Used to love Ol' Pop's. Those days when me and my friends would bunk lectures and sit for a pitcher ! :) Although nowdays the place has changed a lot- for the worse. The staff is very rude and the food quality seems to have plumetted. The place is too noisy and untidy. I'm really tired of this place aand feel the hype is what it's living for as one burrper has rightly said.This is to inform that I'm giving it two only for old times sake.

Everybody keeps talking about pop tate's... but as per me, if there was 1 over hyped restaurant, then the prize would definitely go to Pop's. Extremely crowded, poor service, very noisy, expensive etc etc. Went there a couple of times, but was extremely put off by the entire experience. Purely targeted at the college kids & the waiters will pay attention only to pretty girls.

This place has got a very mixed review from the fellow burrpers but i still went to try this place because some of my friends form this area said that it is the 'most lively' place on this side of the town.
We reached there at 2pm for lunch on a weekday. It was quite crowded and there was no sign of a valet. This is quite cumbersome since there is hardly any parking around. Anyway, i managed to get out while the hubby dearest kept searching for a parking for next 15 minutes.
It is a very tiny place with small seats, barely comfortable for a normal human being. The place was brimming with lots of youngsters and was very noisy. Hubby was still fuming with his parking woes and he immediately ordered a beer which came quickly. I asked for a bloody mary. It was the most disgusting one i have ever had. I meediately swiched to beer. We ordered a few starters like chicken wings (they have it in various sauces) and a chicken kabab off the tawa. Both were ordinary if not outright bad. This was followed by a chicken burger and a sandwich of chicken salad. The bread was good in both of them but everything else was not even worth mentioning. The burger patty was just barely a few mm thick and flavourless. Chicken salad had some cheap mayo and traces of chicken. We asked the server to get us some Tobasco to spice up the food and he responded that "we dont give it as it spoils food taste"...haah, as if we were dining at Gordon Ramsay's signature restaurant!
We were quite disgusted by now and decided to leave. This is not a place for me. Bye bye pop tates.

The malad one is definitely better, cooler less attitude.
The valets here pretend as if they own the entire road, but the moment they see a girl, fall over trying to please, so what do u want us to do --- wear skirts - Sure look at my fricking size man

Look I like this place, I am not sure what so many reviews were complaining about. In this price range its good enough for me. At Rs. 250 for TWO pitchers (only during happy hours), its simply unbeatable. The quantity of beer is decent in their pitchers, and it isn't watered down one bit (as I am sure they do in other VFM happy hour joints).
The food isn't good or bad in any specific way, the fries are decent enough and equally well priced. Dunno if the cocktails are worth it...
They let you smoke INSIDE!! What a freakin pleasure, too many places are getting stricter on the smoking thing.
The head of staff with a sparkling personality makes it fun to wait in line outside, if you strike up a conversation with him he's always ready and willing to keep you busy while you wait for a table. I like the way that this place is not too 'posh' and not too 'dingy', its great in the middle.
