A theme bar that seems to coast on the fame of the original TV show than actually do anything special itself.
We came in one evening (as casual fans of Twin Peaks) just for a few drinks. Ultimately, we only had one because of the overall vibe. Awesome aesthetic, but that's about it.
This place has seen better days. The downstairs was probably really cool 10 years ago, but now it's rundown and faded. Not like the photos (and you're not allowed there if there is show, even to look, so make sure to check ahead of time if that is something important for you to see.) The back room "diner" of the groundfloor is an odd vibe, and not in a TP sort of PNW 90s weird. Just... meh. Again, rundown and faded. Lightbulbs missing, dirty, etc. A lack of upkeep and care, basically. A lot of the decor is (was) cool, but I don't even know how to explain why it didn't hit for me. It was packed with people though.
The best is the decor in the front room. But nobody ever seems to sit there, except us. And the surly, cold bartender. I thought maybe that was just part of the gag that he was acting off and weird, but it turns out "rude" and "bad mood" seemed to be his natural state. Don't expect cool cocktails here. I ended up with an expensive tequila soda. Beer and mixed drinks.
The cherry pie looked like it was from the 1990s. Maybe it's fine early in the day, but it did seem at that time of night that it was a week-old. We didn't chance it. Nobody else there was eating either.
Great theme and awesome decor (once upon a time), but left to slight disrepair and surly staff made this an unfortunate and unexpected bust for us.
