Best bartenders in the business. Jake and Kayla are absolutely wonderful humans who make the bar fun. Rick, during the day makes the best bloody Mary's. Highly recommend.

I love my neighborhood bar. The bartenders and staff make us feel like family. We love Kayla and Jake on evenings and even on nights when it's super busy, they remain professional, and always remember your drink preference. Great music, live bands and good pours.

The bar tender Kayla on Sunday night jam needs more training and respect! She gets drinks wrong because she seems drunk herself, she yells at customers for not buying anything and is quick to say she will not serve you. I waited in line for 5 min and someone else walks up behind me and the bartender comes over she gives a drink to the person behind me and says they have a tab open when I ask why was not being served she wanted me to leave. Horrible customer service and communication I will never step foot back in there and I will not recommend my friends or family. It has gotten so bad the host of the jam had to complain about this same bar tender. A shame !!! May I add the very first visit she was rude and she felt bad and ran out to me and my husband when we where leaving and says she sorry for the way she talked to us. She knew she was wrong. She also was yelling from the bar to the stage saying cut that down! When she can clearly ask the security to walk over and let the host know. She needs more training and skills it don’t look good at all. And as much as they tell people to make a review oh you will see the truth sooner or later that she’s rude and have race issues as well! I’m a customer and if anyone have a tab open and someone else is in line behind them don’t mean look past or not acknowledge the person when they have been waiting. Never again!!!

I have been coming here for years, and have yet to meet as incredible a bartender as Kayla; here or elsewhere. She is quick, efficient, and keeps every patron safe everytime she works. I love Kayla and her fantastic service and didn't think until now to make a google review about her.This is a great bar, made greater by Kayla in particular!

I happen to enjoy "local" bars where patrons are long-time "regulars". I also enjoy playing pull tabs and POOL, if I go out to a bar. This place has them all!. I felt safe the entire time and the three times I've visited all bartenders were efficient and made me feel welcome...HIGHLY recommended if you enjoy the same things I do in a bar!

I went here with friends after a meetup at Memory Lanes. To be honest, I’m not a huge drinker and this wouldn’t have been somewhere I’d ever visit on my own haha. But I was pleasantly surprised. The drinks I had were super inexpensive, super tasty, and very on-theme/festive. The service was awesome, very fast and very attentive, and friendly—with a little side of that slightly surly attitude that you love to see behind the bar (or at least I do!).One thing that I didn’t like was walking into a huge crowd of people (watching live music) just because Covid is still a real thing. I’m not sure there’s much the establishment can do, I don’t think they were beyond their bounds on capacity. It’s more just a word to the wise to bring/wear a mask if you want to. I just headed out to the outside smoking area (even though I don’t smoke) on the right and a bunch of us sat out there and chatted, which was really fun actually. By the time we went back in, the crowd had died down a bit and I felt much more at ease besides from settling in outside.The live music was great! The singer of the band playing while we were inside was quite good. If you’re looking for local music on a random weekend, this spot might be a good bet.What I liked the most was how comfortable it was to hang out and talk with folks while grabbing a couple drinks. So the crowd wasn’t too rowdy, and the background noise had a nice hum to it. Makes ya feel at home, imho. Kinda of a dive but that’s what one’s likes about it!

Nice neighborhood bar. Pool tables and dart boards. Stage and room to dance. Just pizza and snacks for food. Paper pull tabs and electronic pull tabs. A nice place to have a few after work.
