BarFly's Review of Refectory

Fourteen thousand square feet of Greshamite-stocked meat market sorta says it all, yes? You'll either presume a never-ending Jammin 95.5-embraced dance floor of more-than-willing thirty-something delights or a chartable portion of Hell. There's three separate bars, tons of games, decent steakhouse cuisine, predictable music and a garish exterior resembling a Fisher-Price STD factory.

And yet, it has its charms - the tiny, go-go dancing old man, chief among them. Great fun for an unpretentious group. 30 flat screens, 5 jumbo HD projection all UFC fights, NFL packages, all college games (Nebraska, Green Bay Packers are house faves).

$2.25 doms and wells, $3.75 wine, $3-6 food menu 3-7pm M-F. $3-6 food menu 3-7pm and 9:30pm-close Monday-Saturday.

Sundays: Live Blues Jam 6pm-11pm, 6pm-close 1/2 off bar food, happy hour all day on drinks, no cover.

Mondays: Happy Hour drinks all night and free Texas Hold 'Em 6:30pm and 9pm game times, no cover.

Tuesdays: Hip Hop (cover $5).

Wednesdays: Guys Night Out with The Brew: $3.50 signature cocktails (kamis, margs, lemon drop, etc.) 7pm-11pm, no cover.

Thursdays: $2 vodka + Red Bull 7pm-11pm, no cover.

Fridays and Saturdays: deejays, dancing, $5.

Butt Hurt

Well I really wanted to see the talented nakedness at the Playgirl show here tonight, but the boyfriend put the kibbosh on it. What a hypocrite, I pick his drunk ass up at DV8 all the time. Tempted to go anyway. Ah, who am I fooling? Well, you lucky girls who are smart enough to not tell your man there's a Playgirl show tonight, let me know what I missed. I'll be at the Hawthorne Hideaway pouting into my screwdriver.

I had fun with beer bongs...

I will go this week and check it out. Traveling from California and I'm always looking for someplace that doesn't judge me cuz I'm not young anymore. I think it's funny when somebody comments about all the things we used to do and had fun doing in some negative way. If you're telling me that it's a bunch or people my age, hanging on to the fact that indeed they are NOT dead and like to get out and party like yesteryear? Book me, I'll see you there. I would love to go to a meat market where there are other people my age, getting twisted to 80's music and hooking up like we are in high school. Are you kidding? Now if you are not single, and want a fine glass of wine, then you shouldn't be reveiwing places like this. I'll let you know how I fair - I'll be the one wearing mirrored aviator glasses in a clash t-shirt with a skinny leather tie and an oversized black jacket on... (wait, isn't that back in style now?)

miss. OMG you write crappy reviews every where you go.. and you were with a client, so you HAD to be polite... well what kind of CLIENTS are you entertaining if they take you to the "white trash shit hole" I think you should get a clue, smell the flowers, live life a little.. your nothing special!

The refectory is a blast.. every time I go there I have fun.. the drinks are decent priced, the music is good and there is all ages and race that hang out there!

It is what you want it to be.

I think that anyplace can be a "meat market" if that is what you are looking for. You can go out to a club and dance and have fun as long as you're not putting yourself out there as a ho looking for any guy to hook up with. I've gone to the refectory on and off for years and I go with my friends to just be able to hang out with each other, drink and dance.

OMG

Shitty. meat market WHITE TRASH galore! I can't even imagine what a husband wife hook-up from that place would look like. For the love of God, do not BREED! This place still plays songs like "F*** you like an animal" in fact****twice while I was there for 2 drinks (like 45 min-an hour). I was with a client so I tried to be nice, but inside I was just cringing. What a group of Losers. 25-40 year old re-living high school party, beer bong mentality. SAD so very sad. Don't go unless you want to be hit on a million times and by the lowest and cheesiest creepolas around. :( Ewwww

  4. Were you 86ed for being a complete douchebag? Are you the perpetually unsatisfied bitch? The bartender's psycho ex? Are you copy & pasting the same review from/to Yelp, Citysearch, etc? Then you undermine the value of user reviews. Don't waste your time posting.
