Chuck's Bar (Closed Permanently)

Friendly, fun, relaxed, a great bargain!

This is the nicest dive bar we've ever had the pleasure of going to. The bartender was handsome, sweet, helpful, attentive, and most importantly- funny. The drinks were super cheap, the clientele seemed casual and relaxed. Locals came bounding in the door with that fabulous, bombastic familiarity and greeted the owner who was joyously making conversation with new and old patrons alike. So what if there's writing in the bathroom stalls, this place is GREAT!

Chuck Bar

Went to Chucks Bar last night for the first time in almost a year. I regret it. I have been to bars from Tokyo to Key West and this has to be the worst I have ever been in bar none! Had friends in town staying at a downtown hotel. Went to Chucks for a beer before a late dinner with them. Ordered my beer, was served a 2.00 BPR which is what I ordered. Tipped the female bartender a buck. Left. Had dinner sans alcohol. Had dinner with friends and they had to return to the hotel. Went wanted to go out so I told them to meet me at Chucks. I went to Chucks, ordered another BPR until my friends came and when the 'male' bartender, a rude asshole I might add, placed the beer in front of me he demanded to be tipped and said if I did not tip him not to come back. I always tip, usually on the second beer, but I was so shocked I refused to tip. Took my beer to a small table opposite the bar and had one sip when the bouncer came over and said I had tipped the bartended. I said no and he said the bartender said I had to leave to 'get the hell out' and never come back! I wanted to tip the beer over but was so shocked I just left. Extortion from a rude bartender!!! Friendly bar my ass!!! So I waited outside from my friends and we had a great time at Club One. I will tell everyone I know never to darken the doors of Chuck's Bar!!!

Don't bother

Dobt get me wrong...I love a dive bar, and this place is one. But, have some self respect, and respect for your customers. Bartender/manager, greeted me and took my drink order with a cel phone in her ear. Drinks were very small. When there appeared to be a problem with my credit card, the first thing she did was threaten to call the cops. Really very unprofessional in every way. I won't go back and if I were Chuck, I'd watch things a lot closer.
