My expectations were initially quite high for this bar, lured in by its captivating underground ambiance and the warm welcome from the bartenders. Unfortunately, my enthusiasm was dampened when I encountered discrepancies in the bill my husband and I received. Despite our modest consumption of only two drinks each and a couple of bags of popcorn, the final tally far exceeded what we anticipated. Admittedly, I made the mistake of not scrutinizing the receipt closely before payment—a lesson learned. However, upon later inspection prompted by my husband's concern over the steep total, it became evident that we had been charged for drinks we never ordered. This revelation was disconcerting, especially considering our assumption that our friends were settling their own tabs separately. To compound matters, a conversation with a friend the following day revealed that she had indeed been paying for her drinks individually, raising the troubling possibility of either billing errors or, worse yet, double charges. In hindsight, I regret having tipped at all. Needless to say, this unforeseen expense left a sour taste in my mouth. Moving forward, I've made the decision to pay for each purchase as we go, opting to forgo the convenience of opening a tab entirely. While my husband initially preferred the tab system, after this experience, I've firmly resolved against it. To fellow patrons, I offer a word of caution: diligently review your receipts, even in moments of haste, to sidestep similar frustrations in the future.

I was there in late October, so the vibe may be different in the warmer seasons. Anyway, the dim lighting and live music made for a very intimate environment. Definitely recommend ordering an old fashioned. Drinks are a bit on the smaller side for the $$ but worth it if you're in town enjoying a little getaway. The outdoor seating area looks like it would be wonderful when warm out. I'll definitely stop back in during my summer visit.

Like other negative reviews seen, we had a mediocre experience at best. There is no wait staff, so you’re stuck getting everything yourself. That’s not a negative, per se, if the staff and system they’ve been stuck in were actually geared towards customer self service. Asked for a drink holder to carry three drinks to patio…given a dirty, sticky tray…then you have to manage the unwieldy doors before heading up the stairs to their patio.Live music was below average, guy signing off key to cover music he didn’t seem to know well.Food service is truly a bad joke. Multiple mistakes made, one item had to be made over twice, nobody bothered to say sorry or otherwise acknowledge the mistake. Brought this up to owner and he accepted the criticism but blamed staffing shortages and “hours they need”…whatever that means. It’s a simple formula: hire good people, train them well, pay them well. Based on other reviews it would appear the owners don’t really care what anyone says about the bad experiences they endure…This is a really unique establishment in an even more unique town. It could really pop under the right leadership.

Cool bar with live music... Stopped by while in town for Oktoberfest. The Cellar Bar has one of the chilliest and nicest patios in town, with friendly service. They have a huge selection of both draft and imported bottle beers, and a small grill outside (the food is ok). Prob the best part about the place is they have live music (usually acoustic) every night with some really good artists.

I was disappointed by the burger I had. It was towards closing time, however. Staff was nice, and there were plenty of good beer selections (and no bud light that I could see).

Beautiful patio, good music venue. Food was terrible bar food. Prefab everything. There was no service. You ordered everything yourself which is fine but that is why the service is 3 stars.

A quaint venue under the Hermann Crown Suites. Live music every night. Take the time to enjoy the atmosphere.

This place was recommended by our host as a good spot for drinks. The building is beautiful and they have an interesting cellar bar. The drinks we ordered were just ok but nothing special. The bartender wasn’t particularly knowledgeable nor hospitable so we stuck to basic drinks posted on the menu. We did not try the food from the outdoor kitchen but based on what we saw, that may have been a good decision. Hopefully it was just an off night for the staff but we hope they improve before the summer rush. We were grateful to see that the bar had a table with two drinks poured for the two Hermann officers shot in the line of duty.

What a gem! Loved the atmosphere. I had a buffalo chicken sandwich and pretzel sticks that were delicious. The Summer Sangria was amazing!

$14 for a terrible processed burger and $14 for an overcooked chicken breast sandwich. Not impressed! That was a $3 fair burger at best!! And the chicken sandwich looked and tasted as if it was left over and reheated. Just terrible!!
