Joe Macias

You don't order a cosmopolitan cocktail at this joint. However, this place delivers exactly what it's exterior promises. A down and dirty dive experience, with plenty of grittiness to go for days. Blue collar folks here play pool, buy lotto tickets, smoke cigarettes and will keep it real for you.

First rate dive bar serves great drinks, has a great clientele and a great bartender. Shoot some pool or just belly up to the bar for a night of drinking. See you there.

I'm so disappointed! A patron was bit by the Bartenders' dog and severely hurt! I witnessed the manager tell him that he couldn't return to the bar ever again! How is this decision fair? The manager Sharlene had this conversation with the patron in front of other patrons, so unprofessional! I couldn't believe what I was witnessing! The owners should be ashamed of themselves! My friends and I will not be returning to this bar!

Good strong drinks. Chill atmosphere, double shot was more like a triple! There's pool and darts, though they're the plastic kind....not my fave but safer than metal lol.
