Great local pub with the friendliest and prettiest staff patrons who don't forget you and the best hotwings in town (try the house sauce!!) Recommend Tuesday hot wing special nights. Never a dull moment here.

DJ's has a huge selection of drinks to choose from and their prices aren't too bad. The service was great, Kaylee was super attentive and very nice. I was excited to try the wings that they serve at DJ's since Ridgecrest isn't a huge town and doesn't have a whole lot to offer in the way of restaurants much less a wing specific restaurant. I had the caribbean jerk wings and they were by far the best I've had on town. Kaylee let me know that they have a wing special that they run on occasion I will definitely be checking that out! Other than the great service and yummy wings, the interior of the bar was a little on the small side but overall I really like the vibe. There are two pool tables to challenge your friends... or enemies? One warning I would give you before heading to DJ's is that they are a CASH ONLY operation at this time. They do have an ATM in the bar but wanted to give you a heads up on that!

Prolly one of my best trips to the play. I met i women for the third time though she didnt know i was counting. There beer was extra cold, thank god cause its been so hot. It feels like one hundred and twent five smoking asss degrees but the nice bartender got me to drink a girl drink by trinking me and i must say she, made it well. All in all, south america is a better place because of that bar. And the 80 year old pole dancer. Lol just kidding

John Ivanisin

Great little dive bar, full of regulars, great staff and good prices. The owner is a Veteran and takes care of his own! Great place to stop for a drink if you're in the area!

Had some delicious wings here for lunch. Reasonably priced. Keep in mind that it is cash only. There are two ATMs inside with a fee of $ 3 per transaction.

This place has a Great atmosphere and Down to earth people, not only visiting the bar but also the people who work behind the bar as well. They also have the Best chicken strips in town.

Best place for pool in ridgecrest imo. Not pretentious in the least. Cool outdoor smoking patio. Not a lot to choose from in ridgecrest but dj's is the place to be like cheers and you are norm maybe.

J
James A

A great place to enjoy a drink, listen to music and chill with good people. One of the very few places you don't have to worry about drama. Unlike a place that starts with a T.

Jackson Richardson

DJs put is a local bar which also serves food. Pool,dart board and shuffle boards are available.Local Producers and MCs preform on special occasions. We spend typically 2 hours here.

Fun place to drink and play pool 🎱 food is actually pretty decent, too, considering it's a bar.

J

The only bar in town with a real honest-to-god dart board. They used to have two, but only one now. They really need to hang the second one back up.

This has to be one of the best bars on town. If you like shuffle board, they have a pretty nice one inside.

Great atmosphere. The crowd wasn't huge. Though it was Sunday night. I would go back again. Also, the bartender was amazing she knew exactly the kind of drink we wanted when we explained it to her.

its like a desert cheers bar, its been a standard in bars and has stood the test of time, lovely outdoor place to take your drinks and the new owners love to do upgrades like that, great entertainment on weekends, and the regular locals have the time for a deep historical or a thoughtful conversation. Love happy hour there!! The bar tenders are lovely and know what to pour when you call the "shots" been my favorite bar for 18 years now!!

This place is great, I'm a temporary transplant and to be accepted and welcomed by locals is great. Booze is definitely priced correctly, and they have a great jukebox. I highly recommend if you are in town. Owners are amazing people.

I liked the bar as the bartenders were attractive, professional and freinfly without being too hot to converse with average Joe me. The Texas popularkar Buffalo Wiskey sure didn't hurt much either.

D
Daniel Kellogg

Used to be best bar in town for cheep drinks and good fun... Now it's a bit pretentious and too crowded. Drinks are slightly more expensive but still best prices around.

Neighborhood bar, and it worked. Tuesday so nothing special was expected. Decent prices and the fish and chips was pretty damned good. Seemed to be good people there, customers and staff. I liked it. It probably is pretty fun on a weekend night.

J
Joe Martin

Comfortable and small, small town, no frills pub. Great service, patio for smoking. Don't remember music but i think a person should. I went Monday mid day. Zero chicks there except the one with me and barback.

Nice enough, very small. Gets very crowded after 8pm or on special events, literally standing room only at some points. Nice pool tabled but no room to play when it's hopping.

P

Loud music (DJ) on a Friday prevent you from interacting with other people. It does look like a nice American bar with very helpful staff, but the music killed it for me

K
Kerrigan Johnson

Good drinks, 2 pool tables, outside seating fenced in for smoke breaks. Not a giant food selection, seems more of a young party bar, they have DJ's on the weekends.

