There is more smoke than air in this bar, it's disgusting. They are hostile to non-smokers. When I asked some woman who worked there to please keep the doors open because the smoke was hurting my throat, she snapped back in a very rude tone while blinking in a very condescending manner "Well then stand outside, sir"
The owner Debbie is a lowlife. I spend money there but not a lot. I am not an alcoholic. I will drink one or two drinks in a night. So I buy three beer chips. Sometimes I will use just one a night. Debbie started talking about me to people saying "He doesn't spend enough money here".
This Saturday, I came down to meet a few friends who were there. Debbie told the Karaoke host "Don't let him sing he's not spending enough money". I had two chips in my pocket still that I had purchased before. That is a tacky, classless thing to do.
If you are lucky enough to be a non-smoker and you still have a functional respiratory system, stay away from this bar. Your clothes will reek by the end of the night and your throat will be sore. It really is that bad in there. And if you don't spend money then the nazi-ish Debbie will ban you from Karaoke. They seem desperate to make money and are willing to resort to such classless tactics to intimidate people into spending more. And while Debbie's husband John is a little more personable, he kept comparing his bar to a strip club saying "Well would you go to a strip club and not spend money?" He's whipped by that witch. There are other , better bars. Take for instance Bogies Beach bar - right down the street from there. And you can actually breathe in there because the smokers tend to smoke outside on the deck.
When Debbie banned me from Karaoke for not lining her purse enough, guess what happened? Two other people left too and they are not coming back. So she lost three customers because of her horrible attitude. Way to go Debbie. Karan works at this bar as well and she's really good person. Debbie should just own the bar and not try to run it. She's running it into the ground. Speaking of which, I can't even find a record of this bar's existence. Sunbiz - not there. BBB - not there. I wonder if this bar is even properly licensed. I can't help but wonder.
The bar is also infested with druggies hiding in the shadows.
Bottles Pub: Hostile to non-smokers, rude, arrogant, tacky, disgusting

Read moreI recently had the pleasure of visiting Bottles Pub, and let me tell you the whole experience was elevated by the exceptional service of bartender Nicque. From the moment I walked in, Nicque greeted me with a warm smile and genuine enthusiasm that set the tone for the evening.
Nicque’s cocktail skills are top notch. I started with a personalized take on an Old Fashioned nicely balanced, perfectly chilled, and just the right hint of bitters. Then came the signature “Bottles Breeze”: a refreshing, beautifully presented drink with a burst of citrus and a delicate herb garnish. Nicque even offered a little backstory about the ingredients, which added an enjoyable personal touch.
What struck me most was Nicque’s attentiveness. Glasses were never empty, but the pacing was impeccable no overbearing attention, just the right amount of conversation and service. Nicque handled a busy crowd with ease and charm, remembering names, preferences, and even a couple of drink orders by heart.
Beyond the drinks, Nicque also shared great recommendations from the menu especially the pretzel bites with beer cheese (a perfect snack pairing!). The atmosphere at Bottles Pub is warm and lively, but it’s Nicque’s professionalism and personality that really stand out.
If you’re in Pinellas Park and looking for a fun night out, head to Bottles Pub and be sure to ask for Nicque. You’ll leave with a smile, a full glass, and plans to...
