I visited Good Bar for the first time and had a deeply unpleasant experience with a bartender named Chase. When I arrived, I stood at the bar with a menu in hand, waiting to order. There were only two people being helped, so I waited patiently, tried to make eye contact, and expected to be greeted next.
Instead, after finishing with those two guests, Chase ignored me completely and assisted someone who had just walked up after me. No acknowledgment, no simple “we’ll be with you in a moment,” nothing. When I walked over to where that other guest was being helped and mentioned that I had been standing there waiting, Chase responded rudely: “The lines over here, you’re in the wrong spot.”
I explained this was my first time at the bar and I wasn’t aware of where to stand, especially since no one had acknowledged me or given any kind of direction. Rather than taking a moment to explain with kindness, Chase continued to speak over me, dismissing my concerns and prioritizing proving his point over providing decent customer service while i tried to place my order.
It wasn’t busy. There was no reason he couldn’t have simply said, “Hey, the line starts over here.” Instead, he chose to ignore and belittle me, an awful way to treat any customer, especially a first-time guest.
What saved the night was Pete. After Chase messed up my order (I asked for ranch, which apparently they don’t have but Chase was so busy talking over me that said ok to ranch), I returned to the bar and Pete helped me instead. He was kind, patient, and brought dressing and napkins to my table with a smile. He treated me with basic respect and turned what was a terrible experience into something a bit more bearable.
Shout out to Pete for being the one bright spot in an otherwise very disappointing visit. Chase, on the other hand, left me feeling disrespected, dismissed, and completely unwelcome. If he’s a reflection of the customer service standard at Good Bar, that’s unfortunate, and it’s enough to make me not want to return.

Typically this place is outstanding. Maybe they over-ordered vegetables... Tonight I was served soft/floppy vegetables with my hummus plate. I have been a restaurant manager and a cook in my past. Typically produce on the verge of expiring goes in a special fire sale hot dish, not on a plate where the customer would expect fresh crisp veggies, especially for their prices.
Please work on this!

The -I’ll Stop Later had us stopping in for the second time this month. We happened to meet the creator of the drink Pete, who was nice enough to shake me up his own concoction that was equally amazing! Classic films playing in the background with high class drinks! Yes please!

We wandered in after closing while the manager, Chase was on a smoke break and he was gracious enough to take care of us and let us get a round. This was no small ask because we were a group of 6 in varying stages of drunkenness and we weren't made to feel rushed or like a burden. Thank you Chase and Jose for let us hang out with y'all it was definitely the perfect ending to out night.

Came here on a Monday night for a quick drink and stayed for a few rounds because the drinks were just that damn good. Highly recommend, best espresso martini I've ever had! Most of the cocktails are staff creations, and they are phenomenal concoctions. They were even able to ensure the espresso martini was dairy free.

Fun casual bar. Ordered a bunch of pizza and wings. Sweet chili wings was yummy and would order again. A wide selection of beer to choose. I can't remember the name of the beer but 18 was the selection on the menu. The indoor golf was fun and first time enjoying and was quite a challenge.

Being busy is never an excuse for rudeness. While the bar is conveniently located, the atmosphere felt unwelcoming, and the staff bordered on impolite. Do yourself a favor and skip the mediocre experience, there are better spots nearby.
Great Bartender!
Have been a few times, most recently after a concert at Lumen field. Pete has taken excellent care of us everytime (do y’all ever give him days off? JK). He brings a fun vibe to the bar, and gave excellent suggestions. The bar itself is not stuck up, but still has quality spirits. I also like the way the restaurant is decorated (doesn’t feel like a typical sports bar).
A must visit, my experience was fabulous, the bar tenders are outstanding ,
Decided to pop in for a drink and dinner to go. The atmosphere was fantastic. The bartender (Chase) was very friendly. Food was stellar as well.
