Style, hope it lasts!

VERY well decorated place, and the front and back patio areas are killer! Wasn't busy when I went on a Friday, but I met a terrific guy, so it was nice having the upstairs VIP room with curtains you could close to ourselves......Anyway, the key to FINDING BS West -- turn left onto Craftsman Court off 5th Ave, and then right at the first alley -- THEN it's easy to find. Drinks are good, and again, it's a beautifully appointed place: hope you get lucky like I did. I'm trying this again, and maybe it will be REALLY busy the next time I go (I was there on a Friday from 9pm-1:30am).

Good place to have fun

I realy liked this bar it was a lot of fun. The only thing I did not like was the DJ half of his music was awsome and the rest was crap. In all this is a realy good place!

On a Wednesday

I had a blast, great music, great people, great drink specials- 2 for 1. My only complaint is that when I mapquested the address it took me to an entirely different strip, then when I tried 411 they had no listing for "BS West" luckily my friends helped me find it. Anyway, I noticed the yahoo map in the upper right corner of this page... if you really want to find the place, follow this map cause it looks about right.

Not busy on a Saturday, despite 2 for 1 drinks!

This is a nice place, and people seemed somewhat friendly. But on a Saturday night at 1130pm, there weren't that many people there. Call drinks were only $6 and they give you a chip for a free drink later on. Where are the people? It's hard to find as you have to walk through a tiny shopping center towards the back, where there's a side door to the bar. Lots of parking. Wish it were busier.
