Horrible Beer Selection and no cards? Good Music!
by pearceweb
Last time I was at the DD they only had an ATM and didn't take cards which in this day in age is annoying. The beer selection was horrible, the best thing on the menu was a big NewCastle which I liked but the menu is still lacking. The music is great though and that is why people come. The help could be a little more attractive but such is life!

- Pros: Great music scene and it's a fun time
- Cons: horrible beer selection unless you are a lover of cheap domestics.

Yuppie's go home!!
by tallulahnc
I have been going to the Double Door since it opened.Yes, it's crowded, service is slow, and the don't offer "snacks". So what? It's all about the music!! The cover charge is not pricey considering the calibre of music that you hear. I hate cigarettes and it is smokey, but I will gladly pay the cover and brave the smoke for some of the great talent that I have seen there. It ain't you average pick up bar with chicks grinding each other on the dance floor and putting their tongues down each other's throats. Go "uptown" for that crap!
- Pros: Music, Music, regulars
- Cons: Smokey, slow service
