They have valet parking, though I did manage to find parking in the area just be cautious of the signs around. (Not paying all that money sorry). They stamp you so that way you can come and go freely. (Smoking outside only) If you get a ticket in advance a lot of times the tickets will allow for free entry before a certain time. Just make sure to get stamped if you're waiting for friends just head in get stamped and then leave so that way you don't have to wind up paying. I will say the drinks are pricey, however. I got four shots and it came out to about 60 bucks total. I also got a shot from the woman walking around with the tubes. Normally those are flavored, here it was not and it was $10. So I wanna say a shot itself averages between 10 and 15. The music varied. I will say that. There's two different rooms so we did not have access to one of the rooms but that room had cars with blasting speakers playing solo Reggaeton music. I think it was Spanish night in general because most of the music played in the main area was Hispanic as well. Though I will say there were a couple random oldies as well as Soca music thrown in. The main dance floor is uncovered pool and it makes me wonder if the place used to be a swimming area or if that's just part of the aesthetic. Overall, it was a good time. I'd like to come on a night in which it's not themed to potentially and maybe cheaper drinks would be better. If you want hookah, it's like 60 bucks too, and I know some that might not seem too expensive, but as someone who lives in Brooklyn. If it cost more than I would do in Manhattan, in a place like jersey, to me it's like wow. read more

BarCode Entertainment Complex - Bathroom plugs? - Lounges Near Me - Elizabeth, New Jersey

Huge venue. No longer has a pool in the middle! Ladies free before 11. Street parking or $20 parking in lots in the area. Friendly staff. Drinks not cheap but not overly priced either. They do offer hookah if you are into that and tables are reasonably priced. Went on a Saturday night and it was far from packed but the DJs were pretty good. Would love to see this place packed out. read more

First of all this place is so trashy you can go in whatever don't even bother getting dressed up but the worst is the way they run their business ... I made reservation over the phone they tell me 120 per person (4 of us) for vip sofa when I get their they tell me it's actually 700 for the sofa but they will bring it down for me bla bla bla I was already annoyed but I'm their so I'm like okay whatever than they try to give me the crappy sofa on the side that pissed me off and I just left after paying the overprice entrance fee read more

What a party .. drinks , pool and . The ambiance with the lights dim is excellent. Definitely has to have the right promoter hosting to make it special. The service was pretty good. However, there was so miscommunication on section selection which cause a disturbance at some point. Overall I'd definitely come back. read more

BarCode Entertainment Complex - My ppl - Lounges Near Me - Elizabeth, New Jersey

Shakeera was a great help and provided excellent service would definitely recommend.!!!

I like the music and the setting in this club. I come from California at least once a year and whenever I get chance I like to go dancing. I got dressed with santa attire and brought a friend from cali.We signed up the night before to get in free. However, by the time I parked and passed 3 security checks( 3 different people; checking your bag, iDs and feeling your body) it was 11:02pm .The manager in a very cold tone of voice wanted us to pay to get in, the regular admission. We were only 2 minutes late. He preferred to lose customers who possible would spend much more than $10. This was very disappointed considering we are visiting from california read more

Hidden gem in the downtown streets of Elizabeth... come for the atmosphere, stay for the shenanigans! Once you walk in you are at the bar area. Plenty of tables and space to chill. The bar seating is plenty as is the TV's. They had the UFC when I went on a Saturday night. The next room is the club. This club has its own bar, high-top tables, and lounge seating. All are built in the service where you can buy bottles, food and hookah. Oh, and how can I forget the pool in the middle of the club. Bring your bathing suit if you dare! There was a cover charge for guys ($20), ladies free... but not sure if it's all night. The prices aren't too high for bottle service. All in all, it was a fun time had by all. FYI: Parking is street parking so be careful where you choose to park. read more

They took me and my friends belongings and threatened to throw them out and when we asked security if they can hold our things she said "I don't hold nun" extremely unprofessional. we also got 2 shots of tequila and 2 margaritas they charged us $55 & $66. Coat check was also $10 a coat. smh there was people smoking weed read more

Perfect example the club scene is dead: Felt like walking into a room full of strangers who all agreed not to speak. Zero atmosphere, zero engagement. People just linger around with blank faces and glued to their phones -- no social spark whatsoever. read more

