Just moved into the area. The Pint Size Lounge is the closest bar to my house. This place reminds me of my hometown in Cleveland. That's a good thing. Down to earth bartender and clientele. In regards to the 1 star review above. I just met the bartendress in question and witnessed her going way way above and beyond the cs of duty getting a drunk patron home. She personally drove the girl home. 5 stars. Boom.
Review Source:Love this little secret hidden on the west end of San Rafael.  The art alone can keep you entertained while sculling some pints of their small but solid collection of beers on draft.  (The clown  art work can be scary, so warning to all you coulrophobics!).
They have a pool table and big screen TV to entertain you, or you can hide in one of the dark corners for some privacy. Â Either way, great entertainment is almost guaranteed and if not, you can commandeer the digital jukebox and watch people's reactions to your selections (hehehe).
The worst bar experience I have ever had. Â My girlfriend goes to the bathroom after saying shes not feeling so well. Â The bartender furiously chases after her yelling " No, No, No....you're not f***ing puking in my bar. Â It's not my job to clean it up." Â When i calmly go to defend my girlfriend to resolve the situation I get verbally attacked by the bartender and some locals that are sitting at the bar. Â The situation quickly escalates, but could have been easily resolved. However, the bartender made no attempts to calm anyone down, instead she contributes by yelling at us even more. Â Not a good idea with a bunch of drunk males and no bouncer. Â While we attempt to leave the bar one of the locals came outside looking for a fight. Â COMPLETE MADNESS!!! Uncivilized, unprofessional, and unworthy of my time or my money. Â Never coming back again.
