It's is a good bar so far good people bar i come back to
I liked it. Had no issues. Drinks are super strong, reasonably priced. Music was great!
The bartenders are out of control. They do shots all night. They are drunk. Half of the drinks are being sold under the table. Very poor management....
My friend and I went in last week for a drink or two and it seemed okay. We ordered two whiskey cokes from the bar in the back and they tasted awful. Like bad diet coke. We tried to get through it but it was unacceptable. I asked for them to be remade and although the bartender was kind enough to remake the drinks, they still ended up tasting awful about halfway through. I don't know how you mess up a whiskey coke but we couldn't finish them and decided to leave. Except it was almost IMPOSSIBLE to get out. The bar filled up so quickly and it took forever to maneuver our way out. Toes were definitely stepped on. I don't know what the capacity rules are for the place but I would suggest that the bouncers ensure people can safely enter and exit the building. Disappointed with the entire experience and definitely wasted my money on drinks.
If I could give this place a negative zero, I definitely would. I am currently working in Chicago for 3 weeks, and my friend being gay, he really wanted us to be out and about in boystown. At some point in the night of March 19th we ended up at this bar. The place appeared to have been quiet over capacity, and it was very difficult to move around in there without difficulty. When someone stepped on my foot and I started bleeding, I wanted to quickly sit down on the wooden dance stage by the upper bar to just take off my shoe, because I was clearly in pain. Because I was not under the influence of alcohol, I was being extra cautious to not invade his space. Before I could even sit down I was so brutally pushed by the guy dancer, that it left me in shock. I finally was able to take off my shoe shortly thereafter and noticed that by the extremely violent push, more injury was added to my foot. Not only am I a female, and this dancer was a dude (gay or not) it is unacceptable to put your hands on anyone, let alone a female. Thankfully my friend was snapchatting at that moment and caught the horrible act on video. As soon as I get done with my busy work schedule, I will be adding this story to my well visited blog in addition to the video. If you have cameras in your establishment, you will be able to see what kind of maniac works in your establishment. SICK!!!!
Great brunch
