What people say, in short
Stage Door is repeatedly recommended as a casual dive-bar stop just off the Strip, especially for inexpensive beer and simple hot-dog deals. Two commenters enjoy its people-watching, and one singles out the jukebox. The rough-edged setting is not for everyone: a visitor found it less pleasant at night, and others describe lingering smoke. Reports about having to buy several beers together conflict, so an old comment should not be treated as a current ordering rule.
