first time
This was my first time in SLC, had a difficult time following directions. Finally found Sun Trap entered was greeted very nicely by the doorman. Sat at the bar and was not even given so much as a hello mostly got what do you want, got my drink , tried to make conversation with the bartender but he was just consumed with himself and the other bartender. I walked around the bar and was checking out the back area where was a band playing and lots of people outside, I walked through the door and was immediately approached by an older woman who told me in no uncertain terms that it was a private party and I needed to leave. I apologized and said that it was my first time in the bar and I was just checking it out. I got no response from her just an hand on my arm and a push towards the door. Went back to the bar ordered another drink from an different bartender but got the same lack of enthusiasm from him too. Apparently they do not like new people in their place. I finished my drink and walked out the door. Once again the doorman thanked me for coming in and wished me a good night. Perhaps they should put him behind the bar because at least he had a pleasant personality and understood customer service. I have to return to SLC in a few weeks but I will consider spending my time or money at this unfriendly club.
Sun Trapp bar
The bar tenders are extremely rude and have bitchy attitudes. They have extremely slow service the bar tenders were eating while serving drinks. I was standing at the bar for ten minutes waiting to be served they don't even have a bathroom they have out houses for a bathroom I would never ever recommend that bar to any one or go there again
Drug Ridden and Clicky
I have never seen so many people doing cocaine in a bathroom in my life! If you're from out of town or of obvious non-US ethnic origin, expect to be shunned or insulted.
not impressed with the new bar
Went to the opening of the sun trapp and the place is cleaner but the back bar is poorly designed. All of the alcohol is 15 feet away from the lines so the bartenders run to the back to get anything they need. They helped their friends first and didn't tend the 2 lines - which didn't have any room to form with the tables a few feet away from them.
Not so good!
Little bar, mostly older regulars. Lots of obvious drug use going on. Especially in the bathrooms and if you are not model material nearly impossible to get waited on!
