| - Killer joint! Great music, motorcycle themed (more classic European bikes than Harley, but Harley's too), small old house, converted smoking patio, hip, but not hipster.
I've been frequenting this bar off and on for over ten years, and I love going each time. It has changed ownership several times, but the place has soul baked right into the walls.
Good service? Who cares. You may be lucky to get a beer when it is packed if you don't know what you're doing, but that is your problem.
There is one pool table, and you have to win to keep the table, so if you like competitive pool, this may be the place for you.
I dig the young blue collar vibe the place can have at times. In the early afternoon, sitting around with young tattooed motorcycle mechanics with their pin up bettys just makes me happy to be American.
Drinks are stiff, and there is an excellent selection of beers on tap and otherwise. If you like Pilsner Urquell, I believe they still have it on tap (one of the few places in town).
I used to go on motorcycle rallies out of this bar in the late 1990s or early 2000s, a great bunch of guys with all kinds of motorcycles, especially Triumphs, BMWs, BSAs, MotoGuzzis, Nortons, and a bunch of other classics. It isn't a biker bar per se, but coming from a guy who has put 1/2 a million miles on his 1976 BMW, it is the biker bar for me.
