializing here which is nice. Upkeep around the bar and it's perimeter looks well maintained. Parking is easy and there's plenty of it. Bathrooms were well stocked and well maintained. read more

Alyssa helped me out today and was such a great bartender. She was very welcoming, inviting and very friendly. Kelsey was also very friendly too I ordered a BLT and it was so good with their Homemade chips!!! Definitely coming back to good ol Mentone Beach! read more

Terrible service, only in that they didn't want to serve me because I didn't have my physical Drivers License, even though I had a picture of it, AND alternate forms of ID on me. I was here from another country vacationing in Big Bear. Anyway, we ended up eating at Freckles Kitchen & Tavern, great service there. read more

This was a good local spot until they recently raised their prices. $8.00 - $12.00 for a shot. Not worth the LA bougie prices

Fun little place with out door patio. They have bands and karaoke. Food is good enough. Drinks are good. I will go back!

If you come here I hope Heather is your bartender. She is the absolute best! Very professional service. She established a rapport off the bat. 10/10 recommend! read more

Ignored my father and I for people who walked in after us. Earlier bartender offered to go back in and get us a drink but i declined. Might be back for her service but most likely not. Whomever she is is i thank her. Cute lady that might have been driving that blue buggy in parking lot. read more

The bar tender at the time was so rude to my party. She told my cousin he couldn't get a beer until his entire party showed their ID. Yeah like we're going to share one beer for a party of 5. read more

Nice spot but definitely needs a new sign and updating drinks are good atmosphere not sure about food haven't tried it

I'm not much of a "bar" person, but after stopping by for a fundraiser and meeting some of the regulars, I think I've found place I can enjoy. The vibe is really friendly, and the owner, Taffy, makes everyone feel at home. The food was great, and the prices were reasonable. (I plan to stop by on Wednesday for the $1.00 tacos, and $3.00 Coronas!) LET THE GOOD TIMES ROLL! read more

This is my new hangout people are friends and easy going here. The food I will admit is amazing. Try their fried pickles.

The wings are great, perfect fries and the bartenders are always nice, place looks clean fun environment chill place to hang if your looks for somewhere calm read more

My favorite local bar which is super friendly and doesn't have the bro feel of downtown Redlands. They are trying to bring more of a sports bar feel to it with the new ownership, but it still remains more of an upbeat dive bar with lots of tv's and live music some days, my kind of place. read more

Best French fries ever! Very cool atmosphere to shoot pool and hang out with very good people

Fries are amazing , the beer is on point and the atmosphere is chill, so a must for anyone living close by or driving by..A+++

A good dive bar in the heart of Mentone. Not too expensive for an ice cold beer or cocktail. It is a sports bar so there's always games on the TV's located throughout the bar. They also have a pool table, darts, jukebox, and live music on weekends. read more

Barnacles is by far my favorite place I have ever worked. I love my work family so very much and love our customers even more. I have worked here for about a year and a half and the changes we have made over that small amount of time are incredible. The food is consistently getting better (try the pretzels or philly cheese steak!!!! They're amazing), The drinks are strong and cheap, The owner is amazing and actually cares about her business and it's workers. I genuinely couldn't have asked for a better gig. I will forever love this bar and Taffy read more

Great local bar and pub. Friendly locals and live music Friday night. Staff is very friendly and personable.

You could smell the cigarette smoke before even walking in. After walking in, of course it was worse. It smelled ad if the bar was outside on a smoking patio. The lights are incredibly dim and I didn't find it welcoming in the least bit. Needless to say, I didn't stay for a drink so I can't comment on that :) read more

I came here with a friend and the service was the worst I have ever had at a bar. It smelled of smoke and the waitress was more interested in the men at the bar than those of us that wanted food. I waited so long for food I ended up asking for it to go. It's dark, divey, and noisy. I won't be back. read more
