NEVER buy a song at the juke box unless you're willing to pay like $5 a song to skip the line.

Light up the goddamn foosball table! It's the only legitimate reason for a soul to set foot in this place.

Don't come here. They yell at you when is time to leave. So disrespectful. We are paying guests. No need to yell at people to get out.... Boycott it...

Great on a Saturday night! And cheap happy hour!

Overpriced dive bar, but you can make it cheap by bringing your own food (they have no kitchen). Lots of takeout options nearby.
