A friendly little place, with welcoming staff and a group of regulars that love new people. The karaoke selection is huge and the sound is great. The karaoke host is friendly and funny, and has a great banter going throughout the night with the patrons and other staff to keep the in-between moments worth your attention. We had such a great time.

It's kind of everything you want it to be. Dark, basement bar, the staircase smells like piss to get down there, but in all fairness that adds to it all. Bartender was friendly, few locals there during the day. If you want a dive bar with cheap drinks, then the Stanley it is!

Nice karaoke place. The microphone closest to the KJ was not working properly.

Welcoming staff, great people hosting the karaoke, large parking lot so parking will never be a problem. The pub is quite large inside, bathrooms were clean.
