I went with my brother in law about 6:30 on a Friday, and was a little surprised that it was not more packed. The food is pretty good and priced reasonably, but I was expecting a bit of a higher end menu for a place like this. They have a great selection of craft beer, which was the main reason for our visit. Some of the beer prices were pretty high (9.00 for a 12oz snifter of founders imperial stout) but again this selection is not available in your average bar. The owner overheard us talking about beer and came over to introduce himself. We talked a bit and he offered a bottle of a hard to find beer he had stashed in the back. I thought this was a pretty cool thing to do, and it made my night. Overall, I had a good time and enjoyed my beer/food. The atmosphere is really weird, kind of like a dance club mixed with a higher end bar. I will be back for the beer list and the burgers, not so much for the music.

Nothing now I came in to have a decent meal and a few drinks...they were out of the drink I ordered and it was the special, then I waited 30 min for a appetizer. Once the food I ordered arrived it was not correct and it was missing items. After sitting for another 30 min for just a burger and fry it finally came out still missing items!!!. I asked for the manager who didnt seem like she cared at all after pointing out several issues...she finally took off the burger and the fries still never came. The owner from the reviews doesnt seem to care as well as from the staffs mouth when I asked for contact info to alert him of the bad service that seems to be common for his establishment. So I will not be coming back here nor referring anyone to this po place (no pun intended)...smh

Okay heres the deal, this place has great beer and liquor selection. Prices are on par with surrounding similar bars. Heres the BUT: the music, the atmosphere, and sometimes the service. The decor looks great and the bar is freshly redone, but wow it is absolutely ruined when you are bombarded with techno or pop music. Also, the entire area is surrounded in TVs, which some people like, but this isnt a sports bar, or is it? Pour House doesnt know what it is, it has a massive identity crisis and its a turn off. Service is also hit or miss, nothing horrible but nothing great. Bartenders get a bit talky with the regulars while Im sitting with an empty glass. I really want to give them 4/5 stars but the music and tvs are brutal and kill the mood and atmosphere.

Were used to having one one waitress serving the entire restaurant by now, but this week was really disappointing. We ordered a meal each, for my wife and I. The meat on my wifes sandwich had to have gone bad. It had a horrible taste, different from the previous time. When telling the waitress she seemed to be less than caring and did not even offer a replacement meal. My wife did not even eat her food. I ordered 16 wings for $14. Not even a great deal, but i wanted them. When it arrived with no sauce i had to order it seperately. When I received the check, it turns out the charge a lot extra for very little sauce. Seems like this is par for the course here as the owner was less than phased with our terrible visit. Never going back.

Extremely disappointed in the service came in tonight for a beer and dinner with my In-laws and waited about 40 minutes for our food, and then ordered my wife food at 8:38pm prior to her showing up and took almost 50 minutes to be served and all I ordered for her was a medium burger. I understand that bars/restaurants schedule people based on the pervious weeks sales but on a Friday night you should have more than two bartenders and two waitresses working in a room of 70+ people I am very disappointed in the service as I use to manage a restaurant that did 3 million plus in sales and even if we had high ticket times I would make sure that my customers didnt feel neglected I do not plan on returning to this pour house

Rudy the owner has done a great job since opening the Pour House. He has turned what was the old DB Coopers into a place that I am proud to recommend to my friends and family. The renovations are outstanding. New lighting and bar area really show how clean he keeps his pub. The wait staff and bartenders very friendly and their service is outstanding. They make you feel welcome and that you are a valued friend coming into their home. The food is a big step up from your typical bar food. The ribs are the best in the area and I would put the burgers up against anyone’s in the area. His beer selection is outstanding as well with hundreds of different craft beer to choose from. Keep up the good work Rudy

Its like a rustic, modern, sports bar. Great food selection with reasonable prices. Great craft beer selection, average prices. Draft beers start at $6 and go up from there. Some better drink specials could help out. I tend to agree about their soundtrack as well. The all pop soundtrack probably isnt the biggest attractor for the older business lunch crowd in the area, and doesnt seem to jive terribly well with the interior design. Overall pretty underrated. Disappointingly empty most of the times Ive visited, and their small amount of business is the reasonable cause for a lot of the lower scoring reviews. Give them a shot.

Decent place, my wife and I only had a problem, there was all this open space and no fans to circulate the air so it was a bit warm at times specially while eating. However the menu is very nice with random things you wont regularly find. Such as smoked venison options, truffle fries, a huge selection high end liquors. Lots and lots of scotch. Wings were very good and they offer a decent selection of flavors like dry rubs of lime pepper, wet sauces like tropical rum chipotle, lots of craft beer and 24 ounce craft beer options from bottles. Will go back, thanks amber.

Called asked what kind of beer they have she said we have 40 taps i said great do you have anything that doesnt contain centennial or cascade hops because i have an allergy to those specific hops She said i have no idea I asked how do you buy the beer if you dont know what your buying She said i dont know. Never going to walk in and its 2 blocks away..... doesnt seem like they r in the right line of business if you dont even know what you have

So Im giving this place a 4 because they really tried...service sucked something terrible but they were short staffed I think. So Boo to the manager for allowing that. I guess I would like to see that person struggling along with our waitress who was the bartender who was probably on the dishwasher. We know she wasnt the cook because the food was dynamite. Great beer selection so you have my return!

Went in for dinner and drinks on a week day. The cook hadnt shown up or something, so we couldnt order any food. Also, there were only like 8 beers on tap out of the wall of available taps. There was only one other person in the bar, but despite that, the bartender paid more attention to her phone than us. I can only assume it was to get someone in to cook.
