Great spot to hang out, have a drink, play pool or darts, or stare at a wall...whatever you're in to

Such a chill place. Always generous with the drinks and fairly priced. No food yet though.

A dive bar with pool tables in the back but I wanted someplace I could sit with a beer while my van was plugged into the "free" outlets provided by the municipality. When I walked in, a lively bunch of folks having a good time. I decided this was a spot I could stay.Sitting down with my beer in the back, that's when the music started. Super loud and from a speaker that was just a little bit blown. Enough to be grating. I finished the beer and headed elsewhere.If you're looking for a good loud time, this might be the spot for you.Parking: Free parking lot in the back.

Its a great bar if the right bartender is working....

Kenneth Byrd

Great service. Three pool tables and darts. Nice patio area and in safe location. It's the best

Cecily D.

Terrible terrible service the bartender wouldn't take our order and when she finally did she closed us out while we were still there. Forged our signature tipped herself and all her name was Amber and she even came from behind the bar and assaulted my friend. I would suggest any other place but here.

Adam Frank

Quaint little bar with a decent vibe. 3 pools tables, seemingly all in good shape

Marshall Goodwin

Best standard bar experience imaginable.The atmosphere is perfect. The music is perfect. The art on the walls, the bar games they have, even the chairs are fantastic.It's not too big but not too small. The servers are the BEST.Being at Al's Bar feels like being on the set of a TV show. It's incredible.Highly highly highly recommend checking them out, even if you don't drink, just to see what a good bar is supposed to be like. They set the bar for bars. And they got good snacks too.

Absolutely stupendous establishment. Each lady behind the bar works with the utmost of professionalism. They offer a large pool roo, two dart boards and a great juke box. The price of drink awesome, and atmosphere pleasant.

There's a heavy 'trump' presence here. I ordered a Knob Creek, watched it get poured, and then realized it was Bulleit in my glass (I happened to be there with a well known, highly respected flavor chemist who literally created the Bulleit flavor profile). I suspect they are filling top-shelf liquor bottles with lower cost booze. This place has all the charm of a mid-80s raised ranch basement playroom. I love a good dive bar, but this is just trash. Friendly place though, nice bartenders. People bring dogs in too. I just can't abide a place that I think is dishonest.
