Garden Bar

Nice bar, but nice to update their machines. You have barely see the screen to play games because they are old, sticky and dark. Hopeful, they will get upgraded.

Great place to stay while in Vegas. Center of the strip.

6/18/13 PLENTY OF OTHER GOOD CASINO BARS IN THIS CASINO (Flamingo) I love little casino bars. When the service is good and drinks are at least standard. This bar makes it awkward for the bartenders to be friendly or to even be bartenders. The seats at the bar seem very far from where the bartenders stand. We had trouble getting the bartenders attention and didn't receive friendly service when we did. The drinks we received were average. I enjoyed the gambling machines on the bar. I'd rather play on the Bugsy Bar nearby, (also inside the Flamingo near the strip entrance). They have friendly bartenders and a more lively atmosphere. Drinks were pretty watered down at both spots, but we bring our own alcohol in Vegas, so they're usually the perfect strength with a little doctoring.

We already had our cocktails when we sat down, and the bar was basically closed, but the bartender came over, told us he couldn't serve us, but we were welcome to hang out, which we did! It was nice that instead of being asked to leave, we were treated with kindness. Good job garden bar

Nothing fancy. Quick service and the typical game screens for play. Neither of us were offered a free drink while playing as the bar top said. Little disappointing but the guy was nice.

right in the middle of everything, good bartenders, very comfy seats at the bar. Also they have 3 really nice big TV's above the bar if you're wanting to watch sports.

Takes forever to get served. They are masters at ignoring customers and to have to watch the waitresses talking and carrying on in a corner. I cant believe that casino mamagement dont get rid of these bad staff. Disgusting!!!

Luis from patio bar is an absolute gem , great drinks and very comfy would definitely recommend!!!!

One of the quieter bars in The Flamingo, this is a good place to stop, grab a drink and spend some money on video poker. The bartenders are excellent, especially Roger, Alex, Johnny, and Jose. They are efficient and great conversationalists. Drop by when you are in the hotel/casino, the beer is always ice cold.

The bartender, song, was one of the highlights of my trip. He was extremely affable and right on the money when it came to drinks. We only told him what kind of drink we wanted and he gave us exactly what we wanted! Great company, great service, great bar.

To get my thirst on, I came across this bar to redeem a $25 complimentary *Flamingo* hotel guest voucher. Upon walking up it's a cozy little bar with lighting from the window of the outside pool. This bar has a tropical theme going on and video poker machines at the front bar table for those looking to sip, play, and watch TV. The bartender was nice and my drink was stiff. I ended up getting Kettle and Cranberry and it was a good boozy drink to get before heading out on the strip. =]

The bartender was so incredibly rude! We bought a margarita at the restaurant in the hotel literally 20 ft from this bar then came in here to watch the football game. He called us over to the bar and told us we had to leave. We could not bring drinks from other establishments in here. I said we bought this in the hotel, he said this bar was for paying patrons only and told us to get out. All our friends and family were here drinking and hanging out. He completely humiliated us and treated us like trash. I have no clue how this man even has a job!

PLENTY OF OTHER GOOD CASINO BARS IN THIS CASINO I love little casino bars. When the service is good and drinks are at least standard.

We had trouble getting the bartenders attention and didn't receive friendly service when we did. The drinks we received were as expected and I wasn't sitting in the Flamingo trying to make new friends so the gamblers around me didn't bother me. I enjoy the gambling machines on the bar. I'd rather play on the Bugsy Bar near, also inside the Flamingo near the strip entrance. Friendly bartenders and a more lively atmosphere.

Lobby bar in the Flamingo, stopped here to meet some work friends. Table service didn't seem to happen so got some drinks at the bar and had a nice chat. There was a football game being broadcast and everyone was going nuts, making it hard to hear at times. There wasn't much division with the rest of the casino, as in many of the casino bars, which is less optimal to me since you can't feel like you are in a distinct business.

We came down stairs from the room to grab a drink and the older lady that was bartending had a really bad attitude and didn't make our experience very fun. We were told to put twenty dollars into the machine to get a free drink and after a couple of minutes a gentlemen sat down put a couple of dollar bills into his machine and she gave him a free drink. We left soon after and didn't return to the Garden Bar.

#8 on the National Registry of Places that Suck. I stopped here only to wait for/meet someone. It was over $15 for an orange juice and a weak sauce vodka tonic. Why? There are no white tigers lolling about, no girls in skimpy costumes, just people fresh from the pool trying to decide who's room they are gonna go upstairs and mess up.

This bar situated in the corner of the casino at the Flamingo is nothing to write home about. Your basic Vegas bar in an "old school" casino. I did meet someone there and talked to them for some time, which made me have two drinks. But the service is average and the drink quality is ok. Prices are ok, based on Vegas pricing but they are expensive if you go with normal pricing from where you live. Pass this place up for another bar at Bellagio or The Wynn.

Horrible obnoxious service. Terrible drinks. Doesn't even qualify to have bar tenders. Save your $10 for a drink and use it somewhere to get a decent drink.

The only reason I am reviewing this is to counteract the lame people that wrote a bad review FOR A CASINO BAR. A casino bar, people. It is what it is. Roaming through after losing your house at the poker tables? Need a drink? Here's a bar, with a bartender, and a wall of booze in which you can drown your sorrows. It works. My drinks were delightfully strong. My bartender was extremely nice. It was a great place to chill with a couple of friends, drink, and hang out before we moved along. The next night that we walked by, there was loud dance music and scantily clad young lady dancing on a platform. Drinks, music, AND Vegas entertainment. Would I make this a designated pit stop for all my upcoming Vegas vacations? Of course not. But its a convenient place to grab a quick drink while passing through. Because it is a CASINO BAR. Not a club. Not a party spot... and it doesn't claim to be anything more.

This place sucks, way too expensive for a junky little casino bar. Save your $ and don't buy any drinks here. Also waitresses are lazy and bartender can't make a good drink to save his life!
