I commented on a post about this bar as an unrelated spectator and someone affiliated with the bar—two people actually—spammed my picture assuming I was the anonymous person that complained, bullying me. This place needs to cut ties with ugly actors, but so far is associated with bullies and stalkers. The original post is about racism, and I think the confusion came from the fact I am the same race as the person who complained. I believe the reviews accusing them of discrimination now.

My sister, who’s 29 years old, went to this bar, which is a place she’s been to several times before — and was treated with unbelievable disrespect. The bartender (greasy, unkempt DRUNK male, about 50) accused her of being underage, swore at her, refused to give her ID back, and then handed it to some random man she barely knew instead. When I showed up to support her and calmly asked for the manager, he immediately started swearing at me too, saying he “wasn’t serving me shit,” even though I hadn’t said a single word to him before that.

For context, my sister and I were the only Black people in that bar. Everyone else was white. So not only was this interaction completely unprofessional — it also felt racially charged. The bartender’s aggression and attitude were totally unprovoked, and the fact that he wouldn’t even return her ID directly to her was unacceptable and unsafe.

We asked for a manager, and were told, “We’re all the manager.” That kind of response says a lot about the lack of accountability here. No one should be spoken to like that, especially in a place that’s supposed to be welcoming to the public.

I hope ownership takes this seriously, because this experience was humiliating, hostile, and completely unnecessary. People deserve to feel safe and respected when they walk into an establishment — not profiled, cursed at, or dismissed.

If you're looking for a dive bar with cheap drinks, you've found it. Can't really complain if that's all you're after. I was here for St. Patrick's day and it was a madhouse, which is to be expected. I also went 3 months later and it was an ok experience. I'm docking a couple of stars because the bartender was kinda rude, ignored me for a while at first even though no one else was trying to order. Looked put out, like I was bothering him, every time I tried to order something.

Cute place for a chill drink with friends! It’s definently the neighborhood bar feel where you walk in and everyone is super friendly! I got a local cider and it was so good! The bartenders were so nice and very attentive. Highly recommend!

Fun dive bar with darts, popcorn, and ample seating - great atmosphere in general. Drinks aren’t anything special, but that’s not really the point of going to a dive bar.

Horribly rude staff, dont go here. I was nothing but kind to the staff, they are walking around with a stick up their ***, spend your money elsewhere. I was really disappointed and their food was mid. I went with my husband and a friend, we all hate it now.
