    Friendly Bartenders, this business is a piece of history with a bar that was brought here in the early 1900's by steamboat.

    Fun Evening of Darts & Coors Lite In A Genuine Honky-Tonk Bar!…read more SITREP There are other bars in St. Maries, but not many. And this is the ONLY bar you will want to go if in the mood for fun. THE SETUP They got darts (which cousin Dale and I availed ourselves of mightily), they have billiards (which the locals made good use of), and they got a bitchen jukebox which will let you "pull up" from a national digital catalogue for only a few tokens more. So an evening of Metallica, Def Leppard, Joan Jett and Sisters of Mercy (*cranked up* and enjoyed by everyone in the bar), Coors Lite and Darts was a great way to decompress and - for cousin Dale and I - a great escape the geriatric-set of relatives (our parents and their siblings) back at the homestead! OWNER-BARTENDRESS After changing hands a few times over the last few times, the ownership has settle nicely in the bar manager's hands and she is a very friendly, receptive person, and excellent bartender in her own right. PATRONS Mainly locals. [Cause...who else would be in St. Maries?] So there is a plethora of lumberjacks, logging-truck drivers, mill wrights, and everyone else associated one way or the other in this Potlatch Timber company town, as well as the townspeople from the associated businesses. Put another way, cousin Dale and I stuck out like sore thumbs. BUT....they didn't care, and since we were associated to the Fountain Bay homestead, they were downright friendly. PRO-TIP Park on the side streets, and head home on the other adjacent parallel streets so the bored sheriff doesn't try to tag you walking to your car on the main drag in front of the bar and driving away. [COUNTER-POINT: I can't and won't invalidate the experience of the only other reviewer of this business, other than to say, their situation was clearly a dining experience during the day, whereas cousin Dale's & my experience was solely the bar experience at night. So literally, "Night & Day" perspectives.] THE LOWDOWN A great little bar in the middle of nowhere (almost)! [Closing Note: on the survey tool that seems to come up with the most inane questions, I answered "Formal Jacket Required", cause that would go over REAL WELL with loggers & lumberjacks.] ;)

    Worst experience ever. Went there on easter and had a ham dinner. It was tough and dried out. And…read moreeverything tasted microwaved including the ham. Never again. On easter of all days.
