The Ringer Pub

As much as I wanted to love this bar based on the theme, it was really lacking in comfort-​ability. There is only one pool table so you have to wait for others to be done to play; too much of the little space that is available is wasted on the beer pong table. We played for a bit and I had to bother other patrons to retrieve the ping pong balls that went astray. Between the bar and seating area you are left with an aisle of walking space, so the entire interior feels cramped and really, very un-​Dude. They are new so maybe they need to grow into themselves a bit. I would still say check it out and form your own opinion. However, for me, the vibe was off.

Sunday night visit: Laid back easy going atmosphere. Great drink specials and freakin awesome pasta with meatballs from heaven. Exactly what we were looking for to end the weekend. Rachel was a courteous nice talented bartender; and maker of the meatballs. beautiful evening to sit on the patio.

First of all. I’m a Lebowski, you’re a Lebowski… I looked forward to checking out a Big Lebowski themed bar in my hometown. While the staff was courteous, the bartender admitted in the first part of our brief conversation that she had neither seen nor appreciated the film. Don’t work at a theme bar if you don’t get it. Now, while I appreciate that this aggression will not stand, the bar was cool. Cheap Caucasians. Table bowling. Beer pong. The staff just needs to get onboard with the whole concept. The movie is playing on two screens nonstop. At the very least pretend that you get it. This ended up being a normal corner bar with nice décor from TBL and cute bartenders. Two of those are easy to find. I just looked forward to geeking out a little and got let down.

Cool new bar with a“Big Lebowski” theme. Both bartenders super courteous and attentive. A lot of TV’s for a small cozy sports bar. They have darts, bowling games, and pool… Good music too. Look forward to coming back since its close to the house. Good mix of ages as well.

I actually went there last Tuesday with a few friends who all work service as well (about 5 of us in total. bar/​restaurant managers). We had been stoked about the prospect of a lebowski themed bar, but were pretty shocked the staff knew nothing about the movie whatsoever and the specials posted to their Facebook page weren’t even on special. The whole experience was kind of a let down. Its a shame because it was a cool idea but it’s just another so called «themed» bar that has some neat stuff on the walls but service, experience and ambiance all left the whole group wanting. 2 stars only for idea and some wall décor was kinda catchy.
Went back the following Saturday to give it a second chance. Place was packed and I recognized some of the staff that wasn’t present on my last visit. I was much happier with service and many of my friends commented that it was a much better experience. It was slammed so I didn’t stay long but I upgraded the stars I initially posted. I’m sure I’ll check it out again. I’m glad I gave it a second chance. I know how the industry goes, so it may have been some early glitches. In any case. I hope the idea sticks around.
