Bar tender, Jeremy, was amazing! Great drinks and had a good pool table. If you're visiting town I would definitely recommend this place to get a good local vibe.

Great place with fantastic cocktails and hospitable staff and crew. Fun atmosphere & wonderful times for all walks of life. You are family when you're here. Non smoking.

Amazing energy, friendly staff, and very clean. The drinks are priced well and is cozy inside. Just hidden enough off the main strip where you feel away from crowds, but always lively!!!

Best drinks. Best prices. Best bartenders. What a "neighborhood bar" is meant to be. Do you know what a "Rosie pour" is?

Kristi is amazing! She remembers us and is always sociable (along with knowing our drinks)! Chill place to hang out after work! Gets busy in the evening!
