Great Neighborhood bar.
1) Great drinks 2) Hot bartenders 3) "Friendly" patrons This bar does tend to skew older 30 - 40 types. Levi / stocky types. I had a great time every time I went in. It is definitely worth staying for a drink or 2. Oh yeah.. they pour strong too. You may just grow chest hair after drinking the drinks. ;-) NOTE: the bathroom can be a little bit "friendly" at times.
Good bar
The bar is fun. Usually a little too dark for me, but the people are very friendly and the staff is nice.
DJ Attitude. Andy's great! The other guy is unprofessional.
Can't request a song. Even with a tip. In fact, he'll delete what you request. Not a smart business idea. There are other bars... I hope the owner considers employing this guy. I loved Daddy's. Even have some of the previous owners clothes. Business 101: the more fun people have, the more they'll stick around and drink. There are other DJs that I'm sure would like to create the sense of masculinity and community that 440 is.
