Pub burger w/ fries
Hamlet O.

Stopped by shop here often at Whole Foods gave it try inside while foods is Stage 71. Full bar and food. You also can buy from the Whole Foods, food section and eat at Stage 71. Service is good you order at the register and they bring your food to you. They got happy hour daily and couple TVs you can watch the games. Ordered a handroll spicy tuna was ok. Wasn't expecting to be great A for the effort. Pub burger was ok but the patty quality was good. Nachos was the best.

3.5 stars Bar inside Whole Foods! Happy hour offered daily. Can order food and drinks or bring food from cafe and eat here. Good service. Clean and decent. Giving three stars as I don't know how the food tastes like yet. Will have to come back.

The greatest Manhattan in Springfield!

I wouldn't so much call it a sports bar as a modern, hipster haven! The music here is fantastic. Not too old, not too new. Easy-going & recognizable tunes that make the perfect accompaniment to lunch or happy hour. They have a respectable tap-list and a small menu of classic cocktails done right. The food menu is also really great. Highly recommend the fish tacos. Chicken wings and cauliflower nachos also look really tasty. The folks behind the bar (David, Manny, Brittany & the lot) are very welcoming and easy-going & the bar manager knows his booze. Hit him up for recommendations on what's behind the bar. I'll be here regularly, I think.

170 calorie mojito fits my macros lol

Cool little bar right smack in the middle of Burbank inside Whole Foods... they have a variety of beers, wine and drinks. They also have food options (vegetarian and vegan also)from hamburgers to sushi (even vegan). The fries are soooooo freakin mouthwatering delicious oh em gee. Ughh! I had a mojito that was fresh, pretty strong and not too sweet. The mint leaves were fresh also and it was only 170 calories. The crowd seems to be from the studios around the area so they were pretty dressed up. The place was popping for a a Wednesday evening at 6:30. I had a tuna sandwich that I picked up from inside Whole Foods. The sandwich had all of the nutrition facts and ingredients. You gotta love that if your watching your caloric intake. I will come back again!

Bar lots of beer in the house all kind

Very good food and over all good selection of beers. Whoever, The first thing they tell you is "YOU ONLY HAVE 30 minutes to eat and drink and after that time either you keep consuming or have to leave the place and they have a security guard marking sure you do it or leave" I hate how they do it specially when you have order already two drinks and a full meal. They come around and say it's been 30 minutes, so no the most welcoming place a round, and if you need the bathroom they don't have any in the area, you have to walk all the way to the back inside the super market.

Final rating for regular fries: 4/5 Spuds. Final rating for sweet potato fries: 4/5 Spuds.
Frequent Fryer, T.

Whole Foods Market: the little health-conscious grocery store that could. It's hard to believe that what once started with a single family-funded vegetarian supermarket has now expanded to become synonymous with Big Business and Industry itself, thanks to it's recent acquisition by Amazon. But what I like about the company is that even though it might falter and draw criticism every now and then, it always (eventually) remembers its original goal of serving high-quality sustainably-raised and ethically-acquired foods. It has taken the steps necessary to stay in business after almost 40 years, good or bad, and ultimately leaves the deciding power in the hands of the customers. With that said, if you're a customer of the Burbank location, you can decide to visit a restaurant unique to this store: Stage 71! Yes, a restaurant inside of a store (which is on top of a parking structure, if you're really keeping track). Using an extremely minimal theme, Stage 71 alludes to its nearby studio neighbors (Warner Bros., Universal, and Nickelodeon to name a few) with subtle décor and an industry phrase scattered here or there. But it's a full-service restaurant with large glass walls and a view of the San Fernando Valley, and it's tucked away behind the express checkout lane! But none of that matters. Let's get to the fries! The options for fries at Stage 71 are narrow, so let's hope that they're good! You've got regular fries for $3 and certified Vegan, and you've got sweet potato fries also for $3, but not labeled Vegan. Why? It's unclear, but The Frequent Fryer has seen this situation before. Other restaurants will serve sweet potato spuds with an aioli sauce or with bacon bits, but always as an option. That's not the case here, but the label is still mysterious. Either way, both of these are some of the cheapest things you'll find at Whole Foods. Both fries arrive in undersized frying baskets which are assuredly only for show, but they're piled in plentifully, and I'll tell you right now that this simple order is very filling. Two sides should be shared, and one side is enough for most people. A side note for those who prefer ketchup as their condiment: Stage 71 offers Sir Kensington's brand of gluten-free ketchup, which has the same taste as most over-the-counter ketchups without processed sugar. Also, a main ingredient is green peppers, so don't be surprised by the tingling sensation, because it's a nice change! The regular fries are great! They're cut restaurant-style and long, and the skins are flaky and audibly crunchy. There is very little salt sprinkled on, but the potato's taste is bold and wonderful, if somewhat oily. They taste how fries should taste, even though they don't do anything particularly exciting. The interior remains soft despite the excellent outer frying, and they don't limp out after cooling down. Not what you would have expected from a grocery store food court, huh? The sweet potato fries are also pretty good! There's not as much crunch to them, unless you find a thinly-tapered fry that's been compressed to a sharp edge. The fries are tender as if they've been baked instead of fried, and while they're not as long as the other fries their form stays just as intact. Again, there is some salt, but the mild sweet flavor of these spuds is what will stay with you. They're not sugary either, so you won't feel like you're cheating on your diet. These would actually make a good healthy snack, so keep that in mind while you're shopping in Aisle 5 for that $7 bag of kale chips. Final rating for regular fries: 4/5 Spuds. Final rating for sweet potato fries: 4/5 Spuds.

