So, my wife and I thought we'd give it a try. So glad we did! We sat at the bar, even though there was plenty of seating, and were addressed by the server promptly. We ordered a chicken sandwich to share and the soup flight. The sandwich was great and the soups were really great! All three of them. I had a really good huckleberry cider and my wife a citric IPA. We both like our drink. As a bonus, they have several TV's to watch sports games on. They have a small patio for the warm days. We will be back for sure to enjoy good food, service and a fun time.

It's basically pub food and they had the doors all open and it was so chilly outside so we were just in a constant draft and cold. I wouldn't return...

The toasted ravioli was good, the oxtail in the stew was great, but we weren't a fan of the cookie dough. We came back because of the elote mac and cheese we had during Mac & Cheese Festival. The noodles this time were unique and held the sauce really well! Super yummy! The spanish flan was definitely the star of the show. We were skeptical at first, but it ended up being the best flan we've had in a while. Delicious, and so creamy it was almost like icecream. We could eat multiple helpings. If their regular menu featured more items like these that do a great job of celebrating different cultures, we'd absolutely be regulars.

$20 for Weak Drinks, Free Bullying Included…read more Backwoods charges $20 for Capri Sun in a shot glass and throws in high school bullying for free. If you enjoy paying $20 for cocktails served in shot glasses while being ridiculed by the staff, this may be the perfect spot for you. The bartenders gossip more than they pour, mock customers to score points with their clique, and serve drinks so weak you'll wonder if the vodka evaporated on the way to the glass. Backwoods Bar is a great place if you've ever wondered what it's like to pay fine-dining prices for mocktails in shot glasses while being insulted for asking for regular-sized drinks. It's less a bar and more Mean Girls: Dive Bar Edition. Save your money -- CDA has plenty of places where the drinks have alcohol and the staff left high school behind.

I have been a loyal customer at Lakers Inn for years and have always loved the regular staff, which…read moreis the only reason I'm even taking the time to write this. What happened tonight was beyond unacceptable. I brought a group in to celebrate our niece's 21st birthday. The second we walked up to the bar, the bartender--an absolute piss boy--already had a nasty, cocky attitude. He was openly mocking customers while laughing with his little boytoy sitting at the bar, clearly more interested in performing for his friend than doing his job. We politely asked for a pitcher of Hazy. He immediately snapped, "WHICH BEER? Are you literally even using your ears?!" We calmly repeated that we wanted the Hazy. He then yelled, "Yo, are y'all fucking deaf?" We were visibly shocked and confused, still trying to communicate clearly while being verbally abused. He then proceeded to pour the wrong beer. When we said, "Sir, we said the Hazy," he threw a tantrum--dumped the beer out aggressively, threw his hands up, and got visibly angry like a child being corrected. He then screamed, "I SAID HOW MANY GLASSES--CAN'T YOU HEAR?!" The entire time, his boytoy was laughing hysterically, and the bartender kept looking over at him for validation like a middle school kid trying to impress his crush. It was humiliating, uncomfortable, and embarrassing to witness. When he finally asked what else we wanted, we were ordering a Malibu pineapple for our niece. As we quickly double-checked with her, he screamed again, "Hurry the fuck up and tell me what you want." Immediately after, he and his little friend celebrated--laughing, dapping each other up, and acting like being a complete asswipe to paying customers was the highlight of their night. For context, we are bartenders ourselves who work down the street. We are patient, respectful, and extremely generous tippers--especially to industry staff. We don't expect smiles or special treatment, but we do expect basic human decency. What we experienced was vile, aggressive, and completely unprofessional. This piss boy should not be allowed behind a bar, and frankly appeared intoxicated or otherwise unfit to be serving alcohol. One employee single-handedly ruined what should have been a special night and seriously damaged the reputation of a place we've supported for years. Do better.
