Paul's

We came here to celebrate a birthday.  I've been to the District Lounge right next door plenty of times, but never found Pauls interesting enough to walk in.  Anyway, since this is where the birthday girl wanted to celebrate, I had no choice.  As soon as I walked in, the place had an awful smell... piss, beer, barf, all at once.  It gets pretty crowded in there, and expect to get yelled at every two seconds by the bouncer for standing in the 'walkway'... where else are you supposed to go?!? There is literally nowhere to sit or hang out.  The patio was just as crowded, so don't go out there to catch a breather, unless you want lung cancer.

I came by here to meet a friend to discuss biz.  Paul's is real bar located just off DT Orange on Chapman.  By real bar, I mean it opens at 6 am, doesn't serve food and there is a bright PBR (Pabst Blue Ribbon) outside.

I ordered a Stell-A to say word to someone special who's name ends in A, and put a smile on her fay - LOL!!!.  The beer was ice cold and refreshing.  The bartender here didn't short pour me like the bartender at Linx earlier across the street.  The bartender at Linx's response when I called her out on the short pour:  It is a 12 oz pour in a 14 oz glass.  WTF?!?!?!  Do I look like I just fell off a pineapple truck?!?!?!

The clientele was chill and the beer was inexpensive ($4 vs most places at $6).   The ambiance isn't much, but there is a pool table and juke box.  I think next time I'll drink at Paul's and eat at Linx later.  Then I will come back and drink at Paul's again -  LOL!!!

BTW, one of the female clients mentioned a Kendrick Lamar song and I knew the words.  I started singing the opening lines, and she even played it on the jukebox later.  The lyrics were perfect for my experience earlier in the evening:

I am a sinner
Who's probably gonna sin again
Lord forgive me
Lord forgive me
Things I don't understand
Sometimes I need to be alone
B*tch don't kill my vibe
B*tch don't kill my vibe

LMAO!!!

Ewww.

I came here on a Thurs night to play pool since the brew is cheap. Never again will I make that mistake. The bartender gave me the wrong change back. I would've tipped her but the fact that she kept $10 extra after I ordered a pitcher pissed me off. I spoke with the security since I guess their the temp managers there but he wouldn't let her count her drawer for $10. LOUSY SERVICE. It's the principle of it ppl!

I recommend OHara's or The District nxt door to Paul's.
