The Basement Bar

"Cheap drinks & decent music. Have visited a couple times & it’s been a hit or miss with the place being busy or dead. Crowd is always pretty young so it’s more of a college scene. Bathrooms were dirty & the place had a weird smell to it but was nice to see all the games to play while there."

"The bartender last night was really rude and made my drinks extremely weak, for the price I’d expect not to get straight orange juice. She was a middle aged women with lighter hair."

"Thursday night, a bit slow but could be cause folks are afraid of a little cool weather here in MN. Was here to support a friend DJ'ing tonight for the bar. Had awesome music, but the crowd wasn't there. The service here is different from what you see from other reviews. Bartender was friendly, food was good - but they close a bit early! You'll end up drinking quite a bit for the night, but that's all ok! Parking is tiny, but doable. There's street parking. The outdoor speakers needs to be turned up a bit to help attract passerbys! Can't really believe other reviews! It was during Covid times, but the atmosphere is decent. Just how you perceive others! You just have to give people a chance at life - they may have an RBF, but let them loosen up a bit then you'll see how enjoyable they are!"

"I went here for a girls night out and honestly, it’s not worth it. It’s not even worth 1 star. Go somewhere else, the staffs were rude especially the bar tender. I walked in with my friends, and after settling down, we decided on the drinks that we wanted to order. I went and ordered the drinks and nothing was available, the bartender basically said she can’t make any of the drinks I asked for even though it was a full bar. She was really rude and definitely made the vibe at this place unwelcoming which is probably why there was hardly anyone out here on this particular night. I thought that since there was hardly anyone, the staffs and the experience will be awesome, but I was wrong-it was the worst experience ever and the rudest bartender I’ve ever met, so please go somewhere else because I will never return here again."

"12/2/23 My friends and I went to the cities for a girls weekend and we found this bar, we got right in and we were having a nice time and one of my friends ordered drinks I ordered a 7/7 when I got it, it was just 7-up so I went to the bar and asked the male bartender to put the alcohol in my drink and told me he already did and if I asked nicer the situation might be different I wasn’t rude and I held my cup up and said it’s just 7-up it’s clear, he then asked the security to the bar and whispered in his ear, before I knew it there were two very large black men standing in front of me I said it takes two of you then it became something about George Floyd not sure why it’s not even the same type of situation except that I’m white and I was kicked out and my friends said there were a few that followed them out also, I actually met the manager Steven when we first got there bc I was standing in a wrong area I apologized and shook his hand and when he approached me and security I said I was just asking the bartender to put the alcohol in my drink and he said sorry if security says you need to go you need to go, I will never go there again. It was a very scary situation that didn’t need to happen!!"
