The Sofo Tap

I never been inside this bar, but I live nearby, and I tell you this:

These people have no respect or concern whatsoever for the neighbors, concerning noise levels. They have the rowdiest crowds/groups out on the beer garden during the day & night on the weekends and weeknights as well. They have karaoke on Sunday nights or other 'events' that easily go past 11pm. Weekend nights I can understand some noise, but Sunday nights past 11pm? Your neighbors need a break, most of us have to work early on Monday.

It's 5pm now on a Saturday, and people are on the patio, literally, screaming in unison because they're part of some group or another.

I've emailed the owner- he responds and says that he cares about the noise levels and his neighbors, yet not much has changed. Every weekend, every weeknight in the summer- noise. Waking up to loud drunks leaving the bar late at night. Anyway, I have a choice here: I can get together a bunch of neighbors (who are irritated as well), and we organize and get this place quiet (doubtful) or shut down, or I move. I really like my apartment, so I'll choose the former.

I wish this place was better, as it's in my neighborhood.  Sadly, the service is not very good. Also: these guys don't seem to care about the neighborhood, in that they are out on the patio yelling all day and into the night, without regard for those of us that actually live nearby.  Rude and not neighbor friendly. I liked the "old" SOFO better.

What a waste of time.  I have never seen a bar host a theme night or event and have so little bar staff.  There were only 2 bartenders and a bar-back for a packed house.  Getting a drink the first time took no less than 10 minutes.  I went back up again to get another drink and gave up after waiting 10 min and having no movement in the line.  The beer selection sucks, the staff is slow and discourteous and there were far too many people in the place to be even remotely safe.  I honestly was tempted to call the Fire Department to determine if the crowd in fact violated fire code.  This was my first time there and will also be my last time there!
