If I could give this place no stars I would. Bartender, scratch that "no liquor", beer tender had the nastiest attitude. No quarters for pool, had to go next door. 0/10 don't recommend this spot. Restrooms super dirty. read more

Came to meet my brothers here on Tuesday night and it was super chill. The bartender was really nice and attentive. The bar is nicely maintained and the bathrooms and pool area are all really clean. There was no food here but still a cool spot to have an ice cold beer. read more

Kayla is the worst I went their felt out of place I never went to a bar that I get treated so badly for the second time

I've been coming to the Stein for about a year now! Always a great time to hang with friends or for a quick drink. Owner takes great care of the bar and all of her customers. Several favorites on tap and some seltzer/bottle options available too. There are always themed events going on and my partner and I have the best time here! Not to mention, it is always fun seeing Steven!! Will continue to come here. read more

Great place to hang out, they have a good draft beer selection. The staff is friendly and the live music ROCKS, they have five bands tonight..."it's Battle of the Bands" Great Retro Music by the DJ too. read more

Recently visited this bar. Super chill and loved the atmosphere. Would definitely revisit and recommend.

Where to start 1st place was not clean I get it it's a dive bar but plz have some standards. Homeless outside definitely didn't make the place feel safe. The service wasn't much either no liquor come on plz get some spirits In The joint I'm not trying to load up on just beer. Food was nasty didn't eat much definitely didn't tip will not return. read more

We walked in, we walked right out. ‼‼beer bar and seltzers only‼‼ We drove a pretty long distance so would've been nice to know in advanced they don't serve mixed drinks. They have themed weeknights so hopefully we can comeback if they ever serve mixed drinks to actually stay long enough to enjoy the crowd. read more

This place has great potential to be a cool dive bar, to be honest, but the way the bar is operated ruins the potential. On top of that, Homeless people hangout outside with no security, and the service is soooo bad. When I came In it took 20 min for them to even ask what I wanted. I left and will never go back. I would not recommend this bar to anyone. There are plenty of bars In Whittier to go to, with much better customer service and a so much cleaner than this one. read more

I walked into this bar and immediately was not feeling it. They don't serve liquor and the bartender was rude, with extremely bad customer service. The ambience is pretty bad, with a bad homeless situation outside the door, and it's not very clean. I would not recommend going to this bar! If there were a zero stars to give, I would definitely give it negative tenfold‍ read more

Great place I enjoyed meeting the bartender there she's really sweet and nice I would totally recommend going there

Food is amazing! Service is on point. Nice atmosphere but when it's busy it's a bit crowded. read more

I don't e event know how to say this place was so bad it barely deserved one star...service was terrible and I'm not bilingual, but everyone besides me only spoke Spanish....it was difficult to have a good time here read more

Really cool little dive bar. Always have fun events here really cool vibes. The bartenders are great especially Nicole and Jenny. The owner is really cool too. Love coming here read more

Service was horrible. I usually come in with my friends, we buy each other drinks. It was my turn to buy the group drinks and when I handed my friend my $100 dollar bill to pay for said drinks, the owner, Kayla, and the bartender explain to me the $100 I handed her was fake because it did not have a UV strip that lights up when a UV flashlight hits it. Mind you I use Navy Federal, lol, and this bill was a 2006 version still in use, I know I checked because I thought maybe she was right. So I asked if they had the marker that checks if it's counterfeit, they of course said no. Ok, all good I just paid the homie instead. I come back May 3rd, 2023, try and buy some drinks hand a $50 and they do not have change for a $50. Lol like girl just tell me, "you're no longer welcome here," instead of your sly crap, I was in the Army, I'm pretty sure I can take it. Anyway, besides her being a weirdo for some reason place is aight only cus the people from Poor Denny's, Embers, Junction and Gardens stop by once in a while. read more

The bartenders were high af they overcharged us. Bad math. Don't be high at work. Ask the prices to make sure you are not overcharged.

