Latitude 42 Bar & Grill

We walked in wanted hot wings and a beer we sat at the bar and waited to be acknowledged the bar tender had her back to us she never turned to say anything to us as we waited for at least 6 minutes we decided to leave we were never spoke to we went to the Fat Irish Pub and Grill had outstanding service great wings and wonderful atmosphere. The Latitude 42 sucks. Save yourself some time and go straight to Fat Irish you won't regret it.

Walked in, sat at the bar, and tried to order food. The bartender wanted me to pay up front. I said no, I will pay at the end like anywhere else that serves food. The bartender said that it was "standard practice" to pay upfront. I decided to walk out at that point. If I wanted to be treated like the 3 other homeless people hanging out in the parking lot, I would have walked in without shoes or a shirt to be denied service. **Solo travelers: word of caution, avoid this place. The vibes are off.

The place was okay. We did have fun. The music wasn't very good and was so loud we couldn't even hear each other talk. It took forever to order our food and then when they brought the food to the table they completely missed two people's orders. Did enjoy the pool tables. And in defense of the bartender/waitress, she was the only one behind the counter and was busy as hell trying to serve everybody in a round robin style.

An average style establishment. Typical bar trying to be a club. Perfect scene for the younger crowd. Service was selective and favoritism was the name of the game. All in all nothing special. If you like not being able to hear. And waiting forever for your drinks. Then this is the place for you.

Judging by the service, this place won't be open long. Our bartender was the rudest service worker I've ever encountered. After getting married at the beach and having dinner, our party of 16 came in to end our night after a server at our restaurant recommended them as a late night spot. I think there was maybe 40 people in there including us, and most were singing karaoke or shooting pool. Our bartender did everything in her power to get us out. I asked her why she kicked out our pregnant designated driver who asked for water and she said she couldn't provide ID, meanwhile she didn't even ID everyone in our party that drank. She also said she would need to call for help if we planned to stay because she wouldn't be able to handle our group without it. She had at least one bar back helping her so it's not like she was on her own. She was mostly just chatting with a few others and anytime someone tried to order a drink she acted super inconvenienced. We were then denied shots because she didn't want to make different types of shots and said if we didn't get 17 of the same shots then she wouldn't make them. Different couples offered to buy rounds and were unable to get service or were given some excuse. They literally lost hundreds of dollars of service that night. We will be returning to Brookings, but never to Latitude 42. You're better off drinking at home/hotel if nothing else is open.

CHECK YOUR CARDS. This place is shady since ownership changed over and they wrongfully fired the best bartenders in town. Now when going in and “closing your tab” they will say they got you, but they will never give you anything to sign. Check your account the next morning. Scandalous.

There's gaming and what apears to be an upscale menu from your typical bar fair. Best time to be there is from opening time till about 8 or 9pm. Thats when the "Kids" start showing up, and that's when the place gets goes to hell. Boys start fighting, and the girls start crying. Everyone is over served at that point best to get out while the getting good.

Love this place. Not only is the food good bug the view kis hreat!
