Drinkers Hall of Fame — Restaurant in Arcadia

My wife and I were married there (in the parking lot) on December 11, 1971. Jerry Cook and Jerry Yeider the owners at that time (retired jockeys) astroturfed the parking lot, covered it over with a large circus type tent, and brought in white wrotiron furniture. They had an old English taxi that they chauffeured us in, and they provided us with 2 nights at the Pasadena Hilton in the bridal suite. It was a class act by two class act owners. Flowers, cake, two bartenders, 3 cocktail waitresses, many guest (a lot of jockeys from Santa Anita) will included. Channel 5 news was there and later shown the wedding that evening on TV.

We were nobody special at the time, just a couple of good customers who had met there, and I later gave my wife her engagement ring there as well. So, it was only fitting that we got married there.

Cookie and Yeider promised that they would do it up right provided we would get married during racing season.

Something that I'll long...

The owner Miss Holly is the best. She's like a mom to me and my family and she truly cares about people. She is such a sweetheart and always makes her customers feel like there home whether you come from out of state or you're a literally neighborhood local, she will always do her best to always acknowledge everyone that's in her establishment. She's the biggest sweetheart ever and her bar goes to prove it the people that she surrounds herself with and the patrons that come in daily to see her and her bartenders. They genuinely come because they actually love the place. It's a small little hole in the wall but it's the best hole in the wall in Arcadia. Please feel free to go ahead and come on in, have a drink or shoot some pool or maybe even karaoke or some ski ball. Whatever you choose to do. Believe me, you...

Worst place ever. How can a bar allow anyone to smoke inside in 2018? My eyes were watering the second we walked in. We were there for a group event so didn't have much choice but left as early as we could without being rude to our friends. I had to shower when I got home because my clothes, skin and hair wreaked of smoke. The next day, my throat felt like I had throat cancer from the smoke....
