BOOT SCOOTIN’ REVIEW
Bourbon Jacks Bar & Grill
Oct 10, 2019
We arrived at Bourbon Jack’s About 6pm after a long drive from the coast. We were hungry and excited to dance at a new venue. We ordered a meal and everyone we spoke to was very nice. We had the Strawberry Goat Cheese Salad and Vegetable Southwest Soup, which were both very good!
After eating, we were excited to dance, but the band didn’t come on until 8:30, so we took a look around.
Here’s what we saw:
Cover charge: There was no cover charge the Thursday night we were there
Dress Code: No dress code that we saw.
Dance Floor: Dance floor is medium/small smooth cement, not the best to dance on, but it works.
Dance Music: All Country western with mostly two-step and a couple line dances thrown in during the bands first set. The band was very good!
We particularly liked the bands rendition of Copperhead Road.
Decor: Some country western wall hangings with one whole wall of brick and one wall of wood. The place has a new feel to it and lots of seating. There were eight TV’s featuring all sports. A very pleasant atmosphere.
Dance Lessons: Two step lessons on Tuesday night.
Food: Full menu and full bar. We drank ice tea all night, which included refills.
Restrooms: Small, but very clean.
Security: We saw no extra security beyond the bartender and waitresses. The area around the building felt very safe.
Parking: The whole area is retail and there was lots of parking close by.
We enjoyed our evening of dancing at Bourbon Jacks. The only shortcoming for the night was the very small crowd. There were only about 3 or 4 other people dancing during the first set by the band. When we left after the 1st set, there was still a fairly small crowd.
We did meet a couple on the dance floor and they encouraged us to follow them dancing the Copperhead Road line dance and that was really fun. Most of the set we danced the two-step.
Restrooms were clean but tiny. Music tempo for dancing was fine, even though it was a bit on the slow side. We are used to dancing a moderate to fast tempo for the two-step. Just our preference. All in all, we had a good time and will be back again at Bourbon Jack’s in 2020 to dance and review on a Friday or Saturday night.
