My boyfriend and I usually go on Friday because of Romana the bartender. She already know what we like to drink. The vibes is good the regular are cool as well overall experience for us has always been great. The Pepprtree isn't for everyone but as long you like listening to good music from the DJ and here for the vibe its good. read more

I came here they were close at 12am and maps showing they are open till 2am and spent money on uber to get its so annoying if they close early then they need to change their time read more

Came here a few weeks ago. The bartender was super nice and generous with the shots. They have darts, beer pong, TV screens, and pool tables which was cool. You can keep busy and drink. Hangout. Cool hidden spot. Plenty of parking read more

I'm calling on the owners to investigate bartender Ramona. I noticed my tab being higher than what I actually ordered when she was running it. When customers keep a tab open, they're trusting the bartender to charge accurately. That trust should not be abused. It appears the totals were inflated beyond the actual drinks ordered, which conveniently results in higher tips when the card is charged. Management should seriously look into Ramona's transactions and receipts. If this issue isn't addressed, I will be reporting the discrepancies to my credit card companies for investigation. Customers deserve honesty when their card is behind the bar. read more

We miss Andrea. This place became a mystery spot and not in the fun way. We heard the Peppertree was newly remodeled so we made a point to plan a Wednesday mid week visit to our favorite bartender Drea . Her mustang was not out front. As to our surprise there was a bartender Tee there we had never seen before . An older lady was guiding her around behind the bar, it was awkward and strange. We didn't want to be rude so we had a drink but the vibes were off and it felt uncomfortable. When we asked about Andrea they both were clueless as to where she was and when or if she would be back. The following Friday was daunting. It's usually packed. The bar was empty and sad. Still now a full week later, same bartender Tee. No Drea . Read other Yelp reviews who had the same experience. Then , in one last attempt we came on Walter's shift who's always knowledgeable and he also knew zero information. It's like she vanished. Been coming here for years. Really hoping to hear where our favorite girl went so we can take our buisiness there and enjoy drinks, hospitality and fun times again. Below are some photos of our previous visits. read more

The Pepper Tree Lounge is hands down our favorite spot in town. My wife and I keep coming back because of the amazing bartenders Andrea and Razor Ramona. They're the heartbeat of this place -- social, kind, hardworking, and genuinely caring about their regulars and new faces alike. You can tell they actually love what they do, and it shows in every drink they make. Most bars are just beer, shots, and the occasional two-ingredient cocktail, but these two have crafted some of the best cocktails I've had at a neighborhood spot. You can taste the effort and skill -- it's a big reason the Pepper Tree draws such a good crowd. The vibe is welcoming, fun, and always feels like home. Shoutout also to Walter, who holds it down in the mornings. He might be a little rough around the edges and serve it up with just half a smile, but he pours a mean cold one and definitely means well. Classic dive bar charm at its best. On Fridays and Saturdays, they even have a food truck out front, 7 Flavors of NOLA, serving up authentic New Orleans cuisine from a local native. The food is fresh, flavorful, and the perfect pairing with a night of drinks. This isn't the fanciest place in town, but it's absolutely better than any other dive you'll find. Come for the drinks, stay for the people, and you'll see why we love it here read more

Great bar. Never really had an issue. Clientele is pretty cool. Bartenders are great. Walter is the best of the male bartenders. Drea is great. Natasha is also great. I don't know about the night crew. I don't like driving in the dark, so I try to leave early. read more

Been coming to this lounge with my friends for years. We come to see our favorite Bartender, Andrea. She gives excellent customer service and makes us feel welcomed. She hasn't been there the past two weeks. No one seems to know what's going on. Other customers were asking for her and left . So we left. We will come back when we see her car. Until then the bar will probably stay empty. read more

Dropped in on a fluke and got great service with a smile that was genuinely hospitable and welcoming. The people were friendly and fun to hang with. My dog was even welcomed. I'd recommend that place, all day. Good people of various nationalities and ages. I'll be back again. read more

I came in here with my coworkers as we always do and both times our favorite bartender Andrea wasn't working. Asked the fill in Bartender where she was and she didn't have an answer, which seemed odd. Andrea always creates a fun environment. Wish someone could let us know if she will be returning. This is our weekly hangout but until she is back I guess we'll be going to Chaplins. read more

When i come to pepper tree Ramona is there and she shows great hospitality! The music selection mid week is diverse and open for selection. The weekend DJs go hard or go home! Food is always a plus, food trucks seasonally and a few restaurants nearby but get there before its too late! read more

Love coming in on Tuesday, thanks to Andrea! She is soo sweet and brings nothing but good vibes. She is quick and always happy to help when I cant figure out what I want! She can also customize any drink you want. Walters pretty great too! Ive only came in a couple times with him but he's pretty good too. I worked at Maggianos so i know good quality service read more

Went on a weekday. Bartender was Ramona. Excellent service. Cant imagine how the weekends go down.

