The Haunt

I've never before been to a bar where the bouncer physically punches girls in the face, and throws girls into ditches. DON'T come here. The staff members are extremely rude, and money grubbing. My gin and tonic was ice and tonic. They insisted on closing out our party after one hour because they claim someone outside was fighting (when really it was the bouncer punching girls). If you are looking for a classy and reasonable venue to have a party in Ithaca, try Lakewatch, Celebrations, the Clarion, or even the Museum of the Earth before going to the Haunt and getting scammed. Enough said. more

Being a local and loving the Haunt on Saturday nights- I ventured to the Haunt one Friday Night---- BIG MISTAKE!!! There's a couple hours of my life I CAN NEVER GET BACK!!! It was not very busy, at all---- but I still stood for about 15 minutes waiting for a drink while one female bartender just gave drinks away to people without them paying- When I finally got the attention of a different bartender- I was thankful and when asked what was wrong--- I said that I wasn't sure if anyone had seen me and that I was patiently waiting for a beer..... I was told with quite a rude attitude, "well those customers are regular and they actually tip big....s o-----"- "o.k......" Considering I hadn't even purchased a beer yet, and their "Big Tippers" weren't even paying for their drinks--she would make 4 top shelf drinks and charge for 1 draft?----- I wonder if the bartender that was doing the defending of the other one knew what was going on? before he went on the defensive? Here I was thinking that actual paying customers would be more important------? I was appalled with the attitude of the bartenders and will not be going back- Pros: Not a big crowd, ok music Cons: Still couldn't get a drink, Rude Bartenders, more
