Feeling angry? Want to get away with kicking someone's ass, this might be the place to go. One weekend a person can get hit in the face with a mug and the next weekend chairs get broken and the bouncer gets pummeled.
As Teresa say's "take it for what it is" a dive bar, just be prepared to duck!
1 Star for the stiff drink.
The Roadhouse is, well, the Roadhouse, its a divey bar and it is super fun! These reviews are ridiculous, you people take Yelp way to seriously! Â
Take it for what it is, a fun place to have a drink or make a whole night out of it. Â I actually like the fact that there are several different age groups represented, much more fun than going to that other "house" in Victoria Gardens!
Check it out, if you hate it, leave and don't bother reviewing. lol
I came here a few times before and after this place got a make over. Â I liked it better before because the hot dogs were better, now they're smaller with a less than a delicious tasting bun. Â The pool here isn't bad. Â The bartender will give you change if you don't have quarters. Â Service is fine, they've always asked if I wanted another round, though I prefer going to the bar to get my drink. Â This bar is a pretty standard dive bar. Â There's entertainment some nights. Â Nothing really stands out about this place except that there's an older crowd.
Review Source:Loved the bar! It's the real deal! Feels more like an Irish Pub than a dive bar. Great food and the people who go here are a lot of fun. Lots of regulars. I've read a few reviews. Yep, not for the yuppie crowd. Those people need to stay down at the  Etiwanda Gardens. Lots of bars there for these people.
Review Source:Definitely a dive bar and the ladies room is really sad. The service was kinda lousy. Trying to track down a waitress was a challenge, but great energy and really great 70s rock band, called Bodie....they rocked!
No cover, decent cheap drinks. Clientele was cool 30-60 age group. I'd go back again if there's a really good band. Dance floor small, but in proportion for the club size.
This place is NASTY.  My friends and I went there to experience a dive bar.  We are in our mid twenties and felt extremely out of place as soon as we walked in, the people that go here are either recently divorced women that are in there mid 40's-+ and men the same age that stair at the old  women and maybe some guys under 30 in tell they realize that yard house is down the street  lol.  My friends and I could not stop laughing at the cougars trying to get some attention to the handful of guys under the age of 30.  All I can say is this is the bar that brings out the freaks!! Also there is NO PARKING, you will end up parking across the street and play chicken with the drunk drivers leaving there!
Review Source:This place is so hit or miss for me. Â Don't go if they having karaoke, pure torture, lol. Â Good prices on the drinks and they make em' pretty good. Â Bartenders all pretty good, i here they have good food but I only drink here. Â Really curious crowd. Â Mixed in ages all over the place. Â I like to go with a group here, that's when i have the most fun. Â Great location to the 210.
Review Source:So, this is definitely a dive bar and it has all the aspects that come with it. I've been a handful of times now and the bartenders have always been very nice and have poured our drinks strong. I'm a huge fan of people watching and this place is amazing for it. this can be a hang out for the cougars but there are younger people too. I've never had the food so I can't speak of it but I have seen other people eating it and seemed like they're enjoying it.
Review Source:When you walk in your first thought will be... Am I still in California or did I just take a warp zone to Kentucky.
Seriously this place is how i imagine Kentucky bars being. It smelt of rotten beer, vomit, and tranies! Oh and I got to see three or four people going through "the change." We got there a little after midnight and by 1am they were closing up shop. Last call on the overly priced drinks ($6.50 well drinks) was at 12:45am.
All things aside the best thing about this "bar" is that they are open, have a liquor license, and that it seems to house all the freaky middle aged people in the rancho area which keeps them out public. So I will give them 1star for housing all those freaks in one place. Thank you Roadhouse is seriously is good of you to do!
My Mom's opinion about this place: Â "I went there once and that was exactly enough for me too...hahaha."
My Boyfriends opinion about this place: Â "That place was the opitimy of not a good time. I am a filty bastard and never take showers on Sundays....even I am going to make an exception after last night....im buying an STD test too."
Nice bar, been here a few times, they always have some kinda band playing later in the night. Beer is cheap, and the bartenders are hustler's, when it gets busy.. I've been there on Mondays and Tuesday's there tacos are too bad definitely worth the $1-2.. They also play good music when there's no band..
Review Source:First of all.. not a bad spot for the 45 to 70 crowd. After all, they have a cover band on the weekends playing all the stuff they grew up on. Since there aren't so many places like this in the Inland area, you tend to get a lot of regulars.. but there is this other factor..
The Bro factor.
You ever seen these D-bags with Skin Industries shirts on? As nice as Rancho looks.. it's still in the I.E. So basically you get the low-class lifted truck types and their two-tone (bleached blonde over black) hair almost-stripper looking girlfriends (cursing dumb girls who smoke does not equal "sexy") coming in a lot. It's like Jersey Shore West! Â
The beer selection is crappy, but I understand that Bros have no discerning tastes, so I understand that no longer carrying Hargar 24's Orange Wheat Beer was probably a good business decision. God I bet  a LOT of Bud Light gets sold... so sad.  I'll drink Coke or water before I'll drink Macro-Domestics anyway. Â
I want to take a moment and respond to Brian J.