Tiny small hole in the wall dive bar. Not much room to move or sit when there is more than 40 people there, but has good pool tournaments

Chase was a great server and made sure I was pleased. The place can be hit or miss with the crowd. Decent spot for some billiards.

It was a good night for the most part. However, the bartender decided to toss the beer i just purchased upon last call. I stepped outside for a quick smoke and at 1:45 i was unable to re-enter the establishment. I'm very curious as to what the owner has to say about this particular incident and surely wpuld hope that they reconcile the mishandling of the situation. I'll be standing by meanwhile...smh...

Awesome playlist. Bartender was cool. All occupiers were civilians,. laughed about my asking for "the Head", after i walked away. So, clueless as to how an Infantry Marine speaks, or refers to a restroom. Feel there may be weekend safety briefings, advising personnel stationed aboard the China Lake military installation to stay away from this place. But then, most the local riff raff look pretty tough, compared to your average lil' Navy Squid. Decent enough bar, that I'll be walking back over for a 2cnd visit this evening.

Nice spot to shoot a game of pool and have a drink. Has a patio for some fresh air. It's my go to place when feeling like going out.

Bartenders have a serious attitude problem and ignore female customers. Happy to take my business to the Patriot where ALL customers are treated EQUALLY and RESPECTFULLY.

Way way way too loud.. like gd club, but it's a jukebox. You can't even talk to people. Just screaming loud music. Beer prices are about $1.50 - $2.00 too high. I hear the drink prices are about right. The men's bathroom is an exhibitionists dream. Just dick wagging as soon as the door is open - like c'mon, put up a shield or something. Pretty lame. The bar is too small for the pool tables. It is an incessant POOL STICK IN YOUR face / back / arms kinda place. Just way too crowded with tables. But the patrons are obsessed with pool. Heinous. The local booze hound barflies have their ass's DNA embedded in the stools. Literally everyday people. It's weird, like it's their home, their family. Or maybe they just go the few times of year I go. I hear the food is good! I have never had it, but there is no way this many people could be wrong. They seriously love it. And they have a fried pickle, which I've never tried. But apparently it is amazing. I'll never go back, but I'd sure like to try that thing. I give it 2 stars because it is popular and people like, so it does have redeeming qualities. But the raging loud music and overpriced drinks and pool cues in your face - keep it and enjoy.

Local dive which is usually my go to but this one didn't seem to care for the customers. Wouldn't open a TAB, didn't know how to get the football game on the TV, Michelada was pretty bad, hottest hotwings were sweet. There's not many options around here but this is the worse I found here so far.

We was playing pool and noticed the snack menu had fried pickles .. ordered some but couldn't really eats but a few of them because they was way over cooked.. they was so hard.. they hurt my teeth.. she should of never served them to me.. but she did. Some girls that work at bars need to pay more attention to what they should b doing and not flirting with every drunk men in the house.. because if u can't cook then ain't no man gonna want u anyway. And I was looking forward to those pickles.. those was just nasty..

Absolutely terrible service took 5 mins to get first beer another 5 min to order food bartender walked away before I could finish my food order. The wings I ordered were the worst wings I’ve ever had. I’m still trying to figure out how they cooked them in less the 15 mins. They came out cold the texture was weird. After I finished my first beer the bar tender took my empty and didn’t bring me a new one or ever bother to ask if I wanted another. After I took one bit of a wing and sent them back. They still tried changing me for the wings. Absolutely terrible bar worst experience I’ve ever had in my life. If I could give negative stars I would.

Your bartender...SAM...Thought it was okay to make fun of an old man...this old man graduated from Burroughs and was drafted...spent 2 years in the jungle...watched many men die.....have 2 holes from enemy gunfire...in my body...and your bartender made fun of me...because of my age....after the war I became an Orthopedic surgeon....laughing now SAM...Ridgecrest is where grew up..I own a home and 15 acres here....more property in Oregon....Washington...and Montana....I will make sure to close your business unless you get honorable staff

I came to this bar to have a beer with my girlfriend and a friend. There was a bartender, a young woman with a tattoo, I haven't felt such a bad attitude towards me for a long time. When she heard my Russian accent, she looked at me very rudely and was very impolite. I am not guilty of anything, I was decently dressed, I do not like discrimination based on nationality. I regret leaving her a tip...