PROS: This place was the best club I've ever been to! The place had a stage, a few DJ booths, strobe lights, confetti, multiple bars, A LOT of space to hold many people, hookah, etc. They had plenty of staff so you weren't waiting around. The drinks were affordable and they even served food during the clubbing hours. CONS: Despite being in a bad area, there was only street parking rather than a parking lot. The bathroom only had one stall. OVERALL: This place is a Spanish oriented club that I will be going back to. Other places are either too small to handle the crowd they get, or it doesn't give me major city type clubbing experience. However, if you're gonna go down to that area, just make sure you watch your back read more

Amazing club lounge and restaurant. The staff is amazing. The vibe is great. I'm celebrating my 50th birthday here in August. read more

"The Singles Bar Life" Barcode might advertise themselves as a "Bar" or "Lounge" or "Nightclub". The hard reality is that this is a bar for single people that want to mingle. Meaning that this isn't the type of bar that you want to have your birthday party at, or the place where you and friends want to go out for dinner and eat, or even the type of bar where you can hang out with your friends. There should only be one reason that you would ever want to go to Barcode and that is if you are single and ready to mingle. Because if you do, then you are going to have an awesome time, because the fact is that this isn't a restaurant like an Applebee's or your typical "restaurant and bar" place, meaning that you aren't compelled to buy food. I mean why would you, don't buy food, just order drinks and start mingling with the single people at the bar. If you are thinking that Barcode might be a good place to hang with your friends, I got a better suggestion "Dave and Busters" at least you won't have to pay money to get in and you and your friends will have a lot more fun than at Barcode. Barcode the bar made for the singles life, in reality it's "Barcode the singles bar". The type of men and women that go to this bar looking for something casual are bilingual people English/Spanish who are between ages 21-35 who have college level education maybe a small portion are college graduates. Older Spanish people be warned as you will not be successful. Trust me, I know I am describing this place as not a good place but if you are looking to mingle, you will have a great time. Also be warned, some of the women that go to the barcode are regulars meanly if you are a regular at the barcode YOU WILL SEE THE SAME WOMEN! Keep this in mind if you are looking for something casual at the Barcode. I hope you enjoyed my review, remember to drink responsibly and have fun. read more

Maggie was amazing she is the best bartender she gave amazing service and drinks were perfect

Used to go here before covid and would have a great time. Came here tonight and ordered 2 drinks Then was harassed into getting hookah So I got it bc he was bugging. When he brought it to us he sucked it for a while and just stood there as we watched him I asked my server a few questions on the drink menu and she did not know the answers When I received my drink I was enforced that I MUST order food with a drink. To my surprise this was not told to me at all not at the entrance, while ordering the drinks, nor is it stated on their website. She then told us they're cheapest food item was $10+ Wtf Then she forgot our damm receipt At least they're drinks are strong read more

After hearing the hype over the years about Barcode I finally decided to check it on a saturday night. Immediately entering the establishment I understood why this place has all the bad reviews. I tried to give it the benefit of the doubt but throughout the night the service just kept getting worse ! This place is huge and theres only one bar on the main floor. There were only 2 bartenders on a saturday night. The place wasnt packed but there were enough people for it to be a LONG wait to get a drink at the bar. The drinks were expensive and watered down. But that was the least of my frustration .. it was really the hookah SCAM. $30 for a hookah & there arent any flavors to choose from .. just a regular cheap small hookah .. ok. Whatever. HOWEVER, REFILLS ARE ANOTHER $30 ??? No, im not talking about them refilling the whole hookah (coals and shisha), ONLY CHANGING THE COALS !!! What ?!! Our hookah was disgusting and also broken (hose was cracked) and wasnt pulling right, I brought this to the attention of one of the many hookeros/as walking around and he pulled on the hookah and just because he got a little smoke to come out he said "it works" and walked away. I also kept wondering why the hookahs were going out every 20 min and its because they were only putting ONE COAL IN THEM. So people are paying $30 for them to throw you a measily .25 cent coal to keep your crappy ass hookah running for the next 20 min ??? This should be a CRIME ! One employee came up to me and asked my friend and I to move away from the table we were sitting at supposedly because "a group of guys who bought bottles wanted to sit at a table" and we were singled out to move even though there were other tables open. How rude. I then passed by the table that we were moved from 15 min later and it was 2 girls sitting there with a hookah .. no bottles or anything .. I really didnt understand what was going on. The bathrooms were outdoor glorified port-a-potties. The DJ was horrible. The staff were all rude from the lady checking ID's all the way to the employees inside. Just bad customer service across the board. How are you rude to the people who are funding your JOB. No customers=No job .. im guessing thats a hard concept to grasp for these people. The only thing that I can say nice about this place is that the pool was a cute addition to the scene, and whatever other small decor they had going on. Thats it. There was also supposed to be a guest appearance that night and that person never showed. I dont know how people are even willing pay to get into this establishment. Maybe it was an off night, but judging by the other reviews they must have many off nights. Will not be returning. read more

