THE IDEAL BAR

We’ve done the best we could to hold on
to this amazing jukebox over the years, but it’s unfortunately finally time for it to retire. We want to send this amazing piece of Ideal Bar history off with a party. Come down this Thursday and play your favorite tunes on one of the last of its kind. We will be plugging a bunch of free credits and hopefully will have a full list of the tracks typed out that lately you can’t browse due to page turners being out of order. Friday, the new digital jukebox gets installed. We are working on keeping the ol’ jukebox memory around as best we can. We’ve loved that machine, as you have, lets send it off right.

Ideal beanies are back in stock! They go fast, c’mon down and get yours!🍻

Now it's easier to send THE IDEAL BAR a message.

Hi Ideal friends, it’s been awhile and we hope you are well! If you have the means we kindly ask that you think of our lovely barkeeps this holiday season. The link below allows you to directly leave a tip for a staff member, as well as those of many other fine establishments (Ricky is listed under Crystal Corner Bar).

We’ll see you in the early Spring on the patio 🙂
Until then, Be excellent to each other!

Hmm...

Ideal beanies are in, get em’ while they’re hot!
