Double Inn Lounge
This bar is like Christmas. Its like when your grandma wraps a present for you in that really ugly wrapping paper and you just get a bad impression about the gift inside. On the outside, this bar screams "s#@thole" but on the inside it is actually pretty nice for what it is. We weren't too stoked on this area of town...its not ghetto, but its definitely not a rich people's neighborhood, and the flood didn't help. Nonetheless, we have long since stopped caring about the location of the bar...we just didn't expect much. Upon entering we see a pretty big place, with a TON of dartboards and silver strike bowling games. On top of the usual silver strike games there was also additional TV screens which allowed the spectators to see the games being played easier. It almost felt like you could do real bowling games here head to head, but we didn't try as there was already a pretty good crowd of people playing. We ran into someone else we knew there and they said they had come just for the silver strike, so I guess thats a pretty big draw. With that said, the bartender was pretty terrible. I don't know if he was the owner, or just an old man who really didn't care about getting drinks for us, but we had planned on ordering food, and after waiting 20 minutes for him to return, we decided against it. (P.S. we sat at the bar, and he was frequently 5 feet from us, but refused to make any kind of eye contact with us.) After our beer sat empty for a good 5 minutes, he came and asked for a second round. We obliged, but weren't too keen on staying around much longer. Overall, I would actually return to this bar, because it really seemed like it fit our style alright. I can't hold one bartender's bad service against the whole bar, even if it was the owner (maybe)
