| - There's a lot to like about Mickey's. There's a cozy, fun atmoshphere, a great patio, generally tasty food, and interesting live music offerings throughout the week. All of this is trumped by a few snooty, hipster bartenders. For every friendly, helpful staff member there is a rude bartender just waiting to ignore you. When s/he finally sidles over to you, don't expect eye contact. More than likely your drink order will be met with an eye roll and a heavy sigh.
True story: A friend and I walk into Mickey's. The last game of the NBA finals is on the TV with 8 minutes left. We sit down, and wait for the bartender to stop her conversation long enough to help us... all the while, we are watching the game. We finally order our drinks, get them, and continue to watch the remaining two minutes of an intense game. Immediately after closing the cash register the bartender grabs the tv remote, and changes the channel to some black and white movie that's halfway over. Now if that's not a big "Fuck You", I don't know what is.
Long Review Short: Be prepared for the bartenders to be dicks to you. Not all of them! Just most of them.
