Garland Drinkery

Only been here once so maybe I am way off about what it's normally like but on our one visit this is what we found.

Very small bar that has a bunch of regulars +1
It's very small inside and got uncomfortably hot -1
Tthe service was fine but could be slow when they were busy (that's acceptable.) 0/0
Drinks were average in strength and the price was reasonable. 0/0
In the end though I would be remiss if I didn't mention the hotties - absolutely none, think typical Spokompton girl who doesn't have time to work out because she is too busy keeping the tattoo artist, piercer and roll your own shop in business. - 1

So we walk in with a neutral opinion (3 stars) and it ends up with 2 Stars because some of the visuals we saw were hurtful to the eye.

NOTE: To all the good looking Spokane women that go here - you just weren't there on the night we were, sorry but I have to call it like I see it, if next time you are there I will change my review.

Small draft selection.  Other than domestic, they do have micro's.  
The night I went, the bartender didn't know how to make an Old Fashioned (bourbon, bitters, sugar, cherry, orange zest), but he made up for it by adding more whiskey :)  Great patio.
I will probably never drink inside.
Slow service, I had to wait 12+ min for a beer, and the line was 5 people deep (Wednesday evening).

I've been here three times, and every experience has been bad.

The first time, a bunch of hot rodders were there gunning their engines loudly in the parking lot. Then they began drag racing on Garland. Very noisy and wild.

The second time, it took much too long to get drinks. I was there over an hour and managed to get two beers.

The third time, I waited in line (behind only two people) long enough to see two commercial breaks on ABC Family (which was playing on the TV). Then, I ordered a Coors Light (which is the only domestic they have on tap--no biggie) and he gave me a bottle of Coors Light. Didn't ask if I wanted a bottle. Just gave me one. Heck, even the surly bartender at Mootsy's asks me if I want bottle or draft. Then, a Garland pub crawl stopped by and a drunk woman kept shrieking in my ear.

Now, I know I'm getting nitpicky, but I hoped to have ONE positive experience there. Hasn't happened yet. The crowd when I have been there has been crazy loud, and the staff has been slow and unfriendly.

On the plus side, it does have a dartboard and skee-ball.
