Bullwinkle's Saloon

I was recently at bullwinkles and I was appalled by the service I received. My friends and I are not your typical obnoxious and non-tipping college students,but we were ignored for 20+ minutes while waiting to be served. the bartender told me,"I look at you and I don't see money. I'm going to go where I'm making money." Fair enough, but the guy has no idea what any of his customers are tipping him. He was clearly upset from not getting  tipped. He was extremely rude and only paid attention to the frat guys to my right. He finally made a drink for me (after 25 minutes) I thanked him and gave him kind advice,"if you were a little nicer i think you would make more tips." Quickly back fired and I was called a very degrading name. I do NOT suggest this bar to anyone that wants to be treated with respect.

I have never had a bad time at Bull's. The best night to go is Friday (for the drink specials and the crowd). The best thing about this place is that there's something for everyone. It's unpretentious, casual and unintimidating, especially if you don't usually go out.

The inside is a large dance floor, which gets really crowded and lively by 11 or 11:30. There are 3 bar areas inside, but usually a line. You then walk outside on a porch and go down stairs to the main outside part, where there is a live band on stage and more bars. This outside area is much more chill and you can dance if you want, or find a place to sit and talk with friends. Outside there is an upper porch/balcony with yet more bars and a huge screen where they're usually playing ESPN, plus lots of picnic tables and seating.

You can wear jeans (even shorts) or club dresses, it really doesn't matter here. You're guaranteed to run into someone you know and the music is always pretty good (the band and the DJ inside). The only downside is that a lot of people are smoking and you leave the place smelling of cigarettes. (Luckily it's pretty well ventilated, so if you have sensitivity to smoke you won't be coughing--you just can smell the stench.)There is a cop at the door and they are very strict about enforcing their 21+ policy.

Also, the later you're there, the increased likelihood someone will spill their drink on you, or knock your drink out of your hand. Do not wear nice shoes, as they will inevitably get something spilled on them by the end of the night!

If you like coming here more than once a month, get a Thirsty Moose Card! They are a great deal if this becomes your weekly hangout.

It's an okay place. I like to sit up at the top bar, outside and watch the big screen but it's not always on. I'm not much for big crowds, so don't take my review too seriously and this place is crowded.
