Red Mouse: Reviews & Ratings

What I love about "The Mouse" is that the place never tries to be something it's not. This is a country corner bar through and through. The bar food is always yummy and they have plenty of drink options. Could the taps be cleaner? Sure. The service is friendly. It's a big place and sometimes you might have to be patient and wait a minute for help (but really only when there's a rush). I like that the owner is usually on-site and although I might not be a regular I've never felt unwelcome.

The Red Mouse bar in Pine Bluff impressed with their delicious weekly burger special – a flavorful ham and cheese-topped burger, fantastic value! Despite a minor ordering hiccup, swiftly resolved, the burger and fries shone. The steak quesadilla was loaded with flavor-packed steak and cheese, and the drinks were top-notch. Friendly service capped off a great experience.

This place is definitely a dive bar, so don’t expect anything fancy, but it’s perfect for a casual night out. They have a fully stocked bar, and good bar food. I like to order their Buffalo chicken wrap. It’s a lot of fun! They have a volleyball league that plays here, meat raffles, and darts.

We drove an hour to see--and dance--to the Dan Lepien band. Great atmosphere! Hats off to the bar/wait staff for outstanding service! The food was great. Loved talking with owner about Army and Army sports. Thank you for your son's service. The only negative for us and others that follow Dan was that you didn't have the band in your dance hall. We and others specifically called ahead to check on a dance floor. That would've made a great night even better for us.

Great place to gather for a beverage and meal. Good salad bar with their tasty fish fry on Fridays. Live music often but it does not need to be so loud.