How dare you make fun of some guy in his 50s for having a hairstyle that was popular when he was 20 or so? And you had to throw weight into the equasion? Really? You are truly a piece of shit and pure White Trash. One day I'll see you in the bar, aged, fat and sporting that Skin Industries white trash wear. It will be 20 years out of style.. but you won't let go. I'll yelp about it from the gym: "watch out for this 70 year old Fat Bro.. He's holding on to his Douschey youth! Ha! What a loser!"
the 50s rocker look on guy in his 50s Vs. stupid flatbill trashy Metal Mullisha look at any age. Â I think the rocker in his 50 wins.
Anyway.. you gave a Wendy's 5 stars.. That speaks volumes. And you flip off the camera. I bet you think it's cool, but it just shows how trashy you are. If I ever see you on a college campus, you'll be cleaning toilets.
Dalton is definitely not working at this joint ahahaha, but seriously, not the best dive bar I have been to. I mean you expect to pay cheap prices at dive bars however this place charges $4 for domestic bottles. I've been to other places that charge $2. I have been here twice (one of my wolf pack buddies has a female interest who works here.) The band or bands that play here are good and play classic rock that my parents listen to. If you want to have some pricey alcohol and watch 40-50 year old white folks embarrass themselves on the dance floor this place is for you. There are 2 pool tables and the bathrooms are a borderline bio hazard. I haven't had the privilege of trying the food here. This place gets packed on Friday nights...and there was a line last time...I know right?! it seems like 3 types of people go here.
A) The its never to late for love person-late 30's to early 50's person looking to hook-up with the opposite sex you can find them at the bar.
B) The Frat Boy-white boys in there early to late 20's mainly looking to party and drink hard. you can find them at the pool tables.
C) The we can still relate to our children-white couples in their early to late 40's that are actually on a date and dress up for this place you can find them at the table or dance floor.
Oh yeah there's a guy that looks like a 70 year old version of fat Elvis, try to spot him if you can. Hope my review helps!
If your into dive bars this is a fun spot to check out, hidden in Rancho it was a fun place to hang out on a sat night with close friends and family. The bartenders were outstanding and the security guards although pretty tuff were still down to earth and awesome.
They have a pretty good selection of bar food, I personally had the fries shrimp and spinach artichoke dip which was yummy. My cousin ordered the chips and salsa and was not happy to see it was pace picante salsa (med heat) but I however loved it!! LOL
Anyhow I will be back again since I had to many shots of IDK what?? and had to leave, but the pool tables, good music, good people , and excellent bartenders will always keep me coming back :)
So I'll try to keep this simple... The ORIGINAL Baxter Dogs that Etiwanda Roadhouse had were delicious. I got to try all of them when I took pictures of the dogs. (photos: <a href="/redir?url=http%3A%2F%2Fflickr.com%2Fbesfo&s=9d75355e5a0f775a12e6a780318b1d8f26255c50512ceee73bf9888e5525fd04" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://flickr.com/besfo</a>) however, here's an inside tip: the dogs they sell now are exactly the same with a different name. The recipes was just stolen from the original inventor of the Baxter Dogs.
As for the rest of the place, the area looked dirty and run down. But I guess some people are into those kind of bars?
Went here today for the first time. I quite enjoyed myself. I like the atmosphere and the history. The front of house was ably manned by Julius. No complaints there. Clean men's restroom, clean house.
My friend enjoyed his beer, shots and finger food, but he was drunk, so horse turds would have tasted good to him. I tried a few items off the appetizer combo plate and wasn't impressed. The chicken strips were tough and dry, while the mozzarella sticks were underdone and limp, as if they'd been microwaved. They were horrible. Also, mozzarella sticks without marinara to dip them in? What's up with that? At 13 dollars, that was NOT money well spent.
I ordered a bowl of straight chili and quite enjoyed it. I would give it 4 stars out of 5. Lots of meat and the cup of diced onions on the side was capacious. The chili could do with an introduction to Mr. Cumin, if you're reading this, Julius. The spice notes were a bit on the weak side.
I'll be heading back soon for their hot dogs. Some of those choices sounded delicious. But for now, all they can squeeze out of me are 3 stars. If the hot dogs are half as good as they sound, there will be more stars a'comin.
Baxtor Dogs!
My first visit to the Etiwanda Roadhouse just happened to fall on the grand opening of Baxtor Dogs. The bar itself was the epitome of a dive bar... pool tables, dart boards and a decent jukebox. The bartenders could definitely use a little retraining. They tend to be a little slow and lose focus in between making drinks. Â But overall, the atmosphere and the cheap drinks make this a great dive bar.
Now on to the best part of my visit... The amazing bacon wrapped hot dogs! With a party of four hungry hot dog fans, each of us ordered a different dog. I, myself, had the incredible TJ Donkey Dog, a double weiner dog with beans, cheese, and salsa wrapped in a tortilla... AWESOME! I also tried three other dogs and thought they were all amazing! My favorite was the Hot Mess. It was a crazy concoction but had great flavor.
I give this place a 4 out of 5 stars. I would have given 5 but the service could definitely use some improvement.
