Establishment not friendly towards LGBTQ.
My friend and I showed up on a Tuesday night. The bar smelled terrible - like a mix of run down hotel and nursing home, which was off-putting. But, I love small bars and was excited to give this place a try.
When we arrived, there were two other customers sitting at the bar, settled with a drink in hand. The bartender was casually walking behind the bar, and said hi to us when we sat down, but did not take our drink order. Totally fine, we were getting settled in.
Another customer came in a while later, and sat down at the bar. The bartender casually walked past us to take their order. Totally fine. We figured she would swing by us next.
Shortly after, another customer came in and sat down. She walked by us again to take their order. At this point we were getting a little suspicious. I tried smiling and making eye contact a few times, but she just walked right by us.
Another couple came in, and she helped them as well. I wasn't watching the clock super close, but by this time it had been about 15 - 20 minutes. She was also walking super casually. Did not appear to feel rushed / busy / stressed in the slightest. I totally understand missing someone when you have a lot going on, but this was a very slow, mellow night.
We are overly smiley and friendly people, so it's not like she just didn't want to serve someone that was being rude. But we were two visibly queer women, and the only ones being intentionally skipped over. So.... do with that information what you will.
We were finally able to get her attention. We ordered two wells, one whiskey sour and one rum & coke.
The whiskey sour was really really bad. The bartender gave it to me and said "I tried it and didn't like it." I tried it, and she was right. It was not made correctly. She did offer to add more to it, but the mixer was so overly potent that adding any more to it would have made it terrible. In hindsight I should have just asked her to make a different drink, but I always feel bad doing that. My fault.
Trying to flag her down for our check took another 15ish minutes, because she kept walking right by even though we were clearly trying to get her attention.
In the end, our two drinks came out to $19. This was an insane price for...
Read moreThe only reason this bar is getting a 5 star review is because of the Wednesday/Saturday night bartender Kasandra! She is absolutely amazing. Her personality brightens up the bar and is one of the best bartenders I’ve ran into so far in Longmont! This woman deserves a raise hands down! She is always keeping up a full bar and she does it so gracefully! She is helpful and regulars love her! I will always come back into this bar and she is the only reason why! I’ve been in so many other nights and during the day as well but she is by far my favorite. I regularly make wed and sat nights my go to nights just because of her! I have also brought some of my friends with me who now come with me regularly because of her personality and general care! Keep up the...
Read moreI can enjoy and respect my food when it comes in a bag... Bag of chips. Bag of popcorn. Can't really go wrong there.. clearly labeled, marked with an expiration date, sealed ensuring sanitary and fresh food. So it the stars had a neutral it would be on the middle I'm guessing. This is the reason I'm giving food at 3s a 3. Service...I'm tempted to give those chicks a 1. 2, seems generous. They are rude. Slow. Lack creativity and originality. D0lon't asks for suggestions when your struggling to choose a last call shot just note they could easily say something grimy, like, it appears as if you've had more than enough to drink, we won't be...
