Beware of getting scammed here. I was out with some friends celebrating my birthday at axe throwing and decided to stop here for a couple of drinks right after. Definitely feels like a college bar at this point, so wouldn't go back for that reason. It looked like half of the customers were younger than 21. In reading other reviews, it seems common that they knowingly allow underage patrons in as long as they pay at the door. Let me get to my main point here… the focus of this review is on them blatantly scamming me. I only paid for one drink on my own credit card that night at JJ's. It was for a high noon, which was priced at $7.70 before any tax or tip. The receipt had line items below it for 10% alcohol tax, and then a 21% "mandatory service charge", totaling to $10.10 at the bottom of the receipt. Since they already added a mandatory 21% tip to the bill, I didn't wish to add any additional tip. I wrote a horizontal line through the tip line area and wrote $10.10 as the final total. They don't give you copies of the receipt for you to keep, so I don't have any record of it on me. I checked my credit card statement today and it shows a posted charge of $11.11 from JJ Bootleggers. It's not what I wrote on my receipt, but it's also not enough extra money charged for me to waste the time out of my day to contact my credit card company, reach out to the business, etc. so they know EXACTLY what they are doing with adding a small unauthorized amount to my tab. Dirty scammers, fraudulent workers, would avoid at all costs.
