I was really hoping for a new and unique bar in town. I got new and unique, but good? No. I wasn't impressed. The place looks nice enough with the special lighting and the plush seating areas , but things went down hill badly when we ordered our drinks...a Cape Cod and Screwdriver with Tito's vodka. First of, it's not a real confidence builder when your barkeep has to look up how to make two of the most basic drinks around. Not impressed. Then, he made the drinks with well vodka instead of Tito's. He could have offered to let us have the drinks while he mixed what we asked for, but instead he dumped them out and started over. Just not a very good first impression. OK. Yeah, I'm an older gay man and I wasn't expecting a gay bar experience, but my friend and I were uncomfortable being there. It wasn't obvious in anyway but it just felt non-gay friendly. To all you straights, that won't matter to you, but to my gay friends, it wasn't the most welcoming of atmospheres. See what you think. Maybe your experience will be better. I won't be back. Sorry. I wanted to like Bart, but I didn't. read more

Video games and board games to play, music to listen to, drinks are good, and casual dressing is always a plus. If I lived closer I'd be here every Friday night! read more

Fun bar to make a stop to in Palm Springs with the group. The vibe is very 90's music. The bartenders make AMAZING drinks and the prices are decent as well. We ordered 4 cozies drinks an it turned out to be $24. We asked the Dj to play a special request an even though he was hesitant he did so anyway which we appreciated deeply. It also felt like a very safe environment having having the security scope everything out frequently. read more

As a Coachella Valley native, I have done my fair share of exploring the valley for great scenes. My boyfriend and I heard of this place from a mutual friend, who understands our love for crazy/Tim Burtenesque art, so we decided to give it a shot! Formally a gay bar, then a lame bar, these guys had some work to do! I could not believe how rad it was from the second I walked in! The lighting was bad ass, the seating was great, there were video game consoles available to be played, old school joystick machines, and the bar was long so it gave plenty of room for people ordering drinks. More importantly, the bartenders, Rambo and Collin, were the sweetest. The entire place was decked out in badass art. Nearly every wall was something awesome to see, and they even sold shorts with some of the art work printed directly on them! It doesn't end there, though! Somehow, it was also Battleship night. That's right! Battleship the board game!! 8 dollar entry into the tournament pool, and for every ship sunk, you had to take a shot. 8 bucks for a fun tournament AND drinks included?! I'm in! Rambo was even so sweet as to get me a chaser! Long story short, it was a great way to meet other people! Oh, and because I won the tournament, they gave me 50 bucks!! Which was way rad! Loved this place so much that we came back the next weekend and brought friends who also LOVED the place!! After that, I moved to Santa Clarita, but since I frequent the desert, I make it a point to go there any time my boyfriend and friends want to go out and do something. Mind you, my boyfriend and friends live on the other side of the valley, about a 20 min drive and we STILL would rather drive there than any other place! Anyways, last weekend we went again and this time it was a beer pong tournament. My friend and I won 100 bucks!!!! BUT THE BEST PART was meeting the owner and his dad, Kelly, who is just about the coolest guy ever. We got to talking business and he kindly grabbed me a drink-on the house. This place is one of a kind. If you don't at least try it out, you're doing yourself an injustice. Don't expect a huge crowd, because it is new as of right now! But Rambo, Collin, and Kelly are definitely people you want to know!!! Side note: they remember their customers so well that they even tagged me on a post on Instagram to defend my titles. WILL NEVER GO ANYWHERE ELSE AS A DESTINATION BAR!! Side note again: they basically have every board game you can imagine, too (free of use)! What's not to love?! read more

Lousy service on their tournaments and they don't know how to control their music volume. Rambo doesn't know how to play to the customers, totally against customer service. Overall 1 star, don't recommend. read more

Out of town guy visited this spot. Went here on a Monday night it was slow but we had fun. Bartender, Mr. Rambo was awesome. The crowd was awesome. It was not even 10 people in the entire bar but we all had a great time. Rambo customer service is A1. cool vibe, positive energy and good music. Next time I am in Palm Springs I am stopping here always. They have earned my business. You the man, Rambo. read more

It's Monday night, it's empty ... maybe it gets better on weekends. Rambo looks like a samurai LoL. The place is really nice as far as decor. There's one guy with a fuzzy looking beard sitting at end of bar and he's got 2 blondes on each side of him...he's wearing a black vest that says Misfits. On the flat screen, they got guitar hero on pause...looks like a PS4 system. The music is from a computer playlist. Outside are some people playing pool. I guess Stagecoach took its toll on the locals. Looks like more locals are arriving ... 3 dudes and one couple that is in patio....10:20 pm. read more

