I’ve lived around the area for a while. It was a Friday night, also my birthday at midnight. Don’t try to go in the front door because no one will let you in, you have to go to the back through the porch so security can ID you. Then all the good beers were gone, of course. Right at 1 am ON A FRIDAY they yell at you to get out. After that you have 5 minutes to vacate if you haven’t at 1:10 security will aggressively tell you to leave, or else. Also, even inside, your drink is going to be in a plastic cup even though it lets off to be a high class spot. It used to be so much better! So sad!

This place always has friendly staff that follow the statues laid out by the city. They’re amazing and we always come back.

I wish I could give this bar less stars. I enjoyed the ambiance, but the experience was completely ruined at closing time. The staff abruptly and rudely told everyone to leave the moment the clock hit 1 AM. When we moved to the patio to finish our drinks, we were told again—this time in an even more hostile manner—to leave immediately.
When we voiced our concerns, one employee became confrontational, escalating the situation unnecessarily. He acted as if he wanted to start a physical altercation. It’s disappointing that such a nice spot was ruined by unprofessional and aggressive behavior.

I don’t think that I have ever been treated so rudely in my 55 years. Upon closing, at 1am, the staff was intentionally belligerent and aggressive in forcing us to leave immediately. Zero, Absolutely zero time was allowed to finish drinks and make an orderly exit. The staff was just short of actual violence in driving us from premises - as if we were trespassers instead of paying customers. Stay away from this establishment.

Ambience was great for a couple hangout. Music was low key but nice, had a variety of genres. Staff very accommodating. Only went for drinks so did not ask about food.

Highly recommend coming here on a warm summer evening to sit on the roof with some friends. Super lively atmosphere.
Only place I’ve been to that has a White Russian (albeit it was in a can.) Still, think it’s a testament to their variety of cocktails.
It was the girl’s first day that was serving us, and she did wonderful :)

the bouncer is an a hole he yelled at my friend and put his hands on her but the bartenders are sweetie mc sweethearts❤️
Bouncer put his hands on me and pushed me. Drink fire though?
Security guard was extremely rude to me. I won't be going here again. Music was also too loud and the darts are broken.
