The bad: unfortunately there is a $10 entrance fee which is oookay but feels weird to be enforced when it is slow. But whatever- What actually made me upset and annoyed was the following: I was sitting outside and got cold. I asked the bouncer if I could run to my car really quick. He said yes. Literally 30 seconds after, I came back and was told I would have to pay a $5 re-entry fee. I laughed because I thought it was a joke - not only was I gone for 30 seconds but I asked for specific permission before even leaving (which I really shouldnt have to but did anyways to avoid anything like this). When he didnt laugh back I realized he wasnt kidding. I asked why I wasnt told about a $5 re-entry fee when I asked to leave and why there was no sign. It felt slimy. I mean seriously- 30 seconds on a slow night when I was told I can "go right ahead". The bouncer turned to the other bouncer and asked him if it were true I asked to leave and he said I didnt say I was going to come back - which is not just not true. Lastly the bouncer said this was already my second warning because I was apparently already told about the re-entry fee when I left with "some guy" minutes prior. I had not left before this. I told him this and he swore he saw me. It just seems a bit ridiculous. It is $5. I was accused of lying. Had I known about this rule and been told about it, I wouldn't have a complaint. It is the principle of being accused of lying. In the end, they let me in without paying the re-entry fee so thank you but it definitely killed the vibe and the whole thing seemed extremely petty. My boyfriend pointed out there was another girl who kind of looked like me and was wearing a green top same as me which might be why the bouncer claimed he saw me leaving earlier but regardless this was completely ridiculous. Its just a shame because again it is a cute fun bar but the whole re-entry fee and being accused of lying put a really bad taste in our mouths.

They do have a popcorn machine so that was a very happy surprise! This bar has good vibes and character!

A Beautifully Filthy Rock & Roll Dive…read more If you love a good, grungy, rock and roll dive bar, Howard's Club H is the place for you. It's got all the essentials: cold beer (only slightly overpriced), bartenders who are usually nice enough, and a smell that can only be described as shame with a hint of stale beer. The bathrooms? Perfectly disgusting, just as they should be in a place like this. The walls are covered in layers of graffiti and stickers, some of it actually pretty interesting if you take the time to look. Live bands crank out music that ranges from surprisingly solid to who let them on stage? But that's part of the charm. This is the kind of bar where you go to lose track of time, drink with strangers who might become friends, and soak in the glorious decay of a true dive. It's not for everyone, but if you appreciate a bar with character, history, and just the right amount of grime, Howard's Club H is a must.
