The dj was unbelievably rude and even started yelling in front of other guests. There was a small misunderstanding, and we tried to apologize and explain the situation — like normal people who use words to communicate! Instead, the DJ chose to get absolutely angry and shout at us publicly. This happened right after we had paid for all our drinks and were simply trying to have a good time celebrating our friend’s birthday. Absolutely terrible experience 😔 Just imagine what has to happen for the DJ to call you “low class.” P.S. we are really sorry for misunderstanding, Ryan. we thought that DJ was bar owner, cause he said “GET OUT FROM MY BAR”

I absolutely love coming here. Bartenders are always very welcoming and the owner takes time to stop by my table and say hello every single time. You don’t just have fun at this bar, you eat good and make great memories with friends. I will continue to comeback and spred the word….people should be coming here!

Rude, dismissive, and unprofessional. That sums up the staff here. Avoid this place if you don’t want your night spoiled.

Absolutely awful experience. The staff was shockingly rude from the moment we walked in. No greeting, no smile — just attitude. When we politely asked a simple question about our order, the waiter rolled his eyes and walked away mid-conversation. Later, another employee snapped at us for asking for extra napkins, as if we were bothering them.

It’s honestly unbelievable how disrespectful they were to paying customers. The whole atmosphere felt tense and unwelcoming, and it completely ruined what was supposed to be a nice dinner. I’ve worked in hospitality before — there’s no excuse for that kind of behavior.

Save yourself the frustration and go somewhere that actually values its guests.

Bar tenders will add a drink to your tab without knowing, then the owner will call you low class for not being able to pay for it.

Overall: unprofessional owner and shady staff.

Summary: there are better bars nearby.

Cheap good bar food and drinks with a wide variety of taps, with lots of good Rock music for millenials.
