I go here multiple times a month, and trust me when I say it’s not the closest to my house. It’s a tiny hole in the wall, but it reminds me of bars back home on the gulf coast. It’s tiny and comfortable, and other than the regular crowd who sit at the bar all of the time everyone else is always different every night.

Our favorite Bar in town! Ive been going there since 1988 and go in there with my Sons who are regulars there. Great place to go and have a Cigar and a Beer. Bruce and the Staff are laid back and always good to us. It is the best time around the holidays, most of the people from out of town are there (that have grown up in Carmel) and you can run into and old friend! Check it out!

Don't go here during a shift change, the regulars are getting their cards declined and looking for friends. If you are a women expect to get your butt grabbed. My brother who occasionally smokes can't even handle their smoke pollution. Expect to hear about a lot of legal problems. On a positive note they are cheap, dirty, and you don't even have to buy a cigarette to smoke.

The “owners lawyer” didn’t want to hear me talking to another patron about my HORRIBLE experience last night. Asked me to pay my tab and leave and told me I wasn’t welcome here ?. This place is owned by a bunch of looney toons if they think that’s good business. It caters to regulars and that is it. Don’t go here if you’re not a regular.

This bar is not diverse friendly. After coming into the bar to have a drink, we were never greeted. The bartender literally walked past us to check on the people at the pool table and never greeted us. She continued to do everything and check on everyone else except us. I definitely will not be back.

The dive barriest dive bar. Dives so hard it makes the Titan submersible look like Little Tikes. Absolutely amazing.

This is such a local dive joint. It's important to remember that smoking IS allowed. If you're not into that, there's seating outside in the summer. It's a great place for cheap drinks, pool and darts!

If you would like to go to a bar and be harassed by the bartender from the moment you walk in, this is the spot. The bartender was horrendously disrespectful, especially considering that I spent 60 bucks right off the rip. Also, you don't need to ID anyone twice, just ask for a second form.
