Wood-paneled watering hole with daily drink specials & games such as Ping-Pong & foosball.
It’s a dive bar in every sense of the term. Which is not a bad thing. I did however get racist micro aggressions from staff . It’s a mostly white crowd. Again not a problem. I actually prefer that lol My main complaint is with the bartender with the man bun/ponytail. He basically tried to accuse me of IDENTITY THEFT bc I was using my husbands card and he tried to act as if giving me MY CARD(it’s only the husbands by name. It’s literally my card) back was some hassle. The implication from a WHITE MAN to a black woman that he didn’t want to give me my card back bc how does he know it’s mine. Mind you as this accusation is happening I am literally on the phone with my husband like I had been the last hour of my visit. Sir, I’m Also a bartender. I have never once in 12 years of doing this given much thought about someone’s name and the card as long as they know the name. At the end of the day if I was using someone’s card unauthorized I Would be in trouble not him or the bar. How many rich men come in and their escorts use their cards lol. There is also company cards. When I came back again he unfortunately was working. Admittedly I was a bit sassy. More in a playful way bc this Time I was using my own debit card so I Joked with him to ease the tension. I guess he is not used to someone matching his energy and got in his feelings so he stopped serving me which truthfully I was ok with bc the other bartender actually was good. But I never have been more offended in my life and that says a lot. The bar itself is fine for what Is but the micro aggression and Implications rubbed me the wrong way.
The bar was great! The guy bartender with long curly hair was awful and ruined our experience. Felt like our party was bothering him every time we needed a round of drink or shots and we were lie maintance. The only time we got quick attention was when we paid the tab and he seen my message about how his service was and then finally got his attention and he got mad about it. I’ve owned bars and would never want him anywhere near my staff. Besides him everything was great.
Sunday afternoon, avoiding the perfect weather in the basement, as it should be No regrets. Great skellar bar... Unimposing, casual, and kick a$$. Good place to split some G's...
Well, I read the reviews, and some were accurate, and others no doubt exaterated. Walked in, and the bartender was in an altercation with a stupid drunk, ended up physically throwing him out, kinda exciting! The bathroom didn't reak of piss, and the bartenders were both friendly gentlemen. The drinks were good, and we ordered Devil Dog hot dogs from around the corner, also very good dogs. We had a play to go to down the street, and yes, I'd stop in there again for drinks next time.
Cool place to stop off and grab a cold one and escape the madness of all day shopping. Friendly and attentive staff, clean environments. Was disappointed to find out that they do not have a kitchen although they are ok with you bringing food from other establishments to their outdoor patio. 5 ✨'s!
