Describing this place in one word would be: FUN!!! I'm shocked that nobody else has reviewed this spot yet. Maybe they were trying to keep it a secret? Welp, SORRY about that! 25th St Bar is about to get exposed todaaaay!
Literally haven't had this much fun in months! Haven't drank like this in months... haven't had this many shots since last year. This bar just rectified every little "young" bone that I still have left in my body. Because let's face it y'all: I'm gettin' old! But, they had me partying like I was 25 again!
I absolutely LOVE the vibes here! Everyone is friendly and they all were enjoying themselves. There's a pool table in the back, 4 TV's at the bar, a nice little dance floor in the front. Literally something for everyone! The bartender was so freakin' fun! Didn't get his name, but he kept us entertained for most of the evening. We unknowingly came during one of the owner's birthdays and she was giving out shots to everyone.
Lawd have mercy, I couldn't handle it. I actually had to refuse after the second shot. I know my limit, and they took me there. Unfortunately, one guy didn't know his limit, and he fell out of his chair and ended up laid out on the floor. It was kind of comical but I also felt embarrassed for him all at the same time. Him falling out of the chair just keeps rewinding in my head.
We both had a couple beers when we got here since we had already been drinking earlier. But, I did end up having a Cosmo before the night came to an end. It was beautiful! Served in a cold martini glass with a lime wedge on the side. It tasted amazing too! I need to come back to try out some more cocktails.
It was a Friday night and they were playing some great African music! By 2 am, everybody was on the dance floor. We didn't end up leaving until around 3 am! Such a fun night! I should mention that there is a $10 minimum to use your card and they also serve Ethiopian food but their chef is currently out on medical leave until further notice.
I'm so glad we ended up coming here! It was a great way to end the night. Looking forward to many more visits in the future.