First off, parking is street parking and in the surrounding neighborhood so give yourself a little time to find a spot. The building is a little smaller than I imagined. One decently sized room for the bar, booths and tables. This place fills up fast especially on trivia nights so if you are sensitive to crowded spaces and loud noises (music and all the talking) just be prepared. :) Our group got a nice mix of the pretzel, beef tallow waffle fries and cheese with jam. All topped off with a real nice pilsner. You place your order at the bar and they bring it to you, the bartenders were top notch and really made our group feel welcome. Would come back for sure!

The chicken was a little dry and the seasoning on it just tasted spicy to be spicy. No real flavor. The cucumber and slaw also did not help with the bland taste. It really needed an acidic component to bring the flavors out or an aioli. The fries it came with were divine though! I subbed for waffle fries and they were oh so crispy! Corpse Reviver - Get it. Just get it. Refreshing with just the right amount of alcohol I want to taste in my drink hehe. Food came out timely, staff were helpful and attentive. Great place for a group of 4-5 - anymore and it'd be too crowded as they don't have big tables. Loved the vibe of the place. I really want to like LIKE this spot so I think I'll get something else entree wise next time!

That says a lot about the staff. Our server, she was a young lady, was on top of everything and really made our time here enjoyable. I came here for happy hour on a Tuesday was surprised to find out they do $2 tacos and $5 margaritas. Let me tell you, the tacos are delicious and the margaritas are STRONG. It's a hell of a good time. I really enjoyed the chicken taco and carne asada taco. The meats were juicy and very flavorful. I also ordered their nachos, chili cheese fries and bread pudding. The nachos were made perfectly with the chips being thin and crispy. They used a couple different cheeses and the jalapeños were a nice touch. Definitely ordering it again, I can do without the chili cheese fries. It was good but it wasn't amazing. Their bread pudding was HUGE and I can see why it's one of the popular items here. The bread was crispy on the outside and soft and gooey in the inside. Morrisons is definitely a fun place to be. Perfect to enjoy happy hour, catch the games on, and hang out friends. They have plenty of seating inside and outdoor with heat lamps. They are dog and kid friendly as well

This just goes to show you that the people that visit this establishment respect and care for the games, which is a reflection on the clientele itself. And of course, you're welcome to bring your own game as well. We got there a bit after opening so we were able to get one of the multi seater tables. When we left at 3PM, the place was packed! The bar seats were all taken and the outside seating was pretty filled too. So be sure to get here early if you're looking for a table. Got an order of the chicken tenders and sweet potato tots.

The food had some highs and lows. The grilled cheese bites weren't what we expected at all, just a regular grilled cheese sandwich cut into small pieces and served with salsa. That said, the salsa was amazing and honestly saved the dish by adding much-needed flavor to an otherwise bland (though very cheesy) sandwich. The goat cheese salad was disappointing. It was overdressed to the point of soggy lettuce, and the portion felt pretty small for the price. On the brighter side, the garlic fries that came with the buffalo chicken wrap were incredible, full cloves of garlic and really bold flavor. Definitely the standout of the meal. The wrap itself was just okay: decent taste, but small and not particularly appetizing in presentation. Drinks were a win across the board. The guava strawberry cider was delicious, and the hazy IPA was also really enjoyable. Overall, there were some highlights, but not enough to make us eager to come back anytime soo

It was FANTASTIC. Our server, Isaiah, was absolutely amazing and on top of things, refilling our water before we even hit half glass. Not to mention his energy and vibe was so welcoming and fun. We got the PuPu platter for two, came out within minutes, I could spend the rest of my life eating that alone. Isaiah recommended his favorite sauces, Garlic Chive and Chipotle Citrus, they were amazing. We got the shrimp and lobster roll, I officially entered heaven. The Isles of Club sandwich was the finishing touch that had me laughing from joy. Near the end of our dining we meant Max, another server, who is absolutely fantastic, brought us everything we needed, boxes, sauce containers, bags, to-go dessert. His energy was also amazing and super fun. Now some extra things to note: -I'm not a big mac salad girly, but holy moly guacamole i loved their Mac salad. -anything tempura/fried in this place is heaven itself -their fries are perfect -the vibe is beyond life you might start crying in joy -be ready to want to buy everything on the menu and then some -I downloaded yelp just to leave this review Overall, Broken Compass Tiki is the perfect place for everyone.

