Great shows, but tiny venue. Not very accessible for those with disabilities. If you do happen to make it to the bar, they have their famous jello shots.

A highlight of downtown Ptuk, this dive bar has embraced live music & art, so you get an interesting mix of local scruffians, crusty war stories, & youthful artsies.The old building looks like it might collapse down on the bar, but thats part of the fun!

Plenty of parking and really cool bar. Its just very narrow inside so you cant fit a lot of people and it gets cramped quick.

Review №28

I highly recommend the open mic nights every 2 to 3 times a month (on a Wednesday) only because you get 15 minutes, which is more time than the usual open mics I go to

I would love to give them 5 Stars however it seems like they are not interested in rebuilding the Pawtucket community and more concerned about competition and therefore make unfounded and racially biased comments towards their neighbors.
