Slow Ride Roadhouse

This is one of the most expensive bars I've been to in Lawrence. Very high prices for food that is average at best. The beer is very expensive, and too many uppity motorcycle enthusiasts, who disquise themselves as "bikers." I'll never go back to this bar again. I'll stick with Johny's Tavern.

The REAL world

Real dollars is a wonderful idea, and I think that if it is possible, the Lawrence City Council should adopt some sort of law that forces all businesses in Douglas County to accept Real Dollars. Even better, they would make a law that businesses in Douglas County only accept them! lol

Louise's Downtown

Yes, I will have to align myself with your comments katej, Louise's downtown is a decent bar that suffers from a rude, uncourteous bartender. One night, I was at another bar up the street, and I needed to use the pay phone, but they didn't have one. I remembered that Louise's had one. I had left my cell phone at home, and all I had with me was a little bit of change and a debit card. I walked into Louise's and over to the phone when I realized I only had 45 cents in change, and I needed fifty cents. I asked a man sitting at the bar if he had a spare dime, and the bartender, a tall man with a sour looking face, asked me to leave the bar because I was "asking people for money" and then he threatened me with the police. All this over a measly little ten cent piece of steel, what is Lawrence coming too? I will never go to Louise's Downtown again, and I will encourage others not to as well. Louise's doesn't have that "laid back" social type atmosphere like it used too, and now the bartender is a complete asshole. The best thing Louise's downtown could do is to fire the current bartender and bring him down off of his "high horse" and find one that appreciates the customers and holds a little common courtesy. It is the miracle of the internet, when people have lousy service, they can be held to account.
