My brother bragged non stop about how we had to make the drive from east mesa to downtown phoenix to hang out at this amazing place. Well, after meeting some friends for drinks at a downtown bar we made our way to Lucky Strike to play some pool and continue our drinking. As we walked in I was actually pretty surprised it was pretty damn cool. It was a adult playground, I felt like this is someplace my wife could drop me off for a playdate with buddies. We made our way to the pool hall desk and they told us it would be about a 30 min wait (this was around 930). We gave them our ID and phone number and headed to the "club" area to have drinks while we waited. For a Friday night it was pretty dead, but This bartender serving drinks was running around like he was super slammed when there was only like 10 people on his side of the bar and 3/4 of them had drinks. Even with that the other 1/4 of us he was ignoring. I later learned his priority was to get the waitresses taken care of before he even focused on us. After finally getting some drinks and settling in a booth in the corner we hung out. The music was good and the place was lively. After about a hour and a half we realized the pool people never called us like they said they would. We went back over there and they told us there was still a wait even though there was a couple open tables... I don't know the process but we threw in the towel on even trying to play pool. We went back to the music area and as I went up to get my tab from the bartender I again waited 15 min for him to serve the waitresses before even paying attention to us (not a very good multi-tasker). Earlier in the night I had accidently walked into the waitress station and the bartender had scolded my friend and I about being in there. While we were waiting for our tab a girl and guy walked in there in front us a few of us and got their drinks directly from him. This was my last straw with this bartender and I made it known I was unhappy with his service and the fact he scolded us and then completely let a couple of people get drinks from the area we got chewed out. This was one of the first time in a long time I did not leave a single dollar tip since after I expressed my frustrations he shrugged and literally danced off. IM not a cheap person, however I wont tip horrendous service when they even make it a point that they really didn't care about taking care of you. If your traveling far to hit this spot up its def worth checking it out for a couple hrs. There will be no next time for me. ill go to my local bar, the shiny lights and rude employees aren't worth that drive to me.
