Sucks, criminally over priced. $42 for two coors lights and 2 shots of Jack Daniel’s in a plastic shot glass. This place is more expensive than the ski resorts. Plus it’s cash only

I normally don't write reviews but this one had to be stated. I came to BB with my family and friends decided to have a quick drink at the bar and play pool. Me and my boys arrived almost 12 a clock we walked to the bar and soon as we knocked on the door the Bouncer opened the door and said they're not letting anybody in then closed the door on us. Mind you it's 12 now and the place close at 2am the bar was not packed. The bouncer told me they weren't letting people in just letting people out. I wonder why when the place isn't closed or closing. So I sat there and waited for people to come out to tell me that they don't know why we weren't being let it. I don't normally use the race card but I very much felt like we were being profiled. Honest I wouldn't recommend going to this place check the negative reviews those are the real ones. DESERVES 0 stars!

Outrageously expensive for a cash only bar

Came with a party of 15 to watch the later game and play pool. One bartender on for the entire bar. Zero acknowledgement while I stood at the bar as he moved like molasses. Seriously ?!? 1 bartender with shjt customer service skills ??? Must be the mentality of this town. Sad. Left after 30 minutes of waiting to even be acknowledged as I stood at the bar.

Fun place for drinks and pool. It was pretty busy for a Friday night. The bartender was helpful and Friendly. We were enjoying ourselves before the comedy show came on.

A homophobic establishment. The DJ doesn’t care about anyone but himself, and on karaoke nights prioritizes himself over everyone else. Random patrons pushed us out of the bar for asking to be treated equally. You spell it KARAOKE, not kareoke.

We arrived at 830 pm on a Saturday night and were told by the bouncer at the door that the kitchen was still open until midnight - WRONG. Upon trying to order food they informed us that the kitchen closed at 8 pm. We shared with the bartender that we paid $10 total cover charge for 2 to order food and we would like a refund and would leave right away. They said no. Bartender connected with the bouncer and realized there was miscommunication. They realized their error and re-opened their kitchen for us which we appreciate but then we proceeded to pay an exaggerated price for two entrees - For fish tacos and a pulled pork sandwich. And they wouldn't take card and said we could go to the ATM to pull cash out. (Unfortunately weren't informed of this at the door either) - Luckily we had cash. So be aware - bring cash - arrive before the kitchen closes and don't get swindled by the bouncer. Food was okay but not worth the cost. Wanted to write a review for people to be aware of what you can expect. Bartender was friendly and tried to help but still upset at the miscommunication. 3 stars to the bartender for trying to help... probably won't be back - would have liked some recovery on the customer service P.s. still left a tip - bc the bartender deserved it *note to add* They reopened the kitchen for everyone else - glad they did that especially since the bouncer was sharing the kitchen was still open.

Overpriced food that isn’t fresh and taste bad . Food had no seasoning at all .

What an outstanding experience I had here. I was instantly greeted by the amazing bartender (Lauren or Lo). She was absolutely amazing to have a conversation with as well as gave me recommendations for what to get for food. She recommended the chicken sandwich and it was honestly an outstanding chicken sandwich. I was chatting with her for quite a bit, and she was extremely nice and always on top of Everything. And was also extremely nice when dealing with anyone else that I saw walking to the bar. I highly recommend going here as this has a great atmosphere and plenty of pool tables And an amazing bartender!

The food is ok. We shared the Nachos. Very large portions. There aren't any waiters. So you have to walk around and order drinks or food. I had a few drinks. There was karaoke on Thursday when we were there and 2 groups of young adults having fun and singing. A few really good singers. The kj (karaoke host) was very short and to the point almost rude. He was singing very grungy angry songs and cut everyone off before the last for min of their songs. The drinks were too pricey for a dive bar but tasty any way. This place is better for the younger 21+ crowd. Probably won't go back because of the unfriendly staff. Locals only vibe.

Great place for pool and karaoke! I went here with my friend after dinner in the village for some pool. We are pleasantly surprised that there's also karaoke available. They have almost every single song and think of available for a karaoke, we sing a country song and an EDM song. They have about seven or eight pool tables, we were there a little early so it's just us at first, but by 9:00 p.m. the place is packed. I would take that into consideration if you are sat on playing pool, you may have to wait for a table to clear. I wasn't drinking myself, but my friends were, they had a pleasant experience with the bar. I only interact with the bartender to ask for change to play pool, he is very nice and friendly. This is a great place to go out and socialize with friends.

Fun place to hang. Plenty of pool tables. Two large bars. Stage with music and dancing for after 9 pm. A bit pricy and only cash on Friday and satirdays

This place was absolute trash. One of the bouncer kept aggressively saying there was a cover fee and belittling customers who were waiting in line. It was overall very sad to see and it seemed like this man just needed a hug. He then started to tell our entire group to go to an other bar down the road, where there's other guys, inferring that sounds like a bad time (homophobia maybe??). Would highly recommend saving your money and not going to this establishment.

Came here after waiting for our Airbnb to check in. The only bartender at the bar was being so unprofessional. She refused to take my order while playing pool. So I went to the front counter of the bar and she skipped me to serve 2 more ppl who had just walked in. I had already placed my order and she still ignored me. I don’t usually write reviews unless it’s a good one but she really did it. Her lack of hospitality should never be experience at a bar. As a business owner she showed no concern for her job or customers. Hope she gets reprimanded.
