Second time here. Second time ordering the phenomenal Gilroy Garlic Burger (single patty)!!! Definitely in my Top 5 burger experiences!! I don't think I could ever come here and not order it!! Pop's has such cool, relaxing vibe to it. It feels like home even though I live far away from Gilroy. Whether you're hungry and/or thirsty and you're in town, get off the 101 and come here. You will not be disappointed! read more

Pop's Public House - Gilroy Garlic Burger (single patty). Delicious with a capital D!!! - New American Near Me - Gilroy, California

The food here is really good, and the service is pretty good. We went on a super busy night so that was part of it, but once they took our order the food came out very quickly. My only complaint is the acoustics, they had a really good singer but it was so loud you could barely hear the people next to you. We ordered a burger and a Cobb salad, both were excellent made with fresh ingredients and very large portions. I would come here again. read more

Week before Christmas, what a charming, yet large, place! Hyper-decorated for the holiday, you could tell a lot of time, love and attention spent. Wish I lived closer, this would be a fun place for an office holiday party, or any other. Mom's potato soup was amazing. I don't even like potato soup. Rich, warm, delicious layers of flavor. Calamari was well-seasoned and equally delicious. Portions very generous, staff super nice. Looking forward to trying other menu items. We'll be back! read more

Came here during a San Jose Sharks watch party and Mike and Christian made a real good Flavor Burst. Both were awesome and got my food and drinks out quick. I will definitely come here again for the alcohol drink again. read more

Food was good. Service was friendly. Casual atmosphere. Walked in at 7:00 on a Friday night and they seated our party of 7 almost immediately. The beer was cold! :) The food is a bit different from most pub fare, as they've put their own spin on classic dishes. Melted cheese on top of a shepherds pie and servered with garlic bread (we'll... It's Gilroy). The fish and chips seemed to be panko breaded. All of it was very good, but still atypical of you classic Irish and British pub food. I am only rarely in town, but would definitely return next time. read more

Tried this place for the second time and I loved it both times. Both times the services were excellent. The server was helpful and extremely efficient. It was busy however we were seated right away without reservation. There is a pool table and full bar, very chill vibes. The whiskey burger was super flavorful and delicious, very big as well. The drinks were also 10/10. My friend tried the michelada and said it was one of the best ones she had. The menu consisted of more than burgers, there were daily specials and pasta options. Overall will be returning and recommend if you're in the area. read more

Family friendly. Casual. Food was delicious. We had wings for appetizer, blackened salmon tacos on taco Tuesday that came with a modelo (special), celo sourdough burger (special), and kids had spaghetti and chicken tenders off kids menu. Taylor was our waitress who was super friendly and attentive. Definitely exceeded waitress expectations. Service was great. First time here. Will definitely come back again! read more

Great spot to watch a game and have some great beer, when a brew house has a Pliny tap you know they are doing something right! Came in for the national championship a few weeks ago and had a great experience, they were packed so Service was slow to start but they can't be faulted for that, it was excellent moving forward. The potato soup was epic, and the wedge salad was great, the fried onions were a very pleasant surprise! read more

Great neighborhood joint for the family to get some solid food and drinks. Lots of TVs to watch the game, big bar for cocktails and great service to make it all happen. I got the burger with onion rings and it was huge. Everything was tasty and the prices are solid. read more

Came in last night on our way to Monterey. Oh my goodness! Service was fantastic- thank you Christian! He was hustling the entire time, was quick with refills (unprompted), knew the menu well, and was very sociable. He would chat a bit with each table, but kept it light and quick so no table felt left unattended. The food was AH-mazing. The hubs got a burger and I got the chicken Alfredo pasta. Everything was epic. (Fair warning the pasta had whole cloves of garlic in it. Very good! But when it's covered in Alfredo sauce, it can be a bit surprising.) read more

Although this place has a bar vibe, still feels like a family friendly place to grab a bit to eat. When we walked in, we already saw a few families seated. Service was warm and fairly quick. We were asked if there was anything we wanted to drink as we were seated and handed menus. We went with the garlic butter wings, caesar salad, pops pub burger, and a mojito and a sabrina's sancho for drinks. The wings were crispy, though perhaps just a wee bit oily, the caesar salad felt like it went for days, and the burger was so filling, messy, and cooked to the right temperature. Their drink menu was fun and hard to choose! I liked sabrina's sancho, but it was a little too sweet. I think if I added just a bit more alcohol to it, it would have hit the spot. The mojito was strong, but also a lot of good flavor. Overall, a great spot for a yummy bite to eat. read more

What makes Pop's Public House so incredible? The Staff! No matter how busy they are, the staff takes the time to greet you & help you order. We had great service from "tall" Taylor - she was friendly, attentive, and had great recommendations for our food and drinks. Especially yummy were the fried pickles, chicken tortilla soup, and wings. The great selection of beer kept us drinking along with the bad & boozie sangria. The kids spaghetti and kids chicken tenders were a hit with our children. The constant sweeping of the floor kept Pop's looking fresh. We love Pop's! read more

Great and friendly service. Free soda refills and good size portions. Great to come with friends or family to support your favorite sports team.

