2 Hours Party Bike Pub Crawl Tour in Glendale California
Glendale’s party bike turns a pub crawl into a rolling sing-along: you travel with your group, karaoke and LED lights on board, then stop at Paperback Brewing Co. and Gold Rail Bar. I like the mix of two different local drinking spots and built-in entertainment, which gives the outing more shape than simply meeting at a bar.
The main trade-off is time. Each stop is scheduled for about 30 minutes, and travel counts toward a tour listed as roughly one to two hours, so this is a quick taste of Glendale rather than a long, leisurely crawl. You also need to bring your own alcohol if you want drinks on the bike.
The essentials at a glance

- Karaoke travels with you: Dual karaoke, a Bluetooth speaker, and LED party lights make the ride part of the entertainment.
- Two Glendale stops: Plan on about 30 minutes at Paperback Brewing Co. and 30 minutes at Gold Rail Bar.
- Bring your own alcohol: Alcoholic beverages are not included. Water and a discount menu are provided.
- A short group outing: The tour lasts about one to two hours, including travel between stops.
- Up to 30 people: The maximum group size is 30, and you must be 21 or older to drink alcohol on the cart.
- Start and finish in Glendale: The listed meeting point is 236 N Central Ave, and the activity ends there.
A party bike, not a standard bar crawl
Ebird Express is built around the journey as much as the bars. You ride together on a party bike with music, karaoke, and colored lights, then make two planned stops in Glendale. That format suits a birthday, team outing, or friends’ night when the group wants a shared activity rather than separate conversations around a table.
The experience is social by design. Karaoke gives people something to do between stops, and the Bluetooth speaker lets the group bring its own music. Water is included, along with wristbands and a discount menu. Those small touches help organize the outing, though the most important inclusion is the entertainment setup itself.
One detail worth checking before you book is how much pedaling your group will actually do. The activity is described as a pedal party bike, but a couple celebrating a birthday reported that they did not have to pedal. That suggests the ride may not require strenuous effort in every case, but it does not establish what to expect on every departure. If you have mobility concerns or simply want to know how active the ride is, ask Ebird Express directly.

Paperback Brewing Co.: a flexible first stop

The first scheduled stop is Paperback Brewing Co., with about 30 minutes set aside. It offers a range of beers and hard seltzers, indoor and outdoor seating, and food trucks. That combination gives your group options: settle inside, enjoy the outdoor space, or see whether a food truck is available during your visit.
The variety matters when a group has different tastes. Beer and hard seltzer make this a broader stop than a single-style taproom, though the exact drinks and food-truck schedule are not specified. If you are counting on a meal, do not assume a truck will be there at your tour time. Check ahead or plan to eat elsewhere.
Thirty minutes is enough for a drink and a short break, but it is not a generous window for a full meal or a drawn-out tasting. Think of Paperback as one part of a moving social event, not a destination where you will have time to sample everything. Admission is free, but that does not mean drinks or food are included.
Gold Rail Bar: another 30-minute pause

The second stop is Gold Rail Bar, also scheduled for about 30 minutes. Its selection includes beers and mixed drinks, with indoor and outdoor seating and food from local eateries. That gives the crawl a different feel from the brewery stop, especially if someone in your group prefers mixed drinks to beer.
As at Paperback, the short visit is best suited to a quick round and a chance to relax together. Food is described as available from local eateries, but no specific menu or service arrangement is guaranteed. If eating is a priority, treat the stop as an opportunity rather than a promise of a full meal.
The two stops offer useful variety without making the outing feel like a long pub marathon. You can compare a brewery setting with a bar, while keeping the focus on the group and the ride. The limitation is equally clear: with half an hour at each place, you will need to keep an eye on the clock.
BYOB changes the price calculation

The listed price is $54.99 per person, and alcoholic drinks are not included. You bring your own alcohol for the cart, while the bars provide a chance to buy drinks during the stops. The supplied information also mentions a discount menu, but it does not specify which items qualify or how much you save.
That makes the price most appealing if you value the group activity, music, karaoke, and hosted route, not simply the drinks. You are paying for a planned outing with a party-bike setup and two bar stops. If your main goal is to sit at one bar and order drinks, a regular night out may cost less and give you more time at the table.
Remember to budget separately for alcohol and any food you choose to buy. Water is included, but alcoholic beverages are not. If you plan to bring drinks, confirm any practical rules with the operator before the day, since the details provided do not specify quantities or what containers are allowed.

Birthdays, work outings, and other group occasions

This tour makes the most sense when the group itself is the main event. Birthdays are a natural fit: the bike, music, and karaoke create a shared activity, and the operator has arranged stops for celebration groups. One birthday outing was hosted by Chris and Chris, who were described as accommodating. Those names are useful to know, though you should not assume the same hosts will lead every tour.
The format has also been used for workplace team bonding. The combination of riding, music, and casual stops gives colleagues something to do together without requiring everyone to enjoy the same kind of bar. Groups have also taken part in a community Christmas parade, suggesting the bike can serve as a group attraction beyond a standard pub crawl. That is a separate use, not part of this tour’s regular route.
The maximum group size is 30. That is large enough for a sizable celebration, but it also means the ride could feel lively and crowded when close to capacity. If your group is small, ask how the booking works and whether other people may join. The available details do not say if each booking is exclusive.
Timing, meeting point, and pickup

The tour is listed as lasting about one to two hours, with travel time included. The two stops each last about 30 minutes, so the remaining time covers the ride and transitions. The title describes a two-hour outing, but the summary gives a broader one-to-two-hour estimate. Confirm the expected length for your selected departure if you have dinner reservations or another timed plan afterward.
The stated start and end point is 236 N Central Ave, Glendale, CA 91203. The activity returns to the meeting point. Pickup is offered, and a secondary pickup location is described as behind the In-N-Out Burger at Broadway Avenue and Orange Street, across from Islands Restaurant. Check your confirmation carefully so you know which location applies to your booking.
The tour is offered in English, and tickets are mobile. Confirmation is provided at booking. It is usually booked about 11 days in advance, so planning ahead is sensible if you have a specific date in mind, especially for a celebration.
Who will enjoy it most

I would choose this for a group that wants a playful evening and is happy to make the bike part of the fun. It is particularly suited to birthdays, small work outings, and friends who enjoy singing, music, and a casual drink. You do not need to be an expert karaoke singer; the point is to join in or enjoy the group’s performance.
It is less suitable if you want a quiet brewery visit, a detailed guided tour of Glendale, or long stretches at each bar. The supplied details focus on entertainment and bar stops, not local history or sightseeing commentary. It is also not a drinks-included package, so the total cost will rise if you buy alcohol or food at the stops.
You must be 21 or older to drink alcohol on the cart. Service animals are allowed, and most people can participate. The activity information states there are no health restrictions, but if you have a specific concern about riding or pedaling, it is still wise to confirm the setup with the operator.
Should you book the Glendale party bike?

Book it if your group wants a lively, compact outing where karaoke, music, and company matter as much as the bars. The two stops bring some variety, and the supplied water and onboard entertainment help make the ride itself feel like an activity rather than transport between drinks.
Skip it if your priority is a slow pub crawl, a meal included in the price, or a quiet night out. At $54.99 per person before drinks and food, the value depends on whether your group will use the party-bike experience. For birthdays and team gatherings that want a little structure and a lot of shared silliness, it is a reasonable way to make an ordinary bar night more memorable.
