I have given this bar two tries and after tonight I will never be back. The bartender was incredibly inattentive and rude. I paid $5 in touch tunes credits and during the middle of the song I picked he turned it off. When me and my husband asked for our money back he was extremely disrespectful not even handing my husband his money face to face. He just handed it with his back turned to the register. Drinks are meh to start with but the crowd is worse.

I was expecting more of a craft beer selection, but they really have nothing decent in bottles and cans, just the usual suspects. On draught things get a little better but not much. Locally, all I saw was Deep Ellum Dallas Blonde, Shiner Bock, Shiner Light (ugh), Shiner Ruby Red, Revolver Blood and Honey Shiner Desert Mirage Hazy and Community Lemon Tart.
Six bucks for a glass of Desert Mirage isn't bad, but I think next time I'll go somewhere with a better selection. I'm not a fan of Shiner brews except the TexHex series (of which the Desert Mirage is one) but most of these beers are mediocre at best.
Shayley was nice though, but overall not worth dealing with the West 7th crowd.
Real chill place and had a popping car show in the parking lot. Will coming again.

We came through for Mimosa Fest and it was fabulous! The bartenders were extremely friendly and quick to get drinks made. Lots of room for dancing and big groups. Their patio was also really cute and mostly shaded with fans so that was nice. The dj was also really fun and played a lot of good dance music that got everyone of all ages involved. They served some street tacos that were to die for! Would definitely come back!

I’ve been to this bar a few times and I have never had a bad experience. The staff is always friendly, the drinks are always strong, and the DJ rarely disappoints. Saturday night is always a sure bet for a good time.
