Mostly 18-25 but fairly large amount of 30-50 men where also there and kinda watch the young women, kinda uncomfortable but other than that me and my friend had a great time, great service very nice and cute guy up at bar, just little expensive at the bar. Lots of white girl music played but some good music was mixed in(and some classic Katie parry(if that’s how you spell)) ENTRANCE PRICE ONLY $10
