Mineshaft

It’s 2024. Start taking F-ing credit cards! It’s ridiculous that a bar would still be cash only, not to mention the horrible service. I went with a friend tonight. We were waiting on the bartender who took forever even though the bar was practically empty, but whatever. We waited patiently. Then when we ordered and my friend was going to pay, the bartender said very dismissively “it’s cash only. There’s an atm over there. Come back to me when you have cash.” Then he quickly snatched away the drinks and walked away. I’m not going to pay a fee just to withdraw money, then pay for an overpriced drink, and give a tip on top of that to a rude bartender. We left and went to other local bars for drinks. We won’t bother spending any money here going forward

I just have to say that the bartender that we had tonight Sunday, November 24 was extremely rude and obnoxious. We had a power trip and got upset because we asked him why was wondering cheaper than the other one so I believe he’s charging a different price for whatever the price is really on the drink so it’s probably a thief

Drinks aren’t too expensive and I really like the old school atmosphere. Smoking area is grimy in a good way. Can get really busy on weekends but can also be low key during the week.

Today Saturday November 9 I give to review this place and give 1 star because there’s not a cero ,service bartenders have a horrible service this Latino chubby guy they give you actitud and it seems that they do not know how to serve a drink the only good thing was the dj and guy asking for IDs

Had a great tonight at this bar. Mario took good care of me with happy hour drinks. The people were so welcoming and fun. I will definitely be back!

If you ride a motorcycle, don't come here. I've been coming here for years and always parked in front - no issues. Today a new bartender was very unwelcoming and would not let me park in front & refused service. Falcon and all other LBC bars allow motorcyle parking.

Great bar. Always a good time here!

This is and has been my local watering hole for years. Totally love the owner Jeff. He has alway's has been super inviting and charming to me since meeting him years ago. In the last few months though i have noticed something here and at the other local bars regarding food street vendors. I am all for anyone making a living doing honest work which they all are but why at Mineshaft are they literally setting up shop right in front of the entrance? And i do mean right in front of the only entrance to the bar! What if the customers are not hungry? What if the customer wants a little more low key of an entrance? Anyway i don't know why this is being allowed? I realize that no one owns the sidewalk (including the vendors who think they do) but this just seems wrong to me. In all years before everywhere i have never seen this practice nor do i feel it's right. For me part of the appeal of the MS was discretion on entering and leaving. Now with blinding lights and literally a kitchen and some people eating not so much. All i can say is i hope this practice soon stops. Entrances to establishments should not be blocked. And let me state i have no problem with the street vendors other then this and that if any licenses or rules are required that they adhere to them just like any business has to.
