If you are paying by card they up charge you each time. Prices of the drinks are very inconsistent. The vending machine states to put your money in at your own risk. They have no problem taking the money but both the candy bar and chips got stuck and didn't fall. In my opinion the patron's deserve an establishment that is worthy of their hard earned money.

This is a very dark social clique that if you aren't wearing all black, have at minimum 12 tattoos and 6 piercings you might stick out. Non the less we made our way to the bar after talking our way out of a $20 cover charge for a no name performer. Under the guise of we were only going to have one beer and use the bathroom. I have to admit atmosphere was respectful and bartender seemed amused we were brave enough to even be there. We had our beers, a few laughs with the bartender listened to some local talent opener dj's and then on our way. In my day this group were known as goth, today it's Emo. Bottom line we're all people and with a little mutual respect and humor, it's all good. Enjoy. Humanity shouldn't need a disclaimer, just be a good person. Cheers.

It was gooey and melty, not greasy, although not quite as flavorful as the ingredients would suggest. A side salad fresh from the garden with jalapeño ranch was a surprising favorite, and a nice balance. A huge patio offers large seating for groups and play space for the kiddos.

After sitting at the bar and getting a drink I casually scaned the TVs in the search of the game. "We don't have that one" said the bartender, "We don't have direct TV. We have it playing over the radio, use your imagination". I just sat there thinking, 'you gotta' be fuggin' kidding me'. For those that are unfamiliar with Topeka or perhaps struggled in geography, the city sits in between the KSU and KU campuses, about twenty miles away in either direction. How is this even possible? Its like the Earth losing sight of the moon. Anyway, I ordered some corndog popper things because they were out of actual corndogs, whatever. With mustard they were actually 'ok', a tad greasy. If you like darts, this place seems to have a lot of dart players because it had about five or more dart areas set up and a pool table in the back. I'm sure this place has its nights where normal people may drink, students, the unmedicated and those that don't wear t-shirts that display anything nascar, Taz, a hole on the side or armpit or a free cigarette promotion shirt. If your life feels burned out and emptied, tired of waking up in cold sweats in mom's basement starring up at plumbing, drifting cobwebs and rusted bent nails, surrounded by Xmas decorations, neglected bicycles, boxes of things that belong to your sister/brother that lives in New York, San Francisco, Dubai or wherever doing wonderful and interesting things and stacks of 'Muscle and Fitness' from your 'days at the Y' then you are in luck because Oscar's has Keno from the Kansas Lottery! I have often thought that they ought to treat the Keno playing cards with a light minty cyanide strip. Much like a cosmoline spray will the protect important things the suggested cyanide strip will help thin the herd from those that choose to simply end it all. Keno players are all prime candidates. If this place is within walking distance of your home then yes, its worth the walk but I wouldn't make this a driving destination.

So cold that they give you a koozie each time so your hand can stay warm while sipping these beers that have been on ice. You might see some odd pairs making out at their table, people playing jacks on the floor, a guy dressed like Elvis, you name it. So, if you're in Topeka or passing through on I-70, make sure to stop off and take in the diveness that is 20's West.
