The karaoke man didn't let me sing because he said my song was a questionable choice.

Stopped here around midnight on a Saturday. It was pretty dead, but they had karaoke. We had 6 people, a few more came, it was a great time. Bartender and karaoke dj were friendly.

Best hidden secret in NE. Friendly staff and a nice little patio. Bring cash because they won't swipe credit cards

Cash only dive bar, attentive bartender, local beer selection, recently remodeled bathrooms that are SUPER clean. Women’s even had free menstrual products.

The bartender was charging and serving me inconsistently. First round was an NA beer + a soda water. He gave me the soda in the smallest glass I've ever seen an NA drink in while everyone else drinking water or soda had huge glasses. He charged me $7 for that. Later I asked for more soda but a larger glass. The next glass was slightly larger, but still only about half the volume he was serving other NA drinks in. He charged me $2 for that. After that round I'd tipped him a total of $4 on $9 work of charges, well over 40%.

I later asked for another NA beer and a refill on the soda water. He charged me $9 that time. Same order as the first time, and he'd already charged me another $2 for soda afterward.

I'd been there a few times before, and this bartender was not the same one as before. The previous one was charging consistently and at least giving me a glass large enough for more than two tiny sips of soda water.

A really chill dive bar. Prices are fair, about what you'd expect from a bar in the area. Good live music often as well.

Be aware it is cash only, but there is an on site ATM

Came to see Little Ripley play a set on St Patrick's Day. Loved it! Extra special, really delicious baked beans and corned beef pork sandwich with Russian coleslaw left me wanting more!!

Last night, my band, July Fighter, played a show there. I hadn't been there in 7-10 years. It has the Lee's charm, but it's clean and has new bathrooms and a new sound system.

This friendly, oddballed comedy open mic is still one of the most notorious in town despite its recent purge. At the end of a raucous Thursday the hosts play their hearts out with music.
