It's a tavern. It's an inn. It's old. Like 1898 as one of the oldest bars in the state…read more All good things for a local drinking hole. There's nothing refined about it and walls are filled with...stuff. Everyone looks like they just came back from camping. But the vibe is neighborly friendly. Regulars that come everyday, sometimes twice a day. It is the most pup friendly bar in the county with fur friends cozing up to anyone for a free scratch. Be nice to the servers; rough but sweet on the regulars.

I do recommend this place but I also love experiences of all ranges and the time we went here, it…read morewas quite a great one. We were in a large group and as soon as we launched through the door, we were met with curious eyes! The locals had set up in what I assume their regular spots and thus, wondered what this new crew was doing here. In no time, those curious became very welcoming! However, as we enjoyed some libations and a bit of pool... we were the ones joining the locals with eyes filled with awe and curiosity! A very young wedding party showed up and took the bar over but in a very cordial way. Many locals stayed but we left, given the gift of fun for the wedding crew!

Tips: Taco Tuesday: soft or crunchy ground beef tacos are…read more$2.25 each, carne asada street tacos are $3.25 each & deep-fried tacos are $2.25 each all day on Tuesday's. Happy Hour Mon-Fri from 4pm-7pm on drinks only. My wife and I stopped into Player's for lunch during the week after doing a bit of shopping at Costco. Free parking can be found in the parking lot. Discover is an accepted form of payment. It's evident that the clientele are regulars. During our visit, the bartender was also the cook. Orders are placed at the bar. Indoors is spacious with several tables scattered about. For entertainment, Player's offers pool tables, pool tabs, darts, fooseball and TV's. All day on Tuesday's, soft or crunchy beef tacos or carne asada street tacos with cilantro are $2 each. My wife had a couple pints of Bud Light for $4.75 each. I had a couple pints of Bodhi IPA for $5.75 each. Our beers were ice cold and filled to the rim. We each ordered one crunchy and one soft (fajita size) ground beef taco for $2 each. The tacos were stuffed with seasoned taco meat, cheese, lettuce and tomatoes. Filling and tasty. Overall, Player's is a decent bar for the surrounding area. Due to the type of bar that this is, top-notch customer service shouldn't be expected. Have a seat and enjoy a cold brew while waiting on food orders. Witnessing the amount of people at lunch during the week, I can only assume this bar gets packed in the evenings and weekends. My wife and I both enjoy bars such as Player's and look forward to returning in the future.

True pool halls are hard to come by these days, but they do exist. They are (usually) exclusively…read moreadult, human environments in a time when so many places strive to be "kid and dog friendly" (eesh). Golden Fleece has an Eastern European (Georgian) vibe, as evidenced by the menu and some staffing choices. I like that it's not all typical bar food here, Prices are fair, drinks are strong, and service is quick and friendly. I would love to see more Georgian food and drink on the menu, like dumplings, kubdari, kharcho, achma maybe, a real qababi to go with the plov... and how about a chacha- based cocktail? The tables and cues can be somewhat unkempt. We had to hunt considerably for straight cues with good tips, and brush our table free of debris. Tip: opt for a table further from the front entrance, for better equipment selection. This part of the experience needs improvement, but should be an easy fix. The music can be too loud and, frankly, too much of one genre. I feel they are trying to ride a line between nightclub and pool hall, to attract younger clientele. This may be tough on players that need relative quiet to concentrate. All and all, a fun time. I cannot say that it is a "clean" hall, either figuratively or literally, but I can say that at least at this point in time, it's still approachable to those just looking for a drink and a nibble while shooting a game or two with friends, with minimum drama. Give 'em a shot! ;)

We came here after a comedy show for the after party and it was a great time. There are tons of…read morepool tables as you can imagine and the spacing was quite nice. There was a distinct part of the place for pool, a separate darts area, and then of course the front bar area with high tables that were great for eating at and socializing. Walking through the pool area to get to the bathroom, I didn't feel like I was going to ruin anyone's shot. I ordered at the bar upon entering and grabbed one of these tall tables for our group. They knew where we were stting as the food came right out to us. The menu is regular bar food and it is not too bad. The bathrooms themselves were decently clean. The staff was friendly and eager to serve us. There is also an entire basement filled with pool tables that we did not check out. This place is open late so a good option for a late night hang.

The service is amazing -- so friendly and accommodating. Aislinn is the bartender and she always has the shakers shaking and the ultimate libations. Try the Holiday In Cambodia for an extra yummy drink (I take mine as a chaste libation) and I'm tellin' ya, you won't even miss the liquor -- at least not very much. I order their fries, which are amazing because they are Truffle-ized, but tonight I decided to try something a little different, so I ordered the Osaka Jo-Jos -- let me tell you, they are amaze-balls with the perfect amount of spice which makes magical umami (I just wanted an excuse to use that word). Served tender crispy with a flavor that will take you places. All this in a Speak Easy atmosphere that is seriously vibing!! All in all, El Sid is a favorite for live music (Monday is Blues Night, my favorite!) There are a variety of nights -- even Karaoke. Y'all need to make your way to El Sid and pet the Velvet Wall as you walk in on do it before you leave!!

I was looking for champagne, which they had an unfamiliar brand but it was really light, more on the dry side, and crisp - exactly what I was looking for! The bartender was informative and kept busy during my time there. The ambiance is warm and loungey with lots of different seating options. Some facing the hotel lobby for people watching, a couple of intimate booths, group seating around the fireplace, and bar top seats. A group came in for whiskey, and played board games that were available in the seating area. The holiday decorations made it cozy and the perfect spot to read a book while sipping on a good champs!
