We visited this cozy bar for a private, post-wedding brunch. We had the carne asada breakfast burrito, but in a bowl, a Philly breakfast burrito and an espresso Martini. The food was delicious and filling. The portions were generous, as well. The espresso martini was presented perfectly and tasted delicious, with the right amount of strength. They had several TVs with the football games of the groom's choosing. They are located right next to a cheap parking structure. We entered from the back, and there were stairs to get into the building but not the patio. The seats were high tables with bar chairs/stools. It did get hot in the small room we were in, but they had a fan going.

Apparently the staff aren’t aware of acceptable identification. I brought a government issued passport card and was told by the blonde wearing “bar babes” shirt that she’d let it slide and not to tell, but they can’t accept the same ID I’ve used to drink here since I started coming after work in 2024.

This was our second time at KingsRow, and while the food was amazing again — wings, fries, and Philly cheesesteak were all delicious — the overall experience this visit left us disappointed. The self-ordering system with QR codes is convenient, and the servers who brought out our food and drinks were friendly and helpful. We tried several beers as a group of seven, and everything on that end was enjoyable.
However, there were two big issues. First, the lower floor had a noticeable humid/sewage smell. It wasn’t unbearable, but definitely distracting and took away from the atmosphere.
The bigger issue, though, was at the bar. My brother and a friend asked the bartender (an older gentleman) if they could order a Jägerbomb. Instead of politely explaining that it wasn’t available, he snapped and answered very rudely — basically telling them to “look at the menu” in a dismissive tone. This was especially frustrating because the bar is fully stocked, and his attitude felt unnecessary and unprofessional. It honestly ruined the vibe of the evening.
We had been looking forward to coming back and had even recommended this spot to others, but after being treated that way, we’ve decided we won’t be returning. Great food and friendly servers, but hospitality at the bar was a real letdown.

Excellent sports bar! Nice lay out with a very cool patio facing the alley. Very good menu with breakfast burritos all day. Kids are welcomed during the day. Sometimes they have live music or a DJ on Saturday. Very good service. Bartender Gia is my favorite. Also a LAFC home bar.

Great Pasadena spot! Many beers to choose from. Plus live sports vibe atmosphere. Downside is no DJ but upside is Digital jukebox

I don’t even know why I m giving 2 stars. Maybe because you are open. The wine was awful. Service non existent, borderline rude. I’ll never be back.
I came here just for chips and salsa just to find out they discontinued it.

I forget that you can just walk into a bar, get a beer, drink it in under a minute, and then leave. I had no intention of coming here, but when I was walking the other night I suddenly wanted a beer and less than five minutes later I was walking out of Kings Row with a smile on my face and a stomach full of €65 per oz beer. Truly felt European that night.

A boring place, we sat for several minutes and nobody attended us until I stopped at the bar.

It's a great little gastropub in Old Town Pasadena. They have an excellent selection of beers. Their food is pretty decent. It's just okay. They have a mini arcade in the basement area. All in all good place to meet up with friends for a drink or to spend a happy hour
Way to loud. While I am not from LA, I felt over $37 for a burger, fries, soft drink with tax and tip as being a bit much.
The drinks were delicious and the environment is so inviting. Would definitely recommend.
