Great music that'll make you want to two-step or dance however you'd like all evening. There was a band playing Cajun music and put a huge grin on my face. I hadn't heard that music live in nearly a decade.

Feels cozy like you're in someone's living room. They also regularly host solid live music. Affordable and plenty of free parking!

Sam's Town holds it down.
Artists that play here are prepared. Bartenders and staff are very nice. The inside & outside are a great place to be. This is the place that gives you a community feel you won't find anywhere else in town. Thank you Ramsay and team!

Super cute dive bar with plenty of outdoor space. Came here for the two step class and left so can’t say much about service/products/bands but they do have live music often *with cover charge*
Parking: The parking lot fills up quickly ~ I got there early (6-7p) You may have to find parking in the neighborhood so you could end up walking in the dark for a while as the streets are pretty tight and I didn’t see any spots coming in/going out.

Came to enjoy a show with some friends only to be bit by a German Shepard as I was pulling into the parking lot on my motorcycle. I told the people there to which they said “Is it a German Shepard?” So these people know that they have a dog problem with them attacking other folks. People should not have to worry about dogs attacking patrons.
Ramsey is a genius. His band, and all the bands he books are magic

Came here tonight with my dog, who was on leash. There were multiple other dogs off leash around the bar who were sweet and well behaved. Then, an employee with long hair walked out from the bar with his German shepherd off leash. His dog proceeded to run up and attack my 20lb dog. I pried his dog’s jaws off of my dog’s neck and was able to get it to back off by yelling loudly and startling it. The employee/owner of the aggressive dog simply watched. Even so, I didn’t get a chance to say a word to him. In fact, he was the first to speak to ME to say “other dogs were not allowed at the bar, inside or outside” (subtext: “I’m kicking you out of this bar because I’m a small-pricked boy who is too stupid to properly train my dog and too embarrassed to take responsibility for him”).
It left me a little dumbfounded, but I happily left to trot myself down the road to a better bar. Thrilled to never patronize this establishment again and recommend everyone I know to do the same! Very excited to see what eloquent denial the quick-witted owner of this business will post in response to this review!

Rude staff. Loose dogs run around and attack dogs that are on leash.
