Loft of Augusta

"The staff at this place sucks. Next door is Dirty Boots they will treat you better there."

"I’ve gone in here a couple times but I was always turned off by their dress code policy. To me, it came off as racially motivated, so when I looked it up I found many articles confirming my suspicions. I also noticed both times I visited it was only filled with white people. Now, seeing other reviews saying they had racist encounters at this establishment didn’t surprise me. I’d steer clear and certainly won’t be coming back."

"Beware of the racist blonde white female DJ!! I went to the Loft tonight for my birthday with some friends and my husband. The DJ was a white blonde female who was playing all types of genres back to back. My husband,who is black, wanted to request a song, so went up to the DJ AND BEFORE HE COULD SAY ANYTHING, the DJ who is repeat, a white female stated that she's doesn't play any TRAP music! He hadn't even said anything and automatically assumed that since he was black he was going to request "trap music". THIS IS NOT OKAY! I don't know what her definition of "trap music" is . I spoke with the manager at the bar and she stated she would go talk to her. The manager went and talked to the racist DJ for several minutes. Nobody ever came and talked to us or apologized or anything. The Loft was very unprofessional and it felt they did not care and brushed this off. All my friends and I left and we will not come back. The only thing that came out of this was the DJ played more rap music after "the talk". The whole situation was not okay and we felt very disrespected and not welcomed. We will follow up on this."

"Came for a birthday party. I am leaving this review after I was denied access after supposedly stumbling in. Bouncer accepted all of the women in our group but denied me the one man. Not worth going to. Bathrooms are dirty with bugs and so are liquor bottles. Came out against my better judgment for a birthday party and I definitely regret it. Truly a bad atmosphere with bad employees. When I told them I was going to write a bad review they laughed in my face. Shut this bar down!!!!"

"I love the Loft itself...great atmosphere!!! Problem I have is slow service...had to ask 3 times if I could get some service from 2 bartenders that were right in front of me. The bar was not busy at all. Only three of us. All three of us waited patiently on the two bartenders hoping that they would notice us and do their job. They didn't so I asked for us. Each time getting louder until they heard us. Again, I love coming here but would come more often if the service was alot quicker and smiled with better attitudes. Visited the Loft Saturday night 9-3-22 ."
