What players say

haven't ate there but have gone a few times on a weekend night. the staff is friendly and attentive. the patrons mesh well together and have a good time. music is good...sometimes too loud for too long(needs to give a 5 minute break now and then). lots of opportunity to play pool. cool place.

★★★★☆ Jayd, Dec 2025

Everyone, customer, staff, owner, you name it, was welcoming. Everyone was friendly. I met no strangers when we visited and I felt I went home having met anentire room of friends, young and old. The Pizza was the best I have ever had.

★★★★★ Diane, Oct 2025

I recently visited Papa Pete's BAR, and it was a fantastic experience that really captures the spirit of a great neighborhood bar. From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere felt lively, welcoming, and comfortable, making it an easy place to settle in and enjoy the night.
