Not the best big buck hunter game, but the air conditioning was pumping and on 100+degree days that matters, drink prices are reasonable too

ace bar recently redesigned the inside of their bar, moving skeeball to the back, and adding 3 huge booths where skeeball used to be.

Borderline too classy for my taste, but I can't say no to Buck Hunter & skee ball. Go on a weekday to avoid a crowd.

Don't come here. The bartenders can't keep tabs straight and will bill other people's drinks to you and not settle it properly
