Bar was awesome at first! The girls working the bar were great and provided excellent service. Cheap beer too which of course is all that matters to many of us. It all went downhill though at closing time. Everyone was escorted out immediatly and it seemed like no one was allowed to use the bathroom. The owner was basically sitting by the door as people were being escorted out by "security" pretty much saying "I own this place now get the f*@& out" as people were herded out into the cold by the completely unprofessional bouncers. I get that bars have closing times, but to completely disrespect your patrons who have spent a good amount of money throughout the night right at closing time makes for a really bad after taste. Would NOT recommend this place for airline peeps or anyone else until management can learn to treat their clientele with the same respect their bartenders seem to.
Review Source:If you want to black out, puke, hit on ugly chicks, or have a generally debaucherous evening in Syracuse I highly recommend this establishment.
They have cheap drinks, a shot wheel, pool tables, free popcorn, filthy bathrooms, awesome bartenders, and less douchebaggery than other Armory Square bars.
I'd probably recommend skipping happy hour, or showing up too early on in general. You'll usually just find lecherous old creepy dudes hitting on the bartenders and getting sloshed out of their minds. However, if you find that sort of thing entertaining to watch, you might want to show up. The crowd usually switches at about 10 to the young'uns who want to get down, dirty, and drunk.
Did I mention there's $1 drinks on Thursday nights? Come on, you know you wanted to make some bad decisions.
