Restaurant Bar Bar and grill Night club

😠 Went to this club on 2-9-2019. 5.00 cover but no running water in the bathrooms! Really? You don't tell the ladies before taking their money? That's just bad business. Sad and greedy! The toilets were full of waste and t-paper (at least there was hand sanitizer). Disgusting!!! To top it off, the own... People often mention great, good, music, time, band, night, live, leave, drinks, dance,

    Went to this club on 2-9-2019. 5.00 cover but no running water in the bathrooms! Really? You don't tell the ladies before taking their money? That's just bad business. Sad and greedy! The toilets were full of waste and t-paper (at least there was hand sanitizer). Disgusting!!! To top it off, the owner took the mic shortly after we arrived and told everyone "he" was having a bad day because "he" was having plumbing problems. He did remind the men that there was all kinds of bathroom space outside for them. He did not offer the ladies their money back or even apologize. We will be reporting this to the health department and will never go back.

    General manager of the bar was very friendly and informed us that we had 10 minutes until closing time. His bouncers, within 2 minutes, started shoving us and yelling at us to leave while members of our party were still trying to close out their tabs and finish their drinks. His bouncers ripped drinks out of our hands and shoved us out the door. Sorry but this place isn’t worth that treatment. Response to owner: you know what, I apologize for the 1 person out of 10 who was disrespectful. The rest of the party was 100% respectful up until you allowed your bouncers to physically assault us. Funny that you say to follow the rules yet you all physically assaulted us to leave. In the future, maybe you shouldn’t say last call at 1:40am, then inform people you have 10 minutes to leave at 1:42am, then tell your bouncers to go verbally berate and physically assault people at 1:44am to leave. The utter disrespect and lack of service is baffling. Side note: the quarter inch of water flooding the bathroom really reinforces how terrible this establishment was.

    Drinks are moderately priced and sometimes made with a lot of liquor which is both good and bad. But I don't really care for is when you're dancing on the dance floor they have the speakers up way too loud and hurts your ears. Makes conversation impossible

    Waitress never stepped from behind the bar and it wasn't busy. Drinks were poured with a heavy hand and not in a good way. Jukebox was skipping. Bar has great potential and maybe it was just my visit here but it didn't leave me with the desire to come back.

    The atmosphere here on Saturday night was great! Place is so much cleaner than I remember a decade ago. Bartenders were excellent as well. Would have been 5 star but I felt the live music sets go on way to long, be much more enjoyable if they played 4 and then took 3 off.

    Went to see the Cadillac Blues Assembly at this venue. Cool place to see a show with great bar service to tables and a dance floor. A real surprise in NW OKC. Awesome blues performers right here in our city.

    Many years on, still my favorite bar in OKC. Awesome staff, absolutely top-notch house band, relaxed atmosphere through the week but can get really hoppin' on the weekends. No cares about trying to follow the latest trends, it just is what it is with a personality all its own. We're all Friends here!

    I have been going to Friends for over 7 years and really like it but I went last night and had to leave after one hour because the music from the band and music in between their sets was so loud. We were a group of 20 and as family and friends.

    I can't think of a time I didn't have fun here. This last go round the tall black cowboy hat wearing bouncer went around introducing himself as me. He would approach groups of people and say, "Hi, I'm Brooks McGinnis." It was priceless when he did it to my boss and girlfriend. I just sat back and watched this huge man cordially introduce himself to most of the bar with my name. Ironically I'm a much shorter skinny white male. Think Ving Rhames and DJ Qualls. Google it. You'll thank me for the laugh or thank him rather.

    Bar and Grill, it is also smoking in-doors. Live Entrainment. Food and drinks are a little over priced, but comparable to other bars.

    I had a blast here for my 1st time. The live band was absolutely wonderful & sang a wide variety of songs. Loved the bar tender, I told her what I liked & she came up with something. Wide variety of ages. I'll definitely go back!!

