So Brother's is getting a bad rap and I have no freaking idea why. The person below me obviously doesn't understand that card transactions don't show up on the weekend... good luck fighting though!
Here's the deal - if you don't like crowded ""divey"" college bars, don't go. I don't know why anybody expects more from this place when they've NEVER claimed to be. They've since expanded the bar into three levels. The food can take forever if you're flooding out of Twins game, but last time that happened, the server comped us our drinks and food. And yes, they WILL NOT let you in if you have flat brim caps, saggy-a$$ jeans, oversized shirts, haven't showered, are looking to start a fight, etc - just like EVERY OTHER BAR downtown. The dress code is more lax though, to accommodate for the females in the world that don't spend eight freaking hours sucking in their fat and hiding their face with cake, and darling, I'm sorry you got suckered by a guy getting funny - but just take the hit and pay up next time, of course they'll kick you out for trying to steal, you don't think the servers have heard e v e r y trick in the book? The bartenders, bless their hearts, try (and do a pretty good job) of being attentive to everyone and getting drinks, you have to realize this place is insane on the weekends. Me and my buddies have ALWAYS had a good time down here and recommend to anyone that doesn't feel the need to suit up and shove a stick up their a$$.
