10/10 dank memes I was only 20 years old, I loved The Rookery so much, I met Shrek in the back room everytime I went. I pray to Shrek every night before bed, thanking him for the life I’ve been given "Shrek is love" I say; “Shrek is life” My dad hears me and calls me a fgt I know he was just jealous of my devotion for Shrek I called him a cont He slaps me and sends me to go to sleep I’m crying now, and my face hurts I lay in bed and it’s really cold Suddenly, a warmth is moving towards me It’s Shrek I am so happy He whispers into my ear “This is my swamp.” He grabs me with his powerful ogre hands and puts me down onto my hands and knees I’m ready I spread my butt-cheeks for Shrek He penetrates my butt-hole It hurts so much but I do it for Shrek I can feel my butt tearing as my eyes start to water I push against his force I want to please Shrek He roars in a mighty roar as he fills my butt with his love My dad walks in Shrek looks him straight in the eyes and says “It’s all ogre now.” Shrek leaves through my window Shrek is love. Shrek is life.

I have been coming to The Rookery throughout their 3 year existence. Its a great place to stop by before a show at the Glasshouse or the Fox. Their happy hours are a great deal, especially since their starters come in generous portions. Their rotating tap list is one of the best and that can be attributed the the owners love of craft beer. We occasionally exchanged untapped numbers and it blew me away how many he has. His collaboration with local breweries, such as Polymath and Sanctum during the restaurants 3rd year anniversary, shows how in-tune they are with the craft beer scene. Their burgers and food are great, so definitely a must.

All the food is decent but the burgers and Mac and cheese are amazing! The blue cheese dressing is also really good. The real star is the beer selections always changing and always interesting with something for everyone from wits to sours to triples to IPAs and all kinds of fun specialties. Janet is my fav, I never know what I want and then describe something and she brings me the perfect beer or I go for a flight when I cant decide. The atmosphere is laid back with killer music and enough kinds of seating to make anyone happy.

Nommmm... Delicious beeeeeeeeer... A really great place to sample a large selection of beers you dont see after every bar. Good range from lights-to- darks. Also seems like the menu never goes "stagnant", always rotating out new beers while keeping a few to stay familiar.. Oh and the food, simply dank. Ive honestly enjoyed everything I have tried. Staff are great, really make you feel comfortable and never make you wait long enough to get thirsty. My go-to bar on my journey home from work.

The art and presentation of this place are great. The in-house artist, Alex Torrez, has done design on all aspects of this place and this gives it a unique atmosphere that cant be beat. The beers are great and draws from local and national microbrews that are fantastic quality. On top of this, the prices are reasonable and the staff are great. A must for your Pomona experience. Eat here before heading to the Glass House or the Fox Theater.

Very nice place, service was great and the burger I had was delicious, my son had a chicken sandwich it that was really good also. They have a great beer selection too bad Im not drinking any for a while. The only thing I would add to this place is entertainment, its kind of dead. Maybe later in the evening it will get going, 5:30 is kind of early

This place is such nice place to be at. They have a wonderful selection of beers and the staff are very knowledgeable and helpful in helping you choose. The food is also very good with quite a selection. My favorite aspect about the place is that it feels like an old tavern. Also very easy to make a reservation for a large group.

One of the better craft beer pubs in way east LA county and IE. Hands down best wings Ive ever had and the rest of the menu is solid yum. Only complaint is there have been a few days where a few too many advertised tap handles had gone dry. Suppose thats a good problem to have. Very nice folks own and work here.

Excellent selection of beer, and they rotate a lot. Theres always something new and interesting to try, and the bar tenders are always willing to talk about beer and offer suggestions. Good burgers, but the small plates are better, the fried potatoes are great for kicking back with friends and a beer or three.

I absolutely loved this place. It has this interesting rustic and almost medieval Tavern feel. The burgers were amazing and the sides they offer are enormous. We ordered one or two appetizers and it was basically a meal in itself. Youre definitely going to come home with food if you show up and you should.

This place has great rotating beer selection and simple but delicious food menu. Bottled beer selection is good and always changing, some wine for the ones that opt out of beer. Nice mellow vibe and staff is always friendly, good place for groups or couples

Service is amazing, food is incredible. Never had a bad dish! I cant understand why this place isnt always slammed. For now Im glad because it still feels secretive! Obviously, draft list is second to none. If nothing else, they really know their beer!

Fantastic burger and great beer selection! If youre looking for fine gastropub food, come here. It is definitely more of a restaurant than a bar, so come with friends rather than looking to meet new people, as the layout wont help you there.

Loved the Spicy fried potatoes and IPA battered pickle spears! The spicy mayo and ranch sauces deliciously complimented the starters. I had the Ale braised pulled pork sandwich and it was fantastic, came with a hearty side of fries.

The absolute best place to get a burger in Downtown Pomona. Ofcourse they have the biggest craft beer selection in town and the wings are also some of the best in the area! great place to eat before a concert or on your lunch break.

My fave spot for burgers and beer... Always try something different, dont be afraid to as the bartender for some advice in choosing your perfect beer. And Los iron fries or sooooo good!!! Definitely a place to try out in Pomona!

It took them 20 minutes to bring the food for our party of 6. From the first Chicken wings to the last burger. The pulled pork was almost cold - though tasty, and two orders of fries never made it. A generous three stars...

Great beer list. Flights are available which is a great way to try different beers. Good mix of local and less local craft brews. They seem to update regularly. Food is typical bar fare and nothing to get excited about.
