This place used to be awesome, but it's quickly losing it's hype, I'm never one to do this but I've lived in the neighborhood for 8 years and there's this bartender Craig that is ruining the local pub, he is very rude, mostly to other people but after seeing what a bully this man is I can't help myself, I'm a white man myself but I've noticed he makes colored people wait longer than the rest of us, he blocks the jubebox with 350 metal songs so no one but him and his friends want to hang around. The other bartenders are amazing!, It wouldn't be so bad if he was there part time but even when he's not working he's at the bar drinking so there's never a break. I went in tonight on a Saturday when it's supposed to be packed and it was him and his 4 friends in the whole place, hope he learns to be a decent person or the owners wake up and see the business loss with this guy working all the time.

I love this little hole in the wall . specially when craig isnt working .jyst know there aint no food there . alls they have is a microwave

Good strong drink's and cheap food

really good experience for my 21st birthday. If you get a bartender named Tommy you will have a good laugh and night

My father in law brought me here a couple times and each time I thoroughly enjoy myself

Good local neighborhood bar where everybody knows everyone.

One of Tacomas hidden dive bars great service and good prices

I would be careful going here... They might have strong drinks but if someone walks in and they think they can beat you up they're going too... This is a very dangerous bar to go to.. the bartenders pick side of who they're friends are and if their friends don't like you than good luck fending for yourself.. I actually have bruises on my neck from the bartender thomas or whatever his name is because he choked me out and tried to beat me up... I was very lucky a few other people were around... He tried to beat me up because someone else in the bar from 6 months back remembered me and was also trying to jump me outside at my car...I will post the bruises on my neck later... "Bruises are cause by the bartender himself. I think his name is Thomas "

Great neighborhood bar very friendly and warm welcomes

Great friends, good prices, easy to watch the game
