He didn't call us, we had to call him to find out. We had a hard time getting in touch with him to get our deposit back. He wasn't even the one who came to the place to give us the money. I am just appalled at all of it. It is nearly impossible to find a reception venue 2 days before a wedding. On top of that I had to contact all the guests and explain the change of venue. It was stressful and I am still just so angry.

Every table is a small with four seats, which makes it harder to mingle and get to know other people. My biggest complaint is the food and service; the beef was mostly burnt chunks, the sausage was bland, the tortillas were dry, and insisting that one person serve from two meat trays for 500+ people made it take forever. They had to start the program while half the people were still in line so that the schedule for the whole night wouldn't be thrown off. They even made a big deal about forming two lines and going down both sides of the table, but Chuck had to mete out the burnt beef, weird tortillas, and nameless sausage one person at a time. Then, after serving yourself beans, corn, and potatoes, the peach cobbler was pre-portioned in servings of about three tablespoons! And it was cold. Worst "Texas BBQ" I have ever had, even compared to other event centers. Staff came through while the kids were doing awards and took plates, even though some of them had barely started eating. I will never recommend 4BarK as a location for an organizational event. Two stars because none of the staff was actively rude. P.S. The restrooms are labeled as "Stables" and are about that nice - gentlemen might as well go urinate on the barn wall out back.

John could not have been more professional, accommodating and helpful as I described what I was looking for and he handled everything so wonderfully and graciously. I was very impressed with the venue upon arrival and the setup was just as beautiful as described to me and super clean! Our reserved space was very spacious with the tables laid out and still room to walk around without bumping into others. We had a buffet setup in the hallway so attendees were also able to view the beautiful artwork displayed along the foyer. Very nice! John also made sure to check on us to ensure all was well. That was nice and I was able to relax without having to run around for last minute fixes. Our time here was worth every penny and I will make sure to reach out to this venue first and recommend others to book their events with John's help. You will not be disappointed.

On a beautiful Friday night, there are a few great places in Lubbock to grab a drink. If you want…read moreto know what fun looks like, Mano Negra on a Friday night has you covered. I haven't returned to Mano Negra since it moved from its old location in Cactus Alley to the heart of Lubbock. Their old spot was very tight but had such an unadulterated charm that made the space feel special. The new location feels a lot more modern, but as its fanbase continues to grow, it needed more space to work with anyway. Inside, there's a huge wall of art and plenty of seating, and it feels like a place that doesn't belong in Lubbock. It feels so mid-city that it almost made me emotional. In the back lies their bar, where they serve their famed sangria, house-brewed beers, and other beverages. Their bartenders are super knowledgeable and will help you make the right choice. In the corner are a few arcade machines, including Street Fighter II, Mortal Kombat II, Defender, and Pac-Man. There are also plenty of board games to pick up as well. As for the drinks, the Sunset Sangria and their Sandia Sangria I had were both exceptional. Good sangria hits like nothing I've ever had before. Mano Negra's new spot has a great deal of outdoor seating and patio space. If the inside gets too loud or too crowded, and if there's live music like there was when I went, it can get LOUD. The outdoor space offers a quiet escape and a great conversation spot on a cool night in Lubbock. The overall vibe and energy of Mano Negra are lively. The Brazilian students playing music in the corner brought out a new level of energy to the night, and I had a blast going here. I warn that their drinks are a little strong and the energy can get a little hot, so you may find yourself three drinks deep, unable to resist getting your dance on a little bit. Have a little fun with it. RIYL: Feeling A L I V E on a Friday night

Parking was free, ample, and just across the street. Will call was super quick. The Seminole native was absolutely a joy to watch. While she was a bit difficult to hear through their sound system between songs there in the Helen Devitt Jones Theater, her stories we did hear made us laugh hard and helped us realize how cowboy she really is. The modern facility had a spiral staircase just inside the main entrance plus their logo that both look like tornadoes. My significant other & I loved our seats ($88.45 apiece after fees & taxes) at Right Orchestra Loose, Row V, Seats 47 & 48. No one in front of us. No one behind us. We could scoot our chairs closer together - not like most of the theater's seats. During our event, it was required to purchase a reusable, refillable plastic commemorative Buddy sip cup that can be brought to other events for any beverage. The cup was $3. My single shot of Crown Royal whiskey with Coke was $10 (not including the $3 required cup). The staff members were all pleasant to deal with & mostly quick to eliminate nuisances.
