Great service, Deron and Val treated me with the kindest of respects. Had a few adult beverages with a cat named Vance, seems like a guy who knows a thing or two about a thing or two. Great people, great drinks, great times, top notch establishment I’d bring my mom to.
I bought a single shot of Malibu and one with sense would not tip for one single shot. However, the bartender to decided to pull some tricks that she had stored up her sleeves. Ms. trickster added a $5 tip. Her actions speak on why she shouldn’t have been tipped along with the low amount that I spent. This can’t be her first time with those sticky fingers.
LONG ISLAND! That’s it.
Good place to be on a Friday at 6:30
Bartenders are not friendly.... bad atmosphere
Absolute love the Library Bar even more after the amazing updates and reno! Incredible updates and much more prestigious atmosphere. Very impressed with the new changes. Everything is always clean, tidy, and on point. Tristan and his staff are Rockstars. Always friendly, inviting, and quick to help the guests. Nothing but positive vibes at the Library. And the new sound system is a dream. The music sounds crazy good! Always a great time at Library Bar La Crosse!

Really love the music, fast service, and the staff. Wednesday night mug club is a steal. Getting a rail drink for a dollar is awesome. Thursday night wristbands are really a great way to have a good time on a budget. Everything was clean and well kept and they had a great selection of drinks. Staff was incredible from the door to the bar. 10/10 would drink there again!

The manager Tristan Rolf’s will talk to multiple girls and then when things don’t work out he refuses to serve them and bans them from the bar for no reason at all. He is ruining the atmosphere of Library Bar every weekend, a lot of girls don’t want to go anymore because he will just flat out refuse to serve them and they will wait at the bar for half an hour until he get a different bartender to come and serve them.Also, pointing and laughing at your customers after refusing to serve them and pulling a different bartender from their area to serve them is honestly embarrassing and immature behavior of a bar MANAGER. Feel free to check the cameras on that one. not sure why you would want someone like that is representing your bar.Don’t worry about banning me from your bar because of this review, I won’t be coming back ?
