  Beer is cheap, but comes in plastic mugs. No real signature drink or cocktail. Bar food is typical, but incredibly overpriced for what you get. Bathrooms are clean. Plenty of HDTVs. They have a projector, but it just shines on the wall and is enlarged to much. Best night is Tuesday as there is a live trivia game for a decent amount of cash. It's a "private club" so smoking is allowed inside despite the smoking ordinance.

  This place has gone downhill. It's great for a few happy hour specials, but they can't keep waitresses and service is soooooo slow. Don't order any bar food either: it takes forever. I went here last night because this joint is weirdly on <a href="/redir?url=http%3A%2F%2Frestaurant.com&s=c5fe485af4df376130bee54f875814d79c4d7913e1258123b1206d2bdbf4873b" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://restaurant.com</a> and it took two hours. Waitresses are friendly but this place is crap.

  First of all, smoky as hell in here, BLAH!  Went here for a friends birthday Saturday night and it was packed.  Service was friendly, but WOW, my drink order was jacked up; I ordered a gin and soda, the waitress brought it to me, I looked at it, it was dark so I asked her what it is, she said gin and soda, I said, no, that is not clear.... oooooohhh you mean soda water, right? Hmm, yes soda water, not Coke (aka soda or pop).  And you're better off getting your drink at the bar; the time managing getting a drink at the table it very slow, took over 20 minutes to get a beer, that is if you're not a regular.
  
  They do have billiards, shuffleboard and one dart board. All the games are next to each other and you definitely cannot play darts if others are playing billiards and/or shuffleboard.  There is a small dance floor and karaoke.   There are plenty TV's to watch the game. They do have food, but we did not order any.

  If you are looking for an adequate sports bar, with adequate food, but super friendly waitstaff that is within the city limits of Forney than your search is over.
  
  The staff was the highlight of the visit. They were very friendly and seemed to actually enjoy their jobs. They were more than willing to strike up a conversation-even though I was not one of the regulars(this is a sports bar so you know there are regulars who are there ALL the time).There were not as many TVS as I would have expected- but I still think one would always have a decent vantage point. The decor is just what you would expect from a sports bar in Forney- nothing fancy but comfortable.
  
  The food was OK. Had a hamburger-average. Had a trio of fried foods- jalapeno poppers were ok, fried mushrooms were ok, the fried pickles were probably the best thing I tried. The batter on them had a bit of bite to it that really helped make these the standout of the meal. The beer selection is pretty pedestrian-but its not a beer snob kind of place.
  
  They do have karaoke and judging by the floor space reserved it must be pretty popular.
  
  This is not a place I would make a trek for but when in Forney and needing a quick beer or to catch a game it would be a fine place to stop.
