    Bartenders only watch the sport they want to watch. There's literally 3 people in here, including the bar tender and he refuses to turn the channel.. This establishment doesn't care out its patron or their entertainment. Grumpy' sneed a serious overhaul in their customer service. Update: Just carded these guys because they're 'under 30 looking' lmfao. What a joke.

    Last time I was there was 3.15.16 Grumpy's is like cheers, always knows your name, makes you feel welcomed, and they're always there for their employees (specially during difficult times). They have an outside fireplace and horse shoe pit. The owners are great, and Pat gives the best hugs. Bartenders are funny, helpful on recommending drinks, if they know you, and what you drink, they have it poured as soon as you get to the counter. They have great bands on Saturday nights, great holiday parties, (Halloween, Christmas, St. Patrick's Day, and New Years), darts, and pool. Go in, have a seat, ask what's a good mixed cocktail, or beer, and enjoy the company.

    Best burger in the area…read more It tastes just as good as it looks! Super juicy and flavorful, cooked to order and somehow the bun is sturdy enough not to fall apart when eating, which is rare to find in the juicy big burger business Definitely worth a trip out to beautiful Donner lake on old hwy 40, if not just for this burger

    I called this business today because my Chase Business credit card showed an unfamiliar transaction…read moreassociated with their merchant descriptor. I was simply trying to determine whether the charge was legitimate. I first spoke with a very pleasant employee who explained they were busy because of the weekend, took my information, and said someone would most likely call me back early next week. I also contacted Chase to report the $845.61 transaction as unfamiliar and asked them to investigate. About two hours later, at approximately 9:45 PM, I received a call from the owner, Brian, while my 6-year-old daughter was next to me as I was reading her bedtime story. Instead of asking questions or trying to understand why I was calling, he immediately accused me of being a scammer and told me that "you and your family should die a horrible death." I was shocked by the hostility. My daughter asked me what the man meant by wishing us to die and it took me a moment to come together to senses what to say to her about it.. I understand that business owners receive scam calls and can be cautious. I get them all the time and some times it gets annoying. However, there is no excuse for speaking to another person that way. I immediately called back, left a calm voicemail and gave him the opportunity to return my call to apologize. I never received a response. I want to be clear that I do not know whether the unfamiliar charge was caused by this business, their payment processor, or something else. Chase is investigating that separately. My review is based solely on how I was treated during that phone call. Ironically, my father and I actually stopped at this pub on that day of June 5. We looked at the menu, decided not to eat there because of the high cost menu prices, and instead had a great lunch at Burger Me in downtown Truckee and even took a selfie with food as it was delishious (tuna burger was incredible - highly recommend). After reading other reviews mentioning similar interactions, I hope the owner reflects on how customers are treated. As a husband, father of three, and a nearby property owner, I expected far better professionalism. I have written over 100 Yelp reviews over the years, and the vast majority have been 5-star reviews because I enjoy recognizing businesses that provide excellent service. Unfortunately, this is one of the very few times I've felt compelled to leave a 1-star review. I do not like to leave poor reviews and I sincerely hope the owner reflects on how customers are treated and chooses to do better in the future.

    I really enjoyed my experience at The Goose & Fern. It really gives the feel of being in the UK…read more The food is delicious and reasonably priced. I sat at the bar and was served by the owner of the Pub, who is from the UK. I loved chatting with him about the pub and all the fun things that go on there. I happened to come in on Trivia Night, which gets a decent crowd! For dinner, I ordered the Braised Beef Guinness pie and a Guinness to go with it. The pie comes out steaming hot with a nice layer of browned mashed potatoes on top. There is real crust to this kind of pie. Underneath the mashed potatoes is more like beef stew. Large chunks of tender beef and vegetables are sitting in a delicious Guinness stew. On the side, a fresh salad to go with it. For $24 the portion you get is perfect and along with a good pint of beer this is the way to go. I will definitely be back to try some of their other food!

