The Annex

We've lived in this area for over 4 years and never stopped by the Annex before! I'm so glad we were convinced to. Was always a little intimidated by the place for some reason because of the curtain kinda hiding what the inside looked like. It was my husband's birthday yesterday and we first went over to Blondies however he said he was calling it a night and went home. Myself and 7 other family members walked over to The Annex. The moment you walk in, you can tell everyone there is a regular. Bartender was so sweet and got our drink order. My SIL, cousin and I started to strike up a conversation with the regulars next to us. I think one briefly mentioned Blondies and we were like oh we just came from there! We talked about sports and then one had his cousin from Scotland there and the conversation just flowed. We truly felt so welcomed. I wish i remembered all their names but I am just terrible with those things! If you guys see this, I'm so sorry haha but thank you so much for your kindness and telling us your stories! As we left, we all hugged these awesome strangers. It was really really cool. Btw -- it's a beer bar, cash only. The place is dim and very long. The whole center is the bar/seating area which was kinda cool. The way it's set up it's as if it forces you to have conversations with others. There's also a shuffle board table. Bartender said they bring in food sometimes so we will definitely be back!

It's a neighborhood dive bar, It's small and grungy inside It's not a place to go for a destination it's a place to get a drink and disappear.

I went here to find a new place to drink near my new place. It's still a drive from me but, I'm happy to always visit new bars. This one serves beers, wines and trulys. It's cash only but they have an ATM. I took my brother there for helping me move big stuff. We also had my nephew along with us and he was okay to be there. They have a nice shuffleboard and plenty beers on tap. Most stuff is in the fridge and the bar girl was nice. Met some of the regulars so it's a good vibe.

Love this place. Real people and cold beer. Don't let the exterior scare you, it's all American.

Love the Annex. Cold beer, big schooners, and the best shuffle board table. Great beer bar.

Very cozy hole in the wall. I've came here three times now and it's an extremely cool place just to sit and have a beer and relax. The atmosphere is welcoming, bartender gives you space or talks to you if you want. There's a juke box and a table. And the COLDEST beer I've EVER had. And Lemme tell you, I've been to a lot of bars/brewery's. They do NOT sell liquor, and have very few beers on tap, but It's totally worth stopping by and relaxing with friends.

Good service & ambiance. Bring your own food from the outside. Shuffleboard games & stuff.

Courtney is quite possibly thee bombest bartender out there. Not to say she's out there... but we were. Such a pleasant time at the Annex I can't really describe it other than unparalleled. If you ask her to play 311 she will.

What a cozy, warm and friendly hole in the wall with super duper bartenders like Courtney who is just the friendliest person you will ever meet. The place has a great internet jukebox, huge shuffle board table. Plenty of intimate seating. Nice selection of taps. Plenty of parking across the street. Plenty of Outdoor seating. And free food for special events and football nights like Monday, Thursday and Sunday. What's not to like? Come join us and just relax and leave all your issues outside.

Smelled like farts!!! Yuck!! Also they had on Fox news!! P-U!! A hang out for old farts-literally!!No women were there (except the barkeep) when I was there.No ambiance. No food. Service from a sweet, pretty, perky bar keep. Reasonably priced beer.