STAY CLEAR OF BARCODE! Where to begin... *** Venue Layout & Space *** If you like to actually see the DJ perform, this is not the place for you. It's hard to tell from pictures of the venue, but the DJ plays above the pool area, however, the majority of the seating and tables are further inside and around the corner, so you will likely be sat where you can't even see the DJ! The whole layout just doesn't make sense and all you can do is imagine how much fun the people around the corner are having. *** Staff & Security *** Getting into this venue feels like getting into a government building. First off, security is all over the place - some people were told to take their shoes AND socks off, some people received a gentle pat. Everyone was required to take off their mask and get their PICTURE taken at the door. Once inside you are funneled into a line where they hold your ID for the night and LOCK YOUR PHONE in a little pouch that they give to you and can only have unlocked at the end of the night. What about those of us with dogs or kids being watched who may have an emergency?? Too bad. You're also left not knowing what time it is, which is bad enough on its own and even worse when the staff use that to take advantage of patrons as the night wraps up without them knowing. *** UPSELL UPSELL UPSELL *** Man, talk about a venue that just wants to get you trashed and take advantage of you. You are constantly barraged with staff asking if you want a hooka and they are always coming around trying to get you to buy more drinks. I can totally understand this to an extent, BUT NOT WHEN YOU ORDER 8 WATERS AND THEY COST $70!!!! This is not a joke. Towards the end of the night we ordered waters for everyone at our table and it was $70 for 8!!! How is this even legal?? There was 30 minutes to close and our friend was in the bathroom and she heard the staff in the bathroom yelling "alright everyone UPSELL UPSELL UPSELL" - and note, nobody knows what time it is, so they're getting these people drunk right before they have to leave! The staff are literally squeezing every last penny they can out of the patrons. My friends and I WILL NOT be returning to this venue and we encourage all potential guests to stay away. It's such a shame that such great artists can play in such awful places. read more

Visiting from California and on a Sunday night was looking for a dance spot with hip-hop. Someone recommended Barcode. It was a cool vibe, great music, and overall we had a nice time. Want to give a shout out to Shakeera who was incredibly professional and helpful. Thanks, Shakeera! read more

This place is absolutely terrible. $20 cover for guys, $10 for girls. They take your vape if you have one at the door; at least it's a check: you're supposed to be able to get it at the end of the night. This is to sell their hookahs which are $30 each. Drinks are very expensive: $7 for beers and $15 for mixed drinks. Expect minimum $160 for bottles, but most are about $300 or more. Tables are $750, so don't expect to sit anywhere. Music is so loud that you can't hear unless you shout into someone's ear. I enjoy nightlife, but this Must be the biggest scam around. read more

I wish I could leave 0 stars.... This review was actually encouraged by the manager at Barcode. He literally said "go ahead and write a bad review about us." I won't write a bad review, everyone below me has already shown many examples of how terrible this place is. Instead, I'll write to the owners of Barcode : First of, hi! I think you have a great space and there's so much potential. However you should realllyyyyyyy look for a new management team. Don't get me wrong, the rest of your staff were not great either but that's a huge reflection of your management. Hospitality was bad. Service was bad. Management was bad. No social distancing and people didn't wear masks. (until the police showed up and all of security ran around the venue asking everyone to put on their masks and to sit down ) Also they make you put your phones in these little pouches so you can't take pictures or videos and they tell you they will rip up your ID if you break the pouch to use your phone. ‍ I was hoping to like Barcode too. read more

The service here was terrible. They refused to let my friend in and claimed her ID was fake. She's 26! Why in the world would she use a fake ID? The did not take any responsibility when they damaged my friend's car. (She used Barcode's valet service) DO NOT use their valet service! This is not the first time I heard horror stories of damaged vehicles. They were also RACIST and did not let 2 of my black friends in and claimed they were "not part of our group" I would not recommend this place. All my friends and I agreed we will not be coming back. read more

