text: I can not wait to go back This was my first time thereI had heard the Griffin was a punk bar and had heard mixed reviews As a result I did not make a point of going there A friend of my husbands best friend was in town who wanted to go somewhere punky This place immediately came to mind It was not at all what I expected I was so pleasantly surprised On top of it everyone really enjoyed themselvesn nThe lighting is greatthe fire pits are really cool too Unlike the Peppermills fire pits it did not feel hot in the Griffin Overall decor is really nice Low ceilings and dim lighting creates a really cozy setting They were playing really good alternative music Then we decided to walk to the back to check things out There was funky technoish dance room What a random unexpected hidden treasure It was so cool because a bunch of random people were dancing together It made for a unique but really fun place Very good DJ toonnThe service was goodpeople drinking at the bar were all really friendlydrinks were reasonable I will be going back I love what they are doing with the East Side of Fremont Street All of those businesses have really helped clean up that area and make it a great destination in Vegas
