Reviews
I stopped in with nothing but good intentions. I came by to personally thank the owners for what they do for the local community and to offer free tickets to our upcoming festival as a gesture of appreciation. Right at the door, I was told that no management was available and that I should speak with the bartender instead. That’s where things went downhill fast.
The bartender didn’t just decline the conversation — she wouldn’t even let me finish a single sentence. I was immediately brushed off, spoken over, and literally waved away like I was an inconvenience rather than a potential supporter of the business. She turned her back on me mid-interaction and walked away without any explanation or professionalism whatsoever. It was genuinely shocking behavior for someone working in customer service, especially in a bar that relies on community relationships and word of mouth.
Whether I was offering free tickets, asking a question, or just stopping in as a regular customer, no one deserves to be treated that way. First impressions matter, and this one was awful. If this is how guests are handled, especially when they come in respectfully and with positive intentions, then there’s a serious issue. You really need a new bartender — someone without the attitude and with basic customer service skills — because that interaction alone guarantees I won’t be back, and I won’t be recommending this place to anyone.
The adult beverages were also below par, likely reflecting happy hour quality and pricing. On the upside, the entertainment was great, and the atmosphere was lively and friendly. There was no cover charge, and the crowd helped make the night enjoyable.
In short, the people and the music carried the evening, but the food and drinks fell short. A fun vibe, but overall below par — not sure it’s a place I’d rush back.
