   The bar was decorated beautifully, however the service was terrible. We sat at our table 10 minutes before being acknowledges. We tried to get the attention of a waitress who went to over table on our row but skipped us. When we tried to get her attention, she brushed us off. We watched servers look at us but never come to our table. It was very disappointing to watch multiple staff basically disregard our table. After finally being acknowledged, the drinks were good.

   It was a fun time with the ambiance and activity I purchased but the drinks were not good. I took 2 sips of mine and couldn’t finish it. Neither could my partner for his own drink or mine. For $15 a drink I was severely disappointed in that. Service is slow too for the amount of servers and tables they have. I’d recommend doing it once but wouldn’t particularly return here because of the price for what you get.

   We visited for the Christmas bar and wow were we disappointed. It took over an hour to even receive water. Drinks were overpriced and they were already out of one of them even though we had a reservation at 11 am. We ordered 2 appetizers that were delivered 20 minutes apart. We were seated at 11 am but a waiter didn’t come to our table until 11:30, after we stopped her to ask for service. Every table around us had to do the same. Overall, I would absolutely not recommend this to anyone. Horrible experience

   I was very excited for this but it kind of let me down in regards to service and quality of food. The ambience and decorations were very nice and I appreciated the communication with the manager in letting me buy the dinosaur mugs. However, it took a long time for our server to not only service us at first but for us to get drinks and an unreasonable long time to get 2 orders of deviled eggs. The manager even came out twice to ask if we’d gotten it yet. The table next to us got their food WAY before we did and we ordered at the same time. Thankfully the manager told us they would take that off but we had to remind our server about it because he had put it in. But otherwise, ambience and the managers were great.

   Overpriced. On top of the ticket price is another fee when you are there, overpriced food and drinks. The GOP’s taste old and like mold. The drinks were ok but in tiny glasses/mugs for $14+. Decorations were pretty cool and it was neat to be able to add an activity on. We didn’t do urs there because I didn’t know if it would dry by the time we left. Two drinks, one appetizer was 78.80, and that doesn’t include the cost of tickets or the activity, that was paid in advance.

   Waited 45 minutes for a drink. Very slow service. Even though it was only $10 to get in, it was not worth it.

   I was a little disappointed. I went last year and really enjoyed myself and couldn't wait to attend again. Our reservation was at 5. Once seated we placed our drink order and it took a little over an hour to get 3 cocktails! The waitress didn't even offer water until after sitting there for 40 min and didn't even give us straws or water so we could paint our ornaments. Overall I was extremely disappointed I sent $10 per person to attend.

   Overal the aesthetic was so so cute. However, the drinks were expensive, which for a good drink I don’t mind. But these all tasted terrible. Everyone at our table tried something different and not one of them was good, I even tried adding some Sprite to mine to mellow it out and it didn’t help at all.

   The drinks were tasty. We had the deviled eggs and charcuterie. The eggs were good. The charcuterie was overpriced for something that looked and tasted like a pre-made tray from the grocery store. We also did not get the craft that was advertised so that was disappointing.

    The concept is really fun but unfortunately the service is just too slow and overall we felt like it really wasn't worth what we paid to go.
