    Walked in and heard country music. That was the first offputting thing. Ordered a Guinness, no 2-step pouring process. She brought me the beer still trying to settle. 2nd and 3rd, the beer wasn't cold enough. Fast forward to the menu, burgers aren't exactly "traditional" Irish dishes BUT I ordered a chicken pot pie, essentially. Here is where they redeemed themselves for sure. Big hearty chunks of chicken, potatoes and carrots. Upon cutting through the flaky crust, the aroma was so delicious it was almost enough for me to want to burn myself to wolf it down. Flaky crust was so buttery that it almost tasted cheesy. Needless to say, I ate all the crust and tried my hardest to finish it all. It beat me. Tried another tepid beer. All in all, def go for the food maybe I will just get a beer from the fridge next time.

    This was a first time visit to this awesome pub. It’s very convenient near our residence, Great service and bar tender was quick and wonderful. They have a variety of nice small shareable appetizers (or tapas). I definitely will return. Thank you.

    I've been coming here since i was a young lad. I hate to say this cause I used to like eating here but it was horrible the fish was soggy and greasy the fries were cold and hard the paper it was served on kept tearing so I couldnt tell if I was eating paper or fish. And on top of that its 20 dollars now instead of 17 and there its no more coleslaw? I hope the manager will contact me and make it up. Cause it sucked. Waitresses were at least nice.

    Great atmosphere for American football lovers I got all the rules explained before the end of the first quarter. Also why the Packers wear a cheese hat. To have a place with that many Belgian beers on tap is hard to find in most European cities so... chapeau bas. 🥇

    Place is great! Always love coming here. Staff is very knowledgeable with their alcohol. Food is always on par. Not much to say!

    I'm here pretty often and service is great. They will bring your pets water and take take your order fairly quickly. They have a pretty good selection of beer and I've only tried about 6 things on their menu but they're all very good. I wish I had more more T v's with sound but over overall a great place to watch sports. I Usually enjoy their patio area.

    What a cool place to meet and have drinks. As you step to the bar you see all the beer that they have on tap. Beer from all around the globe. Let the taste testing begin.

    Lucky Baldwin's has some of the best pub food around. The service is friendly, and the dining room is comfortable. The steak and mushroom pie is worth a trip.

  • 5/5 Brittanie Adaire H. 1 year ago on Google • 135 reviews
    This is one of my fave pubs in Pasadena. They have such a vast and good beer selection. They are reasonably priced, they have food and happy hour as well. It's a nice place to hang out and have a beer with friends. I always find something on the beer menu that I love. They also offer bottled beers. The Trappiste location has liquor and beer, the old Town location is just beer. Trappiste has its own parking lot, old Town is metered street parking or a parking garage.

    A large work group met at Lucky Baldwin's, and our reservation included about three tables. We should have reserved more because we were not allowed to add more tables to our collection. The food was amazing (had a burger), and soda is not on tap (can and glass with ice). There are non-alcoholic beverage choices and plenty of parking in the rear of the building.

    Open for breakfast on weekends. Go visit Annalee on Sunday mornings. Fancy beer! No domestic. Full Bar.

  • 5/5 Bob D. 5 months ago on Google
    Good Americanized version of a British pub. Offers a wide selection of traditional and craft beer, full bar, with a variety of English pub grub. Plenty of TVs for sports viewing on match day.

    Great food great service & a perfect lemon drop Martini,can't wait to go back. (Cornish Pasty Chip's & peas)( Steak & mushroom pie chip's & peas) Oh & i forgot about the delicious giant sausage roll we had as an appetizer.

    This place has a great atmosphere, friendly people, if you are ever unsure on what drink to get the staff is excellent with picking one out to best match your taste. They like to mix things up through there trivia nights, taco Tuesdays, and beer fest that they host. Overall if your looking for a good place to relax and have a beer then this is your place.

    Really nice Pub. Variety of beer. I personally like Belgium Beer and they had good variety

  • 5/5 Diana G. 6 months ago on Google
    Heffenweizen, fish and chips. Huge portion of fish that was fried perfectly. The hefe was citrus-y and delightful apart from a missing orange slice. What's the deal with that, do pubs and restaurants just not do orange slices on the glass for hefes anymore?? Still fantastic food service and atmosphere.

