Cheers 2 U — Restaurant in Salt Lake City

I used to really enjoy this bar and often recommended it to friends. Unfortunately, after what happened last night, I don’t feel comfortable coming back — and I think others should be aware of what we experienced.

A few friends and I came in, ordered drinks, and left a 20% tip. Later, we needed to use the restroom. We walked to the back and found a unisex bathroom with a push door and a stall inside, similar to setups we’ve seen at other bars. The outer door wasn’t locked, so my friend opened it to wait for the stall to open.

A man came out and, without saying a word, and immediately got physically aggressive. He put his hands on my friend (21 female) and then shoved another one of my friends who was a gay man hard into me. The way he singled him out felt very intentional. All we were trying to do was use the restroom, and the reaction was completely unnecessary. Had he simply asked us to wait outside, there would have been no issue.

What made the situation worse was how the staff responded. I spoke with a bouncer to explain what happened, and instead of taking it seriously, he defended the man, saying we had “walked in on him.” To clarify, (and what I was explaining multiple times to the bouncer) the man wasn’t even in the stall; he was outside washing his hands. In the public area outside of the stall! I kept trying to explain this to the bouncer and he literally just kept defending the guy. It made me sad because FOUR people were telling the bouncer that this guy was unsafe to be around, and the bouncer didn’t care. I’ll admit that I got a bit heated after the bouncer didn’t seem to care, but I want to emphasise that this type of behavior and excuses towards a man who was obviously willing to shove a woman, or just anyone for that matter, should not be okay!!! What happened to basic club etiquette and communicating???

Two of us were women in our 20s, and this man, might I add, admitted that he was in his 40s. Between that and how aggressively he acted toward my friends, it felt unsafe. Eventually, it seemed clear why the bouncer dismissed us — the man had spent more money at the bar than we had. Our safety didn’t seem to be a priority compared to his tab.

I don’t normally leave reviews like this, in fact I don’t think ive ever felt like leaving a 1 star , but I felt it was important to speak up. I hope management takes this seriously — because when customers say they feel unsafe, it deserves to...

Used to love this place, terrible experience last time. Especially since my boyfriend had just flown in from Ireland and it was his first ever US bar. Disgusting. Since Mr. Old guy thought that he could give me a lesson.. let me give all you employees one. When you have a sign by the door that says “wait to show ID” don’t make people wait there for 5 minutes making eye contact while you have 4 people at the bar AND NO ONE ELSE IN THE PLACE. And when you finally call them over.. don’t be a complete jerk like you have something to prove by checking a damn ID. And when people get tired of waiting and they walk in to show you at the bar.. maybe take that as a hint to be more attentive instead of freaking out asking if they read the sign. Yes they did but they are sick of being ignored. When someone’s sitting having a conversation and you pressure them to buy drinks, pretty bad taste. We were sitting down for 30 seconds and were demanded to order 🤣 like chill please. We waited 5+ minutes by the door, while you stared at us. Your turn to wait for us. LAST BUT CERTAINLY MOST IMOPRTANT. tipping is a courtesy. There is now “industry standard” for tipping. Sure 18% as a suggestion. Especially since the tab wasn’t left open it was closed after every order. No, I won’t leave you a $5 tip everytime. I worked for my money and I am untitled to use it how I see fit. I’m not giving you $2 in a tip for pulling a bottle out and popping the top. Be so for real. Judging by these reviews not the first time you guys have gotten up in arms over your tips. If you aren’t making enough money, go get a different job and stop begging people to give you money, embarrassing. (Also learn to do math cause your industry standard would have left me leaving you a 55% tip 🤣 no thank you. Especially when it’s not deserved in any way.

Can’t wait to go back and leave a big fat 0 on the tip line. Idk why I even tipped for my...

Last weekend (friday march 25th) while visiting Salt lake, me and a group of people went down town to explore a few bars. When the night was over, we were going to re group after separating and one of our group member's attempted to go to "cheers to you" to get his and my girlfriend so we could go home. The door employee refused to let him in however saying he was "to drunk to get in". He had a drink a hour prior so I thought it didn't seem right, but okay. I then attempted to go in (being the DD and have not drunk anything all night or revealing that I knew the prior member of our group) and the doormen then refused to let me in not being clear on the reasoning. I gave him my ID and explained that my girlfriend was inside and her phone was dead so i just wanted to grab her. He then began to say "maybe the girl just isn't into you " and "don't make your problems my problems". He told me the bar closed at 1am and couldn't let me in since it was so late (being 12:15 at the time). After this I asked for a manager and he folded my ID then flicked it towards me telling me "i am the manager" (which I do not believe to be true) and again with the "don't make my problems his problems". After walking away and attempting to call the girl whom my girlfriend was with at the time to finally get through to her, i then see 3 girls who are barely even able to walk and pronounce legible words go to the door, and the same door man let them in after IDing them and flirting for a few moments. I have never been so mis treated by a employee at any business and will not be returning here ever. I am not a "yelper" but this experience was so awful that I created one, and also posted this on a google review. Thank you for your time, anybody who reads...
