Guitars & Cadillacs

The owners and managers are actively violating labor laws. Tonight its 55°F outside and even colder behind the bar where the refrigerators areMy favorite bartenders are always so nice but they dont deserve to come to work in freezing temperatures to maintain an aesthetic.Their workers attire aims to be consistent with black tops and jean bottoms. Totally understandable.But the ladies and the manager stated that the owner prefers the ladies shirts be tank tops and short sleeves, regardless of weather.The manager admitted that the insolation behind the bar area where they work is not keeping heat. After many customers noticed and asked management to do something, the ladies still were not accommodated with the simple courtesy of wearing the sweater they brought to work. One young gentleman took time to write a letter of encouragement to the sweet bartender who was visibly upset and shivering 🥶.The short term solution these ladies were hoping for was that the place would reach max capacity so that hot air would generate.Im not pleased with the treatment of these employees and will be following up with management.

Had a blast here, great atmosphere and good dancing music! Shoutout to Lei working the corner bar, good service as well as fun vibes! Thursday night is also a great night to come with friends!

Music is so loud you cant even order a drink without screaming at bartenders so they can hear you. Suggest turning it down just a little bit. Food is pretty much non existant for a bar this size. When there are minimum 6-7 bartenders it shouldnt take 15 minutes to get through the line to order a beer and cant order something as simple as an old fashioned since they dont have bitters of any kind (very important for any bar to have).

Went to dance, had an awesome dance floor, good mix of line dances to swing/2step music. Would definitely come back here!

Very rude staff. Treat customers like inmates. Men need to be dressed fancy but the girls can walk around half naked. Greeters are very aggressive and unfriendly from the jump. Would not recommend unless you like being abused and talked down to.

Went here Thursday and Friday and had the time of my life! Super fun with great drinks and service too! I highly recommend this business. My favorite bartender is Addy yall should definitely check her out! The quality is consistently outstanding, exceeding my expectations every time. Love going there to dance to line dances and meet new people! Yall check it out. Open every Thursday, Friday, and Saturday! Biggest dance floor in town!

The place is amazing when you want to let loose and enjoy yourself. The drinks are delicious 🤤. The workers there are super nice, the dancing is beyond fun! Y’all go check them out.

This place is a great spot for drinks and dancing. They serve really good drinks and have pool tables and a patio area. The only downside is that they play the same playlist all the time. But overall, its a nice place to hang out and have fun.

Easily the best place to go to in Abilene. Great staff around. Biggest dance floor in Abilene. Huge patio outside. Best drink specials. Smiling faces.

Me & my bestfriend went Saturday it was my first time he wanted to show me around and maybe like an hour of us being there he was pulled by a security guard or something I’m guessing and was told we had to leave because he had on a crop top shirt but the left side was covered and on the right side a littleOf his stomach was out .. we had just purchased a $15 drink and didn’t even get to drink it at all .. we was told it’s against the dress code violation for men to show skin but when I asked where was the written dress code violation I was told their isn’t a written one exactly that tell you whats exactly against the dress code 🙄 so how we suppose to know what’s approved or not but we was told if we came back that same night then they will make our drinks back over but of course we didn’t come back. Also they charge you what they want on the drinks their is no drink price we got 4 shots the first time and it was $6 and then we came back and got 2 shots and we was charged $8 let along everyone just stare at you I will not be coming back

Had a great time here with a large crowd. Staff was quick and friendly. Bartenders were kind and made excellent drinks!

They got winnersThey got losersChain-smokers and boozersThey got yuppiesThey got bikersThey got thirsty hitchhikersAnd the girls next door dress up like movie starsHmmm, hmmm, hmmm, hmmm, hmmm, I love this barThey got cowboysThey got truckersBroken-hearted fools and suckersAnd they got hustlersThey got fightersEarly-birds and all-nightersAnd the veterans talk about their battle scars

Every time I come in here the bartenders have less clothes on.. I believe theyre down to their underwear now. Have some respect. Its always too loud. Takes forever to get your tiny drink. Staff walking around with large buck knives on their waist some punk could yank right off em. Wouldnt be a concern in a nicer place, but here with a bunch of drunk young kids running around... it is.The place could really use some class. Has the potential to make a very nice country bar. The large dance floor is the draw for most.Ive never been refused entry, but I can attest to the folks I have seen them kick out... They were causing trouble or trying to pass off fake id s. One chick got rowdy because they wouldnt give the fake back to her... I was glad to see them being vigilant. So I give the place 3 stars.

