    Bank fraud

    Went in on a Monday night to have one round with my girl on our anniversary. Got my beer and her wine, left my card to close out our tab while I hit the mens room. I got a text from my credit card company of a charge for $14.40. I don't mind. THEN I'm given the "customer copy" of the receipt to sign. The charge is $12. I asked why my card was automatically charged my tab plus 20%. The answer was "The machine automatically does that...". I then ask for the merchant receipt. "They're ALL customer receipts." This isn't my first time using any card, at any retailer, with ANY payment processor. No merchant receipt?! Automatic 20%? I WAS tipping more that that. lol Thanks "Velda", even if it was a small amount of money, I'd hate to give it to a thief as gratuity. I should dispute the tip that you gave yourself with my money, I bet you wouldn't try that again.

    The dive bar at PCB you want to go to for a local flavor. Good pour, kind folks, and sufficiently scruffy.

    The owner, Velda, is a major cat rescuer and cats are quite at home (and very friendly) in the bar.

    The girls are FANTASTIC and so entertaining! We are having a blast! They really made this over 40,…read moreplus size beauty feel welcome by inviting me on the bar to dance! I've been to the Daytona location and PCB is soooo much better!!!! Love love love Lindsi

    This bar is absolutely fantastic, it's a really fun party vibe. My biggest issue and the reason I…read morehave a sour taste in my mouth about this place is the bouncers, particularly whoever was checking for IDs on June 20, 2026 around 1:00AM. I'm not originally from Florida, so my Driver's License and ID is from a different state. This individual didn't hesitate to grab my ID out of my hand in fold it in half with the intentions to rip it before I stopped him and told him that I gave him my real ID, and persisted with showing him another form of ID that verified my age. Needless to say, some of the bouncers, like the individual that checked my ID last night, are inexperienced or careless about maintaining a good environment at this bar. But this individual is what set me off. I now have to get my Driver's License replaced because the bouncer didn't care enough to thoroughly check my ID, properly verify its information. No, instead he gave it a quick glance, saw that it was from a different state, and made his mind up that it was a fake. Incredibly unprofessional, and while this is not something that will prevent me from revisiting this place in the future, it is definitely something I will have to keep in mind moving forward. Aside from the bouncers, this place is great. The prices are very fair, the ambience from the indoor dancefloor to the outdoor patio is fun, the bartenders are friendly and welcoming, and they play great music.
