DA's Bar

I'd long been curious about this bar, a cinder-block fortress in the middle of a sea of gravel.   I'd tried to visit once before, on a Saturday morning, after first calling to confirm the hours.   I arrived half an hour after the opening time I was told and it was not open.

I finally got another chance to visit recently.    The parking lot was full and my car was the only vehicle that was not a pickup truck.

The inside is pretty much as stark as the outside is.  I was hoping a place in business this long would have more character, but I guess there's not a lot you can do with concrete.    The interior is painted a medium slate gray.

As one would expect in a place like this, there's pool tables and a small dance floor.

The crowd was rough and rowdy but not in a bad way (at least not yet).   We were clearly outsiders and were largely ignored.   The bartender was ok, but disappeared for a while to hang out with her regulars at one of the tables.

The place isn't bad for what it is, but I was hoping for something more interesting.