Best place in Abilene for western dancing that I know off. Seems kind of tired though and could use a remodel..

We go a couple times a month, and always have a great time. Some of the bartenders can be rude AF. But overall its a fun place.

It has been a year since I was there. Was passing thru between Arizona and Dallas area. I will be back there next week for my annual trip. My room is booked for two nights. Found the bartenders to be gorgeous and friendly. The crowd was great and plenty of room to dance ,no hassles. Never saw any problems. This out of Towner had a great time. I am older and had no problem getting a dance partner. I still remember a certain brunette I met and hope I see her again. Great dancer.

Not a bad place but the dress code is a bit extreme to be honest. Pretty much the same music. Must know how to dance, look good in tight pants and boots to somewhat fit in. Other bartenders will stop someone from drinking way too much but that isnt the case here. They will notice your hat being backwards or a non-texas team jersey before they catch the underage drinkers right in front of their faces. But hey Im not the owner i dont make the rules. Give it a shot and who knows, you may like it 😉

Fun place but they took a bigger tip than I put on the receipt after reviewing my bank statement. Not like I didnt tip 25% in the first place. Not okay to steal from people.

My boyfriend and I go and have a decent time, however every time we go it’s the exact same songs over and over in the same order. We would love to see some variety and maybe a slow song or two instead of all fast paced. The DJ just sits there on his phone and doesn’t care about entertaining the audience.

It is a nice place and all! Do not understand that you have a place for outside smoking for customers. Very nice, but on the other hand vaping is like smoking! People don’t like the smell or the smell gets yo people. It is known to harm people yet vaping is aloud. Respect people that don’t like the nasty vaping smell! Vapors should go outside. I would love to enjoy my time as well.

Well, a Wednesday night, ladies night. Dead ASF! Bartenders were really trying hard, extra hard to be hot they just couldnt pull it off with what they were working with. One cute bartender but never spoke to me. On the plus side no cover charge cuz the boy at the door didnt know how to work the machines his words. This club is dying. People have found other places to go out and have a good time. This club is out in the middle of nowhere. Its not worth the trouble. Cool name though!

Absolutely awful management and rude staff, besides the bartenders which were nice. Also no AC so enjoy sweating to a lame unchanging playlist. Go anywhere else or just drink at home.

10 out of 10 the worst owner/management/staff employee. I left my phone there saturday night, and they wouldnt give it back until the following thursday when they open. Scott (the owner of both guitars and the ugly lime) basically laughed in my face and said someone will be there thursday. i wouldnt spend a penny at either place.

This is literally the first bar Ive ever been that doesnt give free soft drinks to the designated driver... I dont drink, so Im always the DD for my friends. Every other bar Ive ever been gives free soft drinks to the DD to encourage sober drivers and incentivise sober driving... I wont be coming back.

Great music and great folks. I would recommend my friends and family to come out and enjoy Guitars.

They over charged my card AGAIN and made my bank account negative. I know she did it intentionally thinking I wouldnt notice. Sad to think how many other people are getting ripped off without noticing. I will not be going back. That place is shady AF. Good luck trying to get a hold of a manager too smh.

This place sucks, they have a dress code but the friends of the employees dont have to follow it. The music is too loud and the entire staff is rude and uppity. Burn the place down and put in a real bar. Bars are filthy but city of Abilene does nothing.

