What players say

O.M.G. The cutest little bartender in the world works here. Big smile and great service is what she is all about. Bartenders are a dime a dozen. Every now and then you find one worth her weight in gold. Diem is her name and I think you will agree she is worth her weight in diamond's.

★★★★★ Jim, Sep 2015

Dive Bar next to a liquor store mostly mellow with a decent pool table and decent service. Beer and a shot bar.

★★★★☆ Andrew, Jun 2026

Nice place to hang out, play pool or kicker, having a beer and just have a nice night.

★★★★☆ Frank, Aug 2019

Found myself staying at the Holiday Inn next door but thankfully this bar was at hand. Very welcoming staff and locals. I was even given free and very tasty food on my first night. Highly recommended if you find yourself stranded in one of the nearby hotels!
