Such a good time! Great, friendly crowd, fun dance lessons and good music too. Drinks were a little weak, but beer will do here. We will def be back

Lakewood prides themselves on "Times change, values don't", but Cindy at the food stand inside Cowboy Country begs to differ. Super rude and righteous, burnt our sweet potato fries to a charcoal crisp, and she acts like she funds the manufacturing of the paper plate factory. I was so appalled at my interaction with her that I spoke with Brad, the manager on duty, and he apologized on her behalf and said they have been receiving a lot of complaints about Cindy and her poor attitude / performance. Everything else at cowboy country is awesome. Fun crowd, lots of dancing space, mechanical bull, and the women at the retail store are kick ass- cute and wide supply of cowboy hats and clothes.

Came here on a Saturday night with my friend! They had a band for live music which would play in sets throughout the night. In between sets, the DJ played some line dance songs and two step. This bar had more of a middle aged crowd than what I tend to see at country bars that I've been to in Northern California but I think the live music tends to draw the non-young adults. The space had two dance floors - one main one and a side one. It was pretty fun to try out some line dances on the small dance floor when two step was happening on the main one. Beware they don't take card at the door. They have an ATM but easiest if you just bring cash for your cover!

This place was so much fun! I came out on a Saturday night and the place was packed out. The best part was the diversity of the crowd in attendance! There are two dance floors where line dancing and partner dancing takes place. Ladies please be prepared to dance when coming here the guys are going to ask even if you don't know how they are more than willing to teach you so don't be shy get out on the dance floor and enjoy yourself! Make those memories. My only critique is they need to update their payment system. They're still using cash registers from the 80s lol. They only have one credit/debit (that went down a couple times during the night) card machine which slows down the process significantly so I recommend bring CASH to make life easier. There's plenty of seating and standing room and great for large groups and celebrations. They had a dj and a live band alternate playing music. Also Uber here parking can get a bit crazy on busy nights. Drinks are average price Food closes at 9pm $10 cover charge Staff is friendly

Fun line dancing, diverse friendly crowd, and decent food. They have their own parking lot but it does fill up and you can take lessons but they do expect people to know how to do the line dances while they are going on so it's not super beginner friendly

I usually love this bar, I've been coming the past couple years and it has been such a fun time. Recently BAR SERVICE SUCKS. They NEED a better card system instead of just laying all the cards out on a table. the older ladies at the bar cannot keep up and seem grumpy and unwilling to close out your tab. Be prepared to have your credit card held hostage. We brought a new friend hoping to convince her to start coming to cowboy country... and the wait and attitude at the bar made her want to never return. For the potential patrons: still come to cowboy country! It's a fun time, great ambiance Just be aware you might have to wait a while for your card. For the manager: please get a better card system or at the very least get bartenders who can keep up the pace with a decent attitude. I know people will come regardless... but I wouldn't be surprised if you lose revenue on drinks due to this problem.

As a guy with two left feet I was hesitant to give this place a try. As soon as you step into this joint you feel the vibe. The decor is very unique and very country. There’s a dance floor to practice as well as main floor to strut your stuff. Swing on in for a lesson or two. Plenty of drinks and finger foods
Arrived from out of state to go on a line dance cruise. Looked for the closest place to go line dance before we departed the next day. Wanted food you had to go upstairs to order. Worst taco salads we ever ate it was all cold after a 20 minute wait. The 'cooks' all looked like they didnt want to be there or asleep. No ambition or zip to do a good job. Place looks like it's seen better days. The guy giving lessons did a good job, this really the only positive thing I could say

the ambience and people are generally fun. but the bar service SUCKS. I've had a terrible experience with the bartenders every time. They're incredibly rude and one time they gave my card away to someone else. They were halfway down the road and had to be called to come back. Most recently, a group of people took our table while we were dancing and then gave our drinks to the security staff to pick up, even though they were still 1/2 full. when I went to the bartender to let her know they took my wine, she preceded do argue with me saying they wouldn't have taken my drink if it wasn't empty. luckily, it was still on the bar and I pointed it out to her. then without saying anything, she begrudgingly made me a new glass of wine, but in a BROKEN GLASS! cowboy country is a fun time, but they seriously need a new bar staff. the older ladies there are especially rude and inhospitable.

Went on a Saturday night with some friends. There were a ton of tables but any empty table we saw had "reserved" signs The server was nice but when we tried to close our tab we were told we had to go to the bar to close it out. But when we went to the bar and after waiting about 15mins the bartender who was a bit rude, told us we had to close out with our server. So we looked around for a while looking for her. Finally when we found her she told us to follow her to the bar and then were told we had to wait for someone to process the credit cards, we were all pretty annoyed at this point and waited at the bar for another 10mins until they finally gave us our cards back. In other words, bring cash it definitely seemed easier than waiting around for one specific person to process our cards. Besides that the music was great and they had dance lessons at 7 and 8. We just ordered drinks which were nothing special, not sure if they actually had food.

Disappointing it's costs $10 cover charge to come in here and drink 5 dollar bottles of beer they do not have one single beer on tap they only have bottles. The current management should rethink their goals in life this place is filthy mess that hasn't been cleaned it's dirt seats are torn on chairs paint is all flaked away. This place was let go and milked for what it's worth and now it's ran down the cover charge is what will make me never come back here again talk about gouging I get here at 12 and they close at 2 and it cost me 10 just to walk into the door
Good food cold beer and great entertainment.
