So this was my first Two Bucks experience. I've seen them around Cleveland for the last couple of years but never felt inclined to try it out, and I'm glad I never did until now. First off.....I have no idea why it's called Two Bucks. If selling one slider for $2 or selling a domestic bottle of beer for $2 gives you the right to call your bar Two Bucks then they should also go by the name Waste of Time or Don't Bother. My girlfriend ordered a Great Lakes Christmas Ale and when the bartender asked if she'd like a sugar/cinnamon rim she said "yes". Well I guess that at Two Bucks you only get a quarter rim. Must be Eight Bucks to get the full rim. I'm not going to get hung up on that though....that's a hard accommodation to make in any bar.....
I think the real kicker of the night was the food. I don't know who awarded Two Bucks the best Mac N Cheese in Cleveland but I'd love to find out the other "awards" they've handed out so I can be sure to avoid those places in the future. I find in EXTREMELY ironic that a place called Two Bucks is trying to serve artisan food. My Mac N Cheese was 9 noodles with half a slice of steak, 1.5 pepper slices and the most miniscule amount of cheese ever. It was $9.00. My gf got the veggie (primarily lettuce and onion wrap) and ate half and had enough.
My one star review isn't because of the quality of my experience.....I wasnt expecting a lot going in. It's one star because I can't wrap my head around how a place who's entire style is about a a cheap night out is trying to be high society. If you want to drink bud light all night for cheap then please go drink your little heart out. This is right up your alley. But if you're looking for anything else (including "award winning" Mac N Cheese) then you need to find another place.
I'll take my Two Bucks somewhere else, thank you. This place should be called Two Sucks. That's my zinger of the night!
