The bar/restaurant has that cool roadside local bar feel. They had karaoke the night we went and it there was a fun energy in the place.

We didn't have any issues around 10pm. Seating: An intimate lounge for the most part, bar seating, group seating, room for about 50 people total. Vibes: Downtown Palm Springs is an eventful place. Small enough that it's close to the type of vibe you need. As for the space itself, it has a dim lighting, a tv for sports or popular shows if you just want to zone out. You have your usual singers and a good ebb and flow of people trying to catch a song. Karaoke is definitely the heart of this place. Whether someone is absolutely crushing it or having fun with friends, it's a supportive place with good vibes all around. DRINKS Vodka Soda with Lime (Recommend) A simple drink that gets the job done. Cold, refreshing, and well balanced. Just a solid cocktail to help you relax and enjoy the vibes. CUSTOMER SERVICE Friendly, attentive, and easygoing. DJ is great and same as the servers. TL;DR OVERALL 4.5 Stars. Good drinks, welcoming people, and one of those neighborhood bars that doesn't have to be expensive and flashy. Great space where people can laugh, sing, meet new friends, and enjoy a night out. Enjoy! TIPS * Karaoke is the main attraction--don't be afraid to sign up for a song. * Vibes will come in waves, sometimes it's poppin and sometimes its chill.

We sat outside with our dogs but we did check out the inside. It was very small but it was decorated very nicely. There were maybe 3 tables and maybe 8 bar seats. There is clearly attention to detail when decorating. The inside had red lighting, bamboo, and tiki memorabilia. The drink menu was well put together and had a wide variety of tiki cocktails from the standard tiki drinks to unique house made creations. We ordered the painkiller and a virgin painkiller. They were both very delicious and well crafted. We did have a little mishap with our drinks being forgotten. We arrived at 8:35pm, we were greeted promptly and had our order taken with 10 minutes but we didn't receive our drinks until 9:10. We understand mistakes happen but it was unfortunate to have to sit there for 30 minutes without our drinks because we didn't want to be out super late. Overall, the place has delicious cocktails and lovely decor.

Reservations are a must at Bootlegger Tiki whose slight square footage affords them only a handful…read moreof booths & a dozen bar seats. Glowing red & decked out in typical tiki bar decor, Bootlegger Tiki's drink menu, like many of its kind, is rum heavy. The two drinks I tried -- Blackbeard's Booty with coconut cream & citrus notes, as well as Donn Beach 1934 Zombie with warming spices -- felt like they were lighting my esophagus on fire. Not enjoyable to drink, but perhaps I've always been biased against cocktails that are both too sweet & too strong on the liquor taste. Chill bartenders who did their best to recommend things we would like, but in the end, this spot is one-and-done in my book.

They were all impressed with the burgers and everyone commented with excitement on the curry pickled jalapeno, served on the side. I went out on an edge and tried the double cut pork chop.

Of course I opted for the spicy loaded which almost knocked my socks off!

It gives off a biker bar vibe just by the looks of it. On one visit I asked my buddy if he had ever been to Wooden Nickel. He admitted that he was a bit intimidated by its appearance. I told him, "Well we're going today"! Off we went. My buddy, my wife Becky and me. We headed down the hill. It was about a 10-minute walk to the primitive parking lot. There was a Ford F150 pick-up truck out front with a huge smoker trailer behind it billowing smoke. The air was filled with the wonderful aroma of smoking meats. We walked inside and it was pretty much what we were expecting. Low ceiling, dimly lit, bar seating, a few tables and a couple of pool tables. We bellied up to the bar and were warmly greeted by the bartender. We ordered our drinks, and I noticed a menu on the table. On this day it was smoked meat. Burgers, ribs, tri-tip, chicken - all cooked right out front. When we saw the pit boss emerge from the behind the kitchen door, we were sad that we already had dinner plans. He was a big 'ol dude wearing a BBQ-stained white apron. We just knew that there was legit food exiting that kitchen. Never judge a book by its cover. Wooden Nickel was great. Friendly folks, cool bartender, smoked meat, cold drinks, cheap prices. There's really not much more to ask for. Wooden Nickel. What a joint!

I had an extremely disappointing experience at Hair of the Dog involving my trained service dog…read more When I arrived, the doorman/manager refused to let me enter with my service dog and told me we could sit outside. When I challenged that, he referred me to the owner, Chuck. Chuck came outside and reaffirmed that my service dog had to remain outside. He told me that I could go inside while someone could hold my dog on the deck. After I continued to object, Chuck asked me to show service-dog ID because my dog wasn't wearing a vest. I explained that service dogs are not legally required to wear a vest or carry identification. I happened to have an unofficial service-dog ID with me and showed it to him, but by that point I no longer wanted to give the establishment my business. As I was leaving, I passed the deck and heard Chuck discussing the incident with another man and describing me as unreasonable while saying he wasn't discriminating against anyone. After seeing my dog, the other man commented, "That's a big dog; I wouldn't want it in here either." For clarity, my dog was under my control and was not causing a disturbance. My issue isn't that someone asked the two questions businesses are permitted to ask about a service animal. My issue is that I was initially told my service dog could not accompany me inside, the owner reaffirmed that decision, and only after I repeatedly challenged it did the conversation turn to demanding identification because he wasn't wearing a vest. The ADA does not require service dogs to wear vests or carry service-dog identification. A business also cannot simply require a customer with a service dog to use outdoor seating instead of allowing the dog to accompany the customer inside. I ultimately chose to leave and spend my money elsewhere.
