The Stand - American Classics Redefined

Insanely good sandwiches at The Stand -- I had half of the Southwest Chicken Sandwich and half of the BBQ Brisket Sandwich, and every bite of both was amazing! The fries were good, and the service was fast and friendly.The menu is huge -- lots of burgers, sandwiches, salads, and bowls to choose from. They also have free (validated) parking, located just south of the building next to the gym next door.So glad I found this place and can't wait to go back and try more of the menu!

We love the stand so we were super excited to try this location for the first time! Right off the back I noticed how nice & well kept this location is. I love that they provide indoor & outdoor seating & also appreciate how well kept they keep their store. We opted for outdoor seating & ordered a kids cheeseburger meal along with the chicken club sandwich. The service was extremely friendly & attentive, I really loved how nice & helpful the staff were! Food came out fast & tasted fresh & flavorful. Parking was easy but I could see it being difficult on a busy day as there's only street parking from what I could see. Overall, great experience!

Perfect char on burger Service - very slow. On a Sunday at 1:30 pm, took 20 minutes to get our burger and macaroni cheese. We barely made it to the 2 pmShow at Pasadena Playhouse.And yes, our fault for getting here 30 minutes before the show but there was only one person in front of us and again it is a burger (one burger) and we can practically see all the cooks - probably 6 of them. They said they had a lot of to go orders.Anyway, lesson learned, this is definitely not fast food so allow time.

Mom and I have been coming here for lunch every time we have a show at the Pasadena Playhouse. By far our favorite place for lunch. We've had most things on the menu that's to our diets (basically little to no meat); and everything is amazing. The Tuna sandwich is a real winner for both of us, always make it a melt! Excellent tuna salad, a delight for each bite and so much of it! Be sure to come hungry or be prepared to box it up.Salads are amazing but even the side salad is just as big. On a day you're feeling a little less and wanting just greens, highly recommend one of the salad. Fresh ingredients, large enough to be a meal alone, they're basically perfect.And when in doubt, make your own sandwich! They make it easy to see all the options and it comes out exactly as requested. Make sure to ask for their pickles, they come in portioned containers and are delish! Excellent snap, not sour or sweet just that happy medium between.Fires are always a must but hands down, get the sweet potato and a side dip of your choice, trust me.Service is excellent, from ordering to bringing the food to being quick with fixing the drink machine. It can get a bit loud inside with a lot of people but it's still easy to hear company. Tables can be shared so don't be afraid to sit at someone else's table or head outside if it's nice out! Parking validation is offered for the garage too.

My first meal of 2025 bc it was surprisingly open on new year's day! I ordered the stand burger and it was delicious. Such good flavor. Their fries were the perfect slightly salty addition. It was nice out so we sat outside, enjoying our burgers while basking in the sun with the view of the Pasadena Playhouse across the street. Recommended!

Solid spot for burgers!! The meat patties are thick and juicy, super flavorful toppings and sauces too. Loved all the different drinks and shake options, like cookie crumble shake, root beer/orange floats. Onion rings were a hit, however they don't have any sauce for it, nothing out in the open for you to help yourself too either (napkins, water, utensils, sauces, etc.). Service was good. Ambiance is bright and modern, with a casual and fun feeling.

Nice place to go to before a show at the playhouse right across the street. There's indoor and outdoor dining, it was a bit chilly inside with the fans going but not terrible. The highlight was definitely the cookie crunch shake! Soooo good! The falafel wrap was ok, and the sweet potato fries were tasty with a good texture.

I was craving a grilled chicken sandwich, so i went on Yelp and found this place with good reviews and it is only 10 minutes away from my house so i said why not? Walking in i was greeted by multiple workers which is always nice. I was asked if i had any questions about the menu and to take my time. Which is again nice to not feel rushed. Once i ordered, the cashier was very nice and it was just a good experience overall. My chicken sandwich was good and flavorful. I did switch out arugula for shredded lettuce. My daughter got the Mac and cheese and she enjoyed it. Their ranch is really good. It has a garlicky taste to it. I saw someone say they mix their blue berry lemonade and cucumber like aqua fresca so i did that and it was soooo yummy and refreshing. I definitely will come back to try a burger someday!!!

Visiting a friend & he suggested we try the Stand, good choice I'd say..This isn't a large place, or fancy, but it does serve good food & has a decent selection of beer..I had the Chicken wrap with fries, both taste great & worth the $18.00 price...If it's simple with no pretense, this place is for you..A solid 4 Stars

Been wanting to try this place for a while and I wish I tried it sooner! Food was incrediblytasty however their ranch dip is a bit too garlicy for my taste, the employees were nice and helpful at the counter and the outdoor seating was nice and clean!