  • 4/5 Matthew M. 1 year ago on Google
    Good atmosphere. I like that there's more than 1 bar open. Live music was a bit loud but it's live music. Plenty of places to sit

  • 5/5 Brittny K. 4 months ago on Google
    Loved Loved Loved The Music. The Band Was Superb!! Everyone was dancing and I thoroughly enjoyed myself and the drinks were yummy.

    Oh wow! What a great little venue!! The Thursday night country band was great, the patrons and staff were all very friendly and it's non-smoking. I considered myself having a great time until I checked my account balance this morning and realized they charged my card $27 and some change for a single shot of well vodka and a glass of water. Totally my fault for not looking (didn't have my glasses on) at the receipt before I signed it.

  • 5/5 Andrea B. 5 months ago on Google
    Had a great time with my husband! Definitely worth the $5 cover charge for the free pool table. Live band was excellent, love the older crowd very friendly atmosphere!

  • 5/5 Lovely C. 5 months ago on Google
    I enjoyed a girls' night out. They have plenty of space to reserve for a good size group. They have a live band and a DJ taking turns with the music.

  • 3/5 jerry t. 10 months ago on Google
    Old school venue that's part early 80's vibe nightclub, part local live cover band type rock music scene, part country honkytonk dance party. In short, this place is a bit odd, but fun. Feels a bit like a time warp walking in, but for low key fun that you don't have to dress up for and can just hang and dance and drink, it's a good enough spot to fill a night with Friends.

    My home bar ✨ Live bands every weekend, the greatest staff, and prices and vibes you can’t find anywhere else!! ♥️

    Went later in the night and happen to run into the manager who we chatted with for a while and he was rather kind and assured the group of friends I was with, could stay up to 10min until they closed (since we got there late and wanted to have a couples drinks at least)…well 30 minutes before they closed the bouncers asked us to leave, understandable, but we mentioned that we talked to the manager and he said we could stay until 1:50am (10min til close) the bouncer then told us “He doesn’t care, he is the boss” (absolutely not true after further verification) and proceeded to drag myself and my friends out of our seat violently (including a few ladies) and continued the pattern as he commanded his colleagues to follow suit as they all shoved us all out the door. (Little man syndrome) I then walked back in and talked to the manager, he was still kind and kept apologizing, but I asked him how we could improve this down the road (trying to be cordial even though it was a ridiculous situation)and he (indirectly) voiced he is powerless but verbatim said he “doesn’t have control over them” (uhhhh he is the boss sooo). Feel like this says a lot about how the “business” operates day to day. Would not recommend to anyone.

    Too late for food if any. First time there and was at near closing. Looks like a fun place. Friendly people and prices are reasonable. Wife wants to go back tomorrow earlier so will see.

  • 5/5 Teresa B. 3 years ago on Google
    Always a good place to hang out with friends and family. Great service. I didn't get our waitresses name but she had multiple colors in her hair, which was cute, wore a mask and she was on point ❣️ Which can make or break a place for sure 💯 The door guys were great and the bartenders were very busy but didn't miss a beat. The music was live and pretty good. Nice size dance floor. Everyone just seemed happy to be out in a very relaxing atmosphere 👍

    Went on a Thursday night. This is a really nice bar and the karaoke setup was fantastic. They also attracted some really incredible singers. Had a great time.

  • 5/5 JESSE T. 1 year ago on Google
    Wow I’m so impressed with this place ,thanks to skip the manager for such a great job,highly recommended

  • 5/5 Jacqui Bergen G. 6 years ago on Google
    Best live music on a constant level; count on that. Great food, wait/bar staff.... such a huge venue with front & center large dance floor. Depending on where you sit one can have any experience whether pool-room or club setting, etc. Private & dark ambience or in the middle of a rowdy party!!

  • 5/5 Hanna M. 4 years ago on Google
    This place is a lot bigger than it looks on the outside. The food is great bar food and the chef or most likely owner as well as all of the staff are super personable and kind. There is also Ski Ball and live music and pool tables and shuffle board. My fiance and I really enjoyed it.
