Pickle Barrel

I was in there twice this week for some end of the day drinks.



The first time it was great and i was helped by a brother-sister team of barback and bartenderess in finding some local food to take back to my hotel.



The second time (Saturday night) was great until it was ruined by a short-chubby drunken moron wearing a Yankee's cap and arty glasses who came in at closing acting like a horses you know what. Instead of saying nicely to my friend and me, "Finish up guys, it's time to get out of here" He acted like he owned the place, and made snide comments using foul and threatening language . After I asked the bartenderess if I should take this guy seriously, I had to use my best "people skills" to quell a possible altercation between this guy and my admittedly silly friend. Previous to this, we had a great time chatting it up with many people in the place including the staff, and we had such a good time we decided not to move on.



But, I will not go back, and if someone is reading this who is actually in charge of this bar, tell the guy in the stupid Yankee's cap not to check on "his bar" while he is drunk and out of his mind. It seemed to me like he didn't meet any chicks that night, so he came into this place where he has some authority (I have no idea how) and wanted to show all of us "who is the boss."



How the nice barback (the brother from a few nights before) and the Bartenderesses (a new one who had great taste in music and was superb at making us feel comfortable) deal with this goof is beyond me.



And for the record, in my life the number of times I have been thrown out of a bar= zero. Number of times I've been in a fight= once in 8th grade.



This guy was a lame turkey.



And if you are an owner and am wondering why I went to the trouble to sign up to post this on every review site I can find, then...you know how jerky your little jerk manager was. Worst experience having a beer in my life!
