St. Paddy's Day countdown
Magnolia B.

People LOVE this place. It's the favourite haunt of a lot of Burbank barflies. I can see how it can be cosy and welcoming. The bartender is great. For me personally, it was an okay bar. I came to try Writers' Tears whiskey to see if I liked it before committing to buying a bottle. Maybe it was just the night I was there, but I was surprised at how brightly illuminated it was. I was expecting a dimly-lit dive, not all lights ablaze like a Burger King. It wasn't exactly relaxing, and if I was asked to pick a mid-scale bar in the area, I'd probably go with No Bar, where I can't see every pore on the nose of the person I'm drinking with.

Dive bar. Like, Diiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiive bar. "we-ain't-got-no-kitchen-but-you-can-order-in kinda dive-bar." Drunk regulars before noon type dive bar. Where everybody knows your name kind'a dive bar. Phenomenal Love it. 10/10 I was there prior to a noon-lead. Don't judge me. #saleslife Oh, and to top it off: The hot, urban, hippy, carefree bartender was also perfect. Thanks, Tony!!

Looking for a dive bar experience while in Burbank? Head over to the Snug and you won't be disappointed. I usually hit the Snug up when I want to catch a game in peace without the hustle and bustle . This bar is small and gets crowded fast but if you come off peak hours finding a bar stool or booth won't be a problem. The Snug doesn't have a kitchen , but they have a few snack options for purchase. This Irish style pub has a casual atmosphere with a chill vibe. The happy hour is 4pm-7pm weekdays offering $3 drinks. Plenty of draft and bottle beer options.Street parking only.

Found out that this place was a Miami Dolphins friendly bar on Sundays so I decided to check it out. The owner "Tony" greeted me as I arrived and my first impression was a good one as he is one heck of a nice guy. Great service. Fun environment. Met a bunch of new friends. Will be back for sure. :)

Don't forget your ID in the car as they will check your ID at the door. Upon entering, the atmosphere is happy, laid back, and joyous, with options for sitting at the bar, sitting in booths, or sitting in tables with chairs. Ordering is so fun, you can either walk up to the bar and place an order, or you can scan the QR code located at your table (and all are specifically numbered so they know which table ordered) and then the drinks or food magically appears a few minutes later! I love this setup and it seems to make the time between ordering and receipt of drinks really fast, seems faster than it would be if everyone lined up at the bar! I loved it. My friend ordered the Fried pickles which were SO GOOD I gluttonously ate almost all of them. Sorrynotsorry. Karaoke was off the hook, so many amazing singers, and everyone so supportive and happy to sing along with every single type of song and style. I saw online there is Trivia night on Tuesdays, and sometimes there are other special events, I would love to come back and attend and experience these. Definitely an awesome and cool bar and I can't wait to come back with friends!

The bartender was hella awesome but her cheladas lack love (water down and no flavor, just beer with a tajin rim and a tiny bit of tomato juice). My other friends were gonna have some chelas too and I was like nooooo lol, so they got palomas instead and they liked it. The cabaret show was fun and the place was packed. The staff was working so amazingly well for such a huge crowd, very impressive!!! Extremely attentive too.

