Madison Bear Garden - (Near Chico, CA)

3 /5 Jay Dub: Ok food, pretty much over cooked burgers and fries... Even when you ask for medium rare. Order of 6 chicken wings is $25 with tax. Burgers are $20 Service non existent. Its self service. Bar service is good... Unless you ask for a beer that they keep in the back bar (although advertised up front), at which point they yell into a loudspeaker viamicrophone and yell for a server to bring it up.. about 5 minutes later after my date was served. Dont go in Tuesday night. They play Bingo over their extremely loud PA system, ruining your meal. Ok dive bar for college students but certainly not a place for families, kids or dates Even single adults like myself who showed up to an empty restaurant at 5:30 on a Wednesday couldnt get the manager to put the NFL Network game on just one of their 15+: televisions. 2 Stars all around. Bartender and the kitchen staff are very nice.

3 /5 Jeff Vercelli: Certainly a place to try because of the decor. The food is good, just nothing extraordinary. The pork (and with grilled cheese) sandwiches are tasty.

5 /5 Scott Lebengood: What a wild and fantastic place. Absolutely unique. Locally recommended. The grilled cheese pulled pork was incredible!

5 /5 lisa schumann: A very unique place . So fun to play I spy games with the kids. Loads of drink options .We tried several shots. Fun for a birthday dinner. Hamburgers great. Fries huge and fresh. The burger with peanut butter was really good. Try it! The pulled pork grilled cheese delicious and inspiration to make at home.

2 /5 Patrick King: Cool, unique atmosphere. Horrible service and extremely extremely average food. So strange to order food at one counter then having to do it again, in line, for a drink at the bar. Weird. Somehow the hamburger was not hot even though I picked it up the second my name was called. You’re definitely surviving on nostalgia and that’s about it.
