I have really enjoyed my times here with friends and meeting new ones. But a recent experience with Jack has soured my interest moving forward. I had four cocktails, was feeling it a bit and said that out loud, he asked if I paid for my last drink which I calmly said yes. He says, "Oh, I don't see it in the system" I follow with, "I can't account for digital transactions but I have my receipts right here" I showed them to him, all three (I purposely didn't open a tab and paid for each drink separately - glad I did) - and I did not fail to mention that I tipped $2 on ever individual transaction.

I believe we asked for something glittery with Irish Whiskey...and he pulled it off in under 5 minutes! (please don't judge me for that request) The bar is very room with tons of standing space and a few long tables with bar stools. If it does get crowded you can head out to their amazing patio.
