Purple Place Bar, El Dorado Hls

I have lived in El Dorado Hills and the Folsom area for years. The Purple Place has always been an icon as a casual neighborhood bar. I hadn't been there for a while, but went for a mixed drink tonight and to catch an NBA playoff game.

I was shocked at the price of a small mixed drink. Six dollars for a screwdriver with well vodka. At almost any other bar in Folsom or EDH you wouldn't spend more than $4- for such a drink.

It was disappointing as it never feels good to be taken advantage of. I work for a large company in EDH and we often do happy hours. Until the Purple Place adjusts their prices to be more in line for what you would expect for a casual neighborhood bar, I won't be going there again, and won't recommend it to any of my co-workers or friends.
