let me just get to the point, This place is a dump its real dirty inside there are chairs that are broken that they let there customers sit in, the tables are sticky along with the bar top. The woman's bathroom is disgusting. The day I was there it was not too busy the bartender that was working was busy texting on her phone or playing games, as time went on the bartender was no where to be found I wanted to order a drink and I walked back to where the pool table and sure enough she was back there kissing some guy with his hands between her legs. The bartender went on to say I will be right there, I walked out disgusted. This is a place for business I thought but I guess this is what they allow to go on in a place of business, which I have no desire to ever go back. It's just a dirty dump
Review Source:The Silver Spur. I used to live only a few blocks from this place so it was my go-to spot for a night (or afternoon) of cheap debauchery. Five years ago this place was incredible. On any given night you could find yourself in the back room playing pool and drinking shots with members of the notorious Vagos motorcycle club (just dont expect them to buy you a round), or end up in the parking lot smoking a spliff with the guy who worked security at your high school. One night I ducked out for a cig and found a rather sick looking middle-aged-mom-type swaying back and forth while sitting on the small rock wall by the back door. When I asked her if she was alright she promptly gave me the finger, told me to "get fucked' and then turned her head and projectile vomited over her shoulder onto the sidewalk. All this was set to a soundtrack of Donna Summer being belted out through the karaoke machine by a six foot, 240 pound black tranny complete with sequined gown and shoulder length blonde hair. But that was five years ago. That was before the internet jukebox. Before all the decent bartenders quit or were fired. Before they hired some tool who looks like an extra from "Roadhouse" to work security. I dont know what happened, but it just isnt the same. Any and every time I've gone in the past 3 years its just been...dull. The only thing I still like about the place is the cigarette machine. And I don't even smoke anymore. The only reason it gets 3 stars is because of all the good times I used to have there.
Review Source:The Spur is a cool dive bar that's usually hit or miss. Karaoke on Fri & Sat nights. The singers are definitely not pros like at some karaoke places so you won't feel intimidated. Make sure to bring plenty of cash since they don't take credit cards.
The crowd is very random but if you're in to people watching and just having a good time then I would recommend hitting up the Spur. It's a small place with limited seating so make sure to get there early
I think this place is a nice hole in the wall joint. I went on a whim one weekend. There was Karaoke, and everyone was having a lot of fun. The owner of the bar was there, and told me that it was his fathers bar for 20 years. He said they had Beer Pong competitions, and free pool on Mondays(I liked that). I did not like that there was no beer on tap. I was told it keeps the biker groups out. It seemed like a lot of regulars, and the weekends can get pretty crazy. All in all a fun little bar.
Review Source:It an old house turned into an old bar. Â The last (illegal) hold-out for smokers, it has since been closed temporarily for the same reason. Â When it re-opened, it's the same old bar, only fresher air ;) Â Too, bad. Â I was hoping for a big change.
Here's my opinion: Â The place is hole. Â But I like most holes--they usually have some endearing quality. Â Like personality. Â Not this one. Â And NO beer on tap--WTF? Â It stays alive simply because its the only bar near here. Â Boo!
Come on someone, please open a decent bar in Quartz Hill and you'll make a fortune!
