Top-notch atmosphere that sets it aside from your visit to the local brewery. Great place for a date night or couples get- together. Even the bartenders had coordinated aprons that added a professional touch. The menu features all sorts of things that you might not imagine finding, never mind eating at a bar- like foie gras. Everything had a touch of adventure. There were different sliders, salads,and a whole page of "pickables" - both vegetarian and non- to munch on. The cocktails are truly the reason to come here. Yes, you are going to pay the premium price per drink ($15) but you are not getting house vodka with a splash of juice and lime. Each drink has top tier ingredients and some have bonus actions as well. They have the bourbon smoker box and some thing that makes an enormous bubble on your drink. (DO THIS!) We found that as first-timers, we were met with a calm, welcoming energy by our bartender, who answered politely answered our questions without making us feel like outsiders. I would add this on a monthly date night rotation if it wasn't quire so far away.

The bar lays host to a pool league and a men's softball team who you'll see frequently after matches or games. The people that come in are mostly working folks in an eclectic mix of young 20-somethings to elders. On any given night the jukebox will be playing various music from a country song then to hard rock to music in Spanish to R&B. It's nice to hear the various genres and watch folks singing along and having a good time. I like coming here to have a drink and catch up with the happenings in town with good people.

First off: This is not a real Veterans bar. Besides myself, I didn't meet not one other Veteran…read morethere. I believe the owner is a Veteran but that's about it. I was told by a Vietnam buddy of mine from the Military Club at Holyoke Community College. That the bar changed owners some years back and back in the day, the bar was a huge supporter for its men and woman in arms. Now it promote violence and gang affiliation. The bouncers will watch while you bleed on their floor and the the bartenders will berate and try to humiliate you in the bathroom. It only took two visits for me to completely turn my back on this establishment. The first visit was very friendly. I went in about 9 pm -11 pm on or about Sep 25th. Small crowd, all watching a game. Had a couple beers and went home happy. The second visit was unbelievable. My grandmother (the woman that raised me) had passed away Dec 4th, 2018. On Dec 5th, I decided to visit the bar with my husband to have a few drinks to drown in our sorrows. Immediately you saw a complete change in the atmosphere. Loud music and groups of people swarming around the entrance. I was not in a social mood, so I breezed passed them and sat on the other end of the bar. I came in about 11 pm that night and stayed until close. I played Keno and scratched tickets. Nothing special. Talked with my husband about my grandmother and had a couple tears and laughs. Last call: I took my last drink and headed towards the entrance. When at the door, I heard a couple females talk to me over my shoulder. Not thinking much about it, I turned to say hi. Immediately I was screamed at: "Mind your business white B!@#$". "You don't know us, we're the wrong ones. White B!@#$." I than was grabbed by the woman on the left and pulled to the ground. Unfortunately for them. I just so happen to be a "WHite B!@#$" that grew up in the bad neighborhood of Six Corners in Spfld, MA. I joined the Military and I just so happen to box in my spare time. I tore the first girl up. The other three girls than jumped in and it was a four against one fight. The staff and bouncers stood by and watched. I could see them circle around me as I fought for my life. The bar helped the girl that started the fight, by escorting her out without anyone seeing her. Leaving me bleeding on the floor. Once the woman that jumped me were safe in their car. I was pushed out the door and left by the side-walk of the building. One of the females left the car and returned for her phone. Because I laughed in her face and screamed she had no honor. She tried to initiate a second fight. THe bouncer than at that time. grabbed me and brought me to the bathroom to clean up my bloody face. While in the bathroom, I was ridiculed by the bartender. Not comfortable but blamed. She kept telling me, "Look at your face!" Once the female fetched her phone, I was grabbed from the bathroom by the Security Guard and pushed back outside where the doors were locked behind me. Outside again, I could hear the employees laughing indoors, "White B!@#$ always get what they deserve." I went home. The next day I tried to call the owner of the bar. He was never in and never returned my call. Again, I tried to use my position as The Military Club Treasurer of the Bunker at HCC, to reach out to a fellow Veteran. Again, the owner refused to answer. Finally, I turned to post and review the bar on Facebook. Nothing was ever posted. I decided to go looking through the feedback. I found one of the females that jumped me. 5 starred the bar! Followed her profile and sure enough there were all four girls. I filled a report with the Holyoke Police Dep. And also identified them correctly through mug-shots. Now, I have legal proceedings in place for the females and we are going to trail for one of them. Beware this bar! They are prejudice and you could die just trying to mourn a loved one. FYI: This "White B!@#$ is actually Cretan and Bahamian. Sorry my light skin offends you.

When I say I didn't want to leave, I really didn't want to leave, but it was getting dark out (not…read morelike you can tell inside a casino) and it was getting late on a work night. *Sigh*. This place was amazing and I'll tell you why... Atmosphere/Appearance: This place is inside the MGM Grand Casino in Springfield so you know it'll be classy. It was chill, relaxed and really easy going. I loved how we could just sit at the bar, play some video poker, sip and have great conversation with others around you. Service: Excellent. We were first greeted by an awesome young lady. I forget her name, but I'll never forget her tattoo. It was Disneyland, but like, zombie versions. Lol. It was the coolest thing and I believe she called it "Death Disney". Wild, but cool. I do however remember Bryan, Cassie and Aiden! Aiden looks like Bruno Mars, Cassie was really sweet and Bryan... well, Bryan was just damn awesome. He chatted with us, told us his story and how he preferred to make drinks... craft style instead of your normal cookie-cutter style cocktails. So some of the drinks I had weren't even on the menu, but came out of his head. Make sure you go see him. For real. Food: Well, they don't serve food here, so we drank! I started off with some wine... you know, some Pinot Noir, 2 glasses to be precise. Then as I loosened up I started getting adventurous. Hennessy is always delicious, but he fun part is when we got Bryan excited! He likes to create and make drinks so I told him to use his imagination and make me a drink with 219 parts. I was obviously joking, but he answered the call! He came through with a Sidecar at first. A Sidecar is basically cognac, orange liqueur and lemon juice. He stuck with the dark liquor theme since I was already drinking dark. He added his own twist and it was delicious, served with this hilariously big ice cube in it. I loved it. Next was the Old Fashioned. It's made with muddled sugar, (which I watched him do), bitters and whiskey with some citrus zest! Another hit! This dude is legit. Like I said, go see that man. Like I said earlier, I want to drive all the way to MGM just to come hang out at this place. I had that much of a good time there. I will be back.
