What the hell is going on at Mom’s basement? : r/Birmingham – Reddit

The people who hate on Moms are more than likely people who think anything other than Back 40’s Sunday crowd is a rough crowd.

Had a gr8 thyme at mom’s bae-s-mint tonight. We were on the patty-o the whole
Time. Only 1 person in the bathroom at a time! Probably a good policy. Gr8 vibe. We have 5 people here: Bon, Bon, on, cheese, and Mr stinky. Good crew. Had fun! Will be back tomorrow! See u then. Thanks. Horrible

My hands down favorite dive! If ya haven’t been to Moms, you should visit! Service is great, atmosphere is relaxed and retro. Imagine a typical suburban basement with a bar & that’s Mom’s! Walls filled with pics of … Moms! What Else?! Ha! It’s very nostalgic for kids of the 70s & 80s or fans thereof.

If you are from another state (especially one not in the south), you might want to avoid this place. THEY DO NOT HAVE AN ID SCANNER! The manager (blonde lady) kept saying my ID made her uncomfortable (after already being there for about an hour) even though it is a VERIFIED REAL MARYLAND ID.. like if the airport can take my ID, I am sure this small bar in alabama can take it.. but also, my friends said that there were racist undertones behind the manager’s actions.. she seemed okay, but if the people around me saw it, I think it is important to mention. She gave me a refund for my cover, so that was nice! The bouncers were really nice, though! Joe and Dave were awesome and very kind after the manager kicked us out. They gave us some recommendations for some other bars that have ID scanners and can actually verify REAL ID’s! Anyways, if you’re from another state, maybe avoid this place. I am sure that their local experience is nice, though.

Super cool atmosphere but the “security” and bar tender need to chill out a little bit. These guys are always in your business and threatening. Kind of ruins the vibe. Bathroom situation is terrible and the staff will yell at you for knocking or walking out of there thinking you weren’t alone. Super cool place but the staff is ruining the vibe there lately. When asked , they said they have to keep the “hooligans” under control. Our party of mostly 30+ was a little offended and asked if we were being hooligans and they said no, but still treated us with this awful power trip. Better ways to handle it. Don’t let the staff ruin this place, because it is a great spot. It was almost as if the staffs guard was up and on the look out for something. Regardless, you can maintain professionalism and manage your facility still.

Oh and $5 cover because there is a DJ? He played old school vinyl for 45 minutes and then played music through a phone.

Again, don’t let this place slip from the stupid little things.

Very trendy hipster type setting. But it’s a vibe and the bartenders are great.

This place is COOL! Was pleasantly impressed after arriving the theme is very well and tastefully delivered, not over done or kitchsy. Fun “basement door” entrance into the bar and you arrive straight at the bar where the car menus are in trapper keepers! Lots of arcade style games (pinball, pool, darts) and board games for that nostalgia fun. Plenty of space to hang with a big group and a fun place to hang during the day as well as evening. Will definitely come back next trip to Birmingham!

Had a wonderful time discovering Mom’s basement ! Great staff and yummy frozen drinks… not to mention the concept of honoring ” Mom’s ” ! The decor takes you back to the 70’s …a real flashback !

Doorguy was cool. Bartenders were friendly and attentive. It was a very laid back vibe. primary people ages 25-35. Karaoke line had like 20 people wait.. but they’d play full non karaoke songs in between singers.. like..whyyy…lol. didn’t eat there but .I gave the “food” 2 stars because the only vodka they had was titos and cathead. They had run out of Grey goose and didn’t carry ketel one. And they didn’t carry Heineken or corona. The place has potential..cute idea.. but we bailed bc the alcohol selection and bc the pool tables and and other forms to pass time we’re always occupied. This was on a Thursday.

Initially when I first came here, this place wasn’t my vibe. But I was coming at midnight on Fridays and Saturdays and getting the College Crowd, which just hasn’t ever been my thing. Every other time, however, has been exactly what I needed. The happy hour rates are excellent, the service is immaculate, and the general vibe is just so comforting. It’s truly starting to become my home away from home, and I truly have no complaints.

Whitney is absolutely my favorite bartender, with Ben in at a close second. All of the owners have shown nothing but kindness to everyone who comes through the door, and the vast majority of the regulars are friendly, down-to-earth people. It’s really not hard to make a new friend here.

I truly, 100% recommend coming to Mom’s Basement for the weeknight crowd. A truly pleasurable experience!
