   Waste of time and money . Better decorations at the surrounding businesses than in the pop up .

   Ambience was great. I wish there was actual food food and not just finger foods I think because all of the parties came in at the same (at 5 o’clock for us) that made the server very busy. Our appetizers all came at different times throughout the night. It was a cute place to go and have fun drinks (which I believe is the purpose) but would not recommend going if you’re hungry.

   It was okay, the ambiance is cool, but food and service were subpar.

   The ambiance of the pop up shop was amazing!!! Food and drinks were a little over priced for what you got. Our waitress, Ruth, went above and beyond for our table..from recommendations to fixing what we didn't like. She was A1! We did find out you there were items we could order not on the menu...that information would've been helpful earlier on in our experience, but didn't take away from the fun we had. Please add that information for next year. We ordered chicken dip..it was good but the chips were stale, this was an issue last year as well ....that needs to be fixed. The charcuterie board definitely needs an upgrade. 4 crackers for the entire board needs to be re-thought and make it more festive. Nothing about the board screamed festive or fancy...it was like lunch meat and whole bunch of cheese cubes and 4 grapes ...let's do better....overall we did enjoy ourselves

   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.
