Not too many dives in Brea, so I definitely had to check this place out. It was a good spot for a couple of drinks and to play some tunes on the jukebox. Crowd was a little iffy. The bartender was nice. I may come back again if in the area.

Great spot to come for pre dinner or post dinner drinks. They have a wide selection from $3 beers to craft beers. Enjoyed some Blantons with my wife and went for our dinner. Highly recommended.

Good prices! Great place to catch a game. Pool tables, darts, jukebox and parking is good. I go for a quick Guinness after work.

Cool little local bar. Pool tables, darts, plenty of tvs and well priced drinks. Beers are $3 which is unheard of and some craft beers and Guinness! They have some top shelf stuff like Wellers reserve for $12 a pour which is an amazing deal. Perfect stop for a quick drink

The Shady Nook is great place for Karaoke every Thursday Night. KJ Chris is friendly, polite and gives everyone a chance to sing. Two years now and still going strong. There are pool tables and plenty of parking available as well. The bartenders are friendly too. Definitely this is the spot for Thursday night fun in Brea

Jess is my favourite bartender. I trust her to make me a tasty cocktail whenever I can't decide on what I want (which is usually the case). She has the best customer service, very attentive and friendly. Small bar but I go for the pool whenever I'm in the area. They have two diamond tables. You can bring your own food. There's a good pizza/Italian spot next door and a Mexican restaurant nearby too. Also, the cleanest women's restroom in all the bars I've been to in the area and that's a huge plus in my book.

I had a blast here when I went last year! The bartender Shayla treated my group and I with a warm welcome and had us laughing the whole time. She even introduced me to one of my favorite drinks, a shot of buttery nipple, when I asked her to make something sweet to surprise me. The place is a cool vibe, kinda feels like a western saloon, and Shayla was the cherry on top, super witty and welcoming. Next time I’m in town I’ll make sure to stop by again! Only wish there were more food options, but the snacks were a nice touch ????

I had a good time here on a Saturday night! Seriously, have never seen such a diverse crowd in my life! Every age, race, orientation. The 2 pool tables were full the entire night, unfortunately. Better put your name on the board & be able to win the table if you want to play with friends.One other thing - Google told me they had free jukebox on Saturday nights after 8pm (staff load it up with money, a review said). This was not true. The jukebox was pretty well occupied already by 8pm, so it was $1 to play a song, hopefully, at some point, or $5 to move the song to the front of the line. That's an absurd price, so I wasn't able to pick any tunes. My friends & I enjoyed some conversation & tall mugs of beer, surrounded by good energy & other people's unremarkable music selections. =)Parking: Large shopping centerWheelchair accessibility: No stairs. 2 large single restrooms.

I've been there twice in the last two weeks. Both times I could see the patrons looking at me as if I didn't belong. I'm Latino and have dark skin but I don't don't speak Spanish. I think the people next to me were surprised that when I placed my order I didn't have an accent. I tried to be friendly and engage in conversation but got the cold shoulder. The beer was good and the bartenders where friendly and accommodating. Both times there, I was the only person of color. I'm a retired first responder of 30 years and an Army veteran but I don't think it would have mattered.

Nice bar. It's a shame the new owner doubled the prices of credits on the jukebox on the app and on the jukebox itself. Assuming it was them and not the vendor. Just happens to coincide with the change of ownership.
