Greatly priced drinks, lonely dive bar feel. Not too crazy right amount of music and karaoke! The bartenders are always great.

It was my first time here, and I've always been curious about this spot--especially since I knew they had karaoke. It's very much your classic dive bar, nothing fancy, but everyone was friendly enough and the vibe was easygoing.We had just come from a celebration of life, so my mood was a little off. Still, I appreciated being out with friends. One thing I really liked was the hamburger stand behind the bar--the guy working it was super nice, which made the experience even better. As with any dive bar, there's always some interesting people-watching, and this night definitely delivered. At one point, an angry wife came in yelling at her husband... so yeah, never a dull moment.I was also kind of impressed with myself for staying out that late. Usually I don't, but this time I did--and I did it as the sober driver. There's always something fascinating about being the one who stays clear-headed and gets everyone home safely. Last night, that was me, and honestly, I was really proud of that.Overall, it was definitely a night to remember. read more

I was asked by Daniel to see inside my Pool Cue Case for security purposes which is fine, but I stated why isn't everyone being checked which is the real concern and the cause of my frustrated state. Other males made it past the door without being asked to be searched, or Identified, and this included females being allowed inside without Identification and purses aren't even being checked. Why are Undocumented Immigrants allowed inside the bar without Identification; for example, Abraham -AKA Screw-, I wouldn't mention this, but I don't appreciate him stealing my drinks from the pool table area when I go outside to smoke; verify with Ashley the Bartender, Incident Reported to Coby. Since Screw got caught in a lie about stealing my drinks, Ashley made me a fresh drink; me getting a replacement doesn't vaporize the fact that it occurred. I firmly and professionally mentioned that technically it's a Civil Rights Violation to Coby and to speak with Daniel about it. I never said I am going to sue the bar, but I did clearly state that I had grounds to do so, and that I don't mind making some pocket money. Coby told me that he communicated with owners, or whoever that since I am suing the bar I can find another bar to go to. I haven't even filed anything with the state, or government. How can I sue without the Civil Rights Department doing their investigation and issuing me a "Right to Sue Letter"? An English Comprehension Lesson: I am suing the bar, and I could sue the bar are two completely different sentences when explained, and defined. I understand English well; my English comprehension is very well developed since I enjoy reading books, and writing research papers. Now, not only is it a Civil Rights Violation, it's also evidence of retaliation for me expressing that I may obtain counsel. I do plan on exercising my rights as an American Citizen, and an Honorably Discharged Navy Veteran. Since your team exercised the "86'd Option" catch-all measure for something that could have been taken care of in a different fashion, I will be taking my time in putting together leveraged evidence, and clear arguments before submitting my file. There is no sympathy on my end whatsoever for anyone involved and I will accept any and all levels of retaliation, and, or consequences. I am upset with the thoughtless decision, so I am currently not open to negotiations. read more

This has been my ONE N ONLY SPOT for years can be crowded at times but it's. good for karaoke if you get there early enough cuz so many people want to sing. Plus tepeats like myself can't get enough time in. They have 1 pool table sometimes it's free when not stack your quarters up until it's your turn. But alot good people attend this spot and always welcoming new ones. read more

This place is a serious good time. A word to the wise, the karaoke is deceiving, the pros make it look super easy but it's far from it. There's only instrumental to accompany you with minimal cues. I failed miserably at my rendition of Shoop from award winning artists Salt-N-Pepa. I would have been mortified if not for the stop light shot I had taken just before. Warning No.2, if you come here on your birthday you will have to take one of these stop light shots (3 of em) in a consecutive fashion whilst the whole bar sings happy birthday to you. All in all, a great night with a chill crowd. The Micheladas are delicious and made to your spice preference. The bartenders are all really nice and friendly. 10/10 will return and hopefully recoup my honor in the karaoke. read more

Basic dive bar with decent pours. Perfect for the old timers but not cool enough to attract new blood. Meh!

Great place to chill with friends. I've been here multiple times and never had any problems. If you want to go and do karaoke with friends, I recommend this place. The only downside is that the parking lot isn't very big and cars fill up quickly. I've never tried any of the food here, but the service is pretty good. Also, I can't tell you much about their drinks because I don't drink, lol. read more

Nice place to hangout on a Sunday afternoon. Oh! great way to drink my sorrows away after the Raiders lost again!! read more

I don't understand why the domestic drinks are $4 .. after 10pm are $4. 50 and after 12mid. End up at $5. Is there a reason why ? I never encounter this before. I don't think the price should go up depending on the hour. So disappointed. read more

Amazing bar friendly people all around. Relaxing environment. Great customer service

Fun place with friendly people, lots of TV's and fair prices on drinks. Come for a drink, stay for the karaoke! read more

