  I love this bar! the atmosphere is great, I can smoke inside and they have a great staff! avoid cleo's on fridays and saturdays unless you enjoy djs with poor selections of music that they seem to have pulled straight off a local radio station. aside from that, this is a must if you enjoy dive/cigar bars. and I would recommend going more than once, make it your "cheers" and you will not be disappointed! free pool on wednesdays and dougie and christa are awesome. plus on the right days you can catch me at free book signings all night. bring a book, any book and I'll sign it!

  Used to be a fun bar.  Now you have to fight your way through the pot smoke outside to get to the cigarette smoke inside. Too many wannabe gangsters ruining this place.

  I have gone to Cleopatra's a few times to play pool and am not very likely to go back.  The tables are beat up, the staff doesn't much care about the little things when I asked about a new piece of chalk - I couldn't really tell if she had even heard me.  The beer took a while to come, and ordering another took a regular to get the attention of the bartender.  I do like that I can smoke and drink beer and be inside.

  If you own: a trucker hat, mullet, or an Adidas stripe in your hair, then WELCOME.  
  
  Overall, an excellent dive.  If you show up in more than jeans and a three day beard, you're out of your element.  Good place to play free pool on Wednesdays and listen to an assortment of Metallica and Hip-Hop, with the occasional silence as the juke box is reloaded.  
  
  Good cheap drinks, blue collar patrons, and the affluent group of pool sharks carrying their **very own** hand crafted cues.  
  
  If you want to get BOMBED for $10- go to Cleo's.  Just remember- the dirtier the jeans, the better your stay.  Just watch out for the men dressed as Ziggy Stardust and ZZ Top. They'll either hit on you or shred your face off.  Either way- a must if you're up for a cheep brew.

  The owner, Sam, is a crazy Eqyptian guy who plays piano and ping-pong.  He can normally be found hanging out at the bar, which always makes it a fun night because he's quite the character.
  
  This is a cigar bar, so be prepared for lots of smoke.  The prices are reasonable and they are generous with the pours.  Don't expect anyone to suggest a cab though so be aware of your tolerance and try to be responsible!
