    Terrible customer service. The bartender working yesterday March 24 2022 around 1pm served me well instead of the Stoli I ordered. When I asked why she poured from the well instead of what I ordered she claimed they didn't have it and only had flavored Stoli and that she had substituted another vodka, Tito's. I watched her pour my drink and it was obviously well brand not Tito's. I could clearly see the bottle of Stoli on the top shelf next to two bottles of flavored Stoli. She had actually pushed the bottle of regular Stoli back a bit (possibly trying to hide it?) on her way to pour from the well. I was with two other customers who got what they ordered without incident, not sure why I received such terrible service but I definitely won't be back. She did remake my drink when I insisted. Just a heads up in case management or owners monitor this page, the bartender in question commited a misdemeanor. I posted to the business Facebook page and it was removed with no response from management. https://www.abc.ca.gov/enforcement/frequently-asked-questions/

    Cool Pub to grab a drink at. most of the guests are out of towners or are here on business. Bar staff and Security are all very pleasant and offer great suggestions and service. I frequent the space and now know everyone on a first name basis. they offer 20 beers on tap and a great classic cocktail selection. If your in the area, you should definitely check them out!

    Popcorn and it delicious. Has a little kick to it

    Had a great time here. Met the owner and he bought us a round. Great guy, everyone liked him. Service was great, even though they were pretty busy. (The Niners were playing) They have this popcorn there that was absolutely delicious. They add a little something to it to give it a little kick. Overall a great time!

    Bathrooms are now clean daily before the door opens. Huge improvement, the nasty smell is gone. Hopefully they keep this up

    Unsafe environment for women with rude staff that try to trick you into paying top shelf for well drinks.

    Will you be checking vac cards?

    They aren't at the moment because it's not a Contra Costa mandate at this time. But masks are required for entry for the time being.

    Do they still have karaoke Wednesday and Sunday nights?

    Sorry we do not right now. Shooting for May or June of 2022 to bring it back. 😉

    Is Farringtons back open now?

    Yes! 7 days a week from 11am-1:15am

    Gosh, been coming here for soo many years and never wrote a review. How'd I miss that? Of course,…read morenow that the property has been sold and they're within a few weeks of closing their doors, I get off my duff with a review. Hopefully they can find a local spot but there arent many spaces for the footprint 20 tables and other games need. Our experience was pretty standard. Enjoyed shooting some pool. Caught several games - wish they could vary the screens a bit more. When its a row of 4-8 TVs and they alternate the same 2 games across them, its meh. If they would put a different event on each screen - boom! Beers were cold, wish there were more rotating handles but I also get it. Why change what works - but for me, I like variety. The bar food was pretty decent. Mixed drinkers were strong (at least according to my other half!). Pics - yup, forgot again! Next time :) We'll find them when they reopen and go experience the fun. Hope its soon!

    Me and my friend came here on a Saturday. It was really busy so food took a while. Wasn't bad food…read morewasn't anything to write home about either. I went to pay with my credit card. The waitress came back And informed me that their machine ate my credit card. They still expected us to pay nothing, was comped from our meal! The manager later came up and said that if I wanted to, I could talk to corporate. I left my phone number with them as requested. They never called me to inform me about my credit card! The bathroom was dirty, trash overflowing, one of the toilets was fully clogged There are plenty of other bars, go elsewhere. Personally I wont be coming back

    I've tried the best BBQ that Austin, Nashville, Memphis and Atlanta have to offer…read more I've watched "Chef's Table: BBQ" series on Netflix a number of times. I think that Sauced BBQ is as good as any BBQ I've tried throughout the US. This past weekend I traveled across the bay and ordered the Third Rack of Spare Ribs with a side of Potato Salad and Mac n Cheese. The Spare Ribs - were fall of the bone tender. And the meat was so rich and flavorful. The Mac n Cheese is some of the best I've had. And the Potato Salad while it was super good but had way too much mayonnaise. But I'd probably order both again as sides! Now for the not so good. Sauce was out of Burnt Ends. Ugghhhhh! Every time I visit, I've counted on Burnt Ends being available. I understand they are a scarce commodity, but it was disappointing they were not on the menu. That's how good they are! One comment. I don't know who's decision it was to add a video arcade to the restaurant, but I sincerely felt I was in Vegas at a cheap restaurant on the strip. The place is already pretty loud but to add screaming kids and video games seems a bit odd to me. Just seems completely out of place and doesn't add to the strengths of the restaurant - creating the best environment to serve some of the best BBQ in the Bay Area. Matt says check out Sauced after you finish shopping at Nordstrom or Macy's. You'll love the BBQ. Just make sure you are seated opposite from the video arcade.

    Went in last night to try out some bbq I recently heard about over at Sauced in WC! We got in about…read morean hour before closing. It was plenty of seating, we actually got to pick where we wanted since it was not busy. Of course since the Warriors were playing we chose right next to a huge screen. So for the food, I'd say they had a pretty good menu. I love sausage links and was a bit disappointed that they don't serve them. So we both went with the 2 meat combo; ribs and brisket & tri tip, not too bad but I've had better. The portion size was good, it was tasty but not hittin like I was anticipating! Then for sides the Mac was pretty good not hot and the beans were yummy. Ummm the cornbread was a bit dry so I think I'll pass on that next time. They have an area with video games which is great for kids to stay occupied too. Also, the restrooms were clean also which is a plus.

    What a wonderful experience and a surprisingly delicious dinner. Was on the hunt for pasta for…read moredinner and was tired of going to the same spots. I looked around and found this spot tucked away in Pleasant Hill. Decided to take a chance and I'm glad I did. First I went with my mom who's on the wiser side and they had a private party on the side with all the low top tables. Without us asking they grabbed us a table and set it up for us so she could sit. AMAZING. THE FOOD WAS DELICIOUS!!! I got the Cajun Alfredo creamy and flavorful and not spicy. The clam chowder soup was delicious too. I will def be coming back here because the service and food was so good. If you're looking for a new spot with a neighborhood feel look no further. Try this place!!!

    Well I skipped takeout and finally ate inside the restaurant on a Thursday night. I also promised…read morean update once that happened so here it is: PROS: - Service was amazing (our server was kind and accommodating in correcting a mistake I made while ordering, bless her heart!) - The atmosphere of the restaurant is slightly darker, with a lively, mature crowd, and a beautiful bar that spans the entire restaurant front to back on the side we were on (without the band), so plenty of seating (and it looks like there was still room for more tables if they needed it) - The layout of the establishment is H-shaped, with some tvs on the bar side and live entertainment on the other.You could still hear the band from the other side of the room but it was not at all loud, a good option for those with a noise level preference - The 2-man band was singing cover songs from over the decades and did a great job - I ordered the GF Frutti Di Mare in Alfredo sauce and once again my meal was delicious... the GF pasta was (again) cooked to perfection! - The meal portion size was generous, as were the seafood pieces in the dish (not stingy at all!!!) CONS: - None I stand firm in my 5 stars. This place is now a fave of mine for sure. Highly recommended!
