Friends of ours wanted to play some pool after we had dinner nearby at Lucky Garden, so we did exactly that. It was a slow night and no one was waiting for the table, so we played about 4 or 5 games and had a lovely time. The decor is awesome, the bar is clean, and the staff were friendly. I've always had a good time here, and I enjoy the artwork too!

We also asked for an exchange of quarters and the bartender/staff rudely said "no" because he was "annoyed at the other customers". This is completely unacceptable and for this place to have a 4.9 review doesn't make sense.

We ended up at Maps to have a cocktail and a little snack. The two guys working were friendly. The drinks were good! I forgot to get a picture of the soft pretzel with beer cheese that we served, but it was the biggest pretzel we've ever seen! It said XL on the menu - and it was! The ceiling is covered in big maps. Definitely unique decor. They also have a lot of vinyl there. It's below street level so it's a little dark. But it felt sort of cozy. I don't t know if we'll make it back there on our trip, but I recommend it!

I then told him I am just going to relax and have a drink in the bar. He grabbed my jacket as I attempted to walk through the door and said you never showed me your ID. I told him you never asked before I tried to walk in. I then apologized to him, and I tried to show him my ID. He told me he didn't want to look at it and told me to leave instead. I thought he was just a drunk customer joking around with me before he asked me for my ID, because he didn't identify himself before he grabbed me. I left right away because I didn't want any trouble. I went to Tomaso's Canteen right after and they treated me with dignity and respect. I had a great night at Tomaso's Canteen and the staff was really friendly and welcoming. I highly recommend people avoid Commercial Street Pub, considering there are better bars in the area nearby which will treat you with more respect than Commercial Street Pub.

Even the customers add to the charm -- such an interesting, genuine local crowd. What an amazing neighborhood spot. I definitely won't wait another 12 years to come back.
