    I'm not sure how the name of the bar relates to anything, as I didn't see any playboys, or cappuccinos........nonetheless, this dive bar is quite the friendly neighborhood dive bar. It's 'Cheers' on another level. I met Sam Malone, Norm, Carla (or maybe Rebecca), and others. It's a very friendly establishment, both by the employees and customers. It truly is a hole in the wall (and has a few in the ladies room). I had no qualms however, about eating there. I wouldn't wear my Sunday best, but felt comfortable in my every day clothes. The reason I was there didn't disappoint me. The fried shrimp was just about perfect. They were huge, meaty, tender; the steak fries were hot, and neither item was very greasy. Really liked the friendliness of this place. Someone else mentioned it being in the 'hood', but since I'm from out of town, I have no idea if that truly qualifies or not. I was there during the day and felt secure. My GPS took me around the Calvary Cemetery, which had some amazing tombstones visible from the road.

    Playboy El Cappuccino is known for some of the best shrimp in town. This is a local favorite and the ULTIMATE dive bar. You will get characters from every walk of life in here. Comes loaded with loud music, Christmas lights all year long, electronic dart boards, jukebox, flat screens, and the old school pull knob cigarette machine. The food is cooked to order. I ordered the tilapia sandwich and it was HOT and Fresh. It came with pickles, onions, hot sauce and a slice of bread. It was great!

    This place is now smoke free! They enforce it too... Also, the music wasn't too loud when I went by yesterday. I tried the catfish and shrimp combo and it was fantastic. It might be my new favorite. Don't let the neighborhood scare you, try this place! How can you be a true foodie if you won't go all over?

    6pc shrimp and fries. My favorite

    Fahrenheit needs to get their old crew back it's not like it use to be when the had an awesome…read morekitchen staff a lady they called Moma Dee Kgm.Tasha,Mr.Rickand Fred what ever happened to them?¿? Moma Dee mad sure you got the right order Tasha made sure your food came out in order Mr.Rick talk to his customers and made sure that you got the right food and offered the best items to buy the food was fantastic when they had that crew where are they now.

    Where do I start? I've been going to this place faithfully…read morefor the past 4 months for $2 taco and margaritas. My very first visit in April was cool, no issues. my next couple of visits, I had to wait over an hour for my tacos. OK no worries, I'm going back because I love the salmon tacos. But those ppl in there can be very rude. Once I had to wait for nearly an hour just for our order to be taken. The staff will walk past you, look you in your face and not speak. HUH??? I would go out of my way to speak to Lucky. He would walk by and say nothing. I feel as a bar owner or Manager, you should speak to eat person that walk thru your doors. but they all walk by and not speak. Two of the bartenders are so rude and unfriendly to some people. They smile and are nice to their friends but rude to new ppl from my experience. I always get 5 tacos and I get a different total each week. Not a whole lot but different. Oh yeah you may not get all of your change back. I was in there 9/2/25, I walk up to order my tacos, the young lady don't say anything to me, so I stand ther for about 4 minutes, she's right there in my face but says nothing. So after about 4 minutes I ask her if she's taking orders because she did say anything to me. So I walk over to place my order with someone else. Keep on mind everyone looks in your face but doesn't speak. so I wait for about 45 minutes after asking her how long would it take. 15 minutes she said. It probably was about 20 minutes which was fine but my food sat up on the back counter for 15 minutes before she realized it was my order. I literally watched my food for 15 minutes in the window. So she finally make eye contact with me, turn around and grab my food while trying to tell me it was had come up. I told her it had been up there for a while and the guy sitting next to me knew it too. The tacos sat there so long they were too soft to eat and enjoy. I noticed how the cooks walk around with kitchen gloves but touch everything outside of the kitchen. I've also watched the lemons and limes to be cut up without then being washed. Gross. I'm done with them. Food not bad, it's the service.
