As a bar, this place actually has the propensity to be something incredible. As it is, it's really chill and great and I like to kick it there when I have a chance. With a few slight modifications, I could picture Time Out Lounge being transformed into my permanent hang out.
You ever seen that movie Mean Streets? I could totally see me being Harvey Keitel and Time Out Lounge being my permanent hangout spot.
I love the amount of pool tables and the dartboard and the internet jukebox. I like the whole layout of the bar. It's very cool and most of the bartenders are really nice. One of my favorite touches is the tables that have endless amounts of various graffiti in the form of "fuck you's" "so-and-so was here" and strange political points and counterpoints that it all blends together into a nonsensical collage of intoxication.
Brilliant.
The bathrooms are awesome. There are murals that have a lot going on. It's really fantastic after you've had a few pitchers.
If you're ever in this part of Tempe and want to have a couple beers and shoot pool, Time Out will do a damn good job.