Its my favorite bar to go too, definitely would recommend it.. Great music & a huge dance floor, thats the best part, well besides the drinks haha... 🤷☺😬😁

First social public gathering in a year.it was good to get out and see some old friends

I haven’t been but a I know several underage college students that go and get hammered almost every weekend, they don’t use fake IDS they never get carded. Makes me question a lot about this place. Big thumbs down

Fun place to visit, (unless your from someplace other than Texas). Dancing and drinks, “daisy dukes” and cowboy boots, and the occasional push and shove...which is to be expected with all those cuties dancing around! Good time

Upscale crowd. Great music.Friendly staff. Bartenders do an excellent job. Great vibes from this place. Would definitely recommend to others! Thanks guys!

Just wanted to remind the staff & patrons that parking inside the Family Protective Services parking lot after the posted hours as per the warning signs can and will have your vehicle towed immediately at the vehicle owners expense with no warning or compensation, thank you and be safe and please dont drink and drive.

I had a lot of fun here. They dont play too much country music on the weekends so its not as country bumpkin as you probably think. Definitely recommend!

I’m not even the type of person to review a place. I literally just left Guaitars and Cadillacs. And I can’t say I’ve never felt as disheartened as I do now. I went there to finish off the night with a friend that was in town and was banned from going in because of a drunk man that came at me disrespectful and immature. I didn’t even have a chance to react as soon as I walked in I was treated like I wasn’t welcome by the person leaving and I thought a guard caught the whole thing, he was standing right by me and even told me when I was gonna leave because they told me I couldn’t enter that “I understand but I gotta do what I’m told.” The friend with me questioned race to be an issue and after that things got worse not one person was willing to give me an answer as to what I did wrong I’m literally lost as to why I couldn’t just be treated equally.

The ownership and management of this club is petty and classless. I did not enjoy my single trip here, and I was not surprised to see the issues arising online thanks to the owner believing he could harass someone away from remaining on property that did not belong to him with his online following.Anyway, this place could use a few food trucks outside.

Typical country racist bar! Walked in with my hat backwards and they told me they dont like people like me at their establishment... The funny thing is though I dont claim to be country but Im more than any of the so called country people they hire.....

Great place to be. Awesome bartenders and floor walkers

I don’t do country but when I walked in I was ready to dance. Fun environment + affordable drinks. Be ready to hear country twang, hip hop bangers and the electric slide.

Good place to come out to with friends. Drink specials. Great bartenders. Very open and good music. Smoking patio is a big area in back.

A response from a Facebook post that you keep deleting and reposting:Guitars and Cadillacs let me set the record straight from my point of view (being the owner or The Cruisin’ Cafe) First, after reading some of the comments about taking advantage of others popularity..I see your point and didn’t see it from that prospective, so for that I apologize. If you sold food at your establishment then I would not have gone by to take that from you. Secondly, when I showed up around 6:30 pm I drove to your front door and a bouncer came to talk to me and did warn me that the owner runs off food trucks all the time, BUT, if I parked across the lot that there isn’t anything they could do about it (said it but said he didn’t “tell me that”) (to the bouncer that told me that, if you get fired, come work for one of my businesses, I could use someone up front & honest like you). So, that being said, I proceeded to park off the property and within the Legal City Zoning for a food truck (I have a map). Your cowboy bouncer tried to run me off twice by telling me they would make an announcement that my truck was dirty & had roaches. The threats only made my resolve stronger (by the way, had you sent someone less “uncouth” (I like that word but seldom get a chance to use it) I would have left right away (maybe, hindsight and all). But I Digress...The EMPLOYEE you sent to order the 3 Al Pastor tacos was a smart move on your part. Next time have him drive up and walk to my truck and look like a patron. I found it odd that you were so against food trucks yet let a “patron” walk in with the food he bought from us and not get sent outside 🤔 (FYI that was the only person that ordered before we left [statistically that is very improbable that he actually got sick off of our food]) As to your general manager coming outside showing me the texts from the owner saying if I didn’t leave he would BASH me on Facebook and it would destroy my business be cause you have 10k followers if I didn’t leave immediately, which I did shorty after (BTW how’s that working?) Lastly I put myself out there with my post based on the Principal of it all, I took your original post and added it to mine to show that I wasn’t scared what would happen if some people believed it. I’m a firm believer that there is enough business for all business owners who will get out there and hustle, innovate, and give customer service.I thank, we all thank, the Food Truck at your place was a nice idea, BUT, not pointin’ any fangers, the setup could been better. So how ‘bout, not so close next time, but next time, we do the truck right, and we go FULL REGALIA (DJANGO minute 41:35 for those scratching their heads)My wife and I are always looking for somewhere new to go. After reading Facebook responses and Google reviews, I can say we will never step foot in your trash heep.

