They always have something going on -- from hilarious comedy nights to super fun karaoke nights that keep the energy up all night. I love that they have multiple fire pits and close parking. They also have Dumpling Queen on sight, absolutely amazing and honestly some of the best I've had. The drinks, vibe, and friendly staff made the whole experience even better. Definitely one of my favorite places downtown and I can't wait to come back!

So if you like the Smokiness of a dive bar, going home smelling like an ashtray, and hanging with older cool people is your thing than you're home here. I think there's better choices within walking distance. It would be nice if the owner didn't respond with a snarky comment and maybe took constructive criticism, fix your exhaust system and I would happily give you a 4 rating for an authentic dive bar. As you can tell by the owners response they don't care and not going to change. Staff are friendly, and at least the one bartender isn't asleep behind the bar (maybe they switched him out or I came on a day he wasn't there). I'll give it a 2 star rating because it looks like they're cleaning up and painting a bit, but it really should be a one. EP Listening Lounge is clean 1 block away Ryan's is a dive bar, a bit clampish for my taste but whatever Vassar Lounge has lots of parking and pool tables, but more than walking distance I think there's a new scene happening off 6th street or is that 4th, new changes down there.

Pinball machines are cared for and worth checking out if you're a fan, often tournaments on Friday nights. 2 pool tables to go along with that. Only caveat is it can get pretty packed on event nights and if you're a pool player you're gonna want the table closest to the front door or your games will be pretty tight. Drinks are sanely priced and bar staff is always nice to me, even when I'm just there playing pinball.

The bar owner is also this way- she is a joy and largely the reason this place became my favorite haunt. Over time, my desire to visit and spend money here has waned. On multiple occasions, we've sat at the bar for 30-45 minutes with a sparse crowd, not asked once if we'd like a drink. When it's busy, I can understand waiting. Bartenders work hard and we prefer to tip in recognition of that. However, of all the bars we visited today, this was the only one we had to get pushy at for drinks. I don't want to have to shout at my bartender for their attention after I've been sitting to get a drink when literally no one else is ordering. I've spent months/years going to this place religiously. I likely won't be back. Please get your service to where it used to be. Not all your bartenders are this way. Their personal distaste for me (apparently) shouldn't be the reason you lose business. I used to talk this place up. Recommendations won't be coming from me anymore.

They have karaoke on Friday nights and the best part is you actually get a turn to sing unlike West 2nd Street Bar. West 2nd Street Bar is always crawling with drunk 21 year olds screaming at the top of their lungs, and you almost have to bribe the DJ $20 to just be able to sing within the hour. I like the Library so much better because of this reason. The drink prices are not bad either. I love me a good Moscow Mule and the bartender makes them right. The hookah is not bad priced as well. Only $20 and it lasts us for about an hour and half and they are very attentive in making sure its not harsh and the coals are being turned. Overall, a great dive bar for playing pool, testing your voice at karaoke or just wanting to chill to have a drink and play pool. I recommend this place to anyone over 25 looking for great bar spot!

What really stood out for me was the non-alcoholic selection. It wasn't an afterthought. There were legit NA options beyond the usual one token choice, which made it easy to hang out and still feel included. The decor is part of the fun. It leans fully into the kitschy, slightly ridiculous bar aesthetic in a way that feels intentional and self-aware. There's a lot to look at, a lot to laugh at, and it adds to the overall experience rather than distracting from it. Easy place to post up, take it all in, and enjoy the energy.
