Idle Hour

Brunch was very good and the food yummy. I was a bit disappointed that I ordered the Wafflicious and no one told me they were out of bananas. My order was served without telling me so I had to ask. I noticed that they added blueberries so I wasn't too upset. I had terrific service from Anya. She was handling the bar and food orders and she was really on top of things. We got quick service and she still smiled throughout the whole time we were there. Ordered a couple of cocktails for us. Party of 4. We had a Berry Jam Cider, a Flower Girl, a House light lager and a SoCal Special. All were refreshing. Parking on street so not easy. Brunch cannot be ordered by QR code on table. Only at bar.

Ok, so I kind of loved this place. Just an amazing atmosphere of a funky retro dive bar which also had legit service and good bar food. It can be a bit chaotic and loud but it’s a bar so what do you expect! Get there early to find a decent table and be patient with your food orders - things may came out at different times. What a fun place to visit and hang out with a group of friends!

This awesome pub (mentioned in one of David Balldaci's) books, is a classic local gem. Great drinks, Great Happy Hour drinks and grub. Quite the History, as well and documented with great photos. All this and a wonderful staff...topped off with the Kindness of Kelly, the Bartender! Tell um Teddy sent ya 🙏

Service 5/5 our server was very sweet and kept checking on us. Ambiance 5/5 super fun vibe, love the out back/ out side and the random pipe smoking dog. Food 2-5 based on other reviews I wanted it to be better than bar food but it’s straight up have something to eat while you are drinking. Idle burger- dry and lacked flavor / seasoning Cheesesteak- please change the name. This is not a cheesesteak - this is a dry steak sandwich that has barely any cheese on it with a lot of dry bread. Fish tacos- fine Portobello steak fries- taste like dirt weird texture. Flatbread- is pizza from high school cafeteria Pretzel was the best- although was it really a homeboy pretzel? It’s not served with the amount of cheese sauce show in the photo and it’s not cheese sauce it’s like rotel dip. Now the worst part is how you order and pay for food on your phone …. So even if you want an appetizer or decide you want more sooner or later it’s all through your phone and a tip is asked for each time. We had 3 phones and each different levels of difficulty in submitting orders. It’s is fun and cute and I would possibly come back it’s just somewhere I know what to expect now. Parking is difficult.

It’s a fun venue and the back patio was lively even on a random Monday night. Unfortunately the pretzels are soft dinner rolls masquerading as pretzels with too much salt on them, not proper baked pretzels. The corn dip was much better, but I was really looking forward to a proper pretzel. The cheese dip was cold and tasted like it came from a jar, not freshly-made hot cheddar dip.

We went for their Sunday brunch. My only negative is be sure to check beforehand their Sunday events. We went when it was a dog Christmas. The animals were all beautiful. But we weren't prepared. Lol. Still food, service and drinks were very good.

Very good ambience in this place, very cool for date night. the drinks are pretty good. But what got me the most was the food that very good food here, actually, and the steak sandwich really stood out to me, perfect, medium-rare ..bread was nice and soft toasted and the arugula was fresh and just the perfect touch. My wife and I will be coming back 🔥

I am a frequent guest at idle hour and consistently appreciate the amazing atmosphere and exceptional service provided by all of the staff/team. The team delivers a wonderful experience each visit, which is why I love to continue to return. During my most recent visit, I noticed a recurring issue with the beer quality. Each of the four different beers I ordered were warm and overly foamy. On the other hand the cocktails that we had were great. Given how amazing the service and environment are, idle hour is great. Addressing the beer temperature and quality would make this venue fully deserving of a five-star rating.
