C C Club

A Travesty! A Sham!

by drewww at Citysearch

This is not where one goes to have fun. Staffed primarily by self loathing narcissists, it goes without saying that the service is terrible. The patrons are by and large equally a waste of oxygen. And a killer jukebox? Only if you like digital jukeboxes where morons can play whatever they want ad nauseam and pay extra to play their songs next. However, if it's soul crushing, existential black comedy you seek or if you're a profoundly awful human being and prefer the company of other profoundly awful human beings, this is the place for you!

They throw you out when their friends assault you.

Last night some friends of mine were at trivia at a different bar. This guy showed up that's been stalking one of them so they left and headed over to the C.C Club. He showed up there right after them and continued to harass them. They told him to leave and he disappeared.

I met up with them shortly after that. At that point I had no idea what had been going on and we had a couple of Premiums. It seemed like a normal night and since I just graduated I was more than happy to have some friends to drink with on a Monday.

Then this guy walked over to our table and said, "Maybe you were right," and threw a drink on several people at our table, mostly women. Full disclosure: one of them was my girlfriend.

I got up and shoved him away from our table into a pillar. He moved just like a rag doll and could barely stand up he was that drunk so I let him stumble inside while a couple of other people went to talk to the bouncer about getting him kicked out. I stayed with the table in case he came back.

They came back about five minutes later and he hadn't been kicked out. He was actually sitting at the bar getting consoled by the entire staff. Twenty minutes later he's still there and people are starting to get worried about being able to leave because he's sitting by the only exit.

So, I went to try and get the staff to kick him out. Failing that I was going to call the police. When I walked in the staff was still comforting him and on my way to confront them I was intercepted by a server who shoved me and yelled for the bouncer. Then they surrounded me and while I yelled for him to be removed.

This went on for a couple of minutes but it seemed like forever. They wouldn't remove him. Everyone else was able to get out during the confusion though so I left.

He was still inside 15 minutes later when I got off the phone with the police. They didn't tell me to stay so I left with my friends, again mostly women, so they weren't walking alone.

In the end I'm happy to have been kicked out of the C.C. if that's they way they're going to deal with a stalker that assaults their customers.

I have been going to the cc club for a few years now, and I had to stop. The service is horrible. The bartenders and servers are extremely rude. I have no idea why they are still in business because of the terrible service. I can understand that it can be stressful on a friday or saturday night, but that does not excuse blowing me off many times when I try to order a drink and when I finally do get to order, they are nothing but rude and act like I'm such a pain in their butt.

next time you are thinking about hitting up the cc, try the bulldog across the street, they have a patio too and their service is ten times better

• Pros: patio
• Cons: service

Best corner bar!

I've been going to the CC since I moved to MPLS about 10 years ago, and it's my favorite hangout. Best for parting on Sat, then coming back for a recovery breakfast on Sun. Awesome Jukebox!

• Pros: good food, good drinks, great service
• Cons: can't smoke inside anymore...
