This bar is One of my favorite bars in the city!!! Service is always great, Best Bartenders around…read more Never a long wait to receive your drinks. Regulars are very nice. Never closed. Open rain, sleet, or snow!!! No food but ask for a hungry menu call order in and they deliver it to you. Thirsty Bartenders do not work at hungry... lol... so if they forget the ranch you have to walk over or call lol

I would say this is easily the worst bar in Winston. The noise is way too loud and food is mediocre…read moreat best. Plus makes living downtown a nightmare due to constant yelling during weekday nights.

Such a fun vibe here! The outside area is so relaxed and nice in the warmer weather. The bartenders…read moreare knowledgable and nice. They make the drinks strong. Speaking of drinks theg are delicious! I went with friends for a groove lab music show and had a blast! Drinks were flowing, music was fun, parking was easy, all around good experience. The only thing I did not like was the weird bathroom.

We always have a good time dancing here (mainly Saturday nights). There is group of local DJs that…read morehave EDM events here sometimes and theses you can't miss! The drinks are good and priced consistent with Winston-Salem. The inside is rather small but there is a patio/lounge area with a firepit. Most times I have been it was free to get in but when they have special DJ nights, entrance is usually $10. Glad there is somewhere to go downtown to dance to non-country music! you have to walk into the dance area to get to the restroom (just like Joyners) but the inside has a dark vibe with some tables that light up and the alcohol wall at the bar is a masterpiece. There are seats behind the DJ table and I'm not sure why that area isn't used; the whole building can probably hold 60 people dancing at the same time. But all-in-all, it's a lively place, and yes, it gets happening after midnight, as to be expected when there is a DJ in the house. Just walk to Euphoria after you see a show at Ramkat or Wise Man and dance till dawn! (not really but at least 2am)

We stopped in the bamboo lounge on a whim while we were just doing a little bar crawling in…read moredowntown Winston. We were so glad we did. Everything was decorated super cute for Christmas. And when I say, everything was decorated, literally everything was decorated. It really got us in the spirit. Our bartender was super fun. She took the time to chat with us and get to know us. The drinks were all served in the cutest little Christmas themed cups and mugs. We were really excited to see that they had red stripe because that's kinda hard to find around here . Their signature drinks were delicious. We definitely wanna go back here again to see what it's like when it's not decorated for Christmas. We've already recommended it to lots of friends.

Great tiki bar with many different options available other than rum drinks. Daily drink specials…read moreavailable. Nice unique seating area downstairs along with a upstairs seating area as well. Bar area seating too. Drinks were good!

This may be the best dive bar I've ever been to…read more It's tiny - about just enough room for a bar - but it kind of spills out into the space next to it? We met a couple of cool dudes, one who was a huge dolphins fan and the other was a PhD who didn't look the part. I think our round of drinks was $13 for 4 people.

Don't get me wrong when I say this, but when I tell you, it's a dive bar... It's a dive bar. We…read moreweren't sure if we were gonna fit in with the rest of the clientele because they seemed like regulars, but everybody was super nice and welcoming. The bartenders were hilarious. They had a great selection of beer and drinks. It's a small little place, but they had some outdoor seating and a window where you could come up and order. I'm not gonna say it's somewhere that I would go all the time, but I probably would pop back in there if I were downtown

Got to visit the Ramkat again recently for Somewhat Petty, a Tom Petty cover band out of Asheville…read more I really enjoy going to shows at the Ramkat. It's small, making for more intimate performances, but not too small, so they get some decent acts coming through. They offer a full bar with beer, mixed drinks and even THC seltzers. They've got some tables and seating, though you have to pay extra for the seating. Ramkat is located in a great part of town with several dining options, and breweries near by. There are paid lots for parking, but also plenty of free street parking if you arrive early enough.

Great small venue! I recently did generally admission for the Morgan Wade show. There were some…read moreissues with the sound equipment that produced some feedback for part of the show (not sure if that was due to the artist or the venue). However, the quality of the performance more than made up for it. There were a lot of specialty drinks available, but I just opted for some sodas. Service at the bar was friendly and they were making their way through the line quickly. The energy in the space was good and it seemed like a true music lover's haven. One challenge I had was that there didn't seem to be any seating options for general admission. Even offering a couple of off-to-the-side seats for a rest would be handy, since staying on your feet for a few hours straight can get a little tiring. Perhaps that was a possiblity and I missed it. There was seating in the VIP sections though and the price differential didn't seem too dramatic. Seriously, no bad view in the place due to the venue being so small. I'd absolutely recommend checking out a show here!

Frequented this arcade bar almost since its opening in 2017. My dad and I used to go regularly for…read morefather-daughter bonding time, as we are both avid pinball fans! We shared my very first alcoholic drink in this bar when I turned 21. In the past two years, it's become more of a music venue, and some of the games were removed to make way for a stage, but I didn't mind. Always had a great time here with friends and family! Unfortunately, just found out today that this bar is now closed. Sad to hear, but I'm so glad I got to make many happy memories here! Thanks for being an awesome part of my latter teenage years and early adulthood!

I took my friend here for his 21st birthday. We went up to the bar, and I explained to the…read morebartender that it was his 21st birthday, and asked for a drink recommendation. She told him he needed to do a shot of whiskey. I tried to explain that he was drinking for the first time, and needed something mixed. She kept pressuring him about the shot, so he eventually agreed. He ended up throwing up in the bathroom shortly thereafter. The arcade games are really cool and fun to play. I am a pinball fanatic, and was happy to see so many tables. I'm just sorry our evening was ruined by a pushy bartender.

Decided to stop by on an early Friday evening after work. Loved that they had both indoor and…read moreoutdoor seating options. Didn't love the bartender after the first interaction. I had looked at the instagram page before arriving and saw a drink that I wanted to try. I couldn't remember the name when I got there and asked for the drink menu. I was given a look that made me feel like I was wrong for asking for it. One of the patrons was nice enough to show me a basket with menus in it. I ordered the drink and went to find a seat with my friends. Even though it was fairly crowded, there was ample seating. One of my friends ordered the $5 old fashioned and ended up ordering several more. Definitely a great deal for the price and alcohol ratio. I chose the hoopla and then a sidecar. Both were well executed. I wanted to try some of the food, but unfortunately we had eaten before arriving. Several people we spoke to said the jerk wings were a must try so I'll definitely come back for those! Outside of the first interaction with the bartender, the other one was very pleasant and continued to serve us with no issues.
