Honestly haven't been able to find drinks for cheaper anywhere else. Defiantly give this place a go if you're trying to get the night going. The bar looked really cool too it's a nice place to chill in. The only thing I believe could improve is the service, I understand girls gotta eat but she was eating at a regular customer table lol. I'm not complaining though since she was super responsive & on every drink I asked for.

Super cool punk rock bar with hot gothic bartenders. Great selection of draft beers. Alot of cool games, pinball & all around fun. You want something out of the ordinary & different look no further.

The basement event venue was surprisingly nice & much better than expected, with the only thing id fix being the sound (alot of high end).

Upstairs offers plenty of seating, slot machines, & a foosball table, making it a good place to hang out.

The only downside was the drinks. They were expensive-I paid $17 (including tip) for a double with Coke, & it tasted watered down.

My partner & I came across this place while on our anniversary trip! The atmosphere was immaculate & I loved all the decor inside & the outside area in the front where folks go to smoke. Management & servers were amazing, they were so welcoming & friendly. The bartender even gave us cold tomatoes while we were drinking our beer & we will never forget how random & awesome it was 😂
Thanks Piranha!!
