Great food and friendly crowd. Even though I'm not a Ravens fan I was treated good. Lol. This place is very crowded during football season. Definitely a locals pub. If you're in the area give it a try.

This is one of our regular places. We love to Rumor Meal - the menu is great and the food is consistently really good and very tasty. Some of our favorites include the burger wrap and the Dena bird (fried is extra delicious!). We love that they have tater tots as a side. The only thing we are ever sad about is when we are craving Rumor Meal and they're closed on Mondays. We just look forward to them being open on Tuesday! Great local place with happy hour, game specials and a friendly local atmosphere.

After four plus years of living in Pasadena, we finally made it to The Rumor Meal last night! I am so mad at myself for waiting this long. I always heard great things but for some reason it took us a while to go. Quite honestly, I had never been that far down Mountain Road before. Upon arrival the parking lot was a bit full but I was able to snag a spot right up front as someone pulled out. Upon entering we went to the bar area and saw no available bar or table seats. Having never been there before, I assumed that was the whole restaurant. I didn't know there was an additional room behind it. After walking back to the lobby area we initially considered take out but fortunately we were saved by an awesome employee who escorted us to an open table in the back. We were immediately greeted by our server, Ashlynn, who provided EXCELLENT service from start to finish. We started with honey old bay boneless wings, buffalo bone in wings and an order of fries. I last minute threw in a side of gravy for the fries. I didn't get much flavor out of the gravy at all. Not the end of the world. My husband ordered a cheesesteak that came with chips. He thoroughly enjoyed his entire meal. I ordered a couple sliders: fried green tomato BLT and the meatball one. I enjoyed both. There were a couple other that I would have tried but I didn't want to overdo it. We ordered a large pepperoni pizza to go so he had lunch the following day. He liked his pizza and said he would definitely order it again.When we were asked if we wanted anything additional before the kitchen closed we quickly threw an order of funnel cake fries in. I had been eyeing them since we first sat down and saw the menu. Holy cow were they good! The chocolate sauce that comes with them was delicious and the funnel cake fries were cooked perfectly. I have a feeling we will order them on every future visit. The restaurant itself was super clean and had plenty of TVs for you to catch the games. The bathrooms were clean as well. The menu was super big and there are a ton of items on it that I would still like to try. I guess that means we will see you again soon!

This place is a hidden gem. I have passed the place a million times and never gave it much thought until my daughter moved off of Mountain Road and we thought we would try it. We loved it. The steak and cheese is so good. The cocktails are good as well. The service is always good and the waitresses are always friendly. If you are on Mountain Road you should give it a try...

Food good service excellent so friendly and efficient and so glad trivia has returned!

Best pizza in the Dena! Not even close. 1 horse race. Love it. Ask for it crispy / well done.

I stopped in this evening with a work colleague to grab a drink and some apps. We were seated immediately and our server, Nat, was fantastic. He pointed out the specials and was very attentive. Our drinks were served quickly and the old bay wings were great. Great ambiance, great service, great food, at reasonable prices. I'm a fan.

Been dining in and ordering carryout since the Rumor Meal opened...always enjoyed but tonight was a disaster. Relatives visited and we decided to get carry out. They insisted that they pay for the food since we treated last time. The bill plus tip was $114... the food was terrible! Soups were cold along with all 3 crab soups that truly lacked crab in them, meatballs were room temp and the boneless wings were so hard my aunt couldn't eat them. I was 10 minutes early to pick up the food and it was already bagged and ready to go. (Who knows how long it had been sitting there). I was so embarrassed that I offered to take it back and show a manager but was talked out of doing so. We managed a meal with sharing a Cobb salad and a salmon salad along with some leftovers from home. Because I felt so bad about our experience, Isneaked cash in my relative's purse to reimburse her!

The ambiance, food and key lime crush was superb. I enjoyed my time here, I dined outdoors. I left before the live band began playing. One guest had their small dog so it is pet friendly, the dog was quiet and kind like its owners. My server was so down-to-earth and knowledgeable. I recommend.
