If I could give this place a zero star review, I definitely would. As soon as I walked through the door, the bartender immediately sized me up. I did not think anything of this until I approached the bar and was ordering from another bartender when she came over and immediately cut me off mid order and said she would take my order. While I thought this was weird, I went along with until I went to give her a tip, at which time she said “I have all the tip I need right here” and groped upon my private areas. When I yelped and scurried away she taunted me and told me “I must have been a homosexual person” which I am not in the slightest and never have been (ever) for turning away her childish sexual advances. I was disgusted by this sexual deviancy and I have been in intense outpatient therapy since and have been silent about this matter for far too long.

Rude people working here. Bartender hassled me to give a bigger tip, while I was in the middle of tipping. After I did tip more (I gave $5 after just ordering another beer, because I felt pressured. What is wrong with them?!) they wouldn’t stop talking about it. They had a very judgey and weird vibe the rest of the night and ultimately didn’t make us feel welcome.

The owner’s very response to this review is just proof enough that they are uppity and rude to their customers unless they are a regular… And they’re also liars. I was with my group the whole time they never bought you guys shots so you’re just making stuff up now. And again you never disputed the fact that you hassled me for more money. I gave you a one star review because you obviously deserve one. You gave me a zero star experience. I would give you zero stars if I could.

Also you and your bartender gave me many drinks. So if you claim I was so over-served before arriving, and it was so obvious then why were you still serving me? You just like to make things up because you are getting the bad review that you deserve. While I look inward as you suggested, maybe you should too.

Great local spot, with a terrific selection of whiskey.

This place has a dive bar feel (mean that as a positive). It's chill but has a decent selection. The music isn't so loud. They are cash only, but have an ATM.

Really a bummer this place is cash only. Would have bought more drinks. I think telling customers to use the ATM isn’t a good way to solve that.

This was a chill bar to walk to after an event at Artifact Events. Inexpensive drinks, cash only.

Parking: Easy to find street parking out front
