    I came in with my wish to be yet, "too soon" to be wife... For just a drink and possibly something to eat. Unfortunately they don't have anything to eat but I was greeted by Brittany the bartender who was very polite and friendly. She quickly informed that they only accept cash payment but there is an ATM on site. She then made me a great Long Island Iced Tea which I more than enjoyed. She even went as far as to come to the table and ask us how the drink was which I see as very good customer service. The music was also very good the speakers have great bass and aren't too loud to the point you need to yell to be heard. All in all Snapped Magee's is a great place to go and get a drink.

    Great little "dive bar" if you want to call it that.... Great service, cheap drinks, old school dart boards, get your darts early because I think they are limited on the old school metal tip darts... Great little spot to get hammered at, then right down the street a great dinner that's open all night with great food so tough to beat.... Cheers!!!.... Put 10$ into jukebox and picked some great songs, lol, was there another couple hours and they never came on, rest of the songs that played were cool so all good