This place could really use some food trucks outside. Any decent bar are club usually has a few. Nice to be able to get a bite after leaving.

Its a great place 4 a get away. 2 relax & listen 2 some great country music. Best bartender in town, its all gd..

Wow! Don’t have a good time here. If you’re not a local, you’re screwed. I’m happy to post my experience with my name because they won’t answer the phone anyway. Cowards. If I could give zero, I would.

Was visiting from out of town and decided to check out college night. One and done with that one. A bunch of trash bags walking around in booty shorts and cowboy boots. The DJ sucked ass as well and it closed at 12. If youre not from Abilene Id suggesting not going like ever lol!

Great mix of old and new country music for an older and younger mixed crowd! Awesome slick cement dance floor for those with work boots on to dust the mud off!

Like the mafia, if they dont get their money, good luck. Filled with ppl who get OVERSERVED (have seen MANY vomiting) then run drivers and A FOOD truck off after they claim he had roaches and a person got sick (not how it works) but they will let a man out of a truck sell food every night??? Which one is worse? Go to the zone or anywhere else.

So fun!

How the staff doesnt have permanent hearing loss yet is beyond me

My husband and I enjoy dancing 💃 at G & C.We go around 7 and leave before 10:30.

If it wasnt for the bouncers distinguishing against me because Im blank then would of been a great tone but since Im blank and since Im black that makes a difference

Pulled in with my rig across the way and enjoyed my time there. Thursday night was alot of young women in there 😉

Been there twice now. Started working there tonight. All I seen was good people gettin down n having a good time.

Worst bar ever. Unless youre a redneck trump supporter or a cowboy boots wearing pansy you wont fit in

Came back into town and this place hasnt changed. Less people than usual but it was still fun.

Great Place to have drink specials especially on Wednesdays... always have an Awesome time when i go there!!

Loud country bar with some attentive bartenders, but the crowd can be a bit wild.

Too loud. A whole bunch of drunk Billy Bobs thinking the have something to prove.Great White Russians though!!

RACIST BAR!! NEVER GOING BACK !! Didnt let me in because I was from Mexico. DO NOT GIVE THESE UNEDUCATED PEOPLE YOUR MONEY!

Awesome bartender, Sunny i do believe, good music, and great vibe, i will be back

We had a great time, nice staff.

Dont forget your phone in the car.

Love this place beautiful bar!!!

If I could leave 0, I would. If you don’t have belt loops on, don’t even try going. stupid.

Abilenes finest show up here. By that I mean trash.

Lose the dress code, it’s Abilene TX…

Change the dj he plays the same songs every Saturday night.Needs to update music.

Great place! Had fun, good DJ!

Most fights seem to be carried out the front door. There is transportation to and from your car

Good place...just dont like when people try and fight

Good time, pretty average country bar

Fun, good atmosphere, great beer

Great staff great music amazing people

Good music, great bartenders!

Not a bad place for the younger crowd.

Music could be more versatile instead of mostly country.

Good time on a Friday night for a lonely heart.

Greatest dance hall in the big country!!!

Too loud and stuck to only one bartender with an opened tab...

Having a good time.... Lots of people ( women)!!!!

Big but always same music no change

Very trendy local Honky-tonk

Come on Wednesdays!!! .50 wells 7 - 9

This place is just as trashy as the owner.

Good beer and cocktails!
