by E J. on I would go here every day if it wasn't for the fact that they play their music SO darn loud. Seriously, turn the volume down. I go here for espresso, not to feel like I am in a nightclub. Perhaps they could get away with this if they were playing soft jazz instead of wide tone range electronica. Aside from this, the ambiance here is one of the nicest in town. Espresso here is good, but the crema is sometimes lacking, and sometimes the shot is underextracted without the grind being adjusted accordingly to reach the appropriate target volume. They have a great machine though, so with a little more expert training, they could potentially be serving the best espresso in town. If a manager or barista is reading this, contact me for more detailed suggestions.
by Mckinley Mercado on Ok, so some might say I'm stuck in a rut, but I can't get enough of Tuesday late night at the Star Bar. Quasi, the first DJ of the night, drove up to Lake Allatoona to DJ my brother's rehearsal dinner because my mother said please. The next DJ up Romeo Cologne has been a staple in my life since Funkadelica at The Georgia Theatre in Athens back in 1994. You can't beat the mix of people on Tuesday night. Of course my mother says that I'll never find Mr. Right at 2:30am on a Tuesday, but I plan to prove her wrong. And there's plenty of Mr. Tonight's to keep ya busy. If you like old school funk, I would suggest very little clothing, closed-toe shoes and a nap, because things don't get started till midnight.
