This place is racist and homophobic. There are other reviews too that have reported racism, discrimination at this establishment. Probably the most racist establishment I have been to in the US. They stopped serving after like 1 drink! They will kick you out for no reason. Avoid. Good luck if you are brown. And the owner dared to post an almost robotic corporate-lingo reply to my review.

Excellent holiday atmosphere and fun themed cocktails. Can be very busy overwhelming the staff sometimes.

So fun for Christmas but the drinks are very expensive compared to other Christmas bars with over $20 for a themed cocktail!

Not very friendly staff. I sat and waited for an hour for someone to take my order no one did or said a word to me...the Christmas decorations were mid at best just not a very pleasant experience left hungry..
Went to Gibson’s Bar for there holiday theme. It was a nice set up, they had the big out door tent with a bunch of decorations. Fun place to check out to have a drink. Cocktails were about $15 and more which is abit pricy for a small drink, but I guess that’s what you pay theses days.

Tonight was meant to be a special night with friends. I had been inside the building already, had bought drinks, having a good time with my girls for our Christmas gift exchange. After our second drink we went out to our cars to get our Christmas gifts for the exchange. When we came back inside one of the men at the entrance kept telling me to pull out my ID as I was carrying 2 baskets of gifts. I told him let me set these on the table where my drinks are and I’ll show you my ID! He proceeded to follow me inside and say “if you were a guy things would have been different and you would have been tackled down for entering without an ID” i do not appreciate the way he spoke to me. Not handled well AT ALL!!! He should not be speaking to women like that either!

Avoid. Used to be a fun and cool spot. Not anymore, $17 for the shittiest cocktail. It is what it is but I’d go somewhere else. Another place that feels they can overcharge for shitty ingredients and quality.

Cool Halloween decorations, awesome atmosphere, but drinks and service weren't great. Themed cocktails don't justify $20 a drink. When they're kid sized.

It's Halloween season and came to the Gibson Street Bar to experience their impressive Twisted Carnival. We entered from the back where felt like walking into an enclosed circus tent. We loved the atmosphere where there was a massive collection of creepy characters on display. It was a massive photo op and spend a lot of time in here before walking up the stairs into the bar.
The balcony was the same creepiness but the inside was overwhelming. I really like it and the staff did a wonderful job. They also had a special drink menu to pick your poison. I ordered the Ectoplasam. It was a frozen green pineapple drink for tasted very good. They truly went all out with this immersive experience while enjoying great drinks.
