The bartenders at Fahrenheit are by far the WORST and SNOBBIEST in downtown San Jose.
My girlfriends and I were ready to spend a night out dining and drinking and dancing. Instead of visiting our usual favorite haunts, we thought we'd up the ante and check out Fahrenheit.
I'd listened to some mixed reviews from other people, but I thought I'd try it out for myself!!
Let me be the first to encourage anyone planning on going to Fahrenheit: SAVE YOUR MONEY and enjoy an evening out elsewhere!!
First of all, it took us 20 minutes in a ridiculously short line to get in. The hostess was incredibly rude and walked away from us to deal with something else TWICE! Once we were inside, we headed straight to the bar where we waited another 30 minutes to ORDER our drinks. The bartender was unfriendly [that should have been obvious when he walked by us a few times before even stopping to get our order] and looked at me like I was an absolute moron when I asked for a bottled water. I politely explained that I was the designated driver and he just rolled his eyes and walked away.
Forget trying to find somewhere to sit. And dancing? Forget about it.....there's not enough room to do either. The only redeeming quality is that it's close enough to other, more respectable establishments that are actually fun and happy to have your business.
For a fairly new lounge, the employees seem to be under the impression that they're established enough to snub people at their own discretion.
If I never return to Fahrenheit again, it will still be too soon.
Pros: Proximity to OTHER San Jose nightlife venues.
Cons: Snobby and expensive.