This is a dive bar, enough said. Karaoke, cheap drinks, and good times if you're in a group. It's a neighborhood bar for locals. Nothing upscale about this place so if you're looking to be catered to, go somewhere else. Also, cash only. read more

Love this bar. It's cash only so be prepared . Been timing here for years since it was called the POW wow. All the bartenders are friendly and great. Drinks are good. However if you are bit a karaoke fan beware. read more

You can improve the customer service and the parking of the location not to top it off when you call because you can't get a hold of someone the bartenders act like they can't hear let alone take the phone off the hook so your don't call back even when you tell them it's a emergency read more

I get to the bar and it says domestic beers $3 until close . I got there at 9:45pm .I got my second one q few minutes later and Ellie charged me 3.75 and I called her out. Dude and his chick were laughing how she's the observational person. She politely said sorry. I buy my next beet and it's. 3.75 again. I asked why. We didn't change the sign. Patricia said. She is full of crap and check if she doesn't rip you off. She even told me to text M..Patricia is mad and I called her and she changed the sign. She was a C read more

Karaoke is great and the most outstanding drinks you can get (strong af) plus the vibes are right!

Love the vibe at this bar. Karaoke was fun! Didn't have to wait long for our drinks. They have a pool table but mostly there for well priced drinks and the music. Music is always on point at this bar and there's a jukebox to play music you want when the dj isn't there. Good drink specials!! read more

Hate that it's cash only but love that drinks are cheaper and there's ATM access I love the collaboration with small food stands companies like tacos or pizza and it's awesome that they serve until close. My biggest issue with it is that it's the absolute WORST karaoke system I've ever came across From the rotation to choosing a song Most karaoke places are like this, but there's only one spot that I know that if they don't have the karaoke version of a specific song, they literally share their screens with the laptop and use YouTube and we can see the lyrics on the, which is awesome because a person can sing literally whatever song they want and whatever version of the song they want with it that's either a specific a key change or they just like a specific rendition of a song. And let's face it most and majority of people use YouTube for karaoke at home so it's absolutely smart to have a system like that. Over here they give you this big book. Do you have to put your name and artist and search the entire book to look for a song. Which is tiring and there's a lot of pressure because of not being able to decide what you want to sing, let alone being able to find it. People should be able to just say the name of this song and the DJ should just put it on. Same, Ol' Saloon or a.k.a. powwow is a great crowd nice people excellent service and friendly bartenders but that karaoke system is the biggest downfall The way they rotate is a big mess and it's discouraging when people don't get called up again because they don't have another song to sing yet . And there was a rumor being spread around that you have to buy the karaoke person a drink in order for them to cut you in front of everybody else, so you can sing? Like I said, that's just a rumor, but it makes sense when I'm there sometimes and I feel like there's someone who signed up Way after me, but yet went ahead of me. I remember going there exactly at 9:30 and I only sang once maybe twice. Wow, when I go to the local bar by my job, I can swing up to four times depending on the crowd. (which it can be very crowded.) Given that this place does karaoke every single day I'm surprised the system as horrible as it is. Karaoke every day sounds like having to me that's why I go. I just wish it was a little bit better. . read more

I love this place!! I can't believed I lived 1/2 a mile away for 20 years and just started coming!! The atmosphere is so great! You can be 21 or 91 and it's all love. They have karaoke every night and very low prices...Hands down the bar in Downey and we a lot! read more

All of a sudden the Tuesday host ends karaoke early taking the selection book away and the locals have to buy her drinks just to get a song approved and she then approves it, when other karaoke nights she's not around the personnel is fair. She's a disgusting person being selective. DONT come on Tuesdays when this person is on duty!!!! AB VOID her at all costs! This person needs to be replaced!!! read more

OMG!! Nancy rocked it!! Literally.. you know, it's nice to get off of work and come to a hidden gem like this one.. This saloon is a must! The service is top notch. A bar that cannot go under.. I must say, I've seen many bars and restaurants go under and a lot of investment goes into it.. but u know what, some of these places that ppl think are underrated are actually quite the perfect spot. Happy hour is the on point and local beers on draft are more than perfect. Thanks again Nancy for delivering top tier service to a this very scrupulous, high maintenance everyday blue collar worker. You rocked it girl and I'm so proud of you. It's places like this is is why i choose to frequent these type of establishments. Thank you kindly. read more

It's fun inexpensive place to meet with friends for a good time. Good drinks for cheap.

Pretty good dive bar, bartenders are good and friendly. Decent clientele and fun atmosphere. Prices for drinks are reasonable & beers were cold. One of the patrons there seemed cool, but after a few drinks was acting odd and said some things that were offensive, but I just blew it off. Needless, to say I excused myself to use the restroom then quietly exited. Wasn't getting good vibes. So, I bounced. Know where you're at and be safe out there. read more
