This is Travis Langdon, the doorman, who assaulted me.
This guy is crazy. Kicked me out after I told him how shitty of a bartender he was.

Despite being a well known dive bar on 4th ave, I hadn't been here until very recently. Upon entering, I already knew I was going to like it. With red and blue mood lighting and a packed yet peaceful vibe, I was immediately loving it.We snagged the last two seats at the bar and ordered a watermelon margarita with a tahin rim. The drink was strong and packed with flavor. Definitely didn't need a second one which was fine by me! Overall, a great experience - would stop by again on a night out!

Terrible people, includes racism. Kicked my friend out for being a little drunk when they could have diffused the situation in a calmly manner (giving him water or a soda) instead of starting a protest (by the bartender) from the entire bar. He wasn't aggressive, he wasn't yelling, he just accidentally picked up someone's drink that he thought was served to him.** three others in my group that wanted to drink, so they lost paying customers too.Oh, and this establishment also accused my other friend, Mexican, of being drunk. He hadn't had a drop of alcohol and just met us there. Myself (a caucasian), on the other hand, did not get questioned about my sobriety and I flat out told them it was my bday.

Secret Communist HideoutReally, there is a mural of Che Guevara as soon as you walk in. And I think they're being pretty slick with Russian vodkas (the sort Total Wine is boycotting because of Ukraine) at the front and center of the bar. All prices are friendly toward the working class.Che's isn't just a dive, it's THE dive. The epicenter of Tucson's local culture. Your favorite artist probably drinks here. Your favorite bartender probably drinks here. Hell, everyone drinks here. From the college kid who just turned 21 to this one dude I saw celebrating his eighty-something birthday. I see why. Cheap wells, constant live music, open on every holiday, big patio, and a passionate staff full of personality. Did I mention the best micheladas in town? I come here specifically to start off my weekend nights, and I come here when I'm bored and don't know where else to go. It's always a good time.

Discriminates based on class and politics. They let me in before, but then realized my political preferences after I tagged them, and wouldn't let me in after exiting... I wouldn't blame them if they were at max capacity, but it was midweek when they let someone I knew in right before me... won't be going back

You can be sitting in the back patio at night while a local band plays... or sitting inside staring at amazing art hanging on the walls and 4th avenue patrons walking by. Either way, I always feel right at home.Great staff, always efficient, no matter how busy or slow. I do prefer it, when it is slower.As a true dive bar, they have a $5 liquor menu all day long and yet they also have a trademark delicious fresh watermelon drink. What more could you ask for.

This place is okay. Service can get a little rough to get on the weekend.The ambiance is a bit like a dive bar/dingy feel. If you enjoy that, why not?Drink prices are good, it's the only reason I go.

My favorite place to get started or wind down for a night out downtown. They offer great selection at a fraction of the cost you'll find anywhere else in the area.Love how generous they are with the liquor in their mixed drinks. Also has live music/supports local bands

Went to this bar for the first time yesterday my brother ended up, ordering 3 drinks and the male bartender told him I'm not gonna be dealing with this shit. It's either you guys order all together or don't order at all so then my brother informed me to go order on the other side with the female so bc this guy was grumpy so I go to order from the female on the other side, The bartender ignored me and walked away. Turns out she ended up making my drink. My drink was made a different type of way than usual so I asked her if there was anyway I could get a refund or anything like that. She ended up getting really upset telling me that I should've been more specific . I then ask another man who seems to be the manager if he could make me another drink he ended up walking away from us talking to the bartender that originally made my drink came back gave me my drink and we apologized and just let him know why we asked for another drink. He ended up getting aggressively angry and was telling us. What the fuck do you fucking expect . then my sister and I were having a conversation to each other and he overheard her tell me the vibe wasn't it that we had to go soon he ended up, interrupting our conversation and telling us to get the fuck out then, and that he hates people like us always fucking complaining never tipping and continue telling us that we were bitches and that we needed to go. He ended up calling Security to kick us out. It was honestly just sad. We were just trying to get drinks and have a great night instead we had a disrespectful man in our face screaming at us It was very unprofessional I talk to four staffs that night and every single one of them cursed at Me and made me feel very disrespected. I will never recommend this place to anybody and I will never return ever again the customer service was terrible and they definitely need to be trained properly before anybody ever step foot in there I am very surprised that management spoke to us like that .

The owner of Che's works behind the bar, and he's a rude one. If you're not one of his favorites, then you'll get the evil eye. People who don't look the right way are asked to leave. If you're talking to a lady who happens to be a friend of his, he'll even hand you a little note telling you to get lost. Truly unbelievable. Laughable and pathetic. Chill, dude.But I'm still giving them 3-stars because it's a neat place and some of the bartenders are super cool.
