My daughter and I visited after hearing the bluesy sounds coming from the bar. This place has a very cool vibe. We had a great time. Amber took very good care of us! Love this local spot after just one visit! We had so much fun here!
Great experience have been in multiple times everytime I feel like I can come and relax have a good time ... I only go in for Connie because she is on top of her game and has awesome dinosaur conversations I never have an empty bottle!
A real Cheers-type place where everyone knows each other's name and they're happy to learn more. Amber, Felicia and Misty keep the place going. Great live entertainment and events for a small venue. Beer fireball and wine based drinks. No liquor. The owner, Danny, is usually on premises. Always a great place to end the night. The golf table is fun.
Very clean! Exceptional service. Dan was awesome. Prices are great. Definitely looking into the many events/promotions they have going. We will be back!!!!
Just smoking cigarettes and drinking from a Chalice if you know what I'm talking about! I only go here Thursday nights for the wonderful Chrissie. Have some drinks, smoke some cigarettes, say hello to a friend. Always a great time. No food...
Wonderful establishment especially for the locals and out of towners who want a more initimate experience. Daily events, live music, karaoke, pool tournaments etc... all staff are kind and cordial. Smoking permitted and they have a dart board, jenga and a deer mounted with sunglasses on. What could be better? Highly recommend.
I've lived here since 1991 and I know the elbow room has been there for a long time but I just never been in it went there the other day and had a great time. Connie was are bartender and she was awesome. Total remind me of the smiling dog. But I definitely will be back.
Great place Bartenders are awesome, Misty is the comic relief of the place. It’s like a drink and a show.
