"Haven't been here in a while. It's a bigger bar with games and plenty of seating. There are multiple small rooms with different games and seating options. It's located in the south end, so parking can be a hassle. We didn't need to pay to get in, but they do have bouncers at the door checking IDs. This is definitely a spot to go if you want to play a few games, lounge, or just sit at the bar and drink. They have multiple TVs, so they do play the games. Overall, it's not a bad place to go and chill and catch up with friends. Nothing too different or spectacular with this place, though. Normal bar scene and crowd. I wouldn't mind coming again if in the area."

"Last night my cousin was telling one of the bouncers that the machine was damaged with his money in it. The bouncer became aggressive immediately towards him and starting beating him up. I’ve been looking further into other reviews from this place and they have had similar experiences of being attacked (from at least about a year ago). I would not recommend this place to anyone and those bouncers should be evaluated and held accountable for their unjust behavior."

"Closed when google said they were open. Wasted 17.50 in parking. I’m sure it’s a cool place, just wanna express frustration."

"This is one of the nicest places I've ever been let down by. If it wasn't intending to be a college bar, then I guess it was an accident. We came to shoot pool, and 2 of the 5 tables had ping pong on top which was cool in theory ... HOWEVER 2 of the remaining 3 tables were SEVERELY off level to the point that all of the balls collected along 1 side of the table along the rail cushions. When we asked a staff member if they could be straightened out, her response was "I wouldn't know anything about it". What a shame, with them being high quality diamond Tables. Yes they had 2 diamond Tables covered with ping pong table tops. 2 tables crooked. And 1 functioning table. Fun Fact: A diamond table costs anywhere from $5-$10k with proper cloth. There was pretty much nowhere to set your drinks. It just seemed to be a bunch of clueless kids running around touching everything and then leaving. No wonder the bouncers were all seemingly on edge. They had to act like glorified babysitters. Oh, and 3 out of 3 non working hand dryers in the bathroom. So now you have a bunch of college kids touching ping pong paddles, pool cues, and everything else...with no way to dry their hands. Such a weird vibe."

"Great barkeeps. Very crowded on a Friday night. Don't climb on the bar or you get the shaft like this poor sap. Kind of confusing finding the place if you've never been."
