Had a great time here last night!! The setting was perfect, and the ambiance was chill, not loud nor rowdy. Drinks were good it was a great way to end the work week! If you want to have a drink, kick back and have some good laughs this is your spot! The bartender is awesome too??.

This place is a hidden gem, serving some top shelf bourbons, excellent mezcals, and quality tap beers. A very relaxed and comfortable environment, the oasis that is the Gold Rail is a great spot to play some pool, sing karaoke, fire up the jukebox or just sip a classic cocktail at the bar. You just wouldn't expect such a cool little spot on the west side of Glendale. Well-priced and very friendly staff to boot. Might become a regular...

This place is a great bar and it has a great atmosphere...until the bartender tells you what you can and can't play on the jukebox. This one star rating is only based on that experience. The bartender said "you can't play a song that will drive customers away " I decided to play "All I Want for Christmas Is you" and the bouncer literally came up to us and said "Why did you play that?" Only reason he didn't kick us out was because we weren't causing a problem but he was certainly ready to. Don't tell your customers what they can or can't play. If you want to, at least put it on your jukebox "We reserve the right to play what we want because it will make this bar profitable" If you want to be told what you can play on the jukebox when spend your money and pay for it, this bar is for you. Cheers!

Think twice b4 going after 11 pm...Our group was +10 and wanted to keep hanging out after we had dinner locally. We showed as the live band had ended. And it got very thin, very fast. It didn't matter, our group had good energy...but then...Strike 1: the 1st drink I requested, the bartender said "we don't make that". 2nd drink was vodka cranberry and the bartender said they were out of cranberry. Really? ⁷3rd drink a Long Island ..and the guy needed to consult his phone for the recipe and the other mixed drinks I requested. Needless to say it took a long time to get basic cocktails. Meanwhile some random was practicing basic magic tricks to the person behind me. Ok, i thought to myself, it's that kind of party.A few in our group felt the music was too loud to have a conversation... and then someone noticed there was a jukebox. The girls wanted to dance and pulled some $1's. As they were about to go over the options, the smaller obscure bartender asked, "what do want to hear" and when the group responded he said,"no, that will kill the vibe"., and remotely disabled the jukebox. R u kidding me? The place had 2 regulars, and a couple guys trying to play pool...none of whome where big advocates for the music.We left immediately and took our business elsewhere. I guess the bartenders preferred having an empty bar than happy customers...

The bartender that we had was good but unfortunately another bartender was there and told us we couldn't play Spanish music. This bartender/bus boy came up to us as we were at the touchtunes and deliberately paused the machine and told us we couldn't play Spanish music. Honestly I was shocked that someone would say something like that and when he reiterated what he said it was stereotypical and racist! How do you tell someone "sorry, we don't want to play your music" it's sad and disheartening! Disgusting behavior by this person! Refrain from coming here if you are latino!

Owner was drunk out of his mind being disrespectful being racist. Sad to see someone that owns a bar can’t handle there own alcohol.Reply to the owner: definitely was this bar asked you nicely to apologize but you continued to cuss me out… typical with people that get black out drunk.
