Worst place ever ! Beware of the snooty attitude they serve or the dirty and dingy bar or better yet how about the country band that lives to make racist jokes about Mexicans. Definitely not a place to stroll into after hours if your a person of color.

There is no where else that feels like«my» bar. I this place! I worked next door and was off early afternoon and this is where I would blow off steam. The owner is a doll, and the bartenders are AH– mazing!!!

Been here about 10 times to play poker, it’s a decent bar for the area. This place is ALWAYS busy so getting a beer might take some time, the crowd is mixed ect.

Me and some friends come here a few times a month. Plenty of televisions showing different games or ESPN. Music in the background is 70s-90s and from classic rock-country. The price on drinks are really good. Haven’t tried any of the food yet, might in the future. A couple times we went there was live bands playing and also billiards tournaments. Only downside about going here is the crowd is definitely 35 years old +

Pretty cool place! Stingers has expanded much! The food had definitely improved a lot. If you have a large party call in advance and they can definitely accommodate you! Stingers has something for everyone!

I’ve heard about this place by other people and decided to check it out. It’s a typical pool hall type of sports bar. They host different events throughout the month and I even think they are open in the mornings for breakfast(which you can also order a beer with). My friend and I were talking at the bar, and the bartender kept on butting in our conversation, not knowing exactly what we are talking about. I know he was just trying to be friendly, but when anyone butts into a conversation and doesn’t know what’s going on, it becomes rude. This place would probably be a fun place to come in and have a couple of beers, shoot some pool, and watch a sports game. Would I come back here? It wouldn’t be at the top of my list.

If the first bad experience wasn’t enough it took a second time of going here to really settle an opinion of this place. Well I can sufficiently say this is an expensive bar for being such a DIVE. 4.25 for a pint. They had about a dozen beers on tap but if you’re a beer snob the choice was kilt lifter or Stella or this goose island IPA, So with limited local crafts and more emphasis on domestics, bud light specifically, I called it a night. Good wings, that’s all this place had going for them. So many other dive bars with friendlier bartenders and better specials. And be careful of the tubby dark haired security gaurd, at 2:05 sharp they start rolling everyone out after pouring them a drink at 1:55. He was literally walking around yelling to hurry up and finish so he can lock up. All we can do is not support this place and hope they go out. If not it will probably get shut down for over serving someone then forcing them out to go get a DUI or worse. This place is a shame. At a minimum they should be humble and that’s the last thing you feel from the 35yo blondie pouring your drinks with attitude like she still has something to prove… Look around it’s wood paneled like a dive with Vegas style service. Atleast try the wings if you read this and are unfortunately already there. I will not be back EVER.

This bar has everything you would expect a Glendale sports bar to contain. Darts, poker, pool, big TVs for football and a patio outside for the smokers. I went to use the restroom and noticed they also sell cigs in the vending machines,($ 8 bucks in case you were wondering). I haven’t seen that in ages.

When you’re a football fan of a not-so-popular team(Go RAMS!), it’s hard to find a bar willing to give you a big screen TV. From the get-go(late 2012), the owner set aside a big screen TV for us and would even set up tables for us before kickoff. That was when we only had about 6 people watching the game. Now the word is out, our fan base is growing, and we take up the entire back section by the dart boards — all 20+(and growing) of us. The breakfast specials & Bloody Mary’s are good and the bathrooms are clean. They also have a lot of pool tables, TVs outside on the covered patio, and ample parking.

Good neighborhood place, plenty of pooltables to play. Could be better off they bring back The Shark on kareoke! The food isn’t bad either.

Great place to shoot pool BUT– —- I guess the goal is to make as much profit off cheap, low quality food as they can and they seem to be very successful at it. When I ordered the nachos it became very clear why the establishment is called stingers because when I saw what I got for the price that I paid it did sting. The nachos reminded me of when I was 13 and failed horribly at trying to make nachos at home for the first time. My buddy thought I had ordered a salad. ITWASSOBAD and very $$$. I was stuck there all day for a pool tournament so I ordered again. This time I ordered a brat. $ 7.25 for a nasty brat on a First street bun and some old fries. Looking back on the nachos I’m sure that it had to be explained to the cook how to prepare them. No one would deliberately make nachos like that unless instructed to. The instructions must have been as followed: Do not layer anything, layering will be loss of profit. Do not use anything less then the cheapest chips available, using quality chips would be a loss in profit. Use nasty Velveeta cheese but use it sparingly, using too much would be a loss in profit. Next sprinkle the meat on, a normal amount of meat would be a loss in profit. Last, load it up with cheap lettuce.

I am surprised at the good reviews listed. My first time in this bar, just looking for some drinks and live music. It wasn’t real busy, but it was obvious that if you are not a regular you should get to the back of the line for service. This is local hangout for many who know the staff and the staff pays more attention to them then someone that they don’t know. When I walked in I greeted the door man with a smile and said hello. He just put out his hand… I guessed he wanted my ID and I gave it to him. With a grunt he said go ahead. However he greeted the guy behind me like they had been friends forever. I wouldn’t go back, hope the regulars can pay the bills for the owner. Because this is not a friendly place for newcomers.

I haven’t been in a while. I love, love, love the new karaōke machine. Wish there were better singers. It would be a lot more fun. Nice staff and very roomy. I’ll be back.

Stingers is my neighborhood bar. I was going there several times a week for awhile until I decided to cut down on my drinking. They make really stiff drinks and always have a «you Call it» special going later at night so ask for it. Their chicken wings are delicious and on point. I get them HOT. My favorite thing is they have karaōke EVERYNIGHT, I think it starts at 10 pm. They do have a karaōke host but my one complaint is you have to pay $ 1 into a karaōke machine in order to sing a song.

Crap hole. Awesome bartenders. Shitty overpriced food. Warped pool tables. Only good thing about this place(besides the barmaids) is if you wanna get in a fight, just look at someone. The owner is a whiny prick. We tried to make a complaint and he blames everything on the bartenders. They bust thier asses serving a bunch of scumbags. This review is not based on one single visit, but several weeks of having to go to this place. It’s a Steelers bar. Gimme a break.

They opened their bar to us all day for our KWSS pledge drive Friday. The place is huge! Lots of space for hanging out for an evening with your friends. Had one of their burgers for lunch– ironically enough it was also National Fast Food Day. Well cooked burger, but I think the fries were frozen from a bag. The service was excellent from Yvonne, and she took care of all of us ALLDAYLONG. Just wonderful. The owner is also a great guy. I’m not just saying this because they let us take over for the day. If I’m ever up in that area and need a place to grab a bite, I’m going to Stingers.
