This was a heck of fun place. Vibrant and happening, with a down-to-earth and friendly staff and management. A great place to hang out, play pool, or just relax. And the specials and prices are out of this world. Great place for an affordable night out with friends.

Ex wifes has been a classic for a very long time, not everyone’s vibe but my friends and I have always enjoyed the pool and the drinks. The lady bouncer(Jamie I believe) is always a grump but never has been an issue before. Maybe she’s the x wife? Super unwelcoming all together, but her demeanor is beside the point. Tonight, a friend of ours (22F) was denied entry. In Jamie’s defense, she stands 4’11’’ but still presented a valid drivers license. One can understand Jamie’s skepticism, sure, but a valid id is a valid id all the same. I get businesses have the right to choose who they serve, but one could only assume she was denied entry on account of her height. As good friends would, we decided to not bring our business there due to Jamie’s obtuseness. While we were standing outside deciding where we would go instead, I recognized 2 other friends we went to school with who were not of age be allowed in. A shame the thoroughness was present to my friend who brought her VALID id and was rudely turned away because she just didn’t “trust it” despite it scanning, but was absent to the minors who got in with no problem. Many such cases though IYKYK. Lost some loyalty tonight over what seemed to be a power trip.
Edit: her 22nd is in 4 days, I stand corrected. Though last time I checked 21 is still of age. Additionally, there is no slander on Jamie, just an honest review in my many experiences in coming to your bar. She is consistently a cold person, I’m just letting future potential customers know what to expect. You say “McKenna is 21 not 22” so help me understand why she was denied entry🤔 Also, her ID did scan, we all saw it scan, don’t try and gaslight others, Jamie flat out said she just didn’t trust it. Additionally, it’s not my job to scan id’s not secure an establishment that is 21+. Don’t make me laugh.

Discriminatory towards disabled people. I’ve visited this location on a few occasions and expressed my situation (ARSACS; a balance issue that may cause others to see me as “drunk” despite having no alcohol in my system) and was met with complete lack of empathy and respect. I’ve informed the staff on many occasion of my condition & Jamie has shown zero respect for my disability. I have witnessed her treat other people with no respect (smacking drinks out of their hands). Additionally, I am aware of frequent underage kids being allowed in to the bar. This establishment is concerning on many levels and lacks morals across the board. It is disturbing that they remain in business despite these failures.

This place is the exact definition of a dive bar and exactly what we wanted, great drinks, pool tables, music. The place is perfect, it was my first time going to a bar and my besties 21st and we both absolutely loved it. Todd is amazing! All the reviews made me nervous but the dude rocks! Will definitely be going back! 20$ a round with 3 drinks, and 5 bucks for 6 games of pool, can't really beat that(:

I’m 22 years old, gave the dumb lady at the door with a mask my real Michigan ID, she denied me with that one, then gave her my vertical real expired ID, also denied me but then proceeded to give them back to me. Didn’t realize a bar could give back alleged fake IDs.

Honestly place is great but we had an experience with a bartender complaining about a tip when we tipped well over 20%. Was todd, would recommend not tipping him him. Besides that, great place.

X wives. It’s a great place and I highly recommend it especially if you’re looking for a “Dive bar” has 5 pool tables plus a nice bar/dining area. I mean this place is goated in my opinion they’ve been in business for over 50+ years? There has to be something they’re doing right. For me it’s their customer service, the bartender with glasses and a nice stache is super honest and friendly, best part of their service is honesty and clarity. I recommend this place a whole lot! Love this place.
Based on the findings from extensive, dare I say exhaustive, research - the findings are conclusive. This is the best bar that ever was or will be.

It's a dive bar. Full of college kids. The bar smells like vomit, I don't know why, but it always does. Cheap drinks, pool, dainty, booth seats torn up and no one cares--its a dive bar. What you get is what you pay. Not a bad spot. Younger crowd definitely. It's okay.
