What User likes about The Blind Donkey:
This is the spot, enough said. Always stop here for a drink when about in Pasadena, dark without the dank, some outside seating now post covid, and a great old fashioned. Lots of choice of whiskey and cool staff. View all feedback. What Griffin Collins doesn't like about The Blind Donkey:
Just to be clear, the bartender who thinks an Oregon ID is fake is crazy rude. I’m not from California and I’m not sure what kind of service this is. She almost didn’t give me my ID back. Also, pretty sure the 20 something bartender is our age. View all feedback.

Bartender plus owner passionate, but not arrogant about their trade. Experts of craftsmen who are more than willing to give helpful recommendations or advice.
Great food! Order is very unique (order of food at the bar), but I loved it and great place for new comets in the state!
The spiced pear martini is so good. A decent choice of fleets. I didn't get a drink I didn't like.

Nice intimate watering hole. Not alot of choices for craft beer, but lots of choices for bourbon, scotch and whiskey.
Great vibe, good bartender that made quality drinks. Was hoping for a good happy hour hence the no 5 star rating. Was visiting the area, so maybe it's common to...
