The Burnt Pickle is not just a bar—it’s an experience, a vibe, and possibly a test of character.
From the moment you approach the front door, you’re met by Jeff: manager, security, guardian of the entrance, and the undisputed Final Boss. Jeff doesn’t simply “work the door.” He protects it. He surveys. He evaluates. He decides if your energy is aligned with the chaos within. Think less bouncer, more ancient gatekeeper with a sixth sense for nonsense. If Jeff lets you in, congratulations—you’ve been chosen.
Once inside, everything clicks. The place has a perfectly dialed-in atmosphere: intimate, lively, and just unhinged enough to keep things interesting. It’s the kind of bar where conversations instantly turn funnier, confidence mysteriously increases, and time becomes more of a suggestion than a rule.
The drinks are the real stars here. Creative without being pretentious, strong without being reckless, and dangerously smooth. Every cocktail feels intentional, like it was crafted by someone who understands balance, flavor, and the responsibility that comes with serving something that tastes that good. These are “one more won’t hurt” drinks—spoken by people who know better.
The staff is top-tier: friendly, fast, and effortlessly cool. No forced smiles, no attitude—just people who know what they’re doing and do it well. The whole place runs smoothly, and somehow Jeff is always nearby, silently making sure the vibes remain elite.
In short: excellent drinks, flawless atmosphere, and legendary front-door lore. The Burnt Pickle is the kind of place you don’t just visit once—you end up telling stories about it later.

Absolute blast on Wednesdays! $5 cover for the DJ that runs the karaoke. Reasonably priced drinks and exceptionally busy on these nights. Lots of nice people!

I actually had a gig there, that’s why I was there. It’s a very nice place, with great service and great food. The stage was plenty big, but of course (Moonshine Jasmine) were only playing acoustic that night. All in all it was very nice, and hopefully we get a chance to play there again full electric with drums.

Great little venue for shows!!
Amazing Master Puff show!!
A cozy little bar with a nice selection of draft beers, wine, and cocktails. They have moonshine, wide variety of wine, and beer carryout.
The barmaid was both beautiful and friendly. The Manger Jeff is very personable and does good business.
We will definitely be back for future shows!!

I had a wonderful time at this bar! The karaoke and trivia nights are very cool. The customer service was great. Additionally, the bar is friendly towards Veterans, which means a lot to those that have served or have family or friends that have served. Keep up the good work!

The 1st and 3rd Friday night of each month, they hold a wine tasting. Each time it has been four wines paired with food. It has been an excellent learning experience for us. They have a wide selection of wines and the wines featured in the wine tasting are normally available to buy after.

Update: Recently, a new manager came to Campus Wine Cellar and there are now daily specials starting at 7pm each night, different events, such as a monthly painting night, and a very friendly staff. I recently added a photo of the specials if anyone is interested.

Awesome laid back atmosphere, great selection, and the staff are the best. Highly recommend checking out their wine tastings. It’s a great value for the chance to try 4 new wines with various food pairings. The staff that is in charge of this definitely knows how to run an event.
