Rum Barrel

“My friend and I did not order any food or appetizers, but our drinks were excellent. She ordered an old-fashioned and I ordered the drink. I saw another patron order. I thought it was frilly and looked appealing. The drink was very tasty and had a kick to it. We went on a Friday night and the service was a little slow but not unexpectedly so. We found a corner spot and had a great time talking and catching up. The inside is very comfortable and cozy with an artistic arrangement of abstract and colorful art that transport you to a different place. I’m looking forward to going back. Prices were very reasonable.“

O'Hennings Bar • $$
1312 Airport Dr, Bakersfield

“O'Hennings is truly a hidden gem. I tend to go either Tuesday or Wednesday nights. The bartender, Sheila, is the sweetest person. The drinks were poured perfectly, and she got everyone at the bar to play games. Due to its location, I was sort of hesitant to go in, but once you step inside, it's very inviting and calm. The parking lot is well lit, and theres a Taco truck right outside with their own seating area, or you can take your food into the bar. The only downside is that it's kind of dated inside.“

Eclipse Azul Kitchen & Lounge Lounges •
1410 Wible Rd #101, Bakersfield

“Found this place by chance. It was late and most places have their kitchen closed. For a lounge, their food is very good. We found their management and staff to be very friendly and attentive. The place itself was very nice, clean, and the music wasn't too loud. Their drinks were very good and food were fairly priced. I would definitely recommend coming here. If you're out late looking for food or a drink out with friends, this place is a must try. I recommend The Sampler plate to start with and the Chloe for the ladies. As for an entree, the ribs were very good. We will be here again, very soon.“

Golden West Casino Cocktail Bar • $$
1001 S Union Ave, Bakersfield

“Yesterday I played baccarat there. I was playing on my table and jumping to bet only bonus on the other table 2-3 times the third times after I left my bet on bonus and walked away Coco the deal called me hey ma’am or miss I’m not sure saying “after you bet you should tell me to move your bet” with her anger face. I’m like do I need to tell you? After I put my bet and walked away? I didn’t sit there and play with you! It’s common sense that you should know and move it yourself when there’s no base bet there and only 2 ppl play at that table what’s hard for you to just move it? And idk if it’s my job to tell dealers to move it every time that i don’t put base bet. That 2 ppl they sit at the end of the table and I just put on the spot that close to me. Anyway it’s not a big deal it just killed my mood. Later she came to deal on my table I just walked away as soon as she sat down ohh well good luck with your smiling face! 5 stars is for many good things of this casino not for dealer!!!“
