I have lived in Ft Worth almost 20 years. This is by far one of my all time favorite bars in town. I have a weekly standing date here with friends. If you are looking for a local dive bar with great prices and great bar keep this is the spot. Dave really has been our favorite bar tender over the last couple years. He is honestly the best part of the bar. Highly recommend!

First time and I got kicked out because I looked like someone that was banned prior. They grabbed my drink and told me to leave.

Noted I was here for almost an hour already. They didn’t ask for my name, just told me to take it up with the owner. I told them not all Asians look alike and left. Also they said they were gonna void a drink that I just ordered and haven’t took one sip. That was a lie.

Love the flyers. They're a great way to know what's going on locally, and Down n' Out is a wonderful place that hosts great events.

Every time I see their flyers on my street, I get a big ol smile. Keep it up, fellas.

Great retro bar with surprisingly high brow craft cocktails list. The jackass and noraegrets are both fantastic. Well balanced, tasty, visually quite nice. Bartender nick fantastically friendly and very efficient. Good music playing. Games inside, plenty of bar seating and outside tables and plenty of parking available.

Free hotdog roller bar on Sunday afternoons too. Well done. Great hospitality

Christmas Cocktails ARE HERE! 🎄🎅🎁🍹 We love this dive-ish bar that we can walk to from home. We've gone the last two weekends because of their yummy assortment of Christmas cocktails. Cute decorations. Friendly bartenders (when they're not busy). Just an all-around great place for the holidays. And the best part...*drum roll please*... They have a water dispenser with the little red cups like you used to see at Pizza Hut or in the school cafeteria. That way you can get your hydration on without having to stand in line or ask the bartender. 😁
