I wanted to take a moment to share my recent experience at The Bang Bang Bar with you. It was truly amazing, and I believe you would enjoy it as well. Firstly, let me start by saying that the music at The Bang Bang Bar is absolutely rocking and spectacular. Whether you're a fan of live bands or prefer a DJ spinning the latest hits, you won't be disappointed. Their remarkable selection of music caters to a wide range of tastes, ensuring that there's something for everyone to groove to. Not only does The Bang Bang Bar excel in their musical offerings, but their drinks are also top-notch and classy. From expertly crafted cocktails to an extensive selection of spirits, you can trust that you'll find the perfect libation to suit your preferences. The bartenders are skilled and passionate, and their attention to detail truly shines in every drink they create. One aspect that stood out to me was the unique and eclectic atmosphere of The Bang Bang Bar. From the moment you step inside, you're transported to a world where creativity and individuality thrive. The décor is tastefully adorned with eye-catching artwork and intriguing elements, creating an ambiance that is both inspiring and captivating. It's the perfect place to unwind and immerse yourself in a truly memorable experience. In addition to the fantastic music, drinks, and atmosphere, the vibe at The Bang Bang Bar is exceptionally chill and trendy. The crowd is diverse, and there is a sense of inclusivity that permeates the entire establishment.

***THIS IS A REVIEW AS REGARDS BRUNCH ONLY*** They do card at the door, so this is a 21 and up brunch venue. I got way too excited about the Jalapeño Popper Grilled Cheese only to be disappointed that it wasn't on the menu. Instead there was a breakfast Frito pie, which was really just okay. Didn't taste like anything I could have concocted at home for half the price and double the serving. A friend of mine had a Homer that I took a bite of that was really good, but still wasn't worth The $9 price tag. The only dish at our table that seemed worth the price was the Biscuits and Jalapeno Gravy. The drinks were really delicious though, and there were plenty to choose from, although the mimosa bottle service was incredibly overpriced compared to other brunch venues around town. The venue itself is really neat and is 60s themed, with fantastic music to compliment the atmosphere. Our waitress was polite enough, but was sub-par with her service, as she walked away each time she took one person's order and lacked personality. Overall, my experience was just mediocre. I think my expectations of the place were set too high, and I was really just disappointed in the joint as a brunch spot.

Nifty, quirky, and a nice change of pace. Really nice layout that gives more of a casual, relaxed vibe. Set up in different "rooms" or "living spaces" so you really feel like you're just hanging out with your friends. Nice little game room off to the side with darts, pool and a couple of arcade games. (I hope they fix the pinball) The food was really, really good and about average price for bar food. Expensive, but not outlandishly so. The drinks are priced on the higher end, but they do seem to be of the fancier variety. Around $10. They also have beer which is mostly well priced. Waitress was amazing. Very attentive and helpful when selecting drinks. Curious to see it on a busier night or on one of their kareoke/theme nights. My one BIG note is that the front door needs better signage and be made more inviting. The exterior does not match the interior and my friend and I almost left because we at first couldn't figure out what door was the entrance, and then once we did were put off by how unmarked it was. Great vibe inside. Just gotta get past the parking lot.

A go-to bar for sure. This one is a bar of variety and I love that. If you go on a weekday, expect it to be incredibly relaxed. It won't be busy and you'll have whatever table you wish (or comfy couch!) to sit and chill with your friends. If it's on a weekend, expect it to be buzzing and full of life! While seating indoors maybe harder to find, the patio seems to always give option too!

The drinks are really great and the service is excellent. The bartenders are some of the sweetest and kindest I've ever come across. They also quickly remember your order which makes everything function much faster even on a busy weekend. Likewise on a busy weekend, the wait for ordering a drink still isn't long which is a feat that only a few bars seem to be able to pull off that I've ever come across.

Also, if there's a beer on tap that you're curious about (as they tend to bring out some interesting seasonal craft beers too!), you can ask them and they'll give you a small sample to try so you aren't wasting money on a beer you may end up disliking.

Speaking of the beer selection- they really do bring out some interesting ones! I didn't realize I'd love a cucumber beer and yet now I know I do thanks to Bang Bang.

Another major plus is their local events. They have great musicians play that range from punk to rockabilly to hip hop and R&B to electronica even. They also have nights for dancing and karaoke! Did I mention even the people at the door are awesome too?

I highly recommend this bar and out of a 1 being terrible and a 10 being outstanding, I'd...

I probably can count on one hand the number of times that I've been here since they opened in 2016. Obviously business is good, but maybe a little bit of an identity crisis these days.

Not the safest place to walk around in, the floors are completely uneven not all marked for unlevel surfaces.

Some of the regulars are a little unfriendly for new people. Couple of the bartenders were insulting and rude, didn't know the names of some of the more popular drinks in the country. Like a Cuba Libre, Moscow mule, cape cod. In fact one bartender was very aggressive and said that people needed to stop being pretentious and order a drink. I guess no professional training?

Was given the wrong card even though I had to flag down a bartender and a bar back twice. Parking is a nightmare.

We went recently for a Halloween weekend event, and people in open toed slippers and house shoes is kind of awkward and dangerous. I guess there's no dress code even on halloween.

Whatever partnership they have with the dogfather hot dog restaurant in front is a rip. I'd rather go to Whataburger and get two complete meals with drinks for the price of one burger. Has nothing on their menu is less than $15. There's no indication if you have to pick up your order or if it's delivered or what.

We try to get a drink menu from the person at the door but they were busy hitting on women that were coming in instead of acknowledging their actual customers willing to...
