Nice pool table
It's not often you have a vending machine with snacks and cigs

Popped in here for a drink on a spontaneous girls night of bar hoping, we were pleasantly surprised and ended up staying there the rest of the evening. Apparently this is Lincoln's karaoke bar, living here so long I feel like I should've known that, anyway, they had karaoke that night and the KJ James made sure we all got a chance to sing and cheered us on. The place has those old school song binders but he was also able to find nearly every song we requested even if it wasn't in there. I wish I could remember the two bartenders names because they were epic and put up with us even our rowdy group and kept needing shots. We had a blast and met a lot of interesting people. I don't go downtown much but I will definitely be going here again.

This is a true dive bar sort of place - came in for a night of karaoke. It was clear that there is a normal, regular crowd that shows up by the song rotation. It wasn't that busy though, so we were able to get a few songs in. Drink selections were on par with other divy sorts of joints and prices were reasonable. The bartender seemed utterly bored but managed to keep a decent tab on us. Overall an ok experience. I'd certainly hop back in for karaoke again if I was in the area - but probably wouldn't recommend it for anything other than that.

The bartender who is trying to be a dead head and grow locks needs to be fired! Being a dead head is being kind and care free.. This girl has a lot to learn about life and how you treat customers... I asked her if she had a rough day and all she mumbled about she act anyway she wants and when I asked for two more, her smart ass response was "Two of what?" I entertain large group of people and I will NEVER use this bar... Stay Away!

I came here to do karaoke. And I had fun. I want to the bar next to it and has a cig before I came in and one your man bartenders slammed opens the back door and hit me in my median back. I told him he hurt me and said to fuck off. I will report this to Better Buisness Bearue. You don't get to treat your customers like this and get away with it.

Best place in town to have a blast playing pool and singing karaoke while also feeling so safe and comfortable to just be yourself. Be careful because youll wanna become a regular after just one time of visiting. The bartenders are so nice and fun! Karaoke everyday, but my favorite night is Thursday! I can sing my heart out all night and you can talk shit with the bartender.

Bartenders are great. I always get amazing service when I come in. I don't get up to do karaoke often but it's a fun and safe atmosphere if you ever feel like being ballsy and partaking. Something has not been sitting well with me for a while now. There have been a handful of times now where I have come in and it's somewhat busy. Anytime it's busy (weekdays and weekends) you see the bartender running their ass off behind the bar (and doing great I may add) while the owners wife (she usually works the earlier shift in the night) either sits at the bar chatting and drinking with customers or she's playing the bank shot machines and not helping at all. If you're going to run a bar you have to be willing to jump in and help your bartenders or hire an actual manager who knows how to actually run operations when Bo isn't around. I can't support a place where the ownership (even if it's just half) doesn't support the employees when they need it most.

This bar was not friendly at all. A woman was yelling at another customer to "suck my d***" and this upset me immensely. It disrupted my ability to mutually have a good time with my family and friends. The bartender took my drink away when it was half full. Will not return.
