Thank you to everyone who gives us great service to make our experiences memorable. If you can make it to a Tiki takeover with their drink selections it's a wonderful time.

It's been many years since I have been to the Fox. The last three times were for graduations. I was…read morereally looking forward to seeing Anjelah Johnson yesterday, It definitely didn't disappoint. She was absolutely hysterical. I laughed the whole time. Good for the soul! My friends have seen her four times now. The bathrooms are located upstairs, so that's a pain. The place was so packed. They have a very strict policy about cell phones. You can't video tape or take photos. You will be escorted out and receive no refund. The last couple minutes, they turn on the lights and you can take a video or photo. I look forward to returning to this venue. * The opener for Anjelah was Mal Hall. Not my cup of tea. He screams loudly, and I just didn't enjoy the humor. 6/21/25

World Records is not just a record store, it is also one of the best music venues in town, if not…read morethe best since The Crystal Palace folded. For the size of the place to the down right decent ticket prices, Pat and his crew do a bang up job time and time again. I've seen a lot of music in my life, and some of the best shows have been at World Records, I'm talking artists like Mindi Abair, Sugaray Rayford, Ana Popovich, and Selwyn Birchwood, just to name a few. This is top notch talent all the way! Great acoustics, small and comfy, it's just an excellent place to see music. The fact that the artists come out and sign autographs etc. at the end of the show is the kind of experience you can rarely find any more or any place else. Kudos to Pat for all the hard work and effort he has put into this place. No matter who is playing, it's really hard to not have a good time in such a great place! Thanks!!

They also have a very cool picture room that they redecorate for every season and holiday. It's just a great place to go to have a drink and hang out.

The place was glowing land they were playing 90s R&B make you say, "I don't see nothing wrong..." We were instantly hooked. The bartender with the cool mustache made amazing drinks! We right away ordered mezcal drinks SO good! The bartender knocked it out of the park with every drink. He mentioned he had 10 plus years of experience and seriously he crafted all his drinks to perfection with a lot of gusto ! His girlfriend was the sweetest! She gave us a little tour, which made the whole experience feel extra special. Honestly, this place is such a vibe! It's a gorgeous space, amazing people, great drinks, and best lounge music! What's not to love?!

Tiki Ko is constantly holding weekly meet-ups for tiki bar fans and I highly recommend the Explorers Club on Tuesday if you are looking for something to do during the week! They also have Mug Club on Wednesdays and trivia on occasion, so there is a reason to go for everyone! Just make sure you eat before as they don't serve food.

Haven't been in here for probably 15 years. It's changed- a bit. I love Tiki bars and I go to every…read moreTiki bar I can find. It's tiny- like a lot of tiki spots. Decor is nice. Little hidden gems. Lighting is dark with bits color and neon popping through. The Bar Top curves around the bar- there are two booths that seat 5-6 and two short tables next to them- one seats 4- the other will comfortably seat two. There are a few bench style seating areas at the front with some short coffee tables. Think- skater tiki bar. The drinks were good- small menu if you're not sure what you want or are new to tiki. Both sides of the menu are the same menu. There are some nice mocktail options as well- you don't see that often. The service for me is mixed- it wasn't busy- steady but not busy- 1/4 full. I ordered two drinks to start for our table- (no cocktail servers here/not unusual for a small Tiki bar) I asked for a soda water- the bartender looked at me without a word- popped open a can of soda water and walked away. When he walked back by, I asked for a glass of ice- he said nothing and I got an eye-roll huff. I almost left. I don't think providing a glass with ice to pour your canned room temp soda water in, is too wacky an idea to be perturbed by the request. The female who took the order was friendly, smiled and was professional. We got a third cocktail- the Mai Tai. The grumpy bartender was friendlier this time. So, that helped. Maybe he felt overwhelmed and I threw off his groove by asking for water- then a glass... either way- being annoyed wasn't cool. The music.... Wasn't Tiki- it threw off the "Tiki Vibe" and made it feel typical small local bar that serves only Tiki drinks with some Tiki decor. It didn't take you to the land of Tiki- disappointed. Drinks were good.

The Barrel House is the perfect spot for a fun summer night!I loved the country vibe, the spacious layout, and the welcoming atmosphere. Everyone seemed to be having a great time, and the energy made it easy to relax and enjoy the evening. As for the main star of the evening the BEER! My friend and I tried the Big Sur IPA, and it was so refreshing that I had to go back and grab some to go. A big shoutout to Ben behind the bar for holding it for me while I danced by boots off!. So thoughtful touch and great customer service! it's the kind of place that makes you want to come back for another round and another dance! Almost forgot they even have a good track outside I will definitely have to try that next time!

No kitchen, but there's a food truck out front so you won't go hungry. Bonus points for being kid- and dog-friendly -- plus free pretzels!

I so ok, went to pay with my card and he says cash only. Then he points over to an atm, which charges 2.75$ per. Even though the patrons seemed cool, it's cash only but you conveniently have an atm. I call bs, never again. I'd also would like to say, I came here years back and it was cool but take your business elsewhere. I might as well have ordered a soda cause that's basically all I got.
