Black people stay away ! This was my second time visiting this bar. I was calm, ordering a drink, and minding my own business when a manager approached me and asked if I was recording. I clearly stated that I was not recording.

Despite this, I was asked to leave without any valid explanation. When I politely asked where I should stand while exiting, the manager stated it was “private property” and then proceeded to call the police.

The situation escalated unnecessarily, especially considering I was there with my child. The police gave conflicting information—at one point saying I was being detained, then later saying I was free to go. I was also told the manager gave two different names (first “Michael,” then “Nick”) which further added to the confusion and lack of professionalism.

There was no disruptive behavior, no recording, and no reason given for removal. The entire interaction felt targeted, intimidating, and discriminatory.

I’ve never experienced anything like this before. Customers—especially parents—should feel safe and respected, not singled out and escalated on without cause.

I would strongly encourage management to review their policies and how situations like this are handled, because this was deeply unsettling and unacceptable.

Update – Your response contains multiple inaccuracies that do not reflect what actually occurred.

There were no reports shared with me prior to being approached, no explanation given at the time, and no inappropriate behavior on my part. I was calmly ordering a drink and minding my business when I was asked if I was recording. I clearly stated that I was not recording.

I was then asked to leave without any stated cause. When I politely asked where I should stand while exiting, I was told the property was private and the police were called. At no point was I hostile or aggressive. The escalation occurred after I complied and attempted to leave calmly.

The presence of my child was not a reason for removal until after law enforcement was contacted, and it was later used to justify a decision that had already been made. Additionally, the manager identified himself by one name initially and a different name later, which contributed to confusion and lack of transparency.

The police themselves provided conflicting information about whether I was detained or free to leave, further demonstrating how unnecessary and poorly handled this situation was.

My review reflects my direct experience. I stand by it. Calling the police on a calm customer without explanation, then reframing events afterward, is deeply concerning. Accountability requires accuracy, not narrative revision.

BLACK PEOPLE NOT WELCOME

I went with some co workers. It was pretty uncomfortable walking in with all of the staring. I definitely dont think its for black people. Just to be clear, not one person said anything rude or did anything. But they were definitely staring from the moment we opened the door. We ended up leaving after 1 drink and going to Mulligans. There is a better mix of people there and everyone had fun in the end.

Great spot for karaoke on Friday nights (8/830) and a good helping of the local singers and karaoke enthusiasts. If you’re new in town id stop here! Bar staff is friendly and attentive, a hard found quality in these parts.

Great place for entertainment karaoke. The DJ gets a little moody but other than that it was good. Intensity seems to be his best suit

I went here years ago and decided to give it another try. It was alright. The outside area was nice and I would go back in the summer and spend more time out there. They had a dj that was taking requests and seemed to play anything you wanted. Drinks weren’t unreasonably priced either. They had a food truck out back and it smelled really good, so I would also go back and try something.

I can’t believe they built a bar like behind the gas station but they made it work. Beer was cheap karaoke was good People were friendly. A nice outdoor bar in the back if you want to get away from the music.

Such a fun place on the weekends! Karaoke on Friday nights and usually live music on Saturday nights. Bartenders are dolls and hustle. You do not wait for your drinks cause they are not on their phones! There is a food truck there that has really good food with good variety. Awesome “dive bar” for sure!! Go see Hannah on Wednesday nights and shoot some pool while you’re there.

What a fun and welcoming joint, big outside patio for the smokers on game day (or night).. Plenty of draft and bottle beers to choose from, and the store next door had the most impressive craft beer selection I’ve seen in a while. The girls behind the bar are like family with the management (some of them are!) so they treat the place like it’s theirs… Very welcoming vibe from Char, Hannah, Kelley…all the girls really… And if you have a really well behaved dog, they can come say hi!

First time here and love the vibe here. Hard to tell there is a bar here since it looks like a gas station (which it is too).
