Its just ok. Ive been twice when Ive been in town for business. It was recommended by hotel staff. Doubt Ill go again. Theyve got a good beer selection but the food is hit or miss. The loaded green Chile fries were delicious but the Caesar salad was grocery-store quality. The dressing is just wrong...its like an Italian attempting to be a Caesar.Service is nice. Atmosphere is definitely for adults only and not for everyone.

What a trip in time! I got they when it first opened for lunch. I had some fish with fries cooked perfectly. I had a couple of cold ones and watched a ball game with dinner good music in the background.The bartender was great. She was actually very beautiful on the outside and very kind of the inside. You have to check out this place if you are in town. I have to admit I didnt read one book.

Sitting outside for a Saturday lunch was perfect. The food was delicious, service was quick and the atmosphere was spot on! Couldnt have asked for better!

You know, this is for a lot of other people but not us. Its for a younger, and probably more aggressive, crowd. Were from out of town and were looking for a good time to hang out and let lose a bit and this wasnt it. Waiting on people outside so we could leave and people were just rude. Literally everywhere else people were nice except here. Staff was fine. People get into fights here too.

This has always been one of my favorite bars to go to. The atmosphere is amazing. The gentlemen working the doors always make sure to grab the door so you almost never have to touch it. The bartenders are amazing! Ive never had a bad experience with any of my drinks. Sometimes they host ladies night here, but I mostly come wednesdays for the salsa and bachata lessons. The avant garden ballroom academy is super patient in their free 30 minute class, and its always something different each week. DJ Quico plays a mixture of music all night to dance to. If your not interested in the dancing they do have pool tables and t.v.s on the other side. I have tried their sweet potato fries here, they are delicious.

We stopped in for a drink and a snack while waiting for a train. The library theming was a pretty thin veneer over a standard sports bar. Beer selection was just OK with very few locally brewed options. Green chili cheese fries were pretty good but the cheese sauce was lacking. Waitresses were wearing less than some exotic dancers do. This might appeal to some, but didnt impress me or my wife.

Decent atmosphere, great sound system. Prices are aligned with your typical bar/club and small cover charge to get in. Dance floors fairly small but theyre adequate. Servers are friendly enough. Nothing truly unique or over the top but certainly not issuin lacking either.

I wasnt there long enough but seems like a cool spot. The servers did look bored.

Great sports bar viewing. The food was pretty good but not outstanding. Not bad for sports bar stuff. Cute girls in short skirts as servers. Lots of TVs. Came to watch NCAA basketball.

Stopped by just to check it out and was pretty impressive. Cool library them with plenty of areas to hang back with pool tables and great music. Not too loud but enough to feel it.

I rented out the VIP with bottle service I only got to drink two drinks and a shot until I got kicked out. They played music late , never gave me my bottle of champagne I paid for and they never refunded me my money or explained why I wasnt allowed back it. So I took all my friends and myself to all the other clubs where they were happy to take my money and didnt get kicked out. And I got VIP and bottle service everywhere else. So I dont recommend spending a penny here, its not worth waiting your time or money.

Very unique place with good food and great service

Recently visited The Library Bar. It was a Friday night and we were able to get right on without a wait, which is a plus. But the DJ last night was a mess. Random selection of 80s, early 2000s, and Hispanic music. Not even any of the hits from those genres. I mean, really random songs you can kind of recall being on the radio, but nothing that makes you want to get up and dance. Nice bar to hang out, but not to party.

Cute little bar with actual library books!! The staff is trendy and friendly and they have pretty decent drink specials. There are also sooo many TVs available for any of your sports needs!

I enjoyed watching the super bowl here. Friendly atmosphere. Great bar keeps.I will return!

We had very good food, but I must add that wed been back-country camping and this was our first real meal in 8 days. However, it was tasty. I did think that our waitress, whose buttocks were completely exposed due to the skimpy uniforms worn there, really should have had a food server handle our food. Just saying, it might just be me, but Im not comfortable with food safety when my server is nearly naked from the waist down.

All I can say is excellent service. They have great food. The establishment seems to cater to the men. First time there with wife. Just being honest if you have a jealous female companion. You may not want to take here her with you. Great place. Cute waitress wearing dasiy dukes short shorts

We were turned away at the door, because one of us didnt have identification (all of us over 50). We were told it is state law (we didnt have to show id at the casino).We had to go back home and return again. My friends green card was heavily scrutinized. The music was good, and the atmosphere was pleasant (dance floor is too small).I didnt pay for drinks (and I dont drink), so I have no comment. The barback forcing his way through the crowd was annoying, since it was overcrowded already (a simple excuse me would go a long way).

Wonderful books all stacked so beautifully. The atmosphere is casual and relaxed. The waitresses are friendly and attentive. The food is tasty and the drink choices are extensive.

