Very nice place to chill. Bartender was very nice and never had to wait on anything. We had some very good mozzarella sticks. Very nice evening.

Guinness on tap! Drink specials (even on weekend). Blanton's and Eagle Rare bourbon 21 and 15 neat, respectively... fair enough prices on fancy bourbon. Pretty bar and lots of pool tables. Nice and cool inside. Happy to have a pint b4 show at the Vogue!

This bar hits many sweet spots: spacious yet cozy; multiple seating options (bar, table, high top, booth, booth corners); stage and dance; open window bar seats; and three pool tables. Best part, free pool during the week.

I went alone and sat at the bar. Amazing staff. Everybody was extremely friendly and made efforts to connect. They have all football games and made sure that everyone had the game they were interested in. I highly recommend this place.

Good atmosphere with great food and drinks. Lots of TVs so you can watch the game. Everyone gets into it. The service is great too, they keep the food and drinks flowing. Definitely recommend if you're in the area.
