I definitely didn't expect to order a cocktail here. My friend and I had a few White Claws while we enjoyed some people-watching. I saw all the usual characters, but nothing too surprising. When I decided I needed a break, a man outside happily offered me a much-needed smoke. Overall, it was pretty much what I anticipated—not a bad experience at all. I would likely come back.

The layout is a bit unique, but one thing I'd like to see improved is a warm greeting when I enter. It feels a bit awkward since everyone stares when you come in but doesn't say anything.

They always have TVs on, but never to the games that anyone who even remotely follows sports would actually want to watch. I wouldn’t be surprised if they play reruns of "Matlock" on Super Bowl Sunday while missing the big game entirely. The tables and chairs are really uncomfortable, and the patrons are quite standoffish. However, the food is surprisingly delicious! And it's very affordable— you can get three beers and a cheeseburger for around $18. Where else can you find that? Despite the uninviting atmosphere and unpleasant crowd, I think giving this place 2 stars is more than fair, and I'm sure they should be grateful for it.

OHH YES, this is a dive bar but its spectacular! Legit. Like i want one in my town. Dark bar with tons of space, pool tables and a few game machines, i saw a poker game going late on Tuesday night, friendly as hell bartenders and drinks are cheap! The chips and salsa we got to go with our beers was also pennies and so good even for a simple mini bar app. We hit up this place twice while on our trip b/c we loved it so much. Oh and also b/c it was across from the hotel :P
