| - I have been a regular at Morgan's for a couple years and I love it. I have always been treated with respect by all the staff, and have gotten to know most of them by name. They know me as well and I can order my drink with a nod and a smile, which is great.
I understand the low ratings from other people. If you don't know what to expect, or are expecting some fancy, sophisticated place, you're going to be confused and/or disappointed. This place is unpretentious, loud, authentic and full of character.
I go primarily for the live bands that play every night of week:
Monday: drum & dj with go-go dancers (very much a club-type atmosphere)
Tuesday: "BrokenToyz" sleazy 80's hair metal cover band - great musicians with a great sense of humour - always busy and fun times!
Wednesday: 3 different local "Indie" bands every week
Thursday - Saturday: Different cover band every week, usually popular alternative/rock tunes
Sunday: Either a cover band or local indie stuff. Sometimes "Three Way" plays and if you like Black Sabbath, you'll love these guys.
They charge $5 cover (includes coat check) Tues/Fri/Sat after 10pm. Bands usually play 10pm-2am, except for Tuesdays, when they play 11pm-1am.
I've had wings there a couple times (wings are 25 cents on Wed & Thurs), and they're pretty good. Depending on who makes them, I have gotten them with too much sauce/seasoning but never had a problem sending them back. Chicken fingers are good too. I've heard the steak sandwiches are excellent. They've got a bunch of specials and happy hour til 8 during the week, and a jam on Saturday afternoons.
In regards to the people who've had a poor experience with the staff... Frankly, I don't believe they would act any differently than any bouncers at any other bar. They have a job - to protect the patrons and the establishment. Treat them with respect, don't be a belligerent, drunken idiot and they'll treat you with respect too. Even when I've been asked to leave, it's been done nicely and in two years I've never seen anyone treated any differently.
Anyways, the bar itself is small and kind of dingy and has an unconventional layout - small dance floor, raised seating area (with good view of the stage) and a pool table in the back. Oh, and yes, the bathrooms suck, but that's such a small price to pay for live music, awesome staff and the ever changing, interesting mix of people. Love this place! =)
