the "Meh. I've experienced better" suggestion for a two star aptly describes how I feel about Hell's Half Acre: I've experienced better HERE-- at Hell's Half Acre-- in the past. What happened?
Decided to stop in after a concert in Tempe on my way home, thinking I'd be delving back into the sleazy, leather-clad rocker crowd I'd just left (after all, that's what I'd experienced in the past at HHA). Couldnt' be further from the truth.
Atmosphere:
-empty, except a couple douchey frat boy wannabe golf pros. I honestly don't know that there were any female patrons present except myself.
-rock music that used to permeate the building now sparsely scattered between country and pop videos.
Staff:
-bartenders scantily clad in their panties and tank tops, good for you. I guess that's why men come here. But why no female bar-goers? Â Can a lady get a hot male bartender (or at least barback) to ogle? Can you put him in his tighty whiteys?
-bartenders seemed generally disinterested and not just in me. They were also unaware of the specials that were promoted out on the sandwich board otuside ($4 well vodka).
Price:
-had they stuck to what was advertised, I would have been happy with their prices. Unfortunately, I got charged more for what was supposedly on special.
What the hell happened to Hell's Half Acre? It can't be called Hell's Half Acre if its no more lewd that an ASU frat house on a Tuesday afternoon.
