So much fun. A real good atmosphere and size. Seating at the bar or at tables. The times I've gone there's been live music, which has been awesome. I also see a DJ Booth set up. Good drinks. Good vibes.

i love this place! this is my neighborhood spot--truly has some of the best bartenders in the city and a diverse clientele. i've had many, many interesting conversations here with both staff and patrons and have also met many new friends. and they serve their citywide ($5) (which they invented btw) with a PBR ($3 a can), which is the superior choice.

i'm a single woman and usually go to this bar alone. whenever i've had problems with men here (happens from time to time, not the bar's fault), the bartenders have ALWAYS had my back (shout out to my girl, Kelly!!) both of the doormen do an excellent job of keeping things safe and in control inside the bar too.

the food from their restaurant next door is exactly what you need after a night of drinking, and the events B&B holds are the shit. they have the best karaoke night in the city, and the drag night is absolutely worth checking out. the live music and dj's also never disappoint. and during football season, they have the games on (go birds!)

it's a classic dive bar, maybe one of THE dives in the city. a MUST visit for any dedicated PBR-head. 10/10. oh! and also the bathrooms are clean!!!! what more could you want??

ps. it's cash only but there is an atm inside

Awesome spot. The jazz band was great, and service was fast and friendly. $3 PBRs hit the spot. Cash only, but they have an ATM inside.

The “drag” night is offensive to marginalized groups, as all such events are. It’s very disappointing to see that this place hosts these events just to make $ off of promoting negativity.

The Friday night band was amazing! The crowd was super into the music and the staff was very nice. Cash only bar BTW
