The bouncer was incredibly rude. It was definitely a misunderstanding but in my experience if I’m the person who doesn’t have all the information and someone is telling me something try being a little reasonable and understanding instead of just yelling. The DJ and I were friends, I was dancing down in the pit with my friends he waved me over so I go up and he says he has to go to the bathroom and to stay here, so my friends and I are chilling dancing not really doing anything, all the sudden bouncers come over and it was really one in particular, im trying to explain that he told me to stay here, he’s just yelling at me so we get down and the DJ comes back and explains that we’re friends and the bouncer says oh ok, and personally If im rude to someone I would apologize and he didn’t and it went downhill from there. Must be compensating cause as 6ft buff man doesn’t make sense to get in a girls face and yell at her. Honestly never want to come back.

I GOT ROOFIED BY THE BARTENDER. One of the bartenders, Andrew I believe, looked like he was actually on drugs serving straight vodka as mixed drinks. He was sticking his tongue out really uncomfortably at people with a sick look in his eyes. Anyways, I waited like 30 minutes as he went through the entire row 3x, skipping me repeatedly. As someone who works in customer service myself, I thought to let him know "hey you skipped me like twice." mf b!tches me out multiple times and then serves my friend who's stood there maybe 5 secs. I tell my friend my order and we get the drinks, my vodka cran was straight vodka with just enough cran to make it red. That was my first drink... I drink like half and accidentally spill the rest, so I get my second drink from one of their other bars and it's a vodka red bull so it's gone pretty quickly. I had a drink and a half.... why am i no longer able to walk or talk? my conclusion.. Andrew you sick fck. I think he just didn't want me coming back and getting another drink so he just fcked me up with a ton of vodka and a side of roofie. No one else touched my drinks bro. The district doesn't have a phone number so I had to do this publicly. But fr, please be careful ladies, there are sick bartenders that will do this to you. My only hope here is for someone in management to read this and do something about it. Anything coulda happened and it sucks that there's really no way to hold anyone accountable. Bar District.. please please please look into this and keep your custys happy n safe within your measures. thanks.

3 out of the 4 times I went were great. That 4th time, was just disappointing. The DJ thought he was at a South American rave or something. Music was not a good fit. The bartenders could not get a Long Island IceT figured out. And no food at all.

Advertised online as ladies' night $10, my wife was charged $12. According to other posts, some people have been charged as high as $20 for ladies' night! Why the variance? Now pls understand we've been here before, and the DJ those nights had a solid mix of multiple decades of top rated dance music. Even the newest stuff got you on the floor. Well, not tonight! The DJ attempts to turn it into rave. I've been to raves, I like raves. What this guy did was just poor taste, repetitive, and over modulated. And as for the bar, I ordered a Long Island and got a drink that looked like a rum and coke. It's supposed to be just enough soda to create that tea like color. Second drink order, had someone else make it and thought I had a chance. What did I get? Who knows! But it tasted fruity. Returned it, and the person who was making the 3rd drink was my friend from drink #1 again. This time, the pours were even shorter counts than the first, and when the soda started being added, the drink was still 25% away from the rim. All I could taste was the coke. This was when we walked out. What a joke!

Came on Thursday the 28 of December and the music was not as good as it usually is. Usually a GREAT bar but with the wrong dj it doesn’t work.

The 2 head bouncers Brad and Alex I believe it is they are horrible bouncers they don’t respect any of the customers and body shame the hell out of girls they will find any way to get someone banned example they banned me because they didn’t like me ok that’s funny. They will ban girls for not dressing correctly y’all are weird for that one. They also like going up to people and telling you gotta go when they will be talking to someone these two need to get talked about because I’m pretty sure they are both a perv

I went to Rec tonight in my halloween costume and was told i was breaking rules because my costume wasn’t closed. I saw SEVERAL men with their shirts open and no words were spoken to them. The fact I had had my shirt open (as every other man can wear) and my nipples were covered and i was still told i should be kicked out. I am astonished by the judgement and general stereotypes that were placed on me.. I have been to this bar so many times and have never experienced the sexism I experienced. Not only was I told i can’t wear it but I was told that my costume was disappointing to women. If you want to be in a comfortable atmosphere do not go here.

Pretty quiet once it gets past 12:30, but their deals on Ladies night Fridays and Ramband are super tough to beat. Great spot to pregame if you're looking to have fun in Old Town on a night

this place is the worst bar in Fort Collins. packed with rapey creepy men, bouncers don't care about customers safety. not to mention bartenders are incompetent and the building itself is completely filthy. sticky floors and the area behind the bar is visibly dirty. yuck.

They don’t have scotch, only whiskey. Uh scotch is… never mind. This place is miserable at 10:30 on Saturday night. Avoid.
