I haven't been here in a long time. So, the other night I stopped in with friends. I noticed some things that definitely need attention! First, the chairs need new seats, but even more, the seat on the ladies toilet is completely broken! I'm sorry, but that's totally unacceptable! Fix it!!
The Yacht. Go see Brandon on

Beautiful atmosphere a place for the community
My Friday night visit was decent with a friendly talkative bartender that didn’t push me out quickly after a 12 pm last call. Saturday was crowded with a bartender that catered to the regulars. She was slow to the point of maybe this line of work isn’t your calling. She could figure out prices as she charged me 12$ for two beers/2shots on to change to 15$ and finally 18$. Not cool anyway you look at it even if she wasn’t good at middle school math. I didn’t mind the atmosphere. All kinds of weirdness but nothing bad. Weird seating with a booth a table a few seats at the bar and an area in the middle that made to sense at all. I can’t give the YC a poor review because it’s something you might experience in a true backwoods dive bar. Opening the door of the Yacht Club is kind of like a Cadillac up on blocks in Kim Reynolds front yard….

Great dive bar
Grey and Brandon are the best!
One of my favorite (and only) places I’ll grab a drink. Bartenders are always kind, attentive, personable, and make you feel at home. The variety of music is fantastic and the drinks are great. Love The Yacht.
Ol home week reacquainting woth friends n classmates
I agree with the review that if you are not a regular the bartender will look at you and then finish (or even start) a conversation with the girl he is trying to hit on. Other than that the clientele are chill and so is the vibe. Out of the many places to go on Ingersoll, this ranks near the middle.