    My family and I stopped by The Goose & Fern to watch a World Cup match because their website had…read moreadvertised that they'd be showing the game. My wife and I had just visited Abbey Tavern this past weekend, a premier Scottish pub in the City, and we expected a similar atmosphere. However, the moment we showed up, we were met with great disappointment. The Goose & Fern is honestly a terrible place to watch a sports match: there was only a single TV mounted in the back corner of the restaurant, the TV wasn't particularly large, and the speakers had been turned completely off. What a bust. Although the food was decent, especially the Shepherd's pie -- which came piping hot in a small cast iron skillet, the service was downright dreadful and almost non-existent. We never received waters (or were even asked if we wanted beverages), our table wasn't given enough silverware, we were never checked on during the meal, and we were waiting around for 30 minutes twiddling our thumbs before somebody from our party finally went up to try to pay for the check. In hindsight, a tip was not warranted for the lack of service. Overall, Yelp grossly misled me on The Goose & Fern. This is not a spot I would stop by again to watch a sporting match. If you're in this part of Santa Rosa, do yourself a favor and head over to Dave and Busters down the street where they have a bunch of massive screens, tons of beer options, and service that will far surpass what you're getting here.

    The girl working tonight is absolutely ridiculous. She denied all of us drinks even though our IDs…read moreare valid and she's refusing to give a reason other than "Uhm, it looks off". We even showed a passport which she refused to look at and said "IDs only". Like a federal ID isn't enough somehow?? We have been there every weekend for the past 3 weeks, never seen this girl, and all of a sudden refuses to serve us because one person has a completely valid ID, and she just wants to cause chaos. She refused to compare our IDs to prove the validity, and refused to budge. It was a valid ID, and the bartender was just being stubborn and didn't want to admit her mistake. It's really a shame because we live in walking distance and we're really enjoying being able to walk down and play pool and have a beer. Now we'll be going elsewhere.

    Place has New Owners, before I walked in and walked right back out! So i was skeptic to visit again…read morebut SOOO glad we did!!!!! It was pretty busy for a week night the first night we went nice crowd we all sang some karaoke it was a blast! Felt like a rockstar on the stage... I was staying up after thanksgiving break, and went out a few week nights and Friday/sat of course and always ended up back at The Field.. (that's what the locals call) it.. The place has some great bartenders, the taco ladies tacos were amazing! My husband had nachos and those were delicious too!!! We will definitely be back !! I LOVE the dance/club nights !! They have fun lights and have no problem playing requested songs.. were not dancers but even my husband and I grooved a little bit... :) Thank you to the new peeps who bought the place! You brought the fun back to Marysville!! The themed event nights sound amazing and we are looking forward to attending the our first one the Naughty Santa Party you have coming up :) looks like a blast!! So glad we stumbled into this lil spot!! The towns best kept secret I will be back!

    It's been a while since we've been here. Hasn't changed much…read more..... Still has some of the nicest, attentive servers around. Food is amazing and the ambiance has that local feel that makes this place special. Get the wings. Can't go wrong with them. Love the crispyness and meatiness of the wings. My go to is the killer prime rib with a side of Au Jus. So freaking good. They have good selection of beers on tap and cocktails are good quality and strong. They even adjusted one for my wife who was worried it would be to sweet. Very accommodating. Loved sitting outside in their huge sitting area. Must not let years pass before returning.

    Friendly, welcoming staff in a rustic setting. Had been misled by someone's review photos to think…read morethere was a view of the river from the outside seating area. There isn't. We ordered a grilled chicken sandwich, onion rings, and an order of fish and chips, alongside two flavored lemonades. Chicken was unremarkable--unseasoned, not marinated; unfortunately a bland and slightly tough piece of chicken. Came on a nice brioche bun with the caramelized onions being the best part of the dish (and meal). Our fish and onion rings were overly greasy. The fries were tasty and seemed fresh but unsalted and wilted beneath the fish and could have been crispier. My partner thought the sweet flavored lemonades were from a mix and there was no pulp. No pics. Seems the de rigueur order here is chicken wings, which we don't order. Would be a great place to hang with friends for drinks and conviviality; very casual vibe. But foodwise, our experience was very middle-of-the-road.