Before meeting up with friends, I always check the menu to avoid the embarrassment of spending the…read moreentire lunch hour agonizing over what to order. Going in to Forman's Whiskey Tavern, I had 5 choices from the menu that looked amazing to me: 1. TAVERN SALAD with manchego, apple, candied pecans, and a champagne vinaigrette. 2. GRILLED CHEESE sweetened with butternut squash and a sage brown butter. 3. TAVERN (Impossible) BURGER with avo, arugula, pickled onion, and honey mustard dressing. 4. BISTRO (Impossible) BURGER which is like the French Onion Soup of burgers on a challah bun. 5. PATTY MELT, but I'd let my carnivorous side indulge with beef vs. Impossible meat. Thankfully the menu special that greeted me at the front door reaffirmed my choice that I should choose a burger. The Weekday Special from 12-3pm: Any Burger or Sandwich, Side of Fries or House Salad, and a pop was just $16. Plus, the bartender encouraged me that the burgers are really good. So the TAVERN BURGER with Impossible meat, a side green salad, and a lemonade needed no coin toss for me to be decisive. Ordering my meal at the bar was easy, there was no line, and service was quick. I loved that it was chill for a mid-week lunch hour. However, I imagine it gets busy later on in the afternoon and during a non-holiday week. Most of LA was already heading out to campsites for the 4th of July week from what it seemed. Beyond the burger, I really loved the fun decor. Inside, it felt like a Southern Hunting Lodge with its trophies hanging on the wall. Outdoors, it had my kind of charm with its lush greenery, flowering blooms, rustic decor, and picnic-style benches that felt like you're in someone's backyard. I'm sure the big tree in the center helps make the twinkle lights amazing at night. Plus, if you bring your furry friend (service dog) then the outdoor patio is a nice place to chill, and there's a bowl of fresh water just for them. As for drinks, there are plenty of beer choices on tap from Old Rasputin Stout to IPAs. Malbec and Opolo Zin looked enticing too. Since this is a Whiskey Tavern, there are lots of options ranging from low to high-end spirits to choose from. I recommend you take a peek at their menu beforehand to avoid deliberating for a while before choosing the one that speaks to you.

They have a full menu with food and cocktails in addition to the vast variety of beer. Didn't really take a whole lot of pictures, but this review is mainly for our bartender David. David, you were so helpful and attentive, and even let us sample some beers before committing to 16oz.

One time I was sad because they made me wait long as a solo walk-in when I let a couple go ahead of me and I walked out. So keep an eye out, it depends on who's working the front. The reason I still give them 5 stars is because they have since made up for that. It really is a beautiful place, and given that they're a relatively new establishment or a busser could have stepped in if they're busy, so just give them feedback if they need to work on things like that. The food and drinks are so unique to their place, continuing that "hidden jewel" theme. Their menu is limited but all quality food, like you're going to that friend's house and you love their recipe style. I loved the chicken sandwich the best, the crispy chicken was so juicy! Their vegetarian options are devilishly good too, with their happy face potato fritters and fried mac. For drinks, my favorite was the chocolate banana. They use real ingredients, so it really hit the spot for me. The family and kids love it, such a great vibe that you'd never expect.

This was my first time at this location, which is far smaller and cozier than the Atwater outpost, which feels more like an upscale Barney's Beanery. While Atwater boasts a crowd of 20's & 30's hunkering down for a long, boozy brunch, Burbank is a bit more family oriented, and, indeed, there were quite a few families with kids of all ages having meals while I was there. Given that difference, the drink and liquor menu in Burbank isn't nearly as extensive, but it is carefully curated, and there's a very good selection of premium sipping spirits available for those who want to add that angle to their meal. And, I might add, at very reasonable prices. The menu offers a wide variety of burgers, wings, sandwiches, salads and other casual eats, but I decided on the Mac & Cheese: a thick, creamy version with very mild cheeses in its rich sauce. You get a gentle kick of heat from a breadcrumb topping fortified with finely diced jalapeños, crispy shallots, garlic and some Tapatìo hot sauce. I found the topping to be packed with flavor and really enjoyable, while the mac & cheese below was a bit too mild for my taste and needed some further doctoring with tabletop seasoning once the breadcrumbs were gone. That said, I spied quite a few kids eating the mac & cheese without the topping, and I completely understand that the kitchen needs to streamline things. In the future, I would order extra topping and mix it all together before dishing it out, which would handily solve any deficit that I found in the bottom half of the mac. The meal was filling, so I didn't have room for their insanely good and award-winning Butterscotch Bread Pudding -- but trust me, when you come, you must order it because it is simultaneously life altering and life affirming. Yes, this is a great spot on the Magnolia business corridor to grab a meal and a good time, and you won't be disappointed.
