Dive bar. Place was cool. Bartender was cool and nice to us. They got foozeball, pool, and CHESS! Got a nice garage door to open up to get some airflow on nice days. Bathroom is chromed out! Stainless steel from floor to ceiling. Very classy. Sign says they got a ps5 apparently. So that's cool. Would come back.

One of the worst bar staffs I’ve ever seen and experiences I’ve ever had. Racist , disrespectful, I was shocked how the bouncers talked to the people spending money there. I literally saw a bouncer threaten to kick a puppy of a guy that was out front smoking!! You can’t make this up! I love a good dive bar , I just don’t like dive people.

Female bartender was extremely rude! $13 for a shot of Hennessy, what is told after ordering they only accept cash. Unfortunately only had $12 on me. She denied my money and got upset and dumped the drink, wasting it rather than getting 99% of value. So I decided to leave and never come back! Bartender messed what is rude instead of, creating a happy first time customer with repeat business.

Had to call to police to get my real license back from the bouncer. After refusing to hear me out for 30 minutes he finally apologized when the police gave it back, but refused to admit he did anything wrong taking a real license and refusing to give it back.

ESOX is the beautiful epitome of the term dive-bar. It's a smaller spot that offers a jukebox, free pool, and an laid back atmosphere. Drinks are very reasonably priced (and typically well made) plus, they offer specials and deals on pitchers. Even the staff here are great. All in all, definitely a personal favorite bar in town and one I would recommend to most!

This is a dive bar through and through, and is not a conventional 4 star establishment. Nothing is super special about the drinks, the bar is not pristine by any means and the bar staff can be a bit rough around the edges. However, this is a great place to go to have interesting conversation and a pitcher of cheap beer, so if you go in with that mindset you will not be disappointed.
