The Pass Pub & Grill is a place that delivers decent food, strong drinks, and a laid-back, welcoming atmosphere. Whether you're stopping in for a casual meal or catching up with friends over drinks you will have decent experience. However, the water right now is trash! Tasted like pine-Sol. Which is not their fault as the city is undergoing filtration problems The menu offers classic pub fare with decent ingredients and generous portions. The the wings are packed with flavor, and the fries are perfectly crispy. The service is friendly and attentive, making you feel right at home. read more

Stephanie is the absolute best!!! She just celebrated an anniversary with y'all, I believe! She made me wear a party hat, and it she made my night, to say the least. 100% Will be back again. Maybe 10 years later, but I'll be back! Thank you, Stephanie, for being a baddie! read more

The bartenders were amazing and worth the trip alone. They made a couple out of towners feel welcome. We had the ravioli and the Nachos. Would recommend the nachos. The ravioli were just frozen deep fried pieces of cardboard. Nice little bar with gambling machines available and they have a patio for outside eating. read more

Great salads. Good prices. Fun servers. Just a good place to go. Sit enjoy have a good time read more

I had the misfortune of visiting The Pass and it was disgusting. When my husband tried to order a drink using his military ID, the staff acted like he was trying to pull a fast one, with the ID being vertical. They flat-out refused to serve him with their reasoning simply being his ID is vertical. They were not understanding at all. It's appalling that a place would turn away a veteran for using a military ID. Bartenders should do more research into ID's. If you're looking for a bar that values its patrons, steer clear of this one. There are plenty of places that appreciate the troops--this isn't one of them. read more

Wow! What a great place. My gyro burger was terrific and the wait staff is as friendly and efficient as they come.

My favorite item is the Buffalo chicken salad. It is very good and their ranch is prime midwestern ranch. I also really like their pretzel bites appetizer that is served with cheese sauce. Staff and friendly and the drinks are cold, sometimes they even have drunk gummy bears! read more

Cute place to hang out fir a bit with super friendly servers. Hubs and me visited for lunch recently. I had their Southwest Cobb salad with grilled chicken ($11) and BBQ ranch dressing. It was just ok - no bread with it, nice crunchy Romaine and the fire roasted corn was from a can. Hubs had their 1/3 lb burger and homemade chips. I tried a bite and the burger was really good. We noticed specials info from their FB pg including $5 hamburger basket and $5 domestic draft beer pitchers on some days so a great deal! We'll check it out again for some adult beverages and try some other menu items. They offer quite a good selection of appetizers to chase down with beer. read more

I really had a craving for a burger. This place had good review on Yelp and great reviews on google. I could not have been more disappointed. Terrible beer selection, to start. I ordered a bacon blue cheese burger. I couldn't taste the bacon or the cheese. If the burger had been cooked 30 seconds more, it would have been ash. It was a tasteless, thin, hard burger. Why didn't I go to Culver's or Meathead's? Hell, I should have gone to McDonald's! Ugh, never again.! read more

Great place to go after a nice steak from Jim's Steakhouse right next. The Bartenders at The Pass are great and fun

Passing though on our Drive Home from Flordia. We always look for anything other than a chain where we can get a good sandwich and local Beer. Well let me tell you, we picked a great spot. Super friendly staff and amazing food. I had the buffalo shrimp wrap. Super fresh and packed with amazing shrimp!! My husband had their fried chicken sandwich with their Pass out sauce. He loved it. WE WILL BE BACK! read more

So glad I found this place to watch my 49ers! Great food, staff and new friends. What more could a girl ask for?

Best salads ever! Typically, I would never order a salad at a bar, but this place has the best reputation for salads and trust me, it is earned! Service is great! read more

Good service. Good food! I look for the specials on Facebook before I order off the menu. I also like that they still cook past 9pm. We tend to eat a late supper. read more

Great lunch! I ordered the nachos, my husband had the Ruben, we also had the cheeses balls, and fried pickle spears all of which we loved! Service was outstanding! I wish we lived here, we'd be regulars!!! read more

Great salad and the fried avocado is delicious! The owner was very friendly and made sure everything was good. We'll definitely be back.

On recommendations from friends we tried The Pass for the first time tonight. That was some delicious bar food! The burgers were perfect. I liked the chips. Even after a drive home across town they were still super crunchy. The jalapeño corn bites have some HEAT. I was glad they came with a really yummy ranch. The garlic cheese bites also have a lot of flavor; no vampires tonight. The pass out fries did not have one dry fry: Delicious pork, plenty of cheese and family friendly BBQ sauce. We will do this again. -- at The PASS Pub & Grill. read more

Really solid place here. It's kind of a towny bar with really good apps. We enjoyed the loaded cheese fries, GARLIC cheese curds, fried pickles and pretzels with beer cheese. Great local place! The owners were serving us which was super fun to see. All n all cool place, would go back. read more

Just opened and running like it's been here forever. This place is great. When everything is great it's hard to pick what to praise. Stop in for a beer or food u can't go wrong read more

Had a less than pleasant experience when I visited. Would never consider returning. The server who I believe was also the owner was extremely rude to the point where we decided to leave after only drinks were ordered. Mistakes in the kitchen or slow service can of course happen anywhere and I will always be understanding of that but being rude to customers is not acceptable. read more

Had great service and food came out fast. The parking lot is crowded but you can park in back which is nice. I had there loaded potatoe soup and I would go back just for that, great comfort food! Always got a fried chicken wrap that was crispy and fresh! read more

Great food and fantastic atmosphere and staff!

We have ordered wings twice from this place and we have decided these are now the best in town. Looking forward to trying other menu items. Also a good place to stop by for a drink outdoors. Indoors was a bit too crowded for my comfort. read more

Had a casual get together with some coworkers there this evening and had a really nice time. It wasn't very crowded so it was nice to be able to hear each other's conversations, but was busy enough to have a nice vibe. Had a bunch of bar type appetizers... Tacos, pretzels, onion rings, and a couple of different types of wings and they did not disappoint. Nice place. read more

I have tried almost EVERYTHING on the menu. I love it all, and very reasonably priced. The atmosphere is upscale without being intimidating. The staff though! Every person there is always happy to see you! I love it so much! Cant wait for my next visit. read more
