I will always review a proper dive bar with Campari on the shelf…read more Had two Negronis and I have no proof as the camerawoman was too slow in this case. This place was a total random date find for me, but glad I stopped in. Everything from the rowed Xmas lights on the ceiling, to the custom avant-garde wooden bar top speaks late 60s/early 70s cozy-chic to me. On top of this, the music and clientele rocks and, as a bonus, the interior is decked out in Rat Pack movie memorabilia -- apropos as the spot is, I imagine, named for the 1955 Sinatra film! Stop in and say hello to the killer bartenders.

Because there was no…read morebeer on tap, it was a Corona from a refrigerator & my thoughts were that I could go across the street to Target to get beer from a refrigerator for cheaper. However, when this guy invited me inside on Wed. 9-6-23,, it was a different story. It was very welcoming & friendly. The cold beers (Corona, Dos Equis, Modelo) in bottles were delicious, especially on a hot day, & at a discounted price during happy hour. The bartender (the owner's wife) kindly made me some free popcorn. There was a jukebox playing Mexican music & it was entertaining to see someone singing along to some songs. I enjoyed my time there & was thankful that my friend had invited me. I really like him & liked it even more watching him play pool & hit the ball really hard at times. And I learned some more Spanish too. So my mind changed from 1 to 5 stars. Thanks for your generosity & thanks for treating him well!

There's nothing quite like this spot as there's a regular circuit of new and seasoned comics trying shit out and rotating hosts each week. Happy hour deals are fantastic and Steve (owner) makes a mean marg! Mango marg with a tajin rim and a regular marg with a salt rim gave me enough liquid courage to do my set tonight.

The place was the sh*t. I've come here several times over the past couple years and it's more and more dead at the restaurant every time. The waitresses are absolutely dreadful. Every request is forgotten or takes 20 mins to arrive at the table. When we arrived we waited 20 mins for a waitress. We asked for some sauce, they forgot. We ordered a pizza, which was delivered to the wrong table. When we wanted to leave, the check took 20 mins as well. Now I have a crying baby and I'm waiting for them to try and split the check two ways and I eventually give up knowing that the task is too much for them to handle and just pay it all on one card. We had to track down the waitresses multiple times. It's like they have NO ability to anticipate the needs of their customers. "They ordered, pizza, maybe I should bring some plates". Nope! "They'll probably want their sauce before the food item is ICE COLD". Nope! Anytime we went into the restaurant the girls were on their phones. There were five tables in the restaurant tonight so there really was no excuse. I think this will be the last time I ever go to this restaurant. Unfortunately, the reputation of the old Congregation Ale House kept me coming back even when time after time, the service was abysmal, however, now that Congregation's former glory is thoroughly tarnished I can honestly say that I will not be coming back and I encourage everyone else to do the same. Quality like this cannot be tolerated. Travis, the former owner, would be ashamed of this fall from grace. R.I.P. Congregation Ale House

As usual, the service was very good. We started with two Clamato Bloody Mary's ($6.50/ea.) and an appetizer Sampler Platter ($17) with potato skins, chicken wings, and fries instead of onion rings. In the evening, we got two Tito's Clamato Bloody Mary's ($8.50/ea.). All drinks were well made, reasonably priced, and a little lighter than those made with a 100% tomato juice mix. Callahans has a pool table, plenty of TVs, occasional live music, and great staff and fun, friendly crowd. It isn't a fancy place, but food and drinks are good, and the atmosphere is usually lively. I recommend that you give it a try.

If bartending were an Olympic sport, Gen would already have her gold medal mounted above the bar…read more She doesn't just pour drinks -- she orchestrates experiences. Gen has that rare gift of being everywhere at once: your glass never empties, but somehow she also has time to crack a joke, swap a story, and make you feel like you're the only person in the room. Her style? Effortlessly cool. The kind where you wonder if she was born behind a barstool with a cocktail shaker in her hand. Smooth, attentive, and utterly unflappable, she manages the chaos of a busy bar with the calm of a Zen master and the charm of your funniest friend. They just don't teach service like this anymore -- it's an art form. And Gen? She's Picasso with a pour spout. If The Wheel Bar has a secret ingredient, it's Gen. Long may her brand of bar wizardry live on.

The place is smallish, has one pool table, a couple TVs, but no draught beer, food, or Happy Hour. They do offer karaoke on Wednesdays and either Fridays or Sundays (can't recall) and the crowd was thrilled to be belting out their favorite tunes. Parking is available in front, in back, and on street. NOTE: They do allow smoking inside. There's a good selection of bottle beers, but nothing on tap. Of course, you can get shots and simple cocktails, but they didn't have the ingredients to make an Old Fashioned or Manhattan. Drink prices were very reasonable ($13 for a Malibu & Coke and a Mudslide). We asked about food and were told that on occasion one of the women working there will bring something in or fire up a grill, but it's not a regular thing. Overall, it's a fun neighborhood bar with friendly service, and an intimate place to gather, hang out, and meet/make new friends. We'll be back.