Great service and a hot atmosphere at this downtown Albuquerque bar. From a visitors perspective, this was one of the most happening places at nighttime. We stopped in during the day and loved looking at the cool decorations inside and enjoying our drinks and eye candy as well.

This was the best place I stopped at while bar hopping around here, recommend.

Come later than earlier if you want a crowd. Theres usually a cover. So, good luck. The drinks are good. I go to dance. Theres a lot of other places in the area that are good as well.

I had the grilled fish tacos. By far the best Ive ever had. Service was awesome. Jamie was great.The atmosphere was like a library for adults. Played 80s rock n roll...loved it!

I liked the layout of the bar and rest of the building, the fact you can smoke outside on the sidewalk is a plus. It was my fist time there and it wasnt really my type of crowd and the shots/drinks were a bit pricey but I had a good time overall.

Good food, good vibe. Clean. Nice place to spend an hour or two just chilling and watching Central Ave.

Nice atmosphere. Went with my pi of town friends and nobody was disappointed. The blonde pirate waitress (Halloween time) was excellent and attentive. Will return.

I love coming here on Wednesday night for salsa night. Theu teach you different dances and then they let you be free. The security is top notch for the people that come in and are always so friendly.

Food, service and environment is top notch. 5 star if the no cuts or colors rule doesnt bother you.

I wish I could remember my waitresses name because she was awesome!!!

In a rough area, lots of street people making sitting outside an interesting patio experience. We chose to not eat there, and left with people yelling and chasing us. No, I’m not kidding, we felt threatened.Drinks were good, service was great, location sucks.

Good Place. Latin Music every Wednesday

This place is entertaining. Mostly men attend the sports bar side during game time. The ladies are extra thick and sexy to look at.

Food was good, service a little slow but not too bad. Great drink specials but limited variety when it comes to craft beers.

Wait. Why do I have to review?

The drinks are tasty and the staff is nice. Before 10 its a bar style place that is good for talking. After that its a club style place and they open a second bar and dance floor. Its crowded but fun. Bonus if you like wait staff in their skimpy clothes.

Great time but the bar staff has preferences when it comes to service

Came in for a couple of drinks. Five stars for the music + videos they had. Iron, Cult, Def Lepp.

Had a great time for nye with my fiancé, they played reggaeton for half the even tho, my only complaint lol

Great staff amazing food and drinks

Such a unique atmosphere, I think its super cool books line the walls. We went on a trivia night so that was fun. Drinks were great. Waitresses could wear some more clothes, there was more skin than a Hooters.

The atmosphere is as it suggests, it looks and feels like a library but for adults. Which for a book nerd is wonderful. Their drinks and food are well priced, as well as delicious. I highly recommend the steak fries.

Awesome food and service! Great music!

Great food... good beers... awesome reading material as always!

Went to girls night out had bought VIP which didnt do any good cause everyone stood in front of our table but it was fun

Briana was a very nice person. Was pleasant to talk to

The place has a good vibe. The bouncers are friendly and welcome their returning customers, and the bartenders are attentive and friendly as well. The crowd varies depending on the night and promotions they have going on. Jason at the door is a good first impression for the place, and Justine behind the bar makes great drinks.

Place is great to go have fun the only problem some bartenders demanding tip cmon

Nice relaxing atmosphere. good spot to chill right in the middle of everything else. first time there will go back. had wings and philly. on pount

Fabulous drinks, food and service!

I wanted a bar with cool, old books. I got a sexy librarian themed restaurant. The women who work here deserve everything they earn and more for putting up with creepy patrons and a lazy boss. I’ve worked food service for over a decade and I know what kind of a place this is.

Typical club sceen. Nice bartenders and staff. Service was fast when we visited.

Friendly bar. Very visually appealing staff. Friendly crowd.

Good service, good wings, and good price.

The Library Signature burger is bomb! Wings are pretty good. Service is hit & miss, you either end up with a really great waitress or a snobby one who is in the wrong line of work. Overall great place for dancing fun and entertainment ranging from trivia game night to sip & paint or male review show. Check it out!

Wish I could give this place 10 stars!!!! The manager JUSTIN was amazing!!! Hes not watching from the corner...he was helping customers, assisting servers....the whole nine yards. Honestly, I havent had service at bar this good...probably ever. Our server was outstanding as well. Ill will 100% be back and highly recommend this place for a drink, a meal, or a ball game.

Its a nice place to chill. Good environment. Beautiful ladies.

To the captivating girl serving jello shots tonight: We had a great connection. Im kicking myself for not exchanging contact info before leaving. If you read this, tell me what grocery store I shop at. Id love to take you out and treat you to a coffee and an afternoon of conversation.

Cool place with good food and drinks and great service.

Get the SF 7k IPA. Bartender was so nice and fun to talk too. Highly recommend.