Where can I start I have a lot to say !!! Started off as a small group a Sunday birthday brunch (in October)to end as a large group night outing with DJ clue !! We were seated not at our table of choice -- place was not full but it wasn't empty the tall tables were occupied. Bartender was attentive all over the men with their wife's on my table. Offered shots to charge them on the bill -- made it seem like they were free bday shots but charged at end. Food was cold -- seemed precooked and re heated. From the begging we stated we were going to stay past the brunch since we commuted from the city to Elizabeth, NJ! We consumed a good bill for 6 people to start--- bartender tried it by charging extra beer bucket immediately noticed -- (colombianita) although most are. Not going to post her name but will disclose once I get a reply from owner. She got a great tip included and cash at the end of night whereas she had promised a table for night session next to pool. Once we closed bill she claimed it was requiered in order to get us to a area by pool-- went to bathroom came back-- she disappeared. Never saw her again-- Then Claimed the area we wanted to sit was reserved !!! They threw us to the back assigned another waitress that could not find a table to sit us on. They continue to claim we had consume bottles to sit in the part of the pool facing the front taller tables by the trees that light up (pic below)-- at that point we had given up to sit by the pool. No tables we saw open they claimed were NOT available they claimed we had to consume over 2,000Gs to sit there. At that point our guests were disturbed and started leaving we had 6 additional people that were on their way -- absolutely told them to not even bother due to the disturbances !!! We stood to enjoy hubbies bday from 12 guests stood with 3. Asked for a bottled service of casamigos -- none in stock only reposado. Absolutely not did not order what they wanted had to settle for Patron. Wonder why the did not have regular casamigos ! ? Big difference in price--more expensive!! New assigned bartender added 3 extra red bull claimed couldn't take em back and we had to pay for them lol. Money wasn't an issue the service was.!! We consumed a lot from start to finish-- dropped over 1 k grand that night . Moreover, area we were assigned (lol) Was cold, we request heater to be moved closer , they did they couldn't move. It gets better.... they sat us in the back by the no dancing sign (see pic below) turns out Johnny marines had a table reserved and walks in --- my gosh how everyone changed!!!! We tried again and requested the heater and all of a sudden it was able to get moved ! The bartenders became friendly and attentive after we were thrown to the back and forgotten. People in the front drinking beers had a better tables than we did -- people buying single drinks and consuming less sat in Better tables with better view. I will never ever go back to this place again experience was terrible!! My husband a well known dj will use his social media influence to voice out his experience with the people working in this place and bad service in general. I will never leave uptown again for jersey. We left earlier then we wanted. Ooh and after they claimed they had to vacate and reopen at 7 -- never did people arrived at 6:45p ordered food and stood in the Same table meanwhile we had to move --- I took pics and videos of how the tables they claimed were reserved which never where-- it's a wack strategy to make ppl blow money, close tabs get their tip and f- u , sounds accurate. Horrendous ! Hope this review becomes helpful! If they did us dirty but Clearly told the manager and waitresses that the review was coming to Yelp and Google. (They didn't care ) I bet they will continue to do it to others. read more

Big black security guy with medium length dreads and a neon yellow shirt (tall and built/chubby), called me a little bitch as I was leaving. I went to get my two hidden vapes by the entrance door corner and he yanked one away from my hands because he accused me I was stealing one. They were both mine and they were the same flavor and together, he wouldn't let them go until they brought Gabby, a sweet Spanish security lady told me she will keep them safe when I leave, he didn't believe me and was SCREAMING in front of a lot of people. And this guy yelled at me out loud and called me BITCH. So disrespectful, especially from a grown man. I am very disappointed and I hope no other female encounters him. It was very scary. I'm from Manhattan and I will never return here again. So rude, one experience can change your whole view on a venue, it's sad. read more

I had a really good time here! The bartenders were nice! Drinks were a bit expensive for my preference but at least I had a great time. The DJ was playing great music, and we even had a little throw back moment with some old songs I forgot existed but just made for a great time. I would definitely come here again, and probably with a bigger group. I only went with three friends. I would recommend this place for a fun night out if you have like $150-$200 to spend at minimum. read more

