| - I hope you don't think that I'm too critical by the end of this review.
But honestly I've been to better dive bars. The first thing that struck me was the location. Crap! It shares a wall the the Trunk Space, on a corner of Grand Ave and 7th ave I believe. Getting there, maneuvering the strange sharp turns, and then locating a parking spot definitely downs my drinking enthusiasm. -1 for initial placement. Although, if you happen to be catching a show at the Trunk Space, this place is 5 steps away.
When I first entered the place, I admit I was impressed with the interior decor. The whole tiki-style theme was nice and consistent. Except for all the stuff behind the bar. I mean a piece of paper with a note written with a marker saying "We have the right to refuse anyone service", just screams "low class establishment here" to me. At least the air conditioning and lighting were comforting.
The service was decent. The lack of crowd allowed my party and I the utmost dedicated attention. I ordered a large pitcher of Blue Moon, which if you have a three person group, the price is pretty good. You get three smaller than usual frosted glasses which I liked. However, as a fan of Blue Moon, I was unimpressed by how bland the white ale tasted!! I'm sure it was flat. It was cold though. Ill give them that.
Overall, I would come back again, but only if I happen to be at the Trunk Space. I see no reason to deliberately make this place my destination.
By the way this place is Cash Only......
