I like Hulas for the acts they bring and the owners seem nice, its a fun time when I go there. When they first opened I wanted to tend there but didn't know how to get in touch as they have no listed number. I did message them on myspace, didn't get a response, whateves.
I will say this:
When the Green Door is busy with one of the many kick ass bartenders, and you have to jockey for position for a drink, the time it takes to get that drink at the Door equals the same amount of time it takes to a drink at Hulas on a mediocre night with 3 bartenders. The bar at the Door is longer and its 1 vs 3 tenders, plus the door uses glass, Hula's plastic throw away and it still takes longer.... why is that?
I think Hula's needs to look into cutting down slack staff and hire quality. The tenders are too busy adjusting themselves, the tops they wear they are spilling out of. A nip slip is not my gripe here, I don't care if you're topless just serve us and serve us fast. How hard is it to pour a bloody beer????
With this said, Hula's and the Door are my 2 main haunts, sometimes ABC.
Matt, should we all PM you to get in free? I don't feel this is fair to the band, staff or management..... I could get in free if I wanted but I feel people need to get paid, you're all providing a service.
