What a gem of a place! We wandered in here for a drink and absolutely loved the eclectic atmosphere. One of the owners, Mary, was working the bar and was such a joy to chat with and hear her stories.

Awesome atmosphere and really cool bar. One of the bartenders was very rude and incredibly condescending towards me several times throughout the night. The shorter skinny blonde haired girl with glasses. Got shitty with me when I inquired about why there was $15 hold on my card after buying a single $3 beer. Also started belittling members of an out of town band when they were only attempting to set up some gear on the stage. Not sure what the continuous attitude was for but she definitely needs to go work somewhere NOT around people. I’m sure the bar will respond to this review in a negative fashion instead of taking the criticisms and adjusting from there.

I almost never write reviews, but I think this is important for anyone to read if they are considering doing business with this place.
I arrived here with a friend of mine some weeks ago because we saw that they had a party going on.
They charged $15 for each of us as a cover at the door, and we walked in. However, within 5 minutes (and no more than 5 minutes) we realised that the music was not our style… a little hardcore, which is fine, but we didn’t realise this before we had paid. Since we had just entered a moment before, we decided to go back out and ask if we could have our money back.
I explained very nicely to the owner (Mary) that we had just entered and realised that the music wasn’t for us and apologised for the inconvenience (the doorman also confirmed with her that we had just entered a couple minutes before) and if it were possible to have our money back. She gave me a look with so much (honestly, I can say this:) disgust, shaking her head and said, „NO. Absolutely not. It is UNHEARD of that you come over here and request this. NOBODY does this. This money is for the BAND and you’re wanting to take that away from them??? UNHEARD of.“ And wanted me to leave immediately. I had explained that for my friend and I $30 was a lot as we are both students, and reminded her that we were only inside for a couple minutes. She refused and continued repeating those words and wanting me to leave… I felt absolutely terrible.
I had realised that this was actually one of the meanest encounters I had actually ever experienced with a woman; from the way she looked at me, talked to me, and treated me. She treated me honestly as if I were not worth a single cent of her time and gave me such a look of hatred and disgust that I can’t even describe. It was very obvious that money was more important to her than being kind or even being respectful to another human being. She could have declined my offer in a respectful manner, and I would have accepted it, but that is absolutely not what happened. I left the place shaking with shock and my friend and I felt terrible.

One of my favorite retro dive bars. Cool, but not pretentious. Great spot for an impromptu wedding, punk rock, and karaoke.

I don’t recommend these guys for any type of ceremony. They lady that sets things up does not respond once they get you money and on top Of that she’s rude. My brother has cancer so I reach out numerous times to her and Cheryl trying to get my plans together and never heard a word. She refused to refund us and it’s just not good business. Be careful dealing with shady businesses especially for an important day like your wedding or elopement whatever it is that you are doing.

How bizarre, a quote from a song, and it sums up this cool little bar. We went to pop up vintage market. If it wasn’t for the vintage event we would not have visited. I am so happy we did. It is different in a good way. The barkeep, is a pleasant young lady, who will cheerfully serve you. If you are in the area, make sure you stop in. Also if you are into vintage, check out their pop up market.

Love Fleetwoods! Thanks for hosting awesome performances including Fringe!
Fleetwoods is a great and unique space. Part bar, part thrift store, and part wedding venue, it has it all!
