I follow the karaoke circuit around the River Cities and in the past, Fatty Arbuckles Pub has always been a treat and escape from the "Dive Bars" that I patronize much more often. Unfortunately, this evening was an outstanding disappointment. The karaoke is always great, and usually, so has been the service. The service this evening was awful, putting it very lightly. One beer, a single Elderflower French 75, and a bottle of water tabbed out at $27.00. We waited 15 minutes for a second cocktail and finally decided to tab out without ever having received it. We were obviously charged for another party's drinks.

I can't rate the food. We didn't order any. We couldn't even get the drinks we ordered.

The toilet in the men's restroom wouldn't flush. I realized, after informing the bartender, that this issue wasn't addressed. There was also a constant influx of customers from another establishment coming in to use the restroom and leaving. Perhaps the other establishment should consider installing additional restrooms, if they have any at all.

All of our previous visits, Claire was our bartender, but not this evening. She provided outstanding service. I hope she's not gone for good.

All in all, I can't recommend Fatty Arbuckles Pub if you want cocktails or drinks with your evening entertainment. Consider keeping a tally of your orders if you choose to go here. I gave a very generous two stars, allowing for better service on previous visits.
