No food... Only popcorn.

Quick drinks, cheap prices, free popcorn, a pool table, jukebox, outdoor patio, regulars and bartenders I consider friends, what's not to like? It's the best hangout spot in Marquette by a mile.

Super cute hole in the wall biker style bar with a wide array of interesting knick knacks. Good service and organic cucumber vodka, who knew!

They've cleaned this place up a lot since I was there 20 years ago, but it lost it's unique atmosphere.
I guess I liked it dingy.

Look I’ve been going to this bar for 10 years and I love this place but don’t go there with the manger is working her service horrible. The rest of the bartenders are great but she leaves such a bad taste in my mouth I just can’t drink there anymore.Edit to add more. The manager personally messaged me through Facebook which I didn’t care for and said some stuff. So, here is the rest. Lowering my star rating from a 4 to a two for the personal messages.I went there for years and got ignored and rude service from her, the rest of the staff is amazing. Not until she saw how much I spent and tipped the bartenders that gave me great service did she even acknowledge my presence. I don’t care for that or the personal message. It’s really unprofessional and disrespectful.I loved the nickel been going there since 2010, but I see no point in returning until the management changes.
