Was Christopher Mata at Latchstring Grill a mag?
This bar is one of the better bars in Fort Wayne. I went on a Friday and it had live music which was very entertaining. The drinks were on point. And the atmosphere was very easy going no out of control youngsters getting overly drunk. Food is good too. I always have a great time at the latchstring!! View all feedback.
What Pat Riley dislikes about Latchstring Grill:
This place is meant to be a gathering spot for everyone, yet they wouldn't allow my service dog in, despite the fact that he's saved more lives than many firefighters over the past 30 years. They made me leave with my dog, who has done more for safety and rescue than most dogs. My friends and I will never return to Latch String Bar again. View all feedback.

If you’re in the know, you know that Latch is one of the top karaoke venues in the area.
The bartender was extremely rude, and the place was dirty with a lot of unruly patrons. I wouldn't suggest this place to anyone, not even my worst enemy.
Dive bar with angry lil security guards that yell at you if you take too long to have a conversation in the parking lot before you come into the bar.Bartenders are pretty cool tho.

Beautiful regular guests, centrally located. Quality drinks at low prices! They get the right types of musicians to not overcrowded to shape, but they keep the crowd entertaining. Food is better than a lot of bars, but less than other grills/restaurants. I have to honestly order more food to say right
Great bands, but very small carpet dance space low seat availability. Lots of MJ out on Wrap around patio. Tiny bathrooms. You go for the music people not the atmosphere. Tacos are good. Plan B band has a full engaging sound.
Hella good times! It was great to be home for a while, yesterday this place is an explosion from my past!! I work there 30 years ago... And they still offer some really good burgers and excellent hospitality... And they pour a drink that asks you to come back, and as I remember, a very great staff that they enjoy what they do and for whom they do. Marty and Tom would be proud that Thanx would never have imagined in a million years that I would go there with two of my sons and walk through the memory lane. I want to come home and work there again God Blessing
Had another great night of music at Latchstring. The best small diving bar in town. Latchstring is a great little place. You have recently updated the ladies' room. They usually have good music on weekends. The bartenders offer fast service. Great burgers and tacos. Monday evening is always a great time for Burger and Fritten. Early bartenders are the best.

If you're looking for a vibrant neighborhood dive bar, this is the spot for you! This place is just right for a good time. They have live music almost every night, and there's no entry fee. Our favorite time to visit is on Sunday evenings, when the music is great and the atmosphere is relaxed. They have a wide variety of beers to choose from, and complimentary popcorn is always on offer.
