Somehow, found a place that has the best price for really good food and drinks. Been coming here almost every other week with my wife for dinner and working my way through the whole menu. Good sandwiches, amazing fries, and great pasta - the tortellini carbonara is fantastic. Drinks are great for the price, definitely getting your money's worth here. Service is AMAZING. Every time we get Connor, he lets me know about a new good food option and takes care of us. Fun to talk to, one of the best servers I've ever had and part of the reason we keep coming back. And it's not just Connor, every server we've had has been awesome. Open seating in the whole place, bar by the front, multiple tvs playing whatever game is on, a few playing stuff like normal tv for anyone wanting something else. Jukebox on the wall, an outside area and a quieter back area if you want some quiet. Style is a little older, but it's comfortable no matter which spot you pick. Beyond glad to have given Pavilion a chance and will be back next weekend to try out the cheesesteak with a side of au jus like Connor told me about! read more

Greeted and seated immediately upon arrival. Looks to have a separate dining area for large groups or private party. Typical American food and a nice happy hour selection. I'd come back to eat and watch an NFL game when I don't feel like cooking because they have a nice amount of screens. read more

Pavilion Bar & Grill - Alfredo Con Pollo + Shrimp, Philly Cheesesteak was for dinner. - Bars Near Me - Clayton, California

Nice people but completely forgot to put my order in The only reason they became aware is because I waited over 30 minutes and had to remind them for a simple order It was not busy and no excuse I think old school staff should never let that happen read more

Terrible service. Came in sort of close to closing and was almost pushed out the door due to the host or server whoever kept looking at the clock like it was an issue to seat another table while there was still a full house of people. Will not be coming back or ever referring anyone to come here. Disgusting attitudes. read more

Rude bartenders. Two of them. Blond and brunette working on Saturday night. Put all the drinks for an entire group on one tab and said "well, now you owe him money" Go to roadside 22 right across the parking lot if you want good service. read more

Rate a 2-3. I ordered the seafood linguini. My dining partner ordered spaghetti and meatballs. My linguini was doused with a thin, bland white sauce. After eating the pasta, there was a 2-3oz. puddle of sauce on the plate. (hint: if you like this dish, drive to Jack's in Pleasant Hill. I ordered a regular Marguerita. Not much tequila. The mixer tasted very so-so. I was told the spaghetti and meatballs were okay. Next time if I meet friends there, I will stick to happy hour bottle drinks and snack food. read more

We came by here before a concert at the Pavilion. It seems like the go-to place for a pre-game before the concert. It's open seating, and there were seats available so I am glad we didn't have to wait. It definitely gave off a mom-and-pop vibe. Everyone there seemed like they were either regulars or concert-goers. Our server was pretty attentive even when it was a busy night. The drinks were good, but needed an extra kick. I ordered margaritas and it was refreshing, but sweet. For food, we ordered the sampler, calamari and two different pastas: Shrimp and Chicken Diavlo and pescatore to share. Definitely too much food for us, but it was satisfying. The food did the job. The Pescatore was pretty delicious. Everything else was good. read more

Came in for lunch, there wasn't too many people. Ordered the prime rib salad with the Italian vinaigrette, and the fried zucchini appetizer. The salad was amazing, I loved the dressing which apparently they make in house. The food took a long time to come out for there being not many people there and it being just a salad, but it was worth it and I'd go back. read more

Whatever you do, do not order the margherita pizza. It was not good. I expected more from this place. $30 for a large non margherita pizza is disappointing. Should've gone somewhere else. read more

My son and I decided to try dinner since we haven't been here since before the pandemic. It was so nice to be back. The front bar area was full of fun locals. We sat in the back room where it is quieter. We were greeted promptly on arrival and advised to grab a seat. Within a few minutes of sitting, our server was there. He was friendly and attentive all evening. The free foccacia was warm and delicious. I dipped it in the marinera while my son used the butter. It was so good we asked for seconds. My son had the fettuccini con pollo. He said it was excellent with a rich and creamy sauce. I had the penne romano. The cayenne sauce had a kick without being too spicy. The chicken was tender and the sun dried tomatoes gave it a nice tart contrast. When our pastas came out, we were reminded how huge the portions were. But it was so good, we finished everything! Exellent service. Amazing food. Generous portions. And a friendly atmosphere. You really can't ask for more. read more

Great food and bartenders. Great food for football appetizers on Saturday and Sunday. Sunday best Bloody Mary's

We absolutely love Pavilion Bar and Grill! The food is always superb, and the service is consistently outstanding. It's one of our favorite spots -- we come here several times a month and are never disappointed. Highly recommend! read more

Friendly atmosphere! Great food! Lots of regulars--it's like family! Try it out with friends or the fam!

