The Tiny Pony Tavern

TOP-TIER BAR FARE IN AN INCLUSIVE, FUN ATMOSPHERE ​What an amazing discovery! The food is top-tier upscale bar fare—the shishito peppers, in particular, were an unexpected delight. Beyond the menu, it’s clearly a space that welcomes everyone; they proudly display an inclusivity badge on the door. ​The service is fast and friendly; if something is slightly off, they fix it immediately. The atmosphere feels like a cool pool bar with fun decor and a dog-friendly covered patio in the back. ​Pro tip: Keep an eye on the corner above the bar—when the green light is on, an order is ready for pickup!

This is a great bar with good food and a fun atmosphere. I had dinner and drinks. The food is unique and tasty and they have a big mixed drink menu. I had the date old fashioned. The staff is friendly and the crowd is a fun mix of tourists and locals. I will be back next time I am in town.

We stopped in Jan 26 after our daughter’s horse riding at Knob Hill Ranch. Our kind of place, funky, local and not a chain, very much not a chain. Fast friendly service on drinks and food. Great burgers, great drink selection. Fun hole in the wall place!

This is pretty close to Joshua tree national park. A fair amount of parking, too. I came here close to starving. A fun tavern. Coming in was a little weird. I kind of stood awkwardly for a little bit and then the bartender waved me over. She was extremely busy and seemed like someone had called out, but was doing her absolute best. I felt bad for her, she seemed overworked, but maybe that was an off day. She gave me suggestions, and didn't make me feel rushed at all. The menu was pretty creative, and had some great items. I was immediately drawn to the pretzel balls. I'm a fiend for pretzels, and these made me crazy. The cheese dip (another thing I'm crazy about, cheese), was also great, and was exactly what I needed. I also got the "Tiny Pony Burger". Of course, I had to ask if the burger was tiny, and was great! Not overcooked and I liked the chipotle mayo that went with it. I recommend this place if you need to fuel up and if you like pretzels, like me.

Tavern with a capital T has an eclectic menu of sandwi he's, salads and more. Great flight of beers and a fun, funky atmosphere. I had the Bulgogi Cowboy Sandwich, it was marvelous
