We love coming here! The food is actually very good for bar food. Great for drinks also. Close to all of the gay bars. Busy on weekends. No reservations, first come first serve. They do have tables that can seat larger parties. Love the indoor-outdoor vibe and music played here. Great for people watching. A few times we’ve come the service has been less than stellar but we come back for the food. Our favs: black book salad, chicken sandwich, burger, tacos, and chicken sandwich. Fries are also very good!

The food was very good, but unfortunately, the cocktails were meh. Service was solid, but as others have noted, the place has a bit of a dirty bar vibe. We really enjoyed the food, but this place could be so much more if they invested in a deep clean, revamped the table layout, and upgraded the cocktail menu. There’s potential here. I'd say for an easy lunch vibe hang out spot it is definitely worth a visit. Does this work for you?

Ewwww. This place is absolutely atrocious. Drinks are grossly overpriced and watered down. Glassware was dirty. The bar area was dirty and sticky. Staff is unattentive and the owner leaves so much much to be desired with their lackluster attitude and attention to the business. When approached as a customer, it was made to seem like I was a liar and thief for expressing my concerns over conditions and the highway robbery of my pocketbook. As an owner, you should be more accommodating and attentive to your guests. Would 100% NOT recommend visiting this place. Save your money and skip this!

I love your hibiscus blonde! So yummy fresh and I love that you serve it with a cold glass to tier service with Brincklie. We went on a hot day and enjoyed nachos a beer and cocktail. Great music and love that all are welcome.

A nice little pregame bar in The Arena (Gay District) area. Drinks were good, but a little pricey. Food was yummy. Service was great, waiters a bartenders were on top of it. If you want to sit, talk, and get away from all the noise, this is a good place for that if you sit inside. However, they do have outdoor seating in the front if you want to see all the action, too!

As queer tourists, we were very disappointed. Everywhere in Palms Springs has been nice. We wanted a drink and some food service. We were told by the bartender we had to be sitting to get food services, but there were no seats. When we found a seat, we waited 20 minutes to be served and were not. We love serving queer establishments in different cities, but this was the worst service we’ve ever had

Honestly the best tacos and nachos I’ve ever had. The staff are a lot of fun and professional. They make their own chips so nachos or chips and salsa are epic. Their street tacos are also amazing and they are known for the disco fried. But above all that just a very friendly and upbeat vibe that’s hard to describe. This is a must visit place.

Service was incredibly slow we got forgotten multiple times. Several orders came out wrong and some never arrived. The food was very overcooked and almost burnt. Would not recommend.
