    We are new to the area and stumbled in to After 5 while driving around to learn Merced. I was taking pictures outside due to how beautiful the landscaping is. Inside we were greeted by the owner, a kind, engaging and gregarious man who gave us our first round free for being newbies. He also gave us advice on the area which was much appreciated. In light of the covid disaster, to see a business owner striving and caring was such a blessing. One of the best experiences I've had. And the drinks were AMAZING!

    What a view!

    This is a wonderful place to go after five literally! I came here with a couple of coworkers after work just to unwind after a longgg Monday! The whole ambience of this establishment is superb! The staff are friendly! There's a great selection on draft beer and happy hour is always a plus! PROS: beers,beers&beers Kidding! Great vibes, delicious appetizers and reasonable prices CONS: none!

    Mother earth's cali creamin' the selection of craft beers at this bar is awesome!! Its nice to take a step away from the IPAs (they do have some) of every other bar and enjoy some craft beers that aren't so dark and heavy!!!

    Great neighborhood bar. One of a very few bars in North Merced. If you're looking for a loud,…read morepacked bar, this isn't it. It's pretty lowkey. Finding a table isn't too bad. Music isn't too loud. They have a bunch of TVs with different programming. They don't serve food but it's in the same mall as a bunch of restaurants. Wingstop is a few spaces down and they stay open later than the bar. You can grab some wings before you go home.

    This is one of the places in Merced with the most refreshing and affordable array of drinks. It's a…read moregood place to start your night. The music and vibe are great usually on Thursday through Saturday nights. If you go early enough, it's attached to Thai Cuisine II and you may be able to order Thai food and drinks at the same time. They also have QR codes attached to the tables so that you can order drinks on your phone, if you're able to get a seat. Once the bartenders are done serving the people in line, they'll deliver your order directly to your table. Unfortunately, the owner (Bobby, I think his name is) doesn't necessarily have the best sense of hospitality and can be rude sometimes. My friend ordered three waters for our table after she ordered some shots, and the owner gave her attitude as if it were such a chore to get us those waters. I didn't see a self-serve water station so I didn't appreciate the attitude. He can be quite dismissive, unless you're a fresh new female who he can flirt with. A different time, my female friend was visiting from out of town and all of a sudden, he was extremely attentive to us and friendly. A change from his usual sour demeanor. I don't go here too often due to the lack of a welcoming vibe from the owner (his staff are usually fine and generally more easy to get along with). Every time I go back, I'm reminded why I don't go too often anymore.
