Great vibes, good music and that's all second to the friendly staff.
Last night, I paid a $20 cover to see a DJ. The music was fine, but the experience was ruined by the male bartender’s behavior. My friend and I ordered one drink each. When he later offered us another round, we both clearly said no and asked for the bill. Despite this, he returned with two more drinks. When we reminded him we hadn’t ordered them, he insisted we had and then slammed his fist on our table when we refused them. This was aggressive, unprofessional, and made us feel unsafe. I will not be returning, and I wouldn’t recommend this venue to anyone who expects respectful service.

Disappointing. The drinks weren't good., but expensive. Isn't this supposed to be their claim to fame? Yikes. To top it off, unfriendedly staff. Our first time in and our last. There's no reason to go back.
Best hometown bar in Nanaimo with the very BEST beautiful soul of an owner. We love you and the special place you’ve made for ALL people!!
A genuinely brilliant place, soooo much fun, the owner is so welcoming and makes being there such a fantastic experience

Live music,cozy,classic bar. My favourite bar in Nanaimo. Thank you for such a great night!
That drink was amazing I want to work here omfg
This is a message to the three male children who decided to have their first drink this evening. Your picture has been taken and the damage to the establishment didn’t go unnoticed. It would be in your best interest to cough up the cash to pay for the damages.
Awesome bar! Fantastic drinks and incredible atmosphere
Ask for Caroline, say you’re a rugby fan. Nuf said.
