Babe's Lounge

Fun place with a chill vibe. The pool tables are outside, but hey, it's California! There are pavilion-type covers built in the pool area to protect from rain and heaters for winter time. Not 100% ideal I guess, but not bad and the tables are well maintained... better so than some bars in the area that have their tables inside.I can't say that I'm a regular here, but yeah, I've had a few drinks and they were good and reasonably priced.The bartenders that I've met were all nice... great people! If I lived closer, I'd probably hang out here more for sure.

Although I can appreciate an upscale bar with classical music and designer cocktails, nothing beats a dive bar with stiff drinks and folks from all walks of life (you have to love these sayings that don't quite make sense). Looking to step out and enjoy a date night, my wife and I did a quick Yelp search for a local bar in Elk Grove. Babe's Lounge arrived at the top of my search results as the highest rated bar in Elk Grove, so Babe's Lounge would be our destination for that night. When we arrived, we parked in the rear area close to an automotive detail business.The bar entrance through the rear (you cannot access the bar from the door facing the street) showed us a food truck called Shanyia's (I will circle back to the food later), and a outdoor Cabana area that included a bar that serves basic drinks (e.g. Vodka tonics), and pool tables. As we made our way through this area, we were warmly greeted by the owner and some of the patron's. Based on the community vibe, we gathered that the environment has birthed many friendships and was welcoming to newbies such as ourselves. Since my wife wanted a Cosmo that required specific ingredients, we made our way to the indoor bar that offered more variety.Walking into the indoor bar, we were simultaneously greeted by the sweet sound of 90's RNB and a bartender by the name of Jewel. Jewel warmly welcomed us, took our orders (Cosmo & Kamikaze), and immediately started making the drinks. As we consumed our stiff drinks (no complaints), we enjoyed conversation in what felt like a safe environment, chatted with Jewel while she prepared drinks for other patrons, and enjoyed the superb 90's-early 2000's R&B & hip hop playlist (I would have been completely in my zone if they had karaoke). After closing out our tab, we desired to have some food to soak up the drinks that we consumed.Thankfully, Shanyia's is conveniently parked at the bar for folks that are seeking balance after enjoying the bar. One of the owner's warmly acknowledged us as we proceeded to place an order for two of their Loaded Garlic Chicken Fire Fries. Roughly 10 minutes later, we were devouring our orders. We were pleased with both of our orders; however, our only complaint (I use that word lightly) is that the fries were not cooked to a crisp. Therefore, the undercooked fries did not pair well with the delicious, well-cooked and seasoned chicken.We thoroughly enjoyed our experience at Babe's Lounge and look forward to returning in the near future!

Babes is rather new to town and I welcome them! The owner is always looking for ways to improve his guests experience at Babes which is nice! The free pool tables is amazing. His beer prices are more than fair and he has an amazing collection of tequilas on site. The inside bar is nice and cozy, the bartenders are wonderful and always give good customer service. Babes is a rare gem in old town Elk Grove and deserves to be visited.Sometimes on Fridays they have "smash burgers" by Eric that are so good I can't resist them!

I went to Babes a few weeks with my husband and a couple of friends, ordered four drinks got my bill for $17 (left a $3 tip) signed the receipt, drank my drink and left.Next morning | was going over my statement and I saw two pending changes for Babes $20.40 and another $71.99.At first I called my bank and was told to first go directly to the bar. The bank representative said credit card disputes against bars and restaurants are usually a loss because their is no proof that the service wasn't met.So l went into Babes and met with the bar manager julia.After a short discussion she agreed to meet me in the middle and gave me over half my dispute in cash.Yes, I'm out a few bucks, but in the big picture I was planning on a loss and expected an argument. In the end, Julia was professional, heard me out and made me a satisfied customer.5 Stars for Julia and your great customer service and management style. Babes is lucky to have you.

Great spot, a very homey environment when you visit! The service is very prompt. The drinks are very delicious and made very well.

This formerly neighborhood pub did have a cool vibe at one time and now it has morphed simply into a menace to anybody who wants a peaceful existence in this neighborhood. Many Patrons are over-served alcohol and not monitored for aggressive behavior or turned away at the outset of anti social behavior. These patrons -- once no longer spending -- stream into the community and neighborhood, vomiting, urinating, fighting and worse. Management takes the view that when their door closes behind these patrons, the responsibility ends. It certainly doesn't.

Been there several times, lots of fun good drinks. Staff are very friendly and fun. I would recommend this place.

They make a good drink here, it has a chill vibe and the food truck in the back was playing awesome music. Keep them coming back.

Such a fun vibe of a place with a sick outdoor area ! Drunk singing rebelution with the female bartender at the end of the night was uh-mazing

Everything was amazing. Kudos to Julia. The only thing missing was Food! We'll definitely be back!
