Food overpriced . Chicken wings come with potato chips only, Bfr! Bartenders are racist, only likes serving yt folks. This place gives hillbilly vibes. If you not a blood colored neck, don’t waste your money here.

LISTEN TO THE OTHER REVIEWERS. I am apparently not the only one to have this problem, Stopped in for a beer today, spent a minute waiting for the bartender to finish her chat with a friend, she didn't stop talking until my patience ran out and I started to leave, then she yells out as I am walking to the door "what can I get you?" Way too little, way to late. Been here a bunch in the past, but been about three years. Elephant is a ten for everything except service, which is a zero. Went to the FreeLoader half mile down the road, bartender asked what I wanted before I ever got to the bar. Will be hanging out here from now on.

Go to joint for good conversation, food and drink. Emily and Kasi are the best. Mornings and early afternoons are when I visit, do not know anything about the night life. Even thought they are remodeling they are open. Drop by sometime.

The place was busy but everyone was smiling and the bartenders were all busy helping guests. I was taken care of quickly by one of them. My drink was on point.

The food was awesome. The pizza dough was good but not fully cooked it was soft and spongey.The service was great, both gentlemen were really nice and super friendly. Only issue I had with the service was we were talked out of ordering the super nachos because my fat self wanted them all to myself, and one of the men behind the bar decided that it wasn't a "good idea" or "doable" because the rest of my party was ordering food as well.The atmosphere was okay. I know that with it being a bar, it's going to be loud, but it's hard to have a mellow or calm time when the music is blaring and people have to yell in order for anyone to hear them add alcohol to that, then boom, 10x louder than it actually needs to be.

I've been coming to this place for years. Foods not bad. The staff is usually friendly.

Personally, I like this place. Saturday nights are fun and I always leave in an ambulance(I’m kidding lol) but the bartenders do pour heavy so if you’re a lightweight like me lmfaooo be careful . Their jojos are fire and their wings are yummy too. Plus, I like that they have pool and the vibes are just all around nice (: never a dull moment at pink

Bartender was disrespectful from the start and sarcastically said “thank you for the dollar” when I over tipped her. The regulars were cool. Shot some nice games with Josh and Ulysses. Bartender acted like she was doing me a favor. Every other tavern on lancaster pours better except the tiki. Hint-for the Monday night bartender, treat strangers kindly. You don’t automatically get tipped for doing nothing but making a newcomer feel unwelcomed.

Amazing food and great service.

Amazing food and great service.

Older bartender constantly goes up to customers asking why they haven’t tipped after having the WORST attitude towards people. If it’s your birthday don’t have anyone sing happy birthday to you bc you’ll get cut off along with being a part of the LGBTQ+ you’ll get harassed by not only customers but bartenders as well. Want a drink on a busy night? Good luck bc the girl bartender in her mid 40s is gonna tell you “it’s really busy” and send you away. Very unfortunate because the atmosphere is great. It’s just the staff and regulars that make it worth not going. Would recommend going to nobles tavern instead.