The selection the flavors and the casual atmosphere. But the best was our server Taylor- she was the bomb!!!! Fun energetic great personality. We had the Whisky Burger, Cali Fusion Burger, and the Garlic Burger. Two with sweet potato fries and one with regular plus side salads with balsamic vinaigrette. Yum yum yum. The only reason it wasn't a 5-star rating was the tap ice water tasted a little off to me. But my tastebuds were funky that day I can't wait to return and try more stuff read more

We were in the area after shopping at the Gilroy Outlets so we decided to swing by. For our appetizer, we ordered the calamari. It was crispy and well seasoned. The sauce it came with complimented it perfectly. For my entree, I ordered the spicy J burger with fries as I saw it's one of the more popular options. The salad it came with didn't have much dressing unfortunately so I felt like I was just eating leaves. I should've asked for more dressing. Let me tell you, I was only able to eat half of it as it was so filling in addition to the appetizer. I didn't think it would actually be very spicy, but boy was I wrong! My lips were hot haha! My own fault though! Caden was our server and he was attentive and very nice. The ambiance was lively for a Saturday afternoon! read more

While the potions were large the taste wasn't quite up to par. The spicy chicken sandwich had no spice to it. The onion rings while large had fry oil dripping off them. Same with the fries. Both definitely needed more draining. The service was good and the ambiance too. read more

Tried this place again. The ambiance is great, drinks are good, food? Not so good. Tried the wings again. They arrived luke warm and were really salty. I ordered the calamari tacos. Typical, over-fried frozen calamari. Good portion size, just not great. I will be back to have drinks but their food is sub-par at best. read more

Went in for lunch after work and it wasn't busy so I was happy about that. Anyway, ordered the fish tacos appetizers as my meal because it came with three and I figured that would be a lot for 1 person as is. Boy was I right! These are 3 very generous portions of cod! Perfectly breaded, seasoned & fried. This is the kind of crunch I'd want on my fried chicken, and I can never find the perfect fried chicken in this town. But, I found the perfect breading on these tacos! Food was excellent. Waiter was friendly and accommodating. My significant other is on a special diet so I asked for just a regular plain cheeseburger with an unseasoned pattie & avocados and they delivered! (Not on the menu but ask & you shall receive) We were both very satisfied with our meals today and I can't keep thinking about those fish tacos because I have yet to find any in Gilroy that made me this happy! Pops is underrated and deserves more noise! BTW, reasonable priced too! Can't wait to go back and try other items on their menu! read more

In town on buisness looking for a local spot to try out. I came across this place on Yelp. I am very pleased that I did. We were immediately seated and given menus. The establishment was very clean and organized. Our waitress was very attentive and polite. We ended up ordering a pineapple Paloma, ceaser salad, chicken quesadilla and the one of the daily specials (salmon and shrimp chimichurri). Everything came out standing hot and fresh! We were very impressed with the house made sour cream and chimichurri. If you're thinking about trying place do yourself a favor and try them out immediately! read more

Visited on a busy Friday evening to this location for a late dinner. We were told a wait of 30 minutes (we didn't have a reservation) but wait was more like 10. The decor is def pub/sports bar vibes so it can be a little noisy. We were still able to have a conversation though. Service was pretty slow, even for menus and drinks, but the staff were really friendly and food was excellent. We had the chorizo cornbread, cali and pops burger with garlic fries. Probably the best tasting well seasoned and cooked burger I've had in a long time. Garlic fries were really tasty too! For drinks we had an Appletini which was so tasty and not too sweet. Dinner and drinks with an appetizer and entrees for 2 was about $100. Would eat here again. If you don't like to wait, recommend making a reservation. read more

Stopped here on our way to Los Angeles. We visited on a Friday afternoon around 2:30PM and there were only a handful of others at about 4 other tables and some folks at the bar. The food was quite tasty, and I think it's a really good value for what you get. I had the taco salad with shrimp and everything about it was amazing. The quality of the ingredients to the overall taste was spectacular. My partner had the Gilroy Garlic Burger with garlic fries. I can say that the fries were also spectacular and are a must try for anyone. We asked for the burger medium and it came out closer to medium-well/well done. It was still juicy, just not cooked to our preference. The burger itself was quite messy, but still good. Overall, the vibe of the restaurant is your typical sports bar with 8 TVs, a pool table, arcade machines, and what looks to be a DJ set up (maybe for weekend or other events they hold?) The tables were clear and very organized. I can see this place being a fun spot to go to on weekends with friends. If you like bar food, this place is a great choice! read more

We tried the Whiskey BBQ Burger, and it truly reminded me of what a real burger should taste and look like. It's a generous portion, so big that I split mine in half and still felt completely satisfied. The sweet potato fries were cooked to perfection, crispy on the outside and tender inside. An overall delicious experience! The cocktail menu offers plenty of creative options, and the bartender really knows their craft. I ordered one with a trendy name I can't quite remember, but it struck the perfect balance, not too strong, not too sweet, just smooth and well-made. They have a pool table, a few cool vintage arcade games, and lots of TVs. We went during the day but I can see it being a cool vibe at night. Definitely going back. read more

Stopped by for lunch on a road trip to San Francisco. We were seated immediately, and the server was super helpful. Ordered the chorizo corn bread, and it was unexpectedly good, with plenty of honey and butter. My son ordered the cheeseburger salad and it was huge and tasty. I ordered the Corned beef burrito - holy crap was that good. I would definitely stop by again to try some other dishes. The only low spot of the visit was the mens room. The floor was sticky and it needed a thorough cleaning. read more

Delicious ahi nachos! Very big portion and lots of ahi tuna. It's definitely a good appetizer dish to share. The taco salad was also very yummy and it was huge.

I've been here over fifteen times now and overall it's good. I've noticed over two years there are some of the same people there and new ones I've never seen when I go back. They obviously focus on customer service and take it seriously. Most of the food is good, but I've ordered the same thing a couple times and it varies. I think the cooks have had a turnover too. Overall, the food is good and if something is wrong they'll replace it for you. There's not many "good" restaurants in Gilroy and not enough variety at all. I think Pop's is narrowing down any negative things and continuing to improve. The owners are there a lot to make sure things run smoothly. read more
