Need help with $resource and (basic) Geocoding

Hello,

In my app, I have to figure out where the user is, so that I can send lat and lng as query parameters with my $resource request.
This is my code:

angular.module('starter.services', ['ngResource'])
.factory('Pubs', function($resource) {
  // Get user position
  navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(getPosition);
  function getPosition(position) {

    // Get pubs
    var httpRequest = $resource('http://my-domain.com/pubs', {}, {
      query: {
        method: 'GET',
        isArray: true,
        params: {
          lat: position.coords.latitude,
          lng: position.coords.longitude
        }
      }
    });

    pubs = httpRequest.query(function(response) {
      console.log(response);
    });
  }

  return {
    all: function() {
      return pubs;
    }
  };
});

It doesn't work because by the time that HTML5 Geocoding has got back to me with the coordinates, the function has already returned. Moving all the code inside the callback does not work because I get an error saying 'your services must return something'. I know it's quite simple but I am stuck...
Any help would be greatly apreciated
