First time there, I won a raffle for a case of beer. They didn't have a full 12 pack so I'm still waiting for them to get it in.

This has been a family go to spot for my family for many years. We know all the bartenders and the owner. Over the past couple years the service has gotten pretty bad. You order anything other than a beer and you will get eyes rolled at you. Recently I was in there enjoying my night, and a customer I've known for years (A grown man) completely degraded me in front of everyone, and the bar tender (whom I've known forever) sat there and let it happen. It really put into perspective what kind of place this is! I'm not saying I'm perfect, but no way did I deserve that! Don't get me wrong, there are a couple great bartenders left. But I will NEVER step foot in there again after 20 years. UPDATE...after 5 months I decided to give it a shot, a friend wanted to !eet up there. The owner says to me he read my google review and was rude about it. I told him I said nothing negative about him. He then tells me "as long as you feel good about yourself, thats all that matters". Then walks away. Now rather than trying to rectify the situation, or even apologize for how his staff treats people, he gets mad at the person who addressed it publicly. Well this review could have gone a completely different way, but apparently its OK to treat people like garbage! Mistake #2. Sorry, not sorry!

The bartender hates the customers if they ask for anything other than rail drinks or beers. But honestly, that is part of the charm. I've been coming here for 20+ years & she's always been there. & her consistency is excellent. The drinks are reasonably priced & tasty.
This is definitely a townie bar. If you like that vibe you will 100% enjoy your time here.

Had a VERY rude waitress tonight. My hubby and I walked in and wanted a drink and she didn't say a word to us not even a hello or smile. My hubby asked how she was and she replied very short and rude FINE! she rolled her eyes non stop at us when we asked for another drink and one in a bigger mug, she shook her head and made it seem like we inconvenienced her by asking for another drink. Will NOT be back!

My late husband I would go to Ole's for karaoke on Thursday nights. He never did karaoke till he met me. He became a karaoke junkie after I introduced him to the fun of karaoke. May he rest in peace and fly high with his eagles! You will be miss by many but not forgotten!

If I could I'd put negative stars. Bar tender has bad attitude about making drinks she never heard of, and complained when we played something other than oldies on juke box. Never stepping in there again.