A neigborhoody feel filled with locals, medium-range sports pub, and a little divey mixed in. It has many of your standard drafts, and a decent bar-filled menu of mostly fried items, along with a variety of pastas and pizzas. I went with the Hot Pastrami [$11.95, 2.5 stars] -- Grilled pastrami, melted swiss cheese and a dijon mustard on grilled rye bread. Greasy, and not very tender. A large round of krinkled-cut frozen fries...could have done without. Service was nice, place felt clean -- bumped up to an average rating. read more

We stopped in just before going to a concert up the road. The happy hour had great food including the potatoes skins, sliders and chicken tenders. We ordered too much. The staff was quick to refill drinks or ask if we needed anything. You could witness workers dashing around the busy Friday crowd, they were pleasant to talk to- those behind the bar allowed us to guess their names and played along as well. We were able to watch some of the giants game in the big screen at the bar and most of the seating directly behind it could watch as well. The bathrooms were clean, food tasted great and overall the experience was a good one. read more

Are you looking for a neighborhood restaurant that has good food at reasonable prices, friendly servers, Taco Tuesday, and Happy Hour? Look no further. Pavilion Bar & Grill is located in the Clayton Station and there's plenty of parking. We came for Happy Hour but didn't realize they also do Taco Tuesday! Beef or chicken tacos are just $2 each and comes with salsa. And they're pretty tasty! In order to take advantage of Happy Hour, you need to sit at the bar area or in their enclosed outdoor patio. It was a little chilly out, but the fire pit was going and it was warm and cozy. Our lovely server brought our menus to our table and mentioned they served Happy Hour daily (3-6 pm) and of course, tacos on Tuesday. She didn't have a Happy Hour menu to show us but she knew the menu well and recited what was on special. We were quite impressed that she didn't even have to write our orders down on paper. She memorized it and our food arrived with no mistakes. When we asked for condiments or water our server was quick to fulfill our requests. Didn't realize that this place gets rather busy but our server checked up on us a few times to make sure we were taken care of. It can get noisy too especially when there's a game on. The Warriors were playing. I ordered 2 sliders and fries and it was only $6. It was pretty standard but I'm not complaining. The portions were generous and filling. My friend ordered pasta Bolognese and she received a healthy bowlful. And another friend ordered a side salad instead of fries with her sliders and asked to add chicken. Boy did she get a lot of chicken with her salad. So if you need a casual night out with friends that won't break the bank, come here. Other food items include pizza, pasta, wings and sandwiches. read more

Have to give a shout out to my favorite local hometown bar. Been coming to Pavillion for years. Always solid!

Food was mediocre at best. Ordered the New York steak, was grilled on a flat top grille which I never prefer. Should get a char broiler. Fried Zucchini was decent but extremely hot inside when you bite into it so be careful to have water of cold drink close by. read more

We come here for Katie! She has the best vibes, such a love, and the food is allright the fish tacos are bomb. Ask for the spicy salsa. And the fennel laced sausage patties on Sundays are out of this world read more

YOUUUUU GUYS !! Omg I can't believe I slept on this place do so long! I've lived nearby forever, finally just tried it recently and SHEEEEESH I ordered the Philly cheese steak sandwich and I am extremely critical when it comes to Philly cheese steaks but it exceeded my expectations. The fact that I didn't get a picture says everything. The drinks and vibe of the place were also spectacular and everything was so hot and fresh!! Will definitely be returning asap read more

Pavilion Bar & Grill - Tequila sunrise and a jack and coke (p.s they have the good ice) - Bars Near Me - Clayton, California

We've been coming here pretty consistently for the last couple of years for our meals and the food is great. The servers are always right on point, the drinks are great but it could be I'm pretty much a regular at this point but anyhow I've never been disappointed. Some nights if there's a big game the bar can be noisy but it just makes it more exciting cheering with the crowd. The pork chops great with the apple chutney for a while they stoped adding the apple chutney. I asked for it on the side, with the recommendation of staff but it's now back. The salads are great and the pizza too. can't go wrong Also, a shout out to Ryan in the bar. He's a great bartender and he always make sure were well taken care of read more

Went here with my best friend for lunch and a beer. Had a flashback instantly of being here before forever ago probably 15 years if not more. Didn't this place used to a Mexican restaurant? I don't know but doesn't matter honestly. I am giving the five stars just for our service alone. The girls working there were so amazingly nice and fun to talk to which doesn't happen that often with me if I'm not with my boyfriend. The food was pretty darn good too. read more

Great food, even better service! Perfect range of menu items. Love having this restaurant so close to my home.

Love their tomatoes soup & garlic bread. When I am under the weather love that combo. The garlic, yum!!
