Barney’s Beanery Santa Monica

Nice place to hang out. Good vibes. Big food portions and nice drinks.

The menus a bit oversized, and there's a lot of screens everywhere you look which is distracting. The waiter was great though when we asked about gluten free options, extremely informative.

Great service & atmosphere.

Been there couple of times. Food is good and mostly good experiences.
The last time the guy at the door threw a little tantrum because we wanted to change tables to another one that just got available, because of course is harder to sit people in the table with no shade, not surprise it was the only one with no people in it.
I understand you are busy and at the end he agreed, but the guys attitude was not it. If you don't want people wanting to change seats put another umbrella in there, I don’t like eating under the scorching sun lol. Also what the deal with not using half of the restaurant in the inside ? You tell people they have to wait 40 minutes to eat inside but you don’t use half of the most interesting part of your establishment.

Service and atmosphere are good but food is terrible.
I ordered hot wings and left some of them untouched while I was hungry.
The worst wings I've ever had.

Can’t sit at outside tables unless you’re “eating”

Great place to chill and watch a game. Service was outstanding and food spot on.

Tried a variety of beers, the chili, a couple of burgers, and even the pizza—everything was solid. The guy who served us was sharp and quick, keeping things moving smoothly despite the busy vibe. Overall, a great spot for a casual meal and some good drinks. Would definitely come back.

Place is beautiful, Food is good. Service is disappointing ; we noticed waitresses seem to run everywhere except to people calling them to order or ask the bill ( we were sitting outside so maybe that’s the reason because we noticed some other customers around us becoming impatient) ; the one who seems to be the manager is the opposite of smiling face.

Jessica is AMAZING. We hosted an event for our company with her help and it could not have been more fantastic. The space was fun, clean, and comfortable for a huge party. The wait staff (I think named Gaby and Jazmine, apologies if Im recalling wrong!) were also amazing. I can't recommend Barney's enough for events or just a bite to eat. Overall a wonderful experience I will happily be returning to as will many of my coworkers!

Excellent carne asada, big ass beers, and like 40 taps. How could you go wrong??? Everything was excellent, friendly service, and the food came out fast.

“Sports Bar” is laughable. Showed up ealy to watch an east coast college game. We were the only people there for 3 HOURS and they wouldn’t change the sound to our game. I’m sure they were hoping for someone to come in to hear “Girlfriend in a Coma” or “Boys Don’t cry” rather than a football game.

We also had to approach our server 3 times to order things while they wrapped silverware.

The only reason I gave it 3 Stars is because my Mom's hamburger looked like a kids happy meal.it was small and my Mother doesn't like a lot of condiments. Just ketchup and cheese. So she wasn't gonna say anything but after a few bites she said it had a funny taste. So I looked at it and it also had a funny smell. They didn't charge us for it and gave my mom a chocolate shake on the house cause she had lost her appetite. But to allow that to come out of the kitchen like that makes me wonder. That was my first time at that location. I've been to the one in Burbank and it was always too much food.

Parking: It's located 2 store fronts from the corner on a promenade. So to park you have to drive around or use a parking app.

We were going to eat here, but then the server arrived at the table and we decided to pass.
