Wow!!! I am fairly new to the neighborhood and decided to try this local bar. My mistake. I came…read morein when the bar was almost empty and the owner was (as I was informed from the only other customer there) training a new bartender. The way he was talking to (or in my opinion berating) her was totally unacceptable in my book! You could see it in her face and shortly later she came up and apologized 'to me' for what 'I had to witness'. SHe was so nice and I felt so sorry for her!! imho there was nothing she did or i was witness to that deserved such treatment. I don't normally write reviews, but i felt i had to for this guy and this business. Do yourself a favor and go somewhere else. This guy needs to learn how to treat his staff or women period!!!

This bar has been around this location on 23 for YEARS. It's been called different names throughout…read morethe years (Brew Stirs previously), but apparently interior has remained the same. This is a small and intimate neighborhood bar located at the end almost in the back of the strip. Due to the small size, there's no kitchen so no food except for on a nice day when someone brings over a grill and starts grilling out burgers and hot dogs. However, Slick Whiskers is made up of great and friendly bartenders that know how to sling up some serious drinks. The crowd seems to be filled with welcoming and pleasant regulars, so newbies such as myself felt welcomed. There's a jukebox, 1 pool table ($1.25 to play I believe), 1 dart board, and a few other games. There's a few TVs inside and outside. They have a pretty nice patio with multiple chairs. On the weekends I believe they have a DJ and occasionally karaoke. On the holidays they hold fun events and definitely know how to celebrate them. I've been coming here for several months now. Always end up having a great time!

I am the newest fan of The Pub Out Back thanks to the best bartender on Tuesdays, Jim. I was…read morebrought to The Pub Out Back twice now by my friend and loved the cozy, friendliness vibe of the bar. I had Jim make me three drinks last night and all were made to perfection and I really enjoyed my time at this bar. The environment at The Pub Out Back is very chill and has regulars that come and everyone knows everyone. This is definitely the kind of bar I look for when wanting a quick drink with friends. They do not have food but there is a pizza place that they can order food for you that will deliver. Last night, I got some French fries and it showed up on my bill. I loved not having to order the food myself and deal with the hassle of getting it delivered.

TLDR; had to dispute fraudulent activity because staff didn't return my credit card in a timely…read moremanner and supposedly proceeded to leave it sitting on the bar for public access even though I had already walked away. For clarity, this was my first time at this bar, so I was unsure of their usual practices. Female bartender took my initial order and provided drinks. I gave her my card and indicted I wanted to keep my tab open, she processed it on the terminal, I received a notification of the charge, and waited a few minutes before not receiving my card back before she went to make another customer's drinks. I didn't question this because some bars still keep cards for open tabs, so no problem right? Nope! Went back up over an hour later to order another drink; male bartender couldn't find my open tab. After finally going back and forth a couple times, he located my card then blamed me for leaving my card on the bar. I tried to explain I never received it back after keeping my tab open and he said "I don't have time to argue" then proceeded to just walk away. At that time, I also ordered 2 waters, and he said "water is at the end of the bar". Sir, if you are too lazy to ensure your patrons are not too drunk, especially when someone is specifically asking for water to help out other patrons, then you should not be a bartender nor be working anywhere in customer service. As someone with bartending experience, I always tip well to fellow bartenders, but that interaction immediately put it to 0 due to the sheer audacity that bartender had towards his patron. Anyway, the fraudulent activity comes in because between my initial drink order and my second drink order, there was another charge that occurred when my card was apparently left on the bar for anyone to grab. The fraudulent charge was over 20 minutes after my initial charge. The really interesting thing is that I was actually able to get my card back after this whole debacle, which means after the fraudulent purchase the bartenders finally decided to pick my card up and store it safely. I already contacted my credit card company to cancel the fraudulent transaction and replace my card, but I will be contacting the bar tomorrow to further investigate these circumstances. This clearly raises the concern that the bartenders are untrustworthy, primarily because I believe the only reason they would have been able to hold my card after the fraudulent charge is if they had used it themselves and assumed I was too drunk/oblivious to notice any extra charges and figured I would think I bought them myself. This is obviously hypothesis, but I doubt anyone stupid enough to use someone else's credit card would be smart enough to also leave it sitting on the bar so they don't get caught.

Over 60 beers on tap?! You had me at 60. They also have bourbon tasting with 30+ different kinds…read more My hubby and I love beer so it was a no brainer to check them out. There's an indoor and outdoor patio. Seating is limited due to Covid restrictions. On nice weather days, if you have a dog with you they're permitted on the patio. Good selection of IPA's and sours. Although If you like sours like me, OH sours are very different from a Midwest or east coast sour. Most OH sours use the same bacteria used for making kombucha. Dont know what to get? There's something for everyone. Most beers are out of Ohio but they have choices from everywhere. They have friendly & knowledgeable staff! They don't sell food there but they do have a partnership with the pizzeria across the street--Pizza Primo which is delicious! The bartender can add the pizza to your tab and the pizzeria will bring it right over.
