    The male bartender was very rude. The bathrooms were clean, and tables were wiped down after every use.

    Some idiot Mexican guy told me to leave because I was wearing an 805 Brewery shirt. He asked me where I was from? He even asked my age? I am 61 yes old and I’m Hispanic as well, and was visiting this bar because of its friendly reviews. Wrong! Don’t wear an 805 shirt, I guess it represents a gang? Well I don’t , never have and never will but this sure blew my night. Bummer beware!

    FYI: I had a very nice time here tonight! I’m Black and I didn’t feel uncomfortable in the least bit. That being said, this place is not racist! I had a ball bringing the house down with my beautiful vocals! Lol! I’ll be back soon! #RehabByAmyWinehouse

    Bartenders can be rude. They definitely are not happy to be there! Drinks over priced and cash only. There is an ATM machine there but it charges $. Had fun playing pool.

    for RAMONE SALECDO**** 1. it was 5 dollars in quarters 2. I'm not a waitress, im a bartender. 3. it WAS a joke 4. after seeing how sensitive you were I apologized and gave you your 5 back. which you chose to leave and I kept as your beer payment. 5. if your gonna walk into some place alone, relax! it wasn't ment to offend you! but do as you wish to "ruin" me. good luck with that, one person's bad mood opinion isn't going to phase me at all. TRUST THAT!!

    Amazing bar. Great bartenders. A Customer was rude because I was taking photos of the stuff they have there. Pizza and Tomatoes. The bartender didn’t do anything. But she was kind to me. All good. I’ll never come here again. Danny, if you’re reading this. Good pool game we had last time. Maybe we’ll meet somewhere again and shoot. I wish I got that girls name that started this.

    Best bar on blackstone!! 2 pool tables, karaoke, darts, jukebox, strong drinks, cool staff and one hell of a night.

  • 5/5 Renee G. 1 year ago on Google
    Wonderful environment. Staff are amazing. Joe was very pleasant and cheerful, very attentive to customers as well. Brian (Joe Dirt) always has a smile and very friendly. If you're looking for a fun night and even wanna sing karaoke this is the spot.

    What started out to be a good experience.. My friend and I came here a couple times whilst visiting family, had a good couple of nights, when it was just the two of us. We later found out when we brought a couple of our black friends along they turned into very rude horrible people. Looking at not only our friends like dirt but us also, as if we had done something wrong. The gentleman with the mallet hair cut is the worst, very rude and disrespectful towards people that are black, looking them up and down like they are some kind of creature. Makes me sick. Won’t be back.
