The "where the heck has the bar been" bar is open - 11/13/15 01:36 PM

sorry, been busy with the remodeling and all...I hope everyone enjoys the new décor...it took longer than expected to removed the Aqua-Net residue that had built up in the ladies room over the past few years, that stuff is worse than superglue...

anyway, please enjoy the LED lighting (which allows you to read your TRID documents and CRCM Exam Study Guide no matter where you sit), the 46 different beer taps at every table and booth, the wait staff is all former CFPB examiners, so not only will they be very slow, their suggestions are usually horrible, as is their service, and double check those checks, they're likely wrong as well.

For those who choose to indulge in cheesy hash browns, there is a separate room in the back that serves these along with cholesterol medicine IVs.

Nice rehab! I kind of miss that smell of aquanet mingled with cheesy hashbrowns, but I'll adjust, I'm sure! Ohhhh, that Blue Moon sure tastes good!

The checks aren't 'wrong,' you just have to understand the calculations. The cost per drink is the actual cost, plus any tips financed, less costs expected to be paid by others in your party (assuming you have a written contract in place allocating said costs accordingly). The total due, however, will not reflect the costs expected to be paid by others in your party. The total will be calculated by adding the actual cost per drink, plus tips financed, less tips expected to be paid in cash, multiplied by the date, divided by your shoe size. This will avoid giving you false expectations of having a reasonable total due, even though your actual total due might, in fact, be much lower than the amount shown.

As this is just a community bar and the cost of compliance out weighs the cost of a drink the bar is for sale to a mega bar and cost per drink will be tripled.

Make sure your bartender complies with the Truth in Blending Act when making your frozen margaritas!

After this crazy week, I just might drink anything you serve (within reason - because I understand that could open up some not-so-nice suggestions).
