Love this Place

Great live music
by paigeflag
This is the place to go for great music. They have the best bands almost every weekend. The drinks are reasonably priced and the service isn't bad.

The Best Bar Tucson Has To Offer
by cultured28
I was very impressed with this bar. Very cool and laid back. The lighting is awesome with lava lamps and other cool 60's lamps. Drinks are tasty and a bargain. The music is alternative/rock and isn't so loud you can't enjoy the company you are with. Just a great place to hang out with your buddies.
- Pros: Atmosphere, Bar, Lighting
- Cons: No Dart Board
