such a weird and low class bar. They have no music playing, one bartender/server, and no food. They have a food menu, but apparently no one from the kitchen came in. I have never even heard of that in my whole life. Also, there is indoor smoking, which is an out-of-state person, I did not even know it still legal. Absolutely disgusting.

It's a dive, and sometimes that's what you need. I didn't get our bartender's name, but I imagine she represents the standard. Great place, great atmosphere, just a few seats. Recommended by a good friend, and we had a couple of gin shots and a couple of pints to celebrate our birthdays. Perfect spot for that type of occasion.

What an absolute dump. This place is like somebodies basement. I've been in vfw bars that were nicer than this. And literally everyone was smoking. We were in there for 30 seconds and our cloths and hair stunk of smoke for 2 hours after.

Met friends to play darts. Asked bartender to make me something “fruity” , she nailed it!Love the back patio! And the atmosphere wasn’t too crazy yet full and gave you the night out experience.

Strip club run off. This is where people who got kicked out of the strip club drink. They over serve so if that's what you're looking for this is the perfect place for you. The bartenders are sleazy and too drunk to drive home from work. The atmosphere reeks of "the bar on clinton highway" which is the mix of hanging out after work at a gas station and trying to score drugs (they are sold out by the smoke pit) at a college party that invite high schoolers. Didn't have the food because I don't want food poisoning. All around a terrible place to pop in for a drink unless you're a drug addict.Parking: Sucked

Bad food and worse service. Avoid at all costs.Scroll through the reviews for a minute or two and read some of the 1 and 2 star reviews here. It is endless rude service staff and straight up theft from customers that has gone years without being corrected, which means it is being encouraged from by the owner.My personal review:Arrived at the non-smoking side of the bar, and it was entirely devoid of patrons or service staff. The bar was covered in many empty glasses that had not been cleaned throughout the day. Waited there for 10 minutes at the bar before someone finally came over from the smoking side. The lady that arrived did not greet me, or act friendly in any way. Rather, as sarcastically as possible, she asked me if I owned a shirt with sleeves. I was wearing a (nice) tank top due to the near 100 degree weather we have been having. I was not wearing a "wife beater" or anything offensive or in bad shape. Even still, I was confused at her question and very kindly asked if this type of shirt was not allowed. Her only response was that it says so on the door. I asked her if she knew why this was the policy and she said, again, "because it says so on the door". I informed her that I do, in fact, own many shirts with sleeves and she only said "good", and left back to the smoking side of the bar.If you are the owner of this establishment and you read these reviews, I highly recommend teaching your serve staff some basic manners and to maybe treat customers a little more kindly than this. Even if this policy has any purpose (which it does not seem to), there were much better ways to handle this exchange. This was my local bar, and I will not return to it. I will encourage everyone else to avoid it as well, including via this review.
