There is a reason why that bar is always empty. The staff was rude from the start and gave us attitude for not knowing the rules of their bar. We asked them why they had to be rude to us, and told us to leave right away and became aggressive towards us. They also did not give us the cover fee back. I bet they make you pay the entrance fee and then decide to kick you out. That’s how the bar is generating money because it’s definitely not because they have a full bar. They just decide to complain and pick a fight with the few clients that they do receive. Never going back there again.

(Since I can’t reply directly to the comment.)
The purpose of this review is not to recover a $5 cover fee, it is to speak up about the discriminatory and unsafe treatment my friend experienced, which I will not ignore.
Your statement that we were refunded is incorrect. You do not provide receipts, and the cover charge must be paid in cash, which allows you to claim refunds that never occurred. Yes, I received my change from the $20 bill I gave; however, I did not receive my cover fee back. I left immediately because your bouncer became aggressive toward my friend, and I feared the situation could escalate. I grabbed my belongings and exited because I did not feel safe remaining inside after witnessing that behavior.
We were not intoxicated, as you claimed in another reply (the image is attached below for reference). We were civilized and respectful the entire time. We were unable to purchase a single beer that night. We are graduate students who had been doing homework for several hours beforehand and simply wanted one drink to relax. We can provide timestamped evidence of our work if needed.
If you are confident in your version of events, I formally request that you review your security camera footage from that night. The footage will show exactly how your staff interacted with us and how the situation escalated.
This review reflects our real experience and concern about how customers are treated. No one should feel targeted, intimidated, or unsafe in an establishment.

Run as fast as you can! Got kicked out almost immediately after walking in because I misunderstood what the bouncer said, I heard him say he would bring the change, but we came back as soon as we got a table (less than 30s) he got pissed and became aggressive, kicked me out and just took my money. These are petty people trying to make money by people walking in and getting kicked out.

Nobody was drunk, we had spent the 5 hours studying at a public location before going to the bar to wind down, which we choose because it was empty. I was given my change back. Not the money for the service I have never received. The friend that left scared also did not get the money, because she got terrified of the bouncer, and was too scared to ask for the money back.

Have been twice, order was messed up both times. Originally asked if they had barbecue sauce and was provided with mango habenero sauce. The second time I came, I ordered the hot honey wings, and was given sweet chili wings. The food is horrendus, and the atmosphere is whack. The tables were dirty and unkempt. They lack napkins and have to use paper towels. The TVs all show the same programs and are broadcasted off a computer. This is an okay place to party, but a terrible place to eat and do anything else. I do not recommend. Also, their chicken wings are all bread and no meat. Do not recommend anything here. Their chicken sandwiches are frozen and served partially cold.

Visited with a few friends since everything else was closed and oh boy that was not a good idea. Staff is not friendly, almost feels like they don’t want you there. Additionally, they messed up our order more than once. Would “NOT” recommend to anyone trying to decompress.

They occasionally have some great deals on drinks, but it is almost always completely dead. We stopped here once during a buddy’s 21st on $1 PBR night, and we were the only ones there. I’ve never had a problem with their staff, however.

Food is alright, entry was an absolute mood killer though.
Came in a group and one buddy caught heat with security for no reason.

They kept a hold of my credit card and would not give it back. The bouncer wqs extremley disrespectful and not a nice person at all. Im not sure why anyone would ever employ people like these. He was about 40 and brown hair. Im not sure why all of these places are so ok with fake ids.
