Howard's On Main

I'm giving it five stars because Howard is amazing, the food is really good, and the employees are all kind. Just beware of the regulars. The regulars control everything. They have certain seats they sit in, and you're not welcome to sit in them. They bully people for being different from them. If you dress differently or have a different personality from them, they will be rude and nasty to you. I've been bullied there one too many times. I had the last straw when they randomly tried to embarrass me in front of a friend who was visiting from out of town. Telling me they want to punch me in the face because I talk about my dating life too much. 🤷‍♀️ I no longer feel safe there when I just mind my own business and be me. I've been attacked there and threatened by them, when I don't even know them. There are other bars where the regulars are nice. I'm bummed about the decision I'm making but in the end, it's not worth damaging my mental state further by continuing to be bullied for just being myself. Others have also had the same problem with the same regular customers. It's not just me. The regulars aren't held accountable for their mean actions. They have free reign. It's their bar, and the rest of us just have to live in it. If you want good food and good music though, I highly recommend. 👌

I cannot say enough good things about Howard's and the food. I love the turkey croissant sandwich, and order it almost every time I go in. The staff are so friendly and sincere, it's like being with family, only better. But the best thing about Howard's is Howard himself. He has a genuine concern for people, and goes out of his way to help those who have a need.