Always stop by here on my way home from work. Chill place to have a few beers. They always have different food vendors. Saturday theme nights are always cool too. read more

Cute bartenders and strong drinks . It's always worth the visit . Emo nights , karaoke , live shows , you can never go wrong here .

Friday night they had a dj good atmosphere. Service is terrible the waitresses don't bother coming to the tables unless you flag them down . They are to busy talking to the male customers (friends) and forget about the customers on the small tables so we left. read more

Won't be coming back to this place. The service is slow, no liquor, I mean who doesn't accept Apple Pay now a days? I sat at the bar and never once did they engage in conversation just served my drink and walked away! read more

I moved to Whittier about a year ago and I have yet to find a good dive bar with good beer and good music, that was until I came across this gem. It was a Saturday night when my friends and I decided to check this place out. As soon as we walked in, we heard some really good alternative music playing, turns out we showed up on emo night. We had an absolute blast there. They have a theme for everyday of the week. There isn't any bars that have themes around the area so I love this! Since then we've been coming every weekend enjoying the different events they have. So awesome to have a bar like this in Whittier! Shout out Kayla! You have a good thing going here! read more

Local and-small hole in the wall bar that is next to a liquor store and a Jack in the Box. Canned beers are $6 and draft is $7. They do have a single pool table and a food vendor in the back parking lot who makes tacos. They also have a 2x4 Jenga tower to play as well. Restrooms were dirty and leaking water onto the floor. Some nights they have a DJ who plays hit songs. Crowd appears to be 40+ and local. The blonde bartender provided good and fast service. Overall the bar is not impressive and its saving grace is that it's the only bar in the area. read more

Great vibes, good drinks, will be coming again for sure !!!! I plan to meet up with friends here again since it's our halfway point. So glad it's here bc I love it so much!!!! read more

Good last minute stop. We went in on a Monday at 12:15 am hoping to catch last call. It turns out they closed at 12. The cocktail waitress was very polite and managed to get the job done quickly but we had to flee the scene . Overall, good ambience and vibes. read more

On a Sunday late afternoon of bar hopping because we were bored, & wanted to explore what our city had to offer, I finally made it inside. Sundays are definitely not a day to go in expecting a lot. It was so dead, there was just the bartender, maybe another worker, I couldn't tell & maybe one or two customers and then us. Surprised they had Blue Moon. No draft, just bottled beer and hard liquor (I don't think they have wine either, again couldn't tell). They offered peanuts & saw a couple of tv's. Bathrooms were clean (surprise, surprise my family & I have history there, one my father was a longtime patron from mid 70's to mid 80's till he stopped drinking. Two, my brother knew the owner(s) pretty well during that time and three, we all helped out my brother & mother cleaning it and yeah those bathrooms were nastier in those days) The experience in the bar (yea I was a kid going in w/her dad while he drank a beer on an errand for my mom....interesting back then kids were allowed in some bars as long as they were w/their parents) Anyhow remember it was a little more filled in w/old timers, mixed races and bartenders were friendly and inviting. Old school people usually are more receptive. They even had picked eggs, pickled pigs feet, polish dogs, old popcorn maker, etc. Man times have a changed since..... It wasn't too bad, but my honest feeling was the atmosphere was "dry". Didn't exactly feel welcomed (wasn't expecting a welcome crew either) but it felt "bleh" being there. So if you just want a quick pit stop to grab a beer and run, this would be it. Again my review was based on a lazy late Sunday afternoon. Well it does state Fri/Sat nights are better - although judging by the female bartender's mannerism & dress gave off the vibe that they probably have "Fichera's" on their best nites of business, well I'm sure some of you fellas/hombres have already experience that at the cantina's in Baja & plenty of little dives out here as well. Also, on front of their building, behind the sign has graffiti & has been tagged for almost a year now, It's says something about the end of earth or something..... Finally, I take back from my previous review what I said about Embers Lounge & Poor Denny's. They were actually a better experience (for Sunday). read more
