The wife and I were in town and had come to see Not Quite Brothers (Iowa) which have a phenomenal mixed set list that covers more decades than their age would suggest. In fact, I'm pretty sure the majority of the crowd were older than the band. Regardless, a good time was had by all. I'm pretty sure this Saturday night show was wrapped up and had a bow put on it by 10 or 10:30pm. I would totally come see a show here again and would totally see NQB again. One interesting thing to note about NQB, is that once they hit the stage, they played non-stop until they were done, no breaks, came back for an encore set and done \m/

This time we opted for upstairs seating and went downstairs to grab a couple of drinks just prior to the show starting. The beverage service is generally prompt even though at times there can be a long lines. The biggest joy is hearing these small bands perform and hoping for them that they make it to the big time!

I waited there about 3 minutes and finally someone came out and she said it's $105.50 & cash only for the karaoke. I go to the ATM to withdraw cash. It is now 9:35, I pay, she gives me change, then she says you're 10 minutes over so there's an additional fee. I said no ma'am I was out here at 9:28, nobody was here initially and I had to go get money to pay you. She said no, you started at 7:25, It is now 935 and so you owe for 10 more minutes. I asked how much is 10 More minutes and she said five dollars. I'm just confused why she didn't charge that amount to begin with and why she waited for me to get the money out of the ATM to change the price. In terms of food, everything tasted fine, but we asked for plates to share multiple times and didn't receive any, and when I went out and asked for plates for us to share they handed me two and then turned away (there were 5 people, all the food is family style). The karaoke itself was fun with a good selection of songs, but the last minute grab for $5 more really left us with a sour feeling.

It would have been nice to have 2 bartenders working the main room during the WI Leather Pride event I'm not sure what happened but the bartender they had was literally running the whole time trying to keep up.

And politely ask for families to close tabs & exit for the next adult drag show to start at 9:30pm. I really want this place to continue its offerings so hear me out (below) on why I chose a low star review). Drinks are super reasonable, just as other review posted. And bar staff (and everyone else there for that matter) are extremely friendly and respectful. They offer free popcorn on the backside of the bar (help yourself)! And pizza for the late night cravings. The reason for my 3 stars (should really be 2 but I truly want to promote this place in hopes they keep it going and can pay for a deep cleaning... lol). I get it's a late night spot, but I'm very conscious when it comes to bathrooms. I don't think these have been cleaned in years. If they weren't half as bad as they were at 7pm -- I'd be willing to give it 3.5 stars. Clean them up right and I'd give it an EASY 5 stars. I hope the owners/managers hear me out on this one!
