I love it!

Great prices. Well-made mixed drinks. Friendly and attentive staff. Ecclectic bunch on Friday Night. Mellow Saturday nights. Perfect place for us gals to meetup, visit and peoplewatch. Karoke on Fridays and can the boys sing!

Never a dull moment

You never know what to expect here, but it is friendly. Drinks are cheap and bartenders are friendly.

Hey Kevin!!

It's the only place I feel comfortable hanging out. Don't know many people there, but it's fun anyway. I always have fun giving the bartender crap.

Cramped, noisy, smoke filled air, some staff problems. atmosphere, like being an old garage of basement.

Nice bar needs to work on staff attitude.

Nice place could get staff a litle more energized. All on all a good place.
