Checked out these place a couple times on Memorial day weekend through a friend who likes stopping in there. We had a few drinks there and played pool. The tables are pretty beat up but didn't hinder having fun. I'm pretty sure they were playing music off of someone's phone but didn't bother to ask as I listen to pretty much anything. Both nights the crowd was very thin but nobody was too awkward.
This isn't a place I would go if I were alone. If you have a group and you are fun people the drink prices are decent and the service was timed well. The staff is very friendly and had a smile on their face when serving so I like that.
I rate it two stars mostly because of the lack of people on a Friday and Saturday night. The place could use a little makeover. If my buddy wanted to stop in there again I would be fine with that but only because it is so close.
DID YOU KNOW THIS PLACE IS OVER 60 YEARS OLD?
We pretty much never go to this bar, even though it's not far from home. We came in on Sunday for the football game but there were no drink specials through the game and our two bottles of Bud Light totalled $7.50. Â They did have some food set up and the bartender was nice, but the TVs were set at odd volumes. And there was a delay between the sets, making it impossible to understand the voices being projected. Â This would be no way to watch an entire game.
This bar is a fun stop from time to time. The place is big. It's a long room and one side has lots of seating, while the other has pool tables. And there's a lot of open area in the middle.
I like that it's been around so long. The bartender this Sunday said he's been working there 41 years. Perhaps he's the manager, or current owner? He was friendly enough, but not overly welcoming. When I'm paying that much for a bottle of domestic beer, it'd be nice to get some conversation to go with it. Though, complementary peanuts were salty and fresh ~ and I liked that!
