| - We strolled into this place after a dinner across the street. It looked interesting; very old fashioned, with a modern twist. The drink menu almost made me fall out of my chair, as the cocktails start at $10. I kept my mouth shut to appease the wife, and ordered an old fashion, on the rocks.
I must say it was a decent old fashion. $12 worth? Eh, I guess.
My wife ordered a s'mores themed cocktail which was ok. She didn't finish it and wasn't overly excited about it.
The first bartender to greet us was very pleasant to deal with. He was engaging, explained the menu and what the place was all about. He was very knowledgeable about the drinks they served, and was very personable. Then we got bartender #2 who took over our side of the bar. He was a complete and utter ass. He was a smartass to customers, had an attitude, and you could smell his arrogance from the street. He shrugged off several attempts at simple questions, as we were curious as to the drinks he was making and to learn more about the theme of the place. Bottom line, he thought he was too good for the customers in there. Little did he know we had a big group coming to meet us that dropped about $400 at the bar down the way. His loss.
Moral of the story, don't be an ass because it can affect your business. If you think being a bartender in Chandler affords you the right to look down upon others, understand who you are serving because they may have a pocket full of cash ready to spend with you if you just show the slightest bit of decency.
Try it at your own risk. Or just go to the better bar down the street.