Grand opening and it was the coolest bar in Palm Springs in my opinion. Really cool art on display from tim burton and many others and awesome atmosphere and staff love it!!! 805 on draft! read more

See all

I went there last night April 24 bartender had a lousy attitude got my drinks he did some kind of weird hand movement and expect me to know what he meant I asked him what do you mean by that. Long story but it came down to him started talking down to me syaing he was goong to kick me out that when all you had to do was just tell me the total bartenders needs to be checked read more

Love the bar, drink are good, love the art and events, mostly locals which is why I like it the most. Music/DJ sucks, music doesn't match the vibe our crowd. read more

Literally the coooolest place!! Bartender was also really nice! Would definitely love to come here again

Gross. They're lucky 0 stars wasn't an option because that's what they deserve. They have the most garbage people controlling music. Don't come here unless you like hearing speakers cut in and out and screeching and loud grinding and crashing sounds. There's a live drummer but Tyga playing over the system at the same time? I'm so confused. This place is always trying to do innovative things but fall short every time. Sorry Bart, you guys are a low budget, broke, watered down version of BAR on palm canyon. You just added a T to the name? Gross drinks. Shit system. Bad bartenders. No one paying attention to guests, just paying attention to their friends who came in to visit. Y'all should change the name to FART because this place stinks.. read more

Bart is always fantastic. The staff is very friendly and the vibe is very relaxed. I always come here when I'm in Palm Springs.

Sweet bar I was waiting for something like this in the valley. It really is unique. Since it's new it's really not that busy but when the word gets out about this place it's soon to be packed. Cheap drinks and great Dance floor. Free pool table as well. Can't get better than that. O and almost forgot to mention the bartender is great. He recommended a drink to me and it's now my favorite beverage. Great job guys. A+++ read more

This place has it done right. Great staff, atmosphere & attitude. Very comfortable vibe and endlessly intriguing decor. I'm only in town about once a year, but thus will always be a stop! read more

This is a great place to bring friends for a fun night out. The staff members there are friendly, courteous, and they know how to make an excellent cocktail. The general vibe in this bar is reflective of the 90s culture that most millennials grew up. They have Nintendo 64s for you to play while you are having a drink at the bar, there are many 90s pop culture references in the bar, and they often have live performances by local musicians at the dance floor. Not to mention, they have plenty of board games such as Jenga for you to play with your friends. Most people who visit Bart tend to be Millennials who are fans of alternative music, anime, and living a bohemian lifestyle. If that is the kind of crowd you desire to be around with, this is the place you want to visit. I also like how you can step outside the bar near the balcony area to get some fresh air and be able to have an audible conversation. Parking is also not a problem and you can easily walk to the near by Castanedas or McDonalds if you get hungry. read more

My favorite bar to go to when I'm in Palm Springs. The art is really cool in this place. There is a fun section to dance and the music is 10/10. There are also a ton of board games and jenga and couches to sit on. The best part of this bar is the Mario cart and game cube games. Any place with Mario cart gets 5 stars for me..... read more

I would give this bar a zero if I could. The man with the buzz cut/longer hair and tattoo was an absolute sweetheart but the woman with dark brown hair and the man with the longer dark blonde hair/Hawaiian shirt was completely sexist against me while they gave my male cousin next to me a drink. I asked politely for a drink and they ordered me water seeing that I was a female who look "intoxicated". The male asked me how many fingers he was holding up. Obviously I answered correctly. I feel discriminated against and truly believe that they talked Ill about me in front of my face. I confronted them and they disregarded me for more than 10 minutes. I got upset and no one seemed to care but to call the security who saw me as nothing but a usual visitor. I am extremely disappointed. I will not accept sexism. read more

So came out just to get a change of scene, and im the kind of person that only cares about how im being treated where im spending my hard earned, ramboo is more than a good bartender, hes a great person with fucking incredible coustomer service, this my new spot thanks to my man boo read more

Eh its ok. Total hipster bar. Nothing wrong with that. But noone looks like they are having fun. Because they cant show emotion. Band was ok, slow music for a Saturday night. Feels like a hiped coffee bar *snaps fingers read more

JASMINE !!!! Was very attentive, Kind and patient. She re made my drink NO PROBLEM. She kept her cool and made and got drinks out quickly. Definitely will have her make my drinks from now on. Thank you!! read more

I decided to check this place again now that it's under new ownership and was not that impressed. I'll admit the place has some cool art to look at, but I was looking for a place to hang out, get my drink on, and socialize. The bar was empty and stayed that way. The bartender was obviously new and it was almost painful to watch him novicely mix a couple of my orders. Also there was no attempt to engage in conversation that might have gotten me to stay. Thanks, but no thanks Bart! read more

I visiting Palm Springs last year and I was looking to try a new spot . And I found this place , the vibe I got was good and super chill . I was very Surprise they have bored games and a pool table. The art work is pretty Interesting read more

The owner Micheal is super rude and also waters down the drink cause he's the bartenders as well. Never going back to this place.