Broken Compass Tiki is a pirate themed tiki bar in Burbank…read more They don't having a parking lot, but it was very easy to find street parking just around the corner on a Sunday afternoon. The front of the building is a little vaguely marked, and the entrance has speakeasy vibes, which was a surprise. Upon walking in the front door, there is some tiki décor and a small counter in the rear. I remember thinking to myself "what the heck, this is it?". I checked in at the host stand on the left, and was handed me a boarding pass. She then led us through a hidden door behind what looked like a shipping crate. We were now in the real Broken Compass. The interior is a good size. The two-sided bar seats around a dozen. There is a lounge side of the bar that has two large booths along the wall, and another area with comfortable looking couches and lounge chairs. The main dining room has some tiki hut booths, and two sections of tables with half booth and half chair. The décor is pretty extensive with a good mix of pirate, nautical, and tiki themes. There is a lot of bamboo, thatch, rope, cargo netting, skulls and skeletons, port holes, octopus tentacles, jellyfish, tiki lights, and more. The ceiling is dark with various nautical and pirate markings, and even tied up ship sails overhead. The tiki hut booths have the parrots from the enchanted tiki room above them. Even the two restrooms are nautical themed, with beach and marine sounds playing. There is a lot of great décor to look at. We arrived around 2pm on a Sunday, so it wasn't very busy yet. By the time we left a few hours later, it was starting to get busy. We decided to sit at the bar. We started out with the buffalo cauliflower ($14) for an afternoon snack. The serving size was generous, and the buffalo sauce had a good tang. It was served with some sauces, and was surprisingly filling. A nice feature of the cocktail menu is that each drink displays one to three compass stars to indicate the strength of the drink. Their cocktails use a great variety of liquors including ones you don't often see. Many of the ingredients are made in-house. I started out with Chupacabra's Vacation (Demerara Rum, Jamacian Rum, Pomegranate Reduction, Cinnamon, Lime Juice, Bitters, two-star boozy rank, $17). It is served with a flaming lime on top and a little fire show. It was balanced with a light booziness, some light pomegranate flavor, and a cinnamon sprinkle on top. She started out with the Bittersweet Paradise (Jamacian Rum, White Rum, Campari, Passionfruit Syrup, Lemon, Lime, Pineapple, two-star boozy rank, $18). It didn't drink boozy at all, and was passion fruit forward, with light bitterness. My second cocktail was the Bermuda Dune Buggy (Gin, Overproof Rum, Kumquat Liqueur, Cassis, Orange, Lime, Bitters, two-star boozy rank, $18). It had a very unique garnish of a Chartreuse infused gummy which was delicious. The drink was nicely balanced, and didn't really drink boozy even with overproof rum in it. They have a rotating monthly cocktail and she tried the Tropic Like It's Hot (Coconut Washed Lemongrass Infused Rum, Mango, Lemon, Coconut Water, Amaro, $17) which was created by one of our bartenders Daniel. It was served in a Spam can and was light and refreshing with a nice pop of fruit at the start, and a very nice coconut flavor. We enjoyed sitting at the bar and had great conversation with our bartenders Daniel and Monica. They also provided excellent service. Broken Compass supports payment with the InKind app which gives you 20% back (10% on Friday and Saturday) in InKind cash. We had a really great time here, and the drinks, food, décor, and atmosphere were excellent. I purchased a Hork (Horse-shaRK) mug for $50 to bring home as a souvenir. We would definitely return again when in the area.

It's like this event was made for me: First of all, it was close to home. Secondly, it was vegan. Lastly, no matter how much I was eating that day, I couldn't get full. This sounded like a good solution. Parking, the bane of any Angelenos existence, was free on the street. I was lucky and quickly found one on a residential street. I came a little early because, again, I was hungry. It gave me time to figure out by listening in to other newcomers that we needed to buy a ticket from the bar. The ticket also serves as a punch card because you only get one bowl from each vendor. It's also how you vote for your favorite because it has a QR code for that. Unsure of how things worked, I asked how many different types of chili I could try and was told "All of them." Not bad for $20 since I ended up eating 5 bowls of chili. The bowls are a little small, but times that by 5 and that's a lot of chili. I went from being so hungry to coming home so full. I wish they had given us a tray because what I wanted to do was have all 5 bowls in front of me, take a spoonful from each one, then make my decision on my favorite. What I ended up doing was precariously carrying 3 bowls on the first trip, finishing those off, and then coming back for the last 2. I was planning to eat outside, but the small patio filled up fast. I appreciate the fact that this event gave the bar a more family friendly vibe since people also brought their kids who were playing with the board games the bar had on hand anyway. This was my first time coming here and my first time going to a chili cook off, so even though I didn't stay long since I basically scarfed all 5 chili bowls down in a matter of minutes, I enjoyed myself.
