Customer Reviews
Fantastic "Ole Barn" feel, and the beer is cold! Customers & bartender are very friendly if you walk in alone. A favorite place for workers after work.
Friendly neighborhood bar. A real dive bar. No hard liquor. Nice outdoor area. Some real unique shops nearby. Blu Crystal, RePurpise Project, Satchel's Pizza.
The most down home friendly place to relax, shoot pool, or sit outdoors, wether on the front porch, or out back under the pecan tree, and enjoy the vintage feel and Ole Barns famous cold draft beer in a mason jar, complete with a staff that is 2nd to none.
No BS dive bar. The pool table is clean and level. Staff and regulars are friendly. You can smoke inside. Cold, cheap beer pours freely. Country music on the juke box. Come on down.

Cheap beer and good company. Smoking indoors and friendly regulars. Mary is queen bee. A true classic old school dive. Went twice in less than 24 hours.
My new spot to grab a ice cold domestic draft. Super nice people and for an old crusty dive this place is immaculate. You could eat off the bathroom floor. I am overly impressed.
Friendly neighborhood bar. Some of the best and up kept arcade machines (silver strike bowling especially), super clean, pool tables. Ice cold drafts in frosty mason jars. Visited for the first time in almost two years and the bartender was just as friendly and remembered that I had been in before. I don't believe Bobby's most recent review as the …