Had a GREAT time here over the weekend. My co-workers and I decided to come here just to hang out and have a good time. Normally there is no parking here on a Saturday night, however I was able to come here somewhat early and get parking right across the street. The atmosphere was great! The DJ played a combination of Spanish music along with Hip-Hop and R&B! The drinks were well made, the bartenders and staff were very friendly, I didn't really have any complaints! The only disadvantage was that the line for the woman's bathroom was extremely long however, once inside, the bathroom was very clean for the place to be crowded and the woman inside the bathroom was very nice and accommodating. Additionally, there is an outside that offers a much larger venue for space. Since there was a fight on this weekend, if you wanted to sit down you had to purchase a bottle; bottle service started at $250 which was standard for a night club. Overall, I had a GREAT TIME and definitely see myself coming back! read more

Went there for my friend's birthday after some hesitation about going. Upon arrival was searched (no one else in my party was searched, was also the only POC). Attended the day party, at 8 they shut off the music kicked all the POC out and told them if they wanted to re enter for the next event they had to pay again. The tickets for the first event for $50. AND everything is overpriced. So it's a NO from me, won't get another black dollar from me. ALSO, after my friend tagged them in a post (typical positive partying post) and they untagged themsellves.... read more

I would advise anyone that wants to have a good time to avoid this place at all cost. This is not a nightclub or a lounge, it's a building filled with tables with no dance floor or sense of organization. Cash only single bar with extremely slow service. Uneven heating and cooling thought the building with old rundown walls and seating areas. Bartenders in the smaller area at the back of the club are much more reasonable. However, the overuse of CO2 in the main building creates enough back pressure to push all the smell of trash and mildew into the building. The place is a social engineering nightmare. Avoid at all cost. read more

"Worst experience I've ever had in my life!" First off the prices are always different, even if it's the same day I got 2 different prices for the same bottle and drinks. I don't know what it is but they need to start checking the people going in because most are rowdy and don't know how to act! There's more that I could write that's worse but I'll leave it at that. Never again will I go to this place. I wouldn't be surprised if they're forced to close because of a brawl or a shooting. It's only a matter of time! read more

Worst possible service I could have ever had. I hate to ever give a place only a 1 star but honestly if I had the choice I'd have most likely given a 0 star. So we come on a Thursday night which is supposed to be a popular Colombian night and go out of our way to pop 2 bottles and already off the bat they took about 40-45 minutes just to bring the bottles. Then they instantly messed up by not bringing the proper mixes of club soda, cranberry juice and Red Bull. Instead we only received cranberry juice and very little ice in the bucket on top of that. Finally after another 10 minutes they bring club soda but at no point do they bring us Red Bull. Then to make matters worse, the place is extremely packed and we choose to leave this place. Takes over a ridiculous 2 hours just to get the damn bill so we can pay and leave. Worst experience ever had even despite reaching out to multiple servers and workers to help get the bill. Hands down we will never come here again, we spent over $500 in a single night and had the worst possible service and experience ever imagined. Very disappointed because the place itself is nice and has an indoor and outdoor section. Goodbye Barcode! read more

I went 3 times here, and every time is worse than the last time, they had Ace and the big area with the pool closed trying to fit everybody in a small space for a DJ! It was overcrowded at a point that you could barely moved, you had the hookah service, security and other staff passing every 2 minutes pushing everyone around, drink are overpriced, then you had the "reserved" tables for people that never showed up and it was taking more space making it even worse! Dj was really bad looks like he was trying to keep it PG-13 or something, and the only reason I stayed at least 1 hour it was due to the $20 cover fee. read more

Came here to see our friend who is a famous house DJ spin on July 3rd. It was clear from the second we walked in that most of the staff HATED the patrons. A girl who was checking tickets at the door around 6pm literally screamed in agony for having to do her job (yes screamed like a two year old twice). If they hate this crowd so much why did they book it and why does she work there??? We were treated pretty poorly once the event ended at 9pm and the same ticket girl charged us an additional 20 dollars for us just sticking around for an extra hour to finish our drinks. Apparently the club becomes a Latin music club after 9pm and instead of encouraging us to stay as patrons they all but pushed us out the door. Awesome way to treat patrons and talent. Will encourage booking a different club next time. read more

So since my last review in 2017 i've been to Barcode many of times, even celebrated my birthday in January here! Since then, they've opened up a patio area and a pool so this spot is way bigger than before. Drinks are the usual price, music is great, love that they throw out props on the dance floor such as balloons, glow sticks, etc. So glad Barcode has expanded, keep up the good work! read more

