The Barrel,

173 Anderson Ave, Rochester, NY 14607, United States

"The dancers are disrespectful, and give no attention. There has been multiple occasions id ask to buy them a drink or talk, and get a dance and they ignore me just walking past me. Merely, to talk to someone else or sit alone."

"Took our money, didn’t say the time changed to 11:30. Literally walked in the door at 11. Door and online says 2am"

"The security was very rude and didnt show any respect to us fellow out of state guys didnt even let us in will never come here again"

"Been coming here over the last 5 years. Always a great time! Staff is always nice. That goes with having respect and being nice to them, haha. Bartenders are very accommodating. Highly recommend if you’re in the area."

"I went there for the first time in a long time. The setup and atmosphere are nicer than they used to be. Some of the dancers are also attractive. I baught one drink and put it on a credit card with a male bartender. When I went to close my tab the bartender asked me how many drinks I had (which had he run my card he should have known). I responded I was pretty sure I had 1 beer. He then challenged me and became argumentative and said he had me on camera at least getting a few drinks (which if that was the case then why ask me how many drinks I had to begin with?). He was practically yelling at me and kept telling me he was going to check the cameras. I told him go ahead. He went in the back for maybe a minute (how does someone check an hour of footage in 60 seconds?). He handed me my bill for 8 dollars (the one beer) And was silent. I didn't get an apology or an explanation. I asked if he was going to say anything and he told me to sign the slip and don't come back. I wasn't really comfortable signing anything from this place at that point. He came around the bar and basically physically threatened me and told me to sign the slip and I said no. He then slapped the slips off the bar and had security remove me. If you want bartenders that will try to steal from you (mind you after you've spend a ton of money on their dancers and the covet to get in) this is a great place to go. I'm shocked that a person like that is even able to be employed. My friend also had money snatched out of his hand by a bartender (not sure if it was the same one). And was never given change for his drink. I like to give fair reviews and consider the positive and negative aspects of places I go to but obviously being physically threatened and almost stolen from outweighs any positives this place has going for it. I would recommend staying away from this place."
