It's 1970's-dim inside, with outdated decor and local regulars kickin' it with other regulars. Nobody's dressing up or putting on a show to display social status and trendiness. A pretty unassuming Midwest bunch, and they were friendly and glad to speak with us. The bar itself is my favorite kind - a large horseshoe. It makes a lot of room to be seated, and you can see people on the other side in some places, for conversation. Pool tables appear to be in good repair. There's a smoking deck with tables out back which overlooks KY3 next door and a nice lawn - very pleasant out there. I had 3 pints of Bud, with tomato an the side, my daughter had 3 or 4 well vodka-waters with lime and the bill was just over $21 on a Tuesday afternoon. I really liked it because it was so relaxed. Like slipping on an old shoe. Like going to a friends barbeque and there's friends there you just don't know yet. I kind of wish I lived closer.

I'm not a small man and at 6'5 I am perpetually bumping my head. They do have Karaoke, but not the largest selection of songs ever. I mostly go when my friends are going and that always makes every place better. IMHO. On Tuesdays go upstairs to the Gravel Bar for an all you can eat Taco bar, by the lady that used to own Lili's Diner downtown. Delicious.

Advertised as an "everybody welcome"-"come as you are" establishment, the Tipsy Turtle will not disappoint the diversity seeking youth and youth lovers of tomorrow. Boys who like girls, girls who like boys, boys who like boys, girls who like girls, boys who like boys and girls, and girls who like girls and boys are all welcome. This established has been decorated entirely by its patrons with $1 bills and welcomed graffiti. The drink menu is well suited to its environment and its patron's pocket books. My only suggestions for this wild rompus room is beginning an open mic night separate from the karaoke night. As long as you are mostly clothed and leave your judgements at the door, you will feel comfortable and enjoy the ride.

Yes, it's run down and a little gross, but that's part of the appeal: it looks like a place Social Distortion or Anthrax might have played when they were getting their start. When you view the grungy nature of the bar through that lens, it's easy to see how its filth connects modern music fans to the intellectual roots of the artists they enjoy. That said, it does have a couple of less desirable qualities, chief among which is the degree of preference given to well-known locals over out-of-towners. This trend is no secret, as made obvious by the plethora of other reviews here saying as much - but it's still a relatively minor nit to pick about a bar that's otherwise in good (if fading) company. Come here when you're looking for a no-frills, down and dirty good time. Avoid it when you want to sip $15 martinis at a high-end bar with trendy decor.
