POP Champagne Bar & Restaurant

POP Champagne Bar & Restaurant is a warm and welcoming place where friends gather for good times and where dates enjoy a romantic setting. POP is located in Old Pasadena in a historic building that retains many of its original features — brick walls, plank floors, an open- beam ceiling, and Batchelder tiles. POP’s dinner menu starts with appetizers like jalapeño tuna tartare and beer-battered vegetables, and goes on to include entrée favorites such as champagne chicken, a blackened salmon, and filet mignon. It also includes salads, cheese and charcuterie platters, and small plates such as pommes frites and a seasonal soup. Our much-praised dessert menu presents classics such as crème brûlée and a soufflé du jour, as well as inventive temptations such as a Meyer lemon tart with homemade basil ice cream. All of our offerings are made in-house, including our breads. And of course there’s Champagne — one of the best selections in Southern California. If Champagne and caviar is in order, we have the caviar, too. POP opened in 2008 and has become an Old Pasadena fixture. In 2014 we capitalized on our reputation for festivity by opening a new banquet room so that we can host special events any day of the week. The new space includes a large-screen audio-video system for guests who want to present anything from slide shows to film screenings.