I rate my review based on Ramona. I've been there a handful of times and she's always been CONSISTENT. I appreciate her energy her vibe and her willingness to go above and beyond for customers, myself included. Coming from a bartender perspective she's the real deal. I appreciate you girl, thank you for your consistent hospitality! read more

I have been here several of times with my friends to play pool. She gave us free shots and served us liquor while knowing we were under age I just think it's very unprofessional serving minors. Also due to the fact I got blacked out drunk one day and didn't remember anything She let packs of minor come in 7 people read more

I have been coming to the Pepper Tree for years, off and on. It has its ups and downs, but I truly enjoy when I am here, and Ramona is working. She is pleasant to talk with and pretty attentive to when you're ready for a refill !!! read more

I went on a Friday night with a few friends and family members for a few drinks only to be ignored the entire time when I was asking for a drink. The bartender was too busy exposing her breasts to all the men in the corner and also yelling at multiple customers. Not a very professional bartender. I overheard the men in the corner calling her Romana, she was only serving them and no one else. I would give 0 stars if that were an option. read more

Great bar great people great vibes. Ramona is one of the chillest people behind the bar. She always takes good care of you. Shout out to her. All the stuff she gotta deal with read more

Depends on who is behind the bar. Everyone but Andrea is on point and makes sure the drinks are flowing. Andrea has double charges customers, drinks customers drinks and talks trash about customers after they leave. The woman she was yelling in the bar about is an older who just beat cancer for the second time. It is truly a bad look. I will go back for Walter and Rayna only! read more

Love coming to the Pepper Tree. I always feel welcomed by Andrea and Walter. Great drinks!

Stopped in for a drink and ended up staying for 3 thanks to Andrea (Drea) Not only did she mix up some great cocktails but the conversation was just as smooth. Friendly, attentive, and genuinely passionate about life. Drea made everyone feel like a regular. It's rare to find someone who can juggle a busy bar while still making each guest feel seen and taken care of. Can't wait to come back! read more

The lounge has a great space and great service. Nice cozy lounge the music was not that bad. read more

this is honestly such a cute local spot and there's a lot of people within the area and neighbors that come and hang out there - which made it so homey/cozy vibes. i stopped by recently and really enjoyed my visit. the bartenders were so fun and i had a great time interacting with them/the drinks they made were also really good! if you're in the area, definitely stop by and grab a drink or two!! read more

Costumer service, they need really good bartenders, the girls from Saturday and Friday nights sucks. They are so high on weed that they don't even remember to charge for the drinks, we drink for free The only good bartender here and she is been here for years is ANDREA!! She is the best!! But the other ones they have now, don't know s*** read more

I was there Friday night and the bartender was Ramona , it was kinda chill but Ramona was on point with the service, I left there faded but cool read more

I ve been to this bar a few times, but the last time I went about a week ago was fantastic. Either they switched management, or the owner was approved for a loan to improve the location. The whole location was fixed up, and they did wonders to the outside searing area. It's amazing what a fresh coat of paint and hard work can do. I am very happy with the change. The DJ plays hip hop and a wide variety of multiple genres to appease a diverse crowd. He always feels the vibe and goes with it. At tes you can catch him live streaming the ambiance and his Skills. I cant speak much on the spirits because I normally drink bottled beers, but the bartender was very attentive and successfully managed to satisfy the crowd on a busy Friday night. Great job on the makeover!!!! read more

I been going to PT for years and will not return. Advise all of you to start finding another spot to hang. This place is changed! Make sure to watch your open tabs. Bartender was extremely rude. He presented us with the tab with the counts that was inaccurate and he created a scene. No body from our group questioned him on the tab. It was internal conversation. He was ease dropping and decided to intervene. His behavior was absurd and he seems out of it. Extremely RUDE and not a safe spot for giving your credit card. Would not recommend this if you are looking for a good/decent service. P.S- Kel aka this bartender that post is referring to have been sending me nasty messages here like a stalker which proves how safe is this place and him to be dealing with. Total harassment on top of extremely poor service. Hopefully new owners realize it and discipline him. read more

Little Dive Bar but the crowd is nice and the music is great. Has darts, pool and other games to play. Drinks are pretty good too!

Came here on a Tuesday night and turns out it was karaoke night. When we got there there was about less than 10 people. Given it was 9pm we were ok with that. We ordered drinks and they were ok. It was very dark and cold in the place. The front and back door of the place was opened during the night and it was 45 degrees outside. So we were pretty cold being inside the lounge. They have patio outside which is pretty cool, they had heaters but none of them was running. They had two pool tables that cost $2 per game. Overall, the place was ok not great and not bad. I would come back here if I'm looking for a chill vibe. read more

Good drinks good vibes highly recommend my first time here I'll be back if you're in this area come through

Recently moved to the area and was happy to find a new place close to home. Andrea the bartender is attentive and super friendly, and makes great drinks. Always have a great time! read more

I love the Pepper Tree and the locals that frequent it! Andreas hospitality keeps me coming back!!

Fun, chill spot with good drinks and fun, friendly staff. Great Mexican food next door that you can bring to eat at the bar. read more

Comfortable neighborhood bar a bit hidden from the main road. Great for pool and drinks for a no fuss casual evening. Popular on the weekends with a crowd that varies a bit in age. I went here more often when I was a bit younger but its still refreshing to go to a bar once in a while in the paranoid covid era - seems like all bars are paranoid maskhole free. Be sure and give the place a try. Evenings where there is no particular reason to go out - and there aren't that many expectations are the best... read more

I came up for happy hour to join a family friend to catch up. She had chosen this place based on the reviews and the patio they offer. We walked up and waited ten minutes before reciting an order. Once she heard we wanted a Herradura margarita, she deferred the task to someone drinking at the counter as if he was going to stand up, walk around and make it himself. So if you don't want to make the drink or greet a decent customer, make a sign so I can read it and decide against this place. read more

The best bartender at the pepper tree. Treats everyone with respect and dignity. I recommend this place. read more
