The Barn Whiskey Bar

I went for my first time. My friend said it was a cool spot he came on the weekend before and I’m a BIG whiskey drinker. I was excited to go. The bartender with red hair was not friendly. She made my drink wrong. I asked her to remake it, she had slight attitude and then made it worse. Ik my drinks, and she didn’t even measure it correctly with her measuring thing the second time. The menu wouldn’t pull up and she was of no help. The bartenders SET THE MOOD of an establishment. Period. If it wasn’t for my friend , I would NEVER GO BACK. But because he was set on, you gotta come another time , maybe the weekend. - which I shouldn’t have to do. I MIGHT give another try. Sucks because I really was excited to experience that place and something different. Us whiskey drinkers don’t have a lot of choices and places to GO FOR US. Bartenders are everything. The face and vibe are of an establishment.

As a customer I'm sure it's an ok experience. As an employee it was absolute hell!!! I usually don't burn bridges but this was more of the owners doing. As a customer you never get to see what happens in the background, so I'll gove you a little glimps. I was the Manager there and could only take about 8 months of the crap that goes on there, which was longer than other managers that were hired on during my tenure. One of the owners (whom didn't know anything about about the bar/nightclub business) was always trying to start crap. Whether it was between employees, the management, or her own family, she was always on the prowl. I was there for a month and she was already accusing me of theft because she didn't know how to count money. She would go into the safe and take money, on camera, and then start accusing people of stealing money. I had to physically put systems in place just so she couldn't steal from herself and then blame me or the other managers. She would go back into the system and change paperwork, like with payroll or inventory, just to create problems. And if that wasn't bad enough, instead of apologizing when she was shown she was in the wrong, her husband would chime in and and start more crap and try to berate everyone. After I left there covid hit and I filed for unemployment with another job. Unemployment needed to know how much I made, that was it, and instead she tells them that I sexually harassed a bartender that no longer worked there (awfully convenient), in an effort to try and get me denied for unemployment. What she didn't know when making that claim was that me and the bartender that was named, we have known each other for over 10 years and still to this day currently work together and that bartender even admitted on record to unemployment that throughout the 10 plus years she's known me, I have always been professional towards her and everyone she's ever seen me work with. I did receive my unemployment btw and was found to not have sexually harassed anyone. The place I am currently working at, I've been there a total of 5 years (3 1/2 years in 2011 and came back 1 1/2 years ago) and not a single complaint against me, not one single write up, and this club is a lot more strict when it comes to professionalism. in fact in almost 20 years in the bar/nightclub business I've never received a write up, citation, been fired for anything, and I've always been invited to come back to work for every place I've ever worked. I'm sure this will be read by the owners, so I will give a little advice... Your employees are your best asset, and as a leader you should always treat them with respect and dignity because without them you don't have a business. Keep that in mind for the future.

Place is small, but does allow smoking outside on a large covered patio area. For more of a younger crowd. Dress code is very lax... If you get dressed up at all, you will feel out of place. Drinks are reasonable, and they do have an outside bar. Wait time at main bar inside is terrible..... Staff was over worked. Wait time at outside bar was much better. They have 2 pool tables and 3 washer toss games inside, and a small dance floor

My friend and I went here on a Friday night. They did not let us in. They said no basketball shorts though he had on cotton Nike shorts. Explained they weren’t basketball shorts and even ask if we could just sit outside on the patio. Mind you we are black and we were hesitant about going in the first place being in a white area. Looks like we were right. 0/10 do not recommend. Felt the racism as soon as we walked up.
