10 Best Gastropubs near Upland

“Ashley, Chelsey, Mike, and Kelly are awesome. Great place to be! 🙂👍“

“My husband and I have been to The Back Abbey in Claremont, but we recently came to the one in Upland for the first time.

We came during the weekend when they have their brunch menu available. A plus for us is that they have an outdoor patio that's dog friendly. We arrived a little after 10:00am with two of our dogs. We were immediately greeted and told that we could pick any table we wanted.

There's actually a very nice view from the outdoor patio. We were trying to eat a little cleaner after the holidays so we both got water and both ordered the Steak Salad ($18.00) and added avocado for an additional charge. The Steak Salad comes with grilled beef tenderloin, mixed greens, peppadew peppers, red onions, and feta cheese dressed in sun-dried tomato vinagrette. It was very good.

Our server checked on us several times, refilled our waters, and asked if our dogs wanted a water bowl. They had a lot of items on their brunch menu that sounded really good so next time, I will have to try more items.“

“Best Korean street food restaurant in Chino Hills!! It's our favorite spot!! Chef Kenny's cooking is always on point. Servers (I'd name everyone but some of them are sadly gone) are always so attentive and welcoming, including the owner Jack who also acknowledges us when he is there. It makes us feel special when they remember their regulars. Love the vibe here and would at least come once a week with no regrets!! See you soon again ya'll :)“

“You can always get a great beverage and meal at The back Abbey.“

“Pretty good selection of micro-brews. It may be a little smaller than the offering they had when they were located a few doors down at the corner of Gary & 2nd, but it's good enough. I've now forgotten the wheat ale I ordered, but it was local and it was good. The brisket sandwich I ordered was outstanding. We must have hit the bartender at a bad moment because when we arrived he didn't seem too keen on our arrival. When I asked what beer was new or something he could recommend, he kind of blew me off. Thought it kind of odd. But, he did come around and grew pretty chill as our lunch progressed. Chalk it up to a bad moment that I don't think had anything to do with us. All in all, I like the Rookery; hanging out on the back patio with a microbrew and a sandwich was exactly what I was looking for.“

“The food was great! It seems to be a pretty popular place. A few people sat outside and just ordered drinks and appetizers, which I might do next time. The only negative was that the service was extremely slow. However, I feel that they were understaffed or just short-staffed that evening. Our waiter was hustling back and forth from inside to outside (we were outside) and was doing his best. It took a while to get refills on drinks, but the food came pretty quickly.“

“Our first time here and was a Fantastic experience thanks to Our phenomenal server Jordan that gave us great recommendations and service with a smile!!! We were eating before going to The Mens Soccer Game LaVerne vs our team visiting from University of Redlands. We were so satisfied with everything!!! Loved it and will definitely come back!!! Thanks again Jordan!!!“

“Quality food and service.“

“Last weekend we had a retirement party at Etiwanda Roadhouse. We rented out 1/2 the backyard for 75-100 guests. Courtney (organizer) was in constant contact with us in setting up this event. The party went great and smooth. Our servers were Oscar and Tatiana for drink and food service. Both were excellent at making it an enjoyable experience. Honestly, that really means something, these days. The Taco Man option worked out great. Thanks for making the day enjoyable and easy. 👍“

“Booked my birthday party here! Reserved the second floor which had plenty of space and enough games to keep everyone occupied. The service was excellent and venue very clean. Private bathrooms a plus. Great for 20+ parties. Amber the event manager was super helpful in booking the event and tailoring to fit my needs, Enrique the manager, Lamont the bartender and Natalia our server were all EXCELLENT!! I never leave reviews but they were so awesome and made the party so perfect I had to share my experience. Everyone was so friendly they even let us extend our booking since we were all having such a great time and we didnt want the party to end yet! Our family had the best time and nothing but good things to say about the staff! Will definitely book another event here!!!!“