Cheap drinks, cool vibes, amazing bartenders, great for groups, awesome for dates, def not like the other bars in Palm Springs which is mainly for old people. Bart is a cool ass bar man A read more

I love this bar, been coming here for about 2 years now. I know the staff and they're all very friendly. I like that the owner helps out his employees, especially on busy nights, that shows dedication. Drinks are good, prices are great, environment is comfortable and fun with many things to do. Lastly, I like that they have theme nights and throw various events hosting different genres of music. read more

Best dance spot I've been to, the vibes and the music specially when my friends from Ocho ojos play im there, only thing i would suggest is the bar area, they need to have me re bartenders they make their drinks delicious but usually there's 2-3 bartenders trying to serve the whole lounge. Other that I suggest you go and visit. It's so fun!! read more

My wife loves dancing and the club environment. I love punk rock music and venues so it's damn near impossible for us to find somewhere we can both enjoy until now! Barts has boardgames and classic arcade games which was an awesome way to start the night. Then, we went on to the dance floor where a DJ was spinning music we both enjoyed. Bartenders were chill and the happy hour 7-10 this last Friday which was great. I even forgot my debit card and they held it for me the next day. 5 stars for sure. read more

Love this place. That space has had its share of duds. This place has lots of varied seating, a decent dance floor, great outdoor patio you can drink and smoke on, drink specials and my fave... board games. Highly recommend. They also are fairly active on Facebook, letting you know what's coming up. read more

This bar is awesome. The bartenders are very friendly. The place has a great atmosphere. The art on the walls looks amazing. They also have killer music. They have a pool table, videogames and board games to play while you hang out. Check it out once and I'm sure you will go back for more. read more

Where shall I start? The music, the board games, classic video games, puzzles, drinks and the people make this the most awesome spot in the desert. I can't wait to go back. read more

We came here to celebrate a birthday and was this place was recommended by a friend. They had several DJs that night. They were all pretty good but one just blew us away - all of his songs were on point. We had so much fun!! Will def come back when he is back. I think his name was Arox? A-rocks? Well- he definitely rocks!!! read more

Dope spot, good environment, right by santanas so when ur ready to eat at 2am its right across the parking lot, djs every weekend a must visit spot read more

Enjoyed myself here on a Tuesday played some jenga and the chavelas were not to shabby.

I simply love this place. I love the scenery, the games, the chill staff, over everything! Friendly environment and what not also like 3 mins away from my house. read more

I went a couple days ago when my old roommates came from LA to visit. I instantly fell in love with the atmosphere. Not only do they have an assortment of video/board games but they also have a pool table for anyone to play. Pricing of the drinks are resonable. read more

Julian was the rudest most condescending person I'm a hospitality manager in the area and he wouldn't let my daughter in and she's 25 and showed him 5 pieces of identification. I send customer to local bars and I would never let guest encounter such negligent arrogance. His power trip attitude was beyond abusive and patronizing. He was ignorant and uninformed. If you want you business to close it's doors keep him on and watch your profits decline. Women have been standing up to this behavior and it's not the 80's to prohibit us from entering a public establishment. I wanted to call the police. He was perhaps racially profiling us because we were not Hispanic. Rude, arrogant rude. My daughter was almost killed in the Nashville Tornado this week and I did not appreciate this random accusation that my daughter had a false form of identification. His training was obviously incorrect as I gave birth to my child in 1994 which makes her 1994. read more

Excellent place! Just stopped in for a quick drink with my wife and friends for the first time the other night and had a great experience! The bar itself has a real cool vibe to it. The music was good, the drinks were well made, and the service was fantastic. Like I said, we stopped in to have one quick drink and ended up staying almost until close. Might end up being our new watering hole! read more

Rambo and Ben are cool as shit. Good drinks. Rad vibes. Every 80's/90's kids dream bar. Go in and see why!

Very cool unique spot!from old school games to board games to the art on every wall i loved this atmosphere so much. The lighting was dark yet you could see and enjoy yourself. The people werent loud obnoxious people. And theu had dragon ball z playing on the tvs lol would definitely recommend this place to people who love intriguing things. read more
