Drinks were amazing. The environment was fantastic. From the bartenders Jesse and Sean, to the friendly patrons, I thoroughly enjoyed this place, as a perfect dive bar.

This place is usually solid. Only reason I give it a one star is because there’s one younger girl bartender there (red head) that has a TERRIBLE attitude problem.
As soon as you walk in and order a drink, she rolls her eyes and has a look of disgust on her face like she’s doing you a huge favor. I saw her belittle another patron once about how he dressed by saying “you don’t look like you belong here” because he wasn’t in townie attire I guess?
Just extremely immature and judgmental behavior on the part of that one bartender.
If you can avoid her, go and enjoy 😉

Finished up 3 nights of DBT Heathens Homecoming at the 40 watt club, next door at Flicker. I got their drink called “Dr. Zhivago” (an espresso martini) with a bit of a twist with the help of my favorite bartender, Jeanie. She was so fun and accommodating so I now call that drink the “Jeanie-tini” Thank Jeanie! You’re the best!

Service could have been better considering how well I tipped but my 4⭐️Is because they should have prices for drinks viewable to the customers. Other then that nice place good atmosphere, i watched the band “Cuddling” play in the theater which was awesome!! The band definitely rocked!! Good vibes!! I’ll definitely be back!
Parking: You would be very lucky to get a spot in front of the bar but there is parking across the street but kind of small.

I guess I'm biased as someone who has gotten to screen movies and hang art here, but Flicker has EVERYTHING. Movie screenings (free!) from Soviet propaganda to BBC ghost stories to Italian sleaze to Japanese truckers; countless metal and hardcore shows; the most fun variety of local art (my favorite art show is the annual Halloween one!). They also have downtown's best public bathroom.

Great little spot on Washington Street near the 40 Watt. Friendly staff, great music and drinks, good snacking food for a late night drop-in.

Great atmosphere ruined by a bartender with six pack abs (pun intended). Please get him behavioral therapy on priority bases.Not just that, he charges 'more' for the same drink that one had last week.You see him serving, go elsewhere.

Great vibes, bartender was amazing. Nightshade family killed it
It's my favorite bar ever. Divey and eclectic atmosphere with smarmy yet sweet bartenders. There's movies projected (with complimentary popcorn) or live music played more often than not, and local art is always on display. What more could I ask for? They stay open later than most bars. It's not really a selling point. Be careful going to any bar after 12 am).
