The prices were fantastic, the staff couldn't have been friendlier, and the atmosphere was lively and full of humor.

The drinks are excellent for the price, and it’s just a short walk to the links afterward. Plus, there's free parking available. The crowd is a mix of young and more seasoned patrons during those hours, and the dim lighting creates a nice atmosphere. I really like the back deck; it’s a fun place to hang out, and the people here are enjoyable to be around.

The bar itself is centrally located and is the first thing you notice upon entering. The crowd felt very much like a typical dive bar family; it seemed like everyone knew each other, which I found charming. My partner and I were thrilled to find a pool table in the back, so after grabbing a shot and a drink, we headed straight there. Playing pool costs just a dollar and requires quarters, which the bartender was more than happy to exchange (plus there’s an ATM on-site if you need cash). The drinks were well-made and reasonably priced. We got two shots of tequila, two Red Bull vodkas, and a beer, all for about $40. Typically, that amount would only cover one round of well drinks elsewhere! While we were there, we overheard someone mention that they might be closing down, which was really disappointing to hear. This bar has all the characteristics you’d hope for in a local dive, and Tryangles definitely exceeded our expectations. It’s a hidden gem that’s worth a visit. I truly hope they aren’t shutting down because I would love to come back!

It's a very relaxed venue with a welcoming atmosphere. Many of the regular patrons have been coming here for years. The bar primarily attracts an older crowd, so if you're looking for a wild night out, you'd be better off at PLAY. They offer all the usual bar drinks served with a smile. What sets this bar apart are the fantastic bartenders, good music, and cheerful patrons. The absence of strippers is a definite plus. There is a growing community of older LGBTQ+ individuals who simply want to enjoy themselves without facing judgment due to their age, and Tryangles is more than happy to embrace them. They also have outdoor seating in the back, which is perfect for a pleasant evening. I've been coming here for years and plan to keep returning. I truly love this place!
