The service was extremely poor. I visited on May 4th, and despite the bar being quiet, both bartenders were more focused on their phones than attending to customers. Despite calling them over politely multiple times, they either ignored me or briefly acknowledged me before returning to their phones. I was left standing in a nearly empty bar without any service. The only positive aspect was the presence of a pool table; otherwise, I would rate them zero stars.

Dennis was very rude and I as an lgbtq+ individual did not feel welcomed.

Upon my arrival she didn’t hesitate to greet me which is always the first impression I have of the staff.Monica was very attentive and kind throughout the day.Came here to watch the baseball game and when I requested the televisions be switched from what was currently being played the bartender Danny instantly changed the channels for me to enjoy the game.This staff works as a team and is very professional.They are not on their phones or chatting about inappropriate topics like other bars I’ve been to in the area. It’s very refreshing to see a well put together place in downtown.Tues & Wed free billiardsKaraoke on Thurs!HAPPY HOUR EVERY DAY!

Came here to try some cocktails out this past weekend for the art walk hoping to find something good. I ordered 2 different cocktails one with tequila and the other with the other with vodka. I'm not gonna say they were bad just that they were uninspired. Nothing above your typical chain restaurant. I would say id be back but between the cocktails and the cigarette smoke coming in from the people smoking outside the door, I probably won't.

I came here a few days ago thinking it seemed like a chill spot, it wasnt. We had an decent time drinks were ok and all seemed fine until it was time to leave. As we were leaving on of my buddys accidently bumped into one of the bouncers. Instead of just brushing it off and moving on the guard got aggressive got in my buddys face and told to watch where hes going unless looking to get tossed out. Needless to say we left and are never coming back

A great corner location. Friendly staff here. A somewhat limited menu but a great place to hang out.

This neighborhood bar has a fantastic corner location. There are pool tables here, and a full bar. Clean decor and great bartenders here. The food menu is somewhat limited (they had a salad on the menu that they said they actually won't start serving until next month), but everyone seemed to be ordering the wings. I had the burger, and it was fantastic. The drinks were even better. This is a place to explore with the bartender - they have very fresh fruits, and herbs, and bitters, and try to make a new cocktail that appeals to your tastes.

I came in for the Rams wild card watch party. We were there for an hour and never got greeted or handed menus. I went up to the bar to get my brother and I drinks. What really bothered us from this experience is that the guy who appeared to be the owner, wearing a Kupp jersey, obviously ignored us. There were two tables of women sitting right next to us and he was very attentive of them getting them drinks, food, and their checks. Every time he walked over to them he purposely turned his back to us. I would have given 1 star but the bartender who came in later in the night, who was wearing glasses, was really friendly and helpful. He took our food order, got us drinks, and brought our food out. I was really hoping for a better experience since I am a huge sports fan and a bartender. Owner guy probably thought we didn't have money to spend because of how young we look but it's his loss because I always have money to spend. P.S. Thanks for those blue half shots! They were pretty good

1st time experience was great. Was there for the stand up comedy show. Everything went well except when the an employee told us we were charged accidentally 35 dollars on a tab that wasn't ours. Then the the employee told us that we would be reimbursed in a day or two for the mistake. Well it hasn't happened. ?

I was drinking here about two weeks ago with some friends and saw the security and some staff jump 2 guys on the street. This left a bad taste in my mouth not good for business. 6 staff members should not be fighting helpless people on the street was very scary not coming here again.

I don't drink really, but my coworker invited me to try out the appetizers that are half off during happy hour which we happen to make right after work. The bartender is super nice and skilled at pouring draft beer, very little foam which the show, Bar Rescue, taught me is good. She saw I was a bit shy so she didn't badger me, which I appreciated. She did engage more as I got more comfortable. I was also not shamed for not asking for a cocktail just water. I ordered their pork belly Mac and cheese and it was delicious. Mac and cheese didn't feel heavy and the pork belly gave me a popcorn chicken taste/texture. I loved it. My coworker was nice enough to share his wings, which was also yummy and not melt your mouth spicy. It was a bit salty, but I assumed it would pair well with a cocktail or beer. Reminded me of Buffalo wild wings. My boyfriend ordered their burger and parmesan fries. He said it was good and the fry I stole from him was the right amount of crunchy and flavorful. The best part was the food came out hot, which to me means for sure fresh and not microwaved. It's fancy inside, but not stuffy. Feels casual, and the people that stop by are friendly. I felt super comfortable and welcomed despite obviously not being a bar type of person. They also have a nice outdoor seating that reminds me of brunch. Owner even took the time to converse and came off very genuine. He says they are working on building a stage with live music! So that's something to look forward to. There is a parking garage walking distance for $5 (cash only) so it was easy to get to. Highly recommend, especially if you need somewhere to hang out after work to wait for traffic to die down or just chill. This place does not lack TVs so you can catch any game while you relax or pick the music selection from their digital jukebox. Thanks for reading!
