    Oh we used to like pippins. However, they have a very rude staff on nights early in the week. It was worth going even though the bar smells like dirty dirty outhouse until the service also declined.

    This is such a good dive bar. Great place to drink cheap in pricey Gold Coast.

    Do not, under any circumstances, allow a waitress to take your card. You may never see her again and you will be trapped in oh-crap-she-has-my-card-I-can't-leave hell.

    Crappy service and bad attitudes from the bartenders on a Monday night. Especially from this douche Gabe. Avoid this place. There are way better places!
