Damn good vodka tonics
Rudy M.

Ive heard of this place and finally decided we would give it a shot. Its a small place but we found two seats at the end of the bar. We met the owner, who is a Steelers fan, so that worked out with my girlfriend. The man at the helm poured some damn good drinks and they were overall terrific. They have a scratcher machine and we decided to have a little fun while enjoying good drinks. We look forward to the day we can go in and day drink and play more scratchers and win next time.

Stopped in for a drink after eating at Marri's Pizza a few doors down. This wasn't my first visit to Poor Dick's by any means as I've come through at various times with friends during the last two decades. Tonight I got a bottle of Coors Light and OMG it was so refreshing and ICE COLD!!! Wow. So good. Delightful. I then noticed the beer fridge and it said it was 27°! Pretty reasonable too for drinks out at a bar, especially considering these days. Our tab total was $12 for the 2 drinks. $4 for the beer and $8 for the Captain and Coke.

Not as good as it used to be, but still a cheap place to get a drink. Bummer the dart board is gone. Ditto for Sammy.

So, this bar has some good vibes. It's an amazing dive bar. Their best bartender is definitely Nikki. She's fun real and super chill.

I really wanted to love this place. The vibe was fantastic...great music, a stylish ambiance, and…read morean impressive selection of specialty craft cocktails. It's clear the owners put a lot of thought and creativity into making their cocktails the centerpiece of the experience. That said, the execution didn't live up to the concept. The menu appears to rotate regularly, and while the drinks were certainly unique, most of the cocktails we tried were hit or miss. At roughly $22 per drink, I expected more balance and refinement. One cocktail started with flavors reminiscent of an Old Fashioned, but after the initial sip, the combination of bitters and fruit syrups created an unpleasant cough syrup like finish. We tried a mocktail as well, and it was mostly ice and soda water, with what seemed like a collection of syrups doing most of the heavy lifting. The drinks were creative, but many of the flavor profiles felt disjointed rather than intentional. The biggest issue, however, was the bar service and sanitation practices. I watched a bartender place a cucumber garnish into a glass using his bare hands, touching the entire garnish in the process. He then continued to take credit cards, cash, and other items before stuffing ice into additional drinks with his bare hands. Whether or not this technically violates health code standards, it certainly wasn't appetizing to watch and left a poor impression. Parking is another challenge. There is no dedicated parking, and unless you get lucky, expect to park several blocks away and walk. Overall, the atmosphere is a lot of fun and the cocktail menu is ambitious, but the drinks didn't justify the price point, and the sanitation concerns were hard to overlook. I wouldn't rush back, especially given the cost and parking difficulties.

This is definitely a place with a very Long Beach vibe (so it really depends on what you think…read moreabout Long Beach in general). The seating is a little funky, but the drinks are solid. The food is definitely bar food that's ideal for late night eats while buzzed, and the service is fast! Food: 3.5/5 Drinks: 4.5/5 Service: 4/5 Ambiance: 4/5 Value: 3.5/5 Overall: 4/5
