Wanted to keep enjoying the Big Bear Vibe on a Monday during the Christmas Season. Most places close at 9pm. This place is open till 12pm. They have a really great spirit selection. Music is right up the millennial alley. They got pool tables. But ny favorite part as a lady the bathrooms were CLEAN!

Really disappointed with this place. Spent $200 on drinks for the night and every single one tasted like soda.
Ordered a Long Island Iced Tea — you know, the drink that’s supposed to hit you and make you say “wow.” Instead, my wife drank the whole thing thinking it was juice. That tells you everything you need to know.
At these prices, you expect properly made cocktails, not something that tastes like it came out of a fountain machine.
The DJ needs to read the room better — play what people actually want to hear and you’d get more folks on the dance floor and more customers coming back.
Oh, and the foosball table? Missing balls but they still charge full price to play. Fix your equipment or don’t charge for it.
The pool table was a lot of fun though — worked quick and smooth, no issues there.
I’ll give them this — service was fast enough. But when you’re basically serving soda I could get from a can at home, that’s not saying much.

We stopped tonight to have dinner only to find out the kitchen had closed at least 1.5 hours before normal closing time. According to the bartender, it was a slow night, so the cook went home. Not starting out well and this place is so dark inside. We then decided to maybe have a drink before going to another restaurant and after a quick look at the prices, we headed out the door. Serious, that much for a glass of beer, now we know why there was only one person at the bar and a group of four playing pool. This place is a good size and to have no one there, even on a Wednesday night, was pretty revealing to say the least. There is free parking in front of the bar and more at the back of the business. The bar has a dance floor and pool tables, and we heard they have music on the weekend. We should note that the bartender was very polite and apologized that the kitchen had closed early. Well at least we know on our next trip to Big Bear Lake we will not be dining or drinking here.

Brought the team here following a day of snowboarding. I must express my disappointment with the experience.
The atmosphere was far from welcoming, and the prices were exorbitant, especially considering the subpar quality. Cash-only bar – what does that tell you?
The so-called “customer service” was lacking, and the owner’s behaviour in his own establishment was quite concerning. It’s truly perplexing how someone who owns a bar could struggle to manage their alcohol intake or the welfare of patrons. I understand showing locals/regulars appreciation, but from my experience, the employees seem to over-serve patrons who appear to have had enough. I know at a bar it’s normal to see belligerence, but this was unreal…
My colleague (who used to be a patron here) mentioned she stays away from this place after the college kid that fell in Big Bear Lake last year left the bar visibly overly intoxicated…
This establishment is not on our list for future company outings.

Best bar but very high prices especially for what they are serving. Our friends wanted to take us as we had never been and they wanted us to take the duck fart shot off the ski. It was fun but I had to tell the bartender how to make the shot which is a little wierd bc I was told it’s their specialty shot? The fire pit outback was very very nice but the vibe was not great and the security is questionable. We heard one of them telling someone he loved to fight, security should always try to calm down any issues not work people up more. We did get a receipt and it’s pretty shocking they would charge $13 per shot for a shot made with Jameson, baileys and Kaluah.

BEWARE: This venue is not safe late at night. Either the alcohol being served is compromised, or there are dangerous individuals inside that security fails to monitor. After only two drinks, my partner began exhibiting alarming symptoms consistent with drugging or poisoning. When I rushed to get her water, hoping to stabilize her, the bartender demanded $1.25 for a cup of tap water. Anyone in the service industry knows charging for tap water—especially in a medical distress situation—is indefensible. I strongly urge others to avoid this place after dark. Luckily I was able to take my significant other to the hospital after this, so I strongly urge WOMEN in particular should not come without someone they trust to protect them, because the staff and security clearly will not.

Great time here with my gf for new years eve! Owner is a great guy, thank you for those last minute excellent tallow fries! We highly recommend this place for great food, drinks, dance and fun times!

Price gouging completely ruining mood. Ordered a basket and fries for the table at $8 and received a paper tray with 11 little wedges and condiments in packets. Drinks are cash only with a $5 ATM charge and food is charged separately. Atmosphere is great but I’m not having fun

Way too expensive! Big Bear is never expensive. But I felt this one was too expensive. Maybe 3 times expensive than places like vegas. If someone takes couple of shots will have to leave their pocket dry. That too they only accept cash.

Don’t have really much bad to say about this place. But then again I don’t have much good to say. Had to go through the security check on the way in. Hey, this is Big Bear, is there problems here? We went in just for drinks and only had one because of the super high prices! I’ve been to bars in major big cities that charged less.
This is a big bar with pool tables and a huge outdoor patio in back. There are several corn-hole games setup for you to play.
So all in all, we were not impressed and will not be going back anytime soon.
