Used UP Atmosphere. Wow! The mixed drinks were high and weak, The waitstaff looked as if personal grooming was a thing of the past and the management ran around babbling as if they were under the influence as well. Grim place unless you just got off work from a greasy job and wanted someplace to go and complain about the world. Would not recommend this place for a date if morals are involved. Great looking place for the REGULARS they had perched around...............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

With the idea of not just judging a place by our first impression, we did a follow up visit to see if the management had made any changes. Much to our surprise, they had! The place got a $20 face lift. It reminded us of a cheap, fake blonde, country bumpkin bartender that we once knew. It does seem as if they spent a little money to expand the premises. Don't expect to see any new tables/bar stools or flooring. They seemed to have just knocked a wall down and "MADE'R BIGGER!" It was a fitting upgrade to the place we had originally visited.

We ordered Mixed Drinks at $9.75 each and were happy to see that they barely had liquor in them. We knew It was time to GO! Don't be fooled, the place is designed to keep you coming back, they ran our card twice. So returning to clear that up was another reminder of why we give this place the EASTSIDE SLUM AWARD!!!!

Good beer sweetly served. Good prices on domestics, mixed drinks are reasonable too. Also, the management takes advantage of the entertainment exemption to Labor laws apparently, since the business is almost exclusively staffed by shapely, attractive young women: year in, year out. Opens VERY early in the morning, a great boon to graveyard-shifters looking for a cold one after a long nights work. Worth a visit.