I came here to celebrate my cousins birthday not too long ago & i was in pure awe at the customer service , i drove 1 hour to this poorly managed establishment to only be denied entry at the door bc i greeted my friend who was the birthday girl in a hyped manner , a young female security guard just looked at me and said nope shes drunk u cant come in . Keep in mind i had just drove an hour to this place and got denied bc i greeted my friend with excitement .. after 15 minutes of pure embarrassment i convinced them i hadn't even had a single sip of alcohol and was just excited to see my friend who was also the bday girl.. they made me super uncomfortable for being excited my whole mood was ruined after that ... this place is not worth it spend your money somewhere thats better managed, kinder, and more established.. they had 17 year old petty girls as security. read more

This was my first time at this bar/club and it will most likely be my last. Unfortunately, we chose to go the night of their grand opening for their pool. First off, waiting in the line to get in was absolutely dreadful because there was no fans or AC. One of the security guards assured us that it would be much cooler inside. Once inside, it was so stuffy I couldn't breathe. The issue wasn't the people around, the issue was that they had no wall or door of any type separating the pool area... so the club was open to the outdoor the entire time. The humidity was really bad in the first room. They had another room downstairs where it was a little cooler but still unbearable after about half an hour. Another issue we had was with the bar downstairs. There was only 2 bartenders tending to everyone around the bar on a busy Saturday night. There was no rotation either; it was like they were focusing their attention on one area of the bar. So someone could be waiting in an unlucky spot for 30 mins, while someone who just walked up on the other side could quickly be serviced. Anyways.. spent the first 30 minutes waiting for a drink and the next 30 sweating profusely. They played mostly Latin music. Wish there was a mix of genres. To sum it all up, left in the first hour I would say. read more

Let me just start off by saying if I could give this place a negative 5 stars I would. HORRIBLE HORRIBLE service. They DO NOT know what customer service is. Staff is extremely rude and have bad attitudes. Unacceptable when you're going to a place to enjoy and spend YOUR money and they act like people come here for free. Owner has to review his staff and tell them this is not the way you treat paying customers. Also took an hour to sit us. They sat multiple parties before and just kept telling us that they were "cleaning" the tables for us. When we were finally sat they threw us to the dungeon all the way towards the back and kept telling us all the other tables were reserved. But when I called to make reservations they told me they did not offer reservations. Something has to be done about this. Really horrible service.

I just wanted somewhere to go where I can grab a bite and a drink. I ordered the Jack Daniels fishbowl ($20) and it was sugary and it lacked any JD in this beverage. I stuck to appetizers so I got the chicken fingers and fries and loaded fries. The chicken fingers did not come with any dipping sauce and the fries were so bland. The loaded fries seems as if the took frozen fries from a bag, dumped nacho cheese and fake bacon and placed it in the microwave. If you attempted to take just 1 fry, the whole stack of fries will move! There were blots of sour cream on the mountain of gross. Since it was a Monday I thought the servers would be more attentive because it was practically empty, but she took an excessive amount of time to take our order and deliver the drinks. The bathrooms where neat and clean read more

Came here to watch a football game due to their large TV (it was made up of 8 smaller screens). 3 of those screens did not work, so I could not watch the game. I tried to go to another TV but that did not work either. Secondly I asked the bartender what she had on draft, she listed the beers, and I asked for a Stella which she than brought out in a can. I had said draft so I was confused. I asked her what the situation was, but she didn't answer or understand (not sure which). Probably won't go here again. read more

Decided to go to Barcode on a Friday night, 10/4/19 to have some drinks and a bite to eat. Now, I haven't been to Barcode in about a year or two and the experience definitely was not the same. The drinks and food were still pretty good, we ordered 2 bulldogs, a mango margarita, coconut shrimp, crab cakes and mini cheeseburger sliders- all were tasty and just right. The service however was HORRIBLEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!! After being seated at the bar it took us about 15 mins to even be acknowledged and receive a menu. We then had to literally wave our hand and shout to get the bartenders attention so that we could place our order. There were two female bartenders at opposite sides of the bar and unfortunately the one where we were seated was ridiculously inattentive, she was on her phone and just seemed so unenthusiastic. The only reason I'd return back to barcode is for the food, drinks and atmosphere/music. If I based it on the customer service, I would never go back there!!!!! read more
