| - I have been here a couple of times, so I feel comfortable in saying this is a great bar, mostly aimed at the punk/alternative/goth crowd but there is always a little something for everyone.
So for some reason on the yelp page it says this place is closed on Sunday's. Not true as the doors open for your nerd crowd and there are board, video, and tabletop games for all to enjoy. I really like coming on a Sunday (as I love board games) because it's a nice atmosphere to enjoy some different games and meet people. If you're not there for a specific group, though, you can't be shy. You will need to be a little more forceful in trying to get into a game but everyone has always been friendly and willing to teach games to newcomers. Plus, I like it better than Sentry Box simply because you can delicious breakfast for $8, drink, AND play board games. Like I said, I think it's a great way to spend a lazy Sunday afternoon.
Anyway, if you're not into board games the rest of the week it has a much more bar like atmosphere. There are specials everyday (including wing Wednesday's) and on the weekends there is usually live music to enjoy. Definitely check the website, though, to see if it's a bad you would like because that would definitely color your experience. From what I can tell its a range of musical styles but leaning more into the alternative crowd.
There are pool tables, darts, and a couple of arcade machines to keep you active as well. There is a good floor for dancing and some comfy seating in the back. The food is pretty good bar-style food and the drinks are usually pretty strong. If you're looking for a good bar with some diversity and a great place to be a regular, I really think dickens is your place. If you're looking for a typical sports bar, though, keep looking as this isn't necessarily aimed at that crowd.
