Chelsea is awesome and I always love going to trivia nights. She is fun and friendly. Melissa (?) has some sort of weird problem with being nice to women patrons. Actively ignored me as she served 4+ men that came up to the bar after me. She has done this to other fem friends of mine. Acts incredibly nice to their bfs in bands while ignoring other women. Very weird vibes and seems like an internal issue that she needs to work on.

So I’m out with my friends last night having a good time. We just chillin having a blast. Servers were nice and respectful. Towards the end we walk out and just hang out talking outside around 1am when they close. But here the kicker tho. Me and a friend walk up asking about jobs and whatever

They may have Beatles album covers on the walls, but the DJ doesn’t seem to recognize the theme of this place. If you like techno pop, you’ll love the roof. I wanted to jump off.

Been going to the Rigby for a while, fell off for a bit and am rediscovering my love for it! I’ve gone to some events upstairs and just last night did trivia in the main bar and it hasn’t disappointed. The cucumber vodka from their house infusions has been a favorite go-to and the bartenders are always a blast.

The inside is mad modern, but the staff is too and we all know that newly found attitude… ordered 1 drink and had about 2% of the service that the band next to us had, that also was supposed to be playing for the half hour we were there. We decided to leave because we wanted to actually enjoy ourselves, went to The arcade bar down the road instead.

I didn’t eat anything but I did see a couple plates of tacos that looked pretty great. All three bartenders that were working even though it was Halloween we’re dressed up and fun even though they’ve been busy. And between the adorable vampire couch and the flamingo wall I absolutely love the place very cute.

We reserved the space upstairs for a birthday party. Chelsey was responsive and fantastic to work with. Matt in the kitchen super helpful and our bartender Morgan was amazing. If you need a private space I highly recommend!

Been here multiple times but it seems they consistently hire bartenders who intentionally choose to ignore their POC (specifically black people) customers. This was my last straw never coming back
