Chill vibe dive bar, cheap drinks, R&B on the juke, faintish smell of reefer in the air. Mix of Black and white folks just hanging out and getting along. Solid neighborhood spot.

If a dive bar could be a chameleon, this place would be it. If not for the big mural screaming "Pump House," one would think this is the management office for the adjacent apartment buildings. Don't be fooled, for once you find this gem off of the beaten path of SE Kalamazoo near 42nd Street you will find a great and relaxed atmosphere with down-to-earth regulars and a pool table, and the drinks are more than affordable making this dive of SE GR a must.

Sign outside says food, you come inside & the bartender was annoyed because I asked for food. Responded "we dont have food or a kitchen" đŸ€” 💭

Me and my friends have been here at many times, and every time the owner treats us badly, is really rude and stand off ish- but only when the women come. When the men in our group come by themselves, they have no issues at all. Even the men said our group get treated rudely when the women come with. I don’t what his problem is, but it seems like he truly only likes his old regulars and is never in the mood for non regulars, especially women, to come in. Very inhospitable.its not wonder it’s always dead and NOT vibing when we go.

RUNNNNNN! It stinks, it’s dirty, it’s dark, it’s ugly and the female who was working around 2:30pm on Fri, 26 July 2024 has the nastiest disposition one who works in customer service could have.

I walked in, the miserable haggard behind the bar didn’t speak despite the fact that I did several times. I asked for a margarita, she mumbled, “I guess” and some other choice, negative, surly words. I asked her to repeat herself, she repeated the, “I guess” part and honestly, that was enough for me to tell her where she could put the drink, her funky attitude and that hole in the wall that needs disappear.

Florentine’s is across the street and has decent food. Go there — go to Timbuktu — go anywhere besides this place.

Passing through and found this hidden gem. If you are looking for a hole in the wall “dive bar” this is the place! Even got a chance to meet the owner. Super nice guy.
