Unfortunately and honestly this review is not about the whole bar. Didn't even get to stick around and see. Had my physical ID and almost 30yrs old but... Door guy picks and chooses and then legit will joke about a person and why he did or didn't id them to the people behind you while you're in eyesight and ear shot. It's cool to do your job but to be unfair and even joke about it? Not cool.. plus you can see literally the whole bar from your chair. Like anybody's gonna try to pull something. And this sucks extra for me because I was someone who's gone to record bar since I was like 15 16 for shows when it was in old Westport; I'm 28 now and this one door guy was arrogant enough when I see a show is at Minibar next time I'll call ahead to see if he's working the door. Won't spend money with a guy like that gating your entrance....đ It was an important show and I drove a long way to hear this guy be a jerk and rub it in this guy's face.
Side note he lied and said they only have a tavern license which clearly I can see is untrue now because I can review food which I didn't because I've only eaten at Record Bar** Might wanna check him at least on that. We were hungry too and ended up going somewhere else even though I planned on drinking...

She gave us a ted talk about how we were going to tip her before we even played the show. I want to point out that she was rude to almost every customer that walked in the door. My cousin came to see us play and we both went up to buy a drink and I said âhow are youâŠ?â She responded with, âhow will you be tipping me?â It was very rude. My cousin asked her why she was rude and then ended up kicking my cousin out of the show. The only redemption was the sound guy was nice. 1 out of 5. I do not recommend and will never be back. I would also like to add this experience happened 4 years ago. Maybe they have done...
   Read moreMyself and my industry friends got of work and went to the minibar for some late night after work beverages and had a very rude experience. We were told last call at 2:30am by the bartender which we already had drinks so we were like let's just finish our existing cocktails and call it a night. At 2:35am five minutes after last call we started getting yelled at by the bartender to get out. We thought this very odd due to last call being just called five minutes prior so we questioned this and proceeded to get yelled at even more. So we left and all of us agree not a very hospitable place to ever visit again. Definitely would not recommend my patrons to check...