Great atmosphere, great service

Excellent Service, And Atmosphere Lots Of Fun .

Very slow service. Water, drinks, and appetizer served very timely. Took over half an hour and had to flag the manager down and still took another 10 minutes. Food very good after we got it. Atmosphere is absolutely amazing. I will definitely give them another chance.

My wife and I went just to use our voucher we got. Ordered chili cheese fries. They were good.

Two stars because I like the idea of a library-themed bar and the space certainly has potential. Unfortunately theyre just using it to try to out-sleaze Hooters. There are posters of scantily-clad women selling beer covering the walls like at Kellys liquor store. The waitresses must need counseling because they went to work without any pants on, which doesnt seem sanitary or safe in food service. Our waitress seemed offended that we made eye-contact with her instead of openly staring at her chest like shes accustomed to. Anyway she made me wait 20 minutes for a beer and 40 minutes for tacos. The place is perfectly tailored for creepy old guys who enjoy leering at young women.

Drinks are ok. Kinda on the expensive side. Atmosphere is ok....as long as you like hanging out with 95% men...

Friendly people good service good guac but not enough

More of a bar than a grillBut definitely worth checking out. Super friendly staff and it is priced right.

Not what I expected to walk into with my father. The food was just ok but the view was worth it!

Good vibe good menu good service

Has a stage for live music. Plenty of pool tables to enjoy a game of pool. Staff is friendly.

Quick and quirky. Draft beer is tasty. Dont bring your kids here.

So they where putting up promos that they will be open on Christmas night and it was all over the radio so me and a couple of friends head out there and they where close no light on anything I just wished that they put something up saying that they aren’t open it would of been really helpful

Great service friendly staff. Great drinks as well

Place is a great night starter. The prices for alcohol are perfect. They have a good selection of beers and alcohol. The food is also pretty tasty. The staff is friendly and attentive. At night it turns into a nightclub atmosphere. Overall I reccomend coming in.

Friendly waitressas, decent food and good drinks. The outdoor patio is a huge bonus.

Cool theme. sexy waitstaff. okay prices.

Very nice staff. Food not so much flavor.

Always feel safe, great atmosphere, good music

4 star for the Cool decor! I was there for paint night and asked for a glass of water. Im the only one that got a tiny plastic cup. The others got a full glass! The server never came back so I wasnt able to order anything else. The food others ordered smelled and looked good.

Good food and drinks and nice people working there.

It was a very interesting place. Out of the ordinary

This is Albuquerques only place for the best grill & bar! They continue to attack many to the downtown arena! Their team is more that awesome!

Nice peaceful place to have a cocktail 5 in the afternoon

I LIKE NICE butts & GREAT beer so I am going back again......GREAT place 4 beers & food.....

Server was sarcastic and in a rush for us to pay so she could go home. But we still left a tip.

We went at lunch, so parking wasnt too hard to find. The menu looked good, but the actual food was very... dull. The fries were good, but the burger (although large) was probably the blandest meat Ive had in a long time. Not even pepper and ketchup helped. Just really disappointing for bar food.

Some people batch about drinks, there the same people carrying miniatures in the bathroom.i have been going here for years. Never have any problems. Yes if the servers are busy there going to be slow. If you want better service , tip nice up front, like we do from back east...try it.

Really cute set-up with the library books and servers dressed up as school girls. Had the Mediterranean salad which was decent. Place is dead for brunch (11am) on a Saturday, which was good in my personal opinion. However, food did take awhile to be done. Approx 25-30min wait. Overall, it’s aight.

Love this spot, as always beautiful women.

Bety good Service and food.

My drink had a big in it, fish was awful the very small bite I took. I will never go to this place again! I do not recommend it either. Manager took 25% off bill when he shouldve just made the meal on the house. I left it all after the one very small bite.

Great service and great food. Try the green chili stew!

Love that they legitimately have books on shelves. They dont seem to be cataloged, but its still a great place to enjoy a beverage! Also, their wings are pretty great!

Had a great time dancing, the drinks were good. I love getting vodka crans here the bar tenders are super sweet all the time! The dance floor does get pretty packed at around 11:00/ 11:30 its pretty vacant before that.

Great atmosphere. Girls are really nice. Staff in general chill and welcoming.Also, has food menu. Great place. First time in ABQ except for passing through and it caused a good impression.

Always excellent service management is very nice and excellent

I love their Wednesday nights here! Its popping and so much fun

The service during the day was the best natasha is fantastic

It was awesome. I like the cover name. The wings were fantastic,the server filled my coffee right on point. There was no getting upset that I only drink coffee and water like back in Florida. Awesome place.

Fell in for a cold beer on an afternoon. It kinda wants to be a classy joint but the naughty librarian outfits of the waitresses has it coming up short. Not quite a dive bar but not top shelf. Cold beer, window seats. Still enjoyed it.
