Great drinks, but I don't think the male bartender who was there around 5pm today likes being employed at a bar nor do I feel as if he is particularly fond of Black people- allegedly....
He was rude, I'd never been to this bar before and when I walked up he didn't say a word. Then, when I asked if they had specials or if it was Happy Hour he said, "it's Wednesday, they are right in front of you". He doesn't seem to see a problem with how he spoke to us women of color, but yet we watched him be very friendly with everyone else. Then, when we moved to another bartender he continued to speak to us in a rude manner- saying that she was doing the same thing that she was when she was clearly friendly and inviting.
I have asked for a manager to reach out to me to which I was told, "there are no managers here right now".
I was also not told the name of this rude, young man. Y'all can have this bar...

Best bar worth going to off the square. I've been coming around for the last 10 years. I'm never disappointed, and the bar tenders are chill here.

Great ambience. Very rude staff and poor service. Too many good chill places with decent staff in the area to support this place.

I'd give them 3✨ instead of 5✨, but I'd worry that I'd be the jerk here.

Drafthouse level selection when it comes to the number of options you have to drink from.

Definitely the place you want to go if you want a place to hang with friends, family, or coworkers. I'm here late, but there is so much space that I can't imagine it being hard on a busier night to pick your spot and hang for a while.

Lots of beer, cider, etc options. and even this one that tasted like tart grape/berry juice with only a hint of a taste to signal that it was an alcoholic drink, super stinking good.
I just did a taste tester here, but I'm sure if you are buying they will let you try more, I just asked them about the one since it was different (I don't drink anymore, so I'm not the fanatic you want to ask about alcohol options, but I thought it'd be good to note for the drinkers out there that like ciders and wanted a berry cider).

I changed it from a ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ rating to a ⭐⭐⭐⭐ rating because of the whole dart scenario and them complaining in a rude and ineffective way to me about not throwing the darts "hard" at their dart boards that are so beaten that unless you're throwing it hard enough you wont get a dart to stick to the bullseye.
I started with lighter throws just to make it a relaxing round of throwing darts, but nothing was sticking if it hit on the bullseye or even the 6" diameter around the bullseye.

I try to give as much as I take, I'm constantly trying to not be a bother since I struggle anyways feeling like I belong on this planet, but maybe I was throwing them hard.
I gave a $2 tip just for getting the taster I did (since I changed my mind and didnt want to be a bother) and for answering the questions I had about their selections, and for the hassle of loaning me 3 darts to shoot darts for a little bit....
So that's why it's kind of ridiculous to shout (maybe more of a holler) across the bar at me for 3 rounds until I just happen to realize "oh shit, the guy is *actually* talking at me."
It's more just an odd choice for them than a rude choice, but I just felt like they treated me a little like I came in and asked for service but then didn't tip, was messy in person or in behavior, and like I was the insane one for trying to throw darts at a dartboard with the amount of force it would take to stick.
It was like forfeiting all bullseyes, basically knocking a bunch of the shots towards the floor as they bounce off, to still have them treat me like I was stupid and excessive and wasn't trying to be careful.
