My husband and I semi regularly come here on saturdays to drink and throw darts. My husband has been going to this bar since college. Ashley is usually always there and is a fantastic bartender. We went in for a UK football game and the bartenders (not Ashley) didn’t even ask us to start a tab and immediately cashed us out on a Saturday during a Cats game when hardly anyone was even at the bar. I called the bartender out on it and got a half ass apology. Then the same bartender came back to where we were playing darts and took my full beer and threw it away. My friend went up to the bar to get a second beer, and that same bartender was sitting at the gambling machine hitting her vape. If we do come back, we will not be staying unless Ashley serves us.

Bad news. It's my last place on my way home. It USED to be a GREAT place. Rude bartenders who pick and chose favorites. I just feel like a number. Bartenders are cold, they don't wanna talk. Anyhow, not friendly. To be honest, the karaoke sucks. Get real folks. I've never seen an inexperienced karaoke program. The dude(s) who run it are n̈ice peeps, but inexperienced. Just my observation, no hate.

The Old Guys Pub Crawl added this place to our visited list. This was after I moved to Lexington in August of 2023. We've visited a bar every week since. Since then several other really really old guys have joined us. We need to make a second visit here.

This is a great place to go to have fun and win money. Even if you don't have a lot of money you can still come out of winter. People are friendly can the atmosphere is nice

Not fancy, not trendy, just good food and beer and a warm welcome. Love this place. Also has a pool table and a ton of darts boards.

Still a fun place to go but I feel like they're kind of running on fumes at the moment. Every time I've gone in, the men's room has gotten a little scarier and the pile of broken chairs in the corner is growing. It just seems like they're existing but not taking steps to improve.. That said, the bar staff is super friendly and they still bring in fun entertainment. I hope they start taking pride in the establishment again and clean up the rough edges.

For real, y'all need to put some money back into the business. It's became a run down building with leaks in the roof, a bucket to catch the water, I almost tripped over a bucket full of water right next to the pool table,

It's a little dingy, but the staff are friendly, fun, and do their best to make you feel welcomed. It's a great spot for trivia. The food is what you'd expect from a bar.

The DJ said they do not allow any rap or hip hop songs for karaoke due to the owner thinks it is inappropriate
