Buckshot Bar & Gameroom

Best of, my @$$!. Wow! I can't believe how terrible the Friday night scene at Alpha Bar really is. My room mate said he heard of this really cool bar in the Richmond so we looked it up here on City Search and it had rave reviews. So we show up kinda early around 9:45 thinking things will pick up and the place would be "jumping". Sadly, no jumping occurred and we left around 11:30 because there were about 20 people in the entire bar. The service was excellent and the couches are comfy, but having a lack of clientele really reduces the appeal of this bar. Another thing that really intrigued me about this establishment was the overwhelming population of Asian folk. Now I'm not saying that's necessarily a bad thing, but at the same time a bunch of spikey haired douches and their quasi girlfriends do not make for a good time. Another indiscretion I have is the the bouncer couldn't stop talking to seemingly underage girls long enough to see me walk outside with my friend. When I tried to returned he bumblingly asked to see my ID and I had only been outside for 2 minutes. I didn't know you could fail as a doorman, but the Alpha Bar has proven otherwisse. In conclusion, the Alpha Bar is lame, the dj is sub-par and made my ears hurt, the bathroom is tagged all ghetto-tastically and I wouldn't come back if they paid me. Word to ya mutha'...…

Good music Stiff Drinks Cute Guys. I just moved into the Richmond.... Love all the bars out here. But I have to say that Alpha is the only one that really stands out. All the other bars are really "Divey" and dark... Alpha is just the opposite. The feel of the place brings on a very cool vibe instantly.... The music was hot last Sat. when me and my girls went out and I played poker with some of the regulars there on Wen night. Love the people. Love the Place.…

okay place, rude people. Based on the reviews we tried Alpha for the first time last night, and for friday it was empty, and stayed empty. The drinks were a bit on the weak side and the patrons were nice but the bartenders had some attitude. Overall an ok place if you bring your own group, but if you're looking to meet anyone or have a conversation with anyone that works there, Be prepared to be disappointed. Needless to say, Iwith all the great places you could go, do NOT come here.…

it was better when it first opened. not the same without nicole. i don't know what the circumstances are in her disappearance, but she's a diamond in the rough that you should do whatever it takes to hold onto because you're not going to find many like her. get her back.…
