I came here for a local band performance. Mechanical Sun! They rocked the house and the atmosphere was great. Not to crowded but definitely not empty. Drinks were reasonably priced and mixed fine (I say this because a previous post I read). $12.00 for 4 drinks (mixed, hard liquor). I would come back for another show with ease.
Review Source:I've been here a few times and I always say I'll never go back, first off the service, i waited 20 min to get waited on and i asked one of the regulars if the bartender was new and he said nah she's been around for a while, the drinks finally came and they were absolutely revolting! I kept ordering different drinks to see if it was just me but all of them were horrid, I asked my 2 friends I was with to try them and they spit them out in their water glasses I finally 3 drinks later opted for a beer since it required no preparation by the bartender. I made a remark about the poorly measured drinks and a gentleman leans over to me and says this bar isn't one u order drinks u just order beer. SEE EVEN THE REGULARS KNOW IT SUCKS!!
Review Source:Fun to drink here as long as it's not around the holidays or any other night when you'll run into the entire town of Ripon. If it's full of older women(30-40), then you better not be a young pretty girl because you'll get daggers all night. Had a woman tell security she 'knew' my friend just graduated high school and he wasn't doing his job... My friend is 22. The staff is always great but on busy nights expect to be shoved in a crowd and wait on drinks. Great dive bar if you're just looking to wet your whistle and play some pool on a weeknight.
