Description

The Jar Bar, a beloved local dive, combines an inviting backyard patio with laid-back charm and decent drink specials, like beer and shot deals. The atmosphere is relaxed, featuring a pool table, jukebox, and arcade games. However, service can be hit-or-miss, depending on the bartender's attitude. While some patrons have enjoyed friendly interactions and a sense of community, others have faced rudeness from the owner regarding food policies. Overall, it's a unique spot for socializing, especially in groups, though potential visitors should be prepared for varying service experiences.

This is the best spot in Sunnyside for affordable beers and shots. It features a pool table and is dog-friendly, which is a huge plus. I couldn't ask for anything more!

A beloved local favorite, this restaurant features a lovely backyard patio that offers a relaxing atmosphere. They have fantastic deals on beer shots and reasonably priced pitchers. Inside, you'll find a pool table, a jukebox, and a few arcade games for entertainment. Each Memorial Day and Fourth of July, they host a fun grill event in the back that’s definitely worth checking out.

Throughout my time there, he was extremely rude and not helpful at all. I had to ask him three times what his name was (was it Marco or Marcus?) so that I would know who to look for if I ever returned. If you haven’t been there and built a rapport with the staff already, I wouldn’t bother trying to make friends now.

They have a deal with the Bolivian place where you can take your food there. We did that, and we informed the bartender. This person didn 't say anything but just nodded. He then came over and asked us if we wanted something. We told him we didn 't know what to get yet. Next thing the owner comes by and starts talking to us in a disrespectful manner for 3 minutes saying that we have to buy something because we have food and it 's warm inside. What he was saying was understandable but his attitude was unnecessary and what made it worst was when he said that we could buy something or go out in the cold. Basically threatening us without even giving us a chance to do what was required. This could have all been avoided by training his bar staff better so they could tell people coming with food from the Bolivian place that they would need to buy a drink right off the bat. If he wanted to make things clear then he could have approached us in a respectful manner instead of being disrespectful. He could have just said, Hi, just so you guys know. I will need you guys to get drinks since you have food from the Bolivian place. That 's it. End of story. But he chose to approach us with a rude and disrespectful attitude. I won 't be going back and I don 't recommend this place to anyone
