    French martini
    Mster M.

    Good times at this local dive bar. All the regulars in town go .. There was two bartenders there. A guy a fro hair (friendly guy) and a blonde girl with a cap . We enjoyed our time there. She made me a French martini . I was shocked that they had the ingredients. And happy

    The other half of my Hawaiian burger , fried mushroom appetizer, and onion rings. Burgers are served with fries or onion rings.

    If you're expecting a fancy lil bar and grill, there's nothing fancy about this place. But they do have great burgers and other eats, as well as good service and smiling faces. Portion sizes are HUGE and the burgers come with hand battered onion rings or fries . Thank you.

    Went here for dinner one night as it came highly recommended for great pub food. I had the ribeye steak and my friend had the salmon. They were good but I wouldn't say great. Wait staff was nice and helpful and plenty of parking. Walking distance to the main strip in Big Bear Lake. We got there right before 8pm and they stopped serving food shortly after 8pm. Lots of fun bar activity and karaoke going on. We probably won't go back for dinner but may return for drinks some time.

    Quaint little bar/restaurant in Big Bear. Sweet workers and quick service. I got the fish and chips and would recommend them for sure. My husband got a burger that was juicy and tasty. They had karaoke on Saturday when we went. Cute little place and worth a visit.

    Would always come here for years and rave about their cheese sticks to everyone and recommend them .. drove over a hour just to get this craving.. sadly disappointed it seems like they changed them up . We asked if they changed them and they said they're the same. Wish they could have them the same way they used to now they just taste really bland. Im so sad they used to be my favorite, if you had them before you know

    It's like a bar that you see in a movie! Went in on a weekday lunch time and there were people inside with kids Apparently..... they accept kids during the day which is nice. There are bar seats and tables ... and even a spot to do karaoke.... The service was pretty good. We got checked on multiple times ..... We had their burger - one with blue cheese With onion rings And fish and chips. Both were not bad.... The only thing that was off was the taste of the diet pepsi.... seemed a little off. It's a nice place to eat at... But best to go on a non rush hour ... Theres some street parking but would def be a problem when its peak time

    The stage!

    Went back again and it was even better! Food rocks the house, especially the ribeye dinner.Burgers are bombastic! Food is cooked to order so be patient as you wait for the food to be prepared. Have a $4 mystery beer while you wait.

    Your guys shrimp and fries are so delicious and crispy. The virgin mango daiquiri was delicious. The service was super fast and accurate. The ambience was cool.

We didn't have any issues around 10pm. Seating: An intimate lounge for the most part, bar seating, group seating, room for about 50 people total. Vibes: Downtown Palm Springs is an eventful place. Small enough that it's close to the type of vibe you need. As for the space itself, it has a dim lighting, a tv for sports or popular shows if you just want to zone out. You have your usual singers and a good ebb and flow of people trying to catch a song. Karaoke is definitely the heart of this place. Whether someone is absolutely crushing it or having fun with friends, it's a supportive place with good vibes all around. DRINKS Vodka Soda with Lime (Recommend) A simple drink that gets the job done. Cold, refreshing, and well balanced. Just a solid cocktail to help you relax and enjoy the vibes. CUSTOMER SERVICE Friendly, attentive, and easygoing. DJ is great and same as the servers. TL;DR OVERALL 4.5 Stars. Good drinks, welcoming people, and one of those neighborhood bars that doesn't have to be expensive and flashy. Great space where people can laugh, sing, meet new friends, and enjoy a night out. Enjoy! TIPS * Karaoke is the main attraction--don't be afraid to sign up for a song. * Vibes will come in waves, sometimes it's poppin and sometimes its chill.

I think you have to pay to sing, but there was no cover charge to walk in and sit. Nice to listen to everyone and it seemed like a supportive crowd. You're definitely encouraged to sing along to the choruses. All our cocktails were yummy and of course had fun names. One even came with a plastic light up ring!

    My girlfriend was craving a fat, juicy, pink in the middle burger and the winner of the selection…read moretonight was The Lumber Mill. It was their unique burgers that caught our eye so we decided to come in and see what's good. The first thing I noticed is that their prices seem a bit pricey for a burger and fries but all the prices here in Idyllwild are elevated so these prices are in alignment with other restaurants. And for me as the prices get higher so does my scrutiny of the food and overall experience. My reason for 3 stars instead of 4 is price vs amount of food you get - and the fact that they charge $5 for a Dr. Pepper. That's a bit obscene in my books, so 3 stars. Now the details... I was gonna get a pastrami burger ($20.99) until I noticed the Bacon Lovers ($19.99) and I'm a huge bacon lover and this is the first time I've ever seen a bacon lovers burger so I had to go with it. It is a juicy beef patty stuffed with bacon bits & topped with American cheese, more bacon and 1000 island dressing served on a brioche bun. They cooked it to a perfect med rare and it was really good. It comes with your choice of side (fries, coleslaw, potato salad, baked beans or garlic mashed potato's. You can upgrade to fried pickes, zucchini, sweet potato fries, onion rings or corn nuggets for $2.50 and our waitress was raving about the beer battered onion rings so I chose those. The burger was great and so were the onion rings, however as you can see from the picture, there were not many onion rings AT ALL. I don't mind a $2.50 upgrade charge but give me some onion rings PLEASE!! Not happy about the quantity fr that upcharge! My girlfriend got the Wild Western burger ($20.99) which is a juicy beef patty topped with bacon, cheddar cheese, BBQ sauce & onion rings. She didn't really like it much. She also upgraded to fried zucchini and she didn't much care for those either. It seems like there are good things here and some not great things here. If there is something ypu want to try here, I would go through the reviews and see what people are saying about it. Again, I feel like I got taken advantage of with that up charge on the 6 onion rings they gave me, but they did deliver on how good they are. I would recommend doing your research before ordering here.

    My family and I always come here and they never fail to make us feel welcome, happy, and satisfied…read more The food is your classic American style diner but with beyond meat and plant-based options for vegan and vegetarian friends. Our server, Arcy (please forgive me if I spelled your name wrong!) is always lovely and just a delight to be around. She is very knowledgeable and is very helpful with any questions we have. As far as the restaurant itself, it's very in touch with the mountain, cabin vibe. It's very comforting and a nice change from your average diner. It's safe to say that my family and I will come back as we've done the years before on our trips to Idyllwild.