    Had a cozy Saturday night with a good friend last night. Everything tasted amazing, and our server was incredibly nice and cool. They even told me about a vegan option that wasn't on the menu. It's very hard to find a vegan entree at a pub, but it was delicious!!! Highly recommend this place for a nice meal or drink :)

    Great variety of beers on tap and staff was awesome, Loved this place! Can't remember the name of the Heffeweizen beer but definitely I appreciate that they have it on tap!

    As a long time customer, about 2 months ago I ordered the Fish N Chips here and when I got home the batter was slightly undercooked. You know, that batter texture, anyway I ate it and it was good! Last week I called and talked to Ryan and asked how I should order the fish n chips to insure they were cooked well, but not well done. He told me how sorry he was and said that with recent changes in staff that it shouldn't be an issue. I ordered the fish and chips not looking for anything at all for free, along with a couple of their delicious French Dip sandwiches. When I arrived to pickup the order Ryan had "no charged" me the fish N chips!! I told him that was OK but wanted to pay for the food but he insisted...The food was fantastic!!...well, its Friday, time to order some more Fish N chips!! Thanks again Ryan!! A Loyal Customer Steve.

    Fish and chips were good with a large portion of fish and lightly breaded. Great service with a good vibe. Good beer selection.

  • 5/5 Marco D. 2 years ago on Google
    Nice neighborhood place. Great selection of beers. Took my mother here yesterday. She had the fish and chips. asked for peas instead of chips and they were happy to do so. Also had the Irish Nachos which were great. The meat they used was cooked well. I had the Chicken Curry. Great taste. I needed an extra portion of rice. Service is good.

  • 3/5 Karen L L. 2 years ago on Google
    When we were there they didn't have very much seating available due to a private party. They were busy and the service was slow. The food was so so. I had the Steak and Guinness meat pie. The presentation was nice but the meat was beyond over cooked. It wasn't the best place to take out of town guests.

    Love this place. Come back to it every chance I get. Poured Guinness. Lovely. Food is excellent. Missing some selections coz of supply chain issues and COVID restrictions. Love the LB burger. Curry chicken. Fish and Chips. Even the chicken strips are good. Come here if you want good beer

    My husband and I have passed by Lucky Baldwins for many years and yet never really thought of stopping in. Pre Covid this establishment was featured on a weekend travel/ food show as best place to visit in Pasadena. Moving forward this past weekend we decided to drop in for lunch and what a great treat it was. Our server Tatiana was Amazing and kind at helping us decide on Fish and chips- AWESOME- with a Mixed Berry pie for desert. Service and food A+ for us. We will definitely frequent Lucky Baldwins moving forward. Thanks again Tatiana!!

    This review is long overdue - we are so lucky to live so close that Lucky Baldwins is our neighbourhood pub. Beer selection could not be better, but what really makes it is the service. We have received exceptional recommendations from Kristin, Tatiana, and Ryan - it is so amazing to walk in and be greeted with the newest IPA recommendations.

  • 4/5 Michael K. 1 year ago on Google
    Long time Pasadena pub. I hadn't been there in years. Had fish & chips. The fish was good. The chips were ok. I didn't have a beer because they have the one I wanted and they charge $2 to sample. I have traveled the world and never had a bar charge me to sample a beer on draft. Not cool. Therefore I had water. Only four stars.

  • 5/5 CT D. 2 years ago on Google
    An extension of the original Lucky Baldwin's, this spot focuses a bit more directly on Belgian and Belgian-inspired beers, while retaining a distinct British accent. It's a comfy spot to catch a game with some tasty brews.

  • 5/5 David T. 6 years ago on Google
    Excellent beer selection and delicious British pub food. The fish and chips are some of the best I've had. The fish is perfectly cooked and not dried out like many places, and the breading isn't too heavy or oily. The steak and Guinness meat pie is also worth a try. Occasionally they run out of some beer offerings but there are so many choices that shouldn't bother anyone. I've never had anything less than great service, even during busy evenings.

  • 4/5 K J. 2 years ago on Google
    I love this pub! Huge menu of beer. Good food. Had the French dip and sour beer.

  • 5/5 Karen C. 2 years ago on Google
