Growlers

Not bad of a place. They still smoke here so that kinda sucks.

Good selection of beers.

I don't come here very often per se but, when I do it's usually a good time.

Here's the skinny:
The bouncer types do enforce the rules (nicely).
Drinks are good and are fairly priced for the local area.
Pretty clean bar area and tables another plus is clean bathrooms.
Dance floor is small but, it's a BAR with dancing NOT, a DANCE CLUB with a bar.

Here's the fat:

They card here, I made the mistake of walking past and going straight to the bar, get this the guy said "Excuse me, can I see some ID". "Excuse me"??? really, not a shoulder grab "Hey man! blah..." but, "Excuse me" not bad. Add to that, when it's time to kick people out, they do it... nicely for the most part. I'm sure they can be asses if they needed to be but, it seems that most of the locals know that it's time to go and leave it at that. The few stragglers that are slow to giddy up are given that extra minute then told to GTFO.

Drinks are average price for NWI, mixed drinks are ok too but, definitely nothing to write home about. They do make 'em strong though, some think it's a good thing others (like myself) just want it to taste right. Hence deduction - it's hit or miss on the Mixed Drinks here. Beers are a safe bet and they do carry a decent selection too.

Even on busy nights like Thursday, Friday, Saturday the place is kept pretty clean. I see employees taking out garbage and clearing tables full of beer bottles and mopping up if needed on the regular. The men's bathroom is surprisingly clean for a bar... I'm actually not worried about turning the water off after washing my hands. lol.

The dance area isn't huge but, it's a bar... you go to a bar to drink and hang ot with friends, if it so happens that dancing might get involved, so be it. They have a small dance area toward the front...

Growlers is a good place to have a good time, nothing too too special though.

Have a fun night here visiting friends. The bar is really big and there was great selection of beers at a really reasonable price.

On issue though: the smoke in there was really bad. When the front door opened, I could see it coming out from the bar and after a couple of weeks it was still lingering on my coat. They need some ventilation.
