Great drinks, modest price! Jazzy music 🎶 more of an upscale feel for Ogden.

It's such a cute place! New management has really spiced the place up. It's really cute inside and the drinks are reasonable, the bartenders are great and the atmosphere is just fun and alive! There was a live band last night and they did really well.

My bartender Nate was amazing. He's fast, efficient, personable, inviting and sweet.

The doorman/bouncer was super sweet also and did a great job protecting us ladies and the bar. Great experience!!!

This is an okay bar but the food options are small, mediocre, and expensive for what they are. The new menu is a sharp downgrade from what they used to have but their drink selection is good at least.

I’ve come to renditions of this Bar for the last 20 years. Whoever owns it has their pros and cons on how they conduct their business and rightfully so. I recently have considered going to a different place due to their sharp rise in beer prices. For what it’s worth.

New bar got bought out by Republicans, fired the old staff, stopped doing the events we loved, and jacked up prices. I’m devastated that my favorite place in Ogden got turned into another shitty basic Utah bar.

As an LGBTQ+ woman who had friends that used to work here, I will not support this bar anymore.

The only reason to go here is the food now that Bad Humor Meat & Cheese is there; however, the bar side of the house leaves much to be desired. The crowd was sketch, the drinks were meh, and the bartenders attitude wasn't exactly welcoming.

Wow… when this bar was the lighthouse it was such a great dive bar. Just the right amount of campy feel, bartenders that knew/liked what they were doing, cheap pitchers of beer, fried everything on the menu. A genuine dive bar. The change here ultimately is the price! There absolutely no pitchers of beer, no ice cold glasses, and even worse, PBR (not my drink of choice) is approximately 6-7$???? There’s pretty much no deals, on food or drink during the week. No events during the week.
Now, understandably, there has been struggle with the new owners due to gossip and the internet presence of the new owners taking on a life of its own… these things have nothing to do with the bartenders that have tried to help cultivate the atmosphere of the past. (Jill Dawson). But the food quality, change/reduction of the menu, and the PRICES, change my mind about this place entirely.
October 9th: $19.61
September 25th: $20.61
September 23rd: $27.73

And mind you, drink of choice is miller light… This has never changed. The receipts here is for 2 people, with a split bill! (Obviously we need to leave out the judgment over the consumption amount! :) )
I often wonder the reason for the jump is due to the “renovations”? Which I admit are nice… but the red light has ultimately suffered. Some of the regulars that I had come to know from the light house have disappeared. The times from previous days, heading in after work, on a wing Wednesday are long gone. The people and bar banter replaced by more T.V.s, and tables with a lot of empty chairs. Barren and a stark difference of the atmosphere of f the past.
Now, I understand that this had been a place of music and were artists gathered… I don’t know enough of that aspect to comment. But it truly benefits a place to be welcoming, and for the people. Things seemed to have changed.

Parking: Parking in front 25th street, and ample parking in back lot.

This place is awesome , amazing people, great managers, hated the last staff and how they did business but thank god for the new owners ! The band here last night was lit af and it made it so much fun to hang out here ! This place is my favorite place to go too once gain! Very sexy spot to visit on a weekday or weeknight, especially the weekends. Even on sundays it feels awesome , you can always count on a vibrant atmosphere with great music and delicious drinks and food ! Very well priced too! Highly recommend!

Well, I must say, clean and pleasant atmosphere. Food was excellent. I must recommend the reuben sandwich and also loved the chicken salad sandwich ...sides were excellent also. I watched the world series and football there and really enjoyed it. I'll certainly go back. Probably most impressed with the fresh food and cleanliness of the place... good set up with excellent space for small to medium groups.

Parking: Parking plentiful in the back parking lot behind the restaurant.

Worst bar service I’ve ever had. You “lost my order” and I had to find you for an update. Girl must have been new but if you’re going to have someone work a Saturday closing shift they better know what they are doing

We stopped in for some food and karaoke. The food was fantastic and they have gluten-free options!! The bartenders Ally and Papi Gee were on top of it, fun, and friendly. Kevin the karaoke DJ kept the songs flowing and everyone got to sing to their hearts desire!! We will definitely be back!!

Had to change from best bar in ogden to worst, plenty of reasons for it but for a few examples, the groups of folks that used to come and enjoy the live music and great atmosphere got ruined by liars that act friendly to your face and then send a text with the dirty work. Go support the great food down at City Club!
