This place is a great dive bar that hosts a lot of local shows. Prices are affordable, and the people are good (bathroom photo for reference).

Great place and great people that come here. They put fun shows together, and from my understanding the Bands get everything from the door fee, they don't take out any percentage last time I checked. Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
