We were in the area and stopped by and ran into an old friend. The bartender was friendly even gave us some goodies we stayed longer than we anticipated but we had an incredible time. Will definitely go back again.

Historic bar, decorated with buffalo and deer heads. Sometimes packed, sometimes empty. Nice bartenders!

This could be a fun place. It's inside is fun and so open. They have cool stuff on the walls and an area that a band must play at often. The issue is the atmosphere. If you are not a usual or a long time Brisbane resident you can feel very unwelcome. I went in on my birthday (mind I live in Brisbane) and immediately felt the room look at me. I just went to have a drink with a friend before heading to dinner. It was uncomfortable to say the least. So it could be a great place!

A perfect place to have a drink with your friends. I had fun too with the music.Thank you
Since Frances left the BI, this local favorite bar of mine is slipping back to its old bad habits and habitants. I'm a long time resident and it saddens me. It also frequently doesn't open on time and the drinks are basic along with the energy. No more craft cocktails. Hey, and I like a whiskey and a shot too but it's losing charm by the weekend. What a shame after all the time and effort spent to revive it that the owners couldn't get their act together and although Frances has strong opinions that may not have meshed well with one or both of the owners he is a professional and really was their best bet at becoming sustainable and evolving along with Brisbane. I've been standing waiting to have a quick Friday beer after a long week and at least 3 people have tried opening their locked doors. It's almost 4:30pm. Maybe they changed their hours? Regardless it's almost turned the corner for good ... to becoming a sad place that lost it bit of edgy sophistication. Go see it before the doors are closed again. It's just a matter of time until the premium liquor bottles are empty, the are watered down, and drugs are being sold in the bathroom again.

I support this fine business. The owners Linda and Brad have a vision creating a community meeting place. I love the fireplace, history and the camaraderie. Keep up the good vibes and welcoming atmosphere ...

Vibrant atmosphere. Renown, personal and knowledgeable bartender Francis Kelly. A great place to meet up with friends.
