Shady Nook - Bar in Brea - 151 S Kraemer Blvd, USA

Perfect bar neighborhood style and relaxing atmosphere.. Friendly staff plenty of parking.. Darts pool tables pinball and of course great jukebox and sound system.. Thanks Shady Nook no complaints...

Good prices! Great place to catch a game. Pool tables, darts, jukebox and parking is good. I go for a quick Guinness after work.

I had a blast here when I went last year! The bartender Shayla treated my group and I with a warm welcome and had us laughing the whole time. She even introduced me to one of my favorite drinks, a shot of buttery nipple, when I asked her to make something sweet to surprise me. The place is a cool vibe, kinda feels like a western saloon, and Shayla was the cherry on top, super witty and welcoming. Next time I’m in town I’ll make sure to stop by again! Only wish there were more food options, but the snacks were a nice touch 👍🏾👍🏾

I had a good time here on a Saturday night! Seriously, have never seen such a diverse crowd in my life! Every age, race, orientation. The 2 pool tables were full the entire night, unfortunately. Better put your name on the board & be able to win the table if you want to play with friends. One other thing - Google told me they had free jukebox on Saturday nights after 8pm (staff load it up with money, a review said). This was not true. The jukebox was pretty well occupied already by 8pm, so it was $1 to play a song, hopefully, at some point, or $5 to move the song to the front of the line. That's an absurd price, so I wasn't able to pick any tunes. My friends & I enjoyed some conversation & tall mugs of beer, surrounded by good energy & other people's unremarkable music selections. =)

Jess is my favourite bartender. I trust her to make me a tasty cocktail whenever I can't decide on what I want (which is usually the case). She has the best customer service, very attentive and friendly. Small bar but I go for the pool whenever I'm in the area. They have two diamond tables. You can bring your own food. There's a good pizza/Italian spot next door and a Mexican restaurant nearby too. Also, the cleanest women's restroom in all the bars I've been to in the area and that's a huge plus in my book.

My wife and I used to hang out there about 23 yrs ago. We had our wedding reception there in Dec of 2000. Great place lots of memories. Glad to see it still open.

I was looking for a dive bar to have a good cocktail after a difficult day. The place is small and definitely a dive/neighborhood bar. The locals were very friendly & welcoming and my dirty martini was delicious!

Clean little dive bar. Really clean. Not really dive-ey. Local bar for sure. Really clean pool tables. Give it a look. $2 Miller Genuine Drafts on the regular, which pretty much makes it that the cheapest drink in town.
