To sexyjen75. Judging by your name, you're the type we'd see at "Greenstreet", where people go for attention and to be noticed.

Ex Wife's is the most comfortable bar I've ever been to. The people there are completely genuine and I've RARELY seen a fight (only when idiot "new-comers" become belligerent ).

I met some of my closest friends (including boyfriend) there. They are great unique and interesting people. Rarely do you see the phony EMO/Trendy crowd. It's AWESOME!

Also - You will RARELY find a Republican A$$ Hat in this Bar. I'm sure you just don't know much about politics, but A LOT about being "sexi" though. That's ok...

Only Bar Like It in SLC. I'e been visiting the ex-wifes for some time now, and I have to say that the reason I keep goig back is that the people there are awesome. Not justthe bar staff, but all of the customers as well.Some of my best friends I met there. Really, thedrinks are inexpensive, and the juke box is killer! (Ween, Atom and his package, Charles Mingus, Dead Kennedys, ect. ect.) Oh,and I've never really seen anyone ever fight there. Very chill.

republicans?. who are you? clearly we didn't want you in the bar if that is the impression you got of us. almost no real patrons drink budwiser by the way. as for the republican comment if you are an extreme hippy then relative to the usuall customers you might be, uh, further left but, also more smelly then the regulars. be assured that the right is not welcome in this bar.

A down-to-earth establishment with a good history and even better bloody marys.. The Scene
The clientele is varied: You can find all types hanging out at the bar or shooting pool. Five pool tables line the north side of the club, while two dart boards, the bar and a smattering of tables occupy the south side. All kinds of music can be found in the jukebox, though it's a rare night when you don't hear Jimi Hendrix, Led Zeppelin or Bob Marley. One of Salt Lake's best-kept secrets is behind the club: A spacious and very comfortable patio.

The Draw
Regulars come for the cocktails, while newbies are drawn in by the quirky name. Drinks are affordable and stiffly poured. Order one of the best bloody marys in town then slip back onto the patio for some laid-back conversation. This is a no-nonsense kind of bar--so patrons know to check their pretensions and attitude at the door.

where the working class go to play. When I am all done working, and just want to go somewhere fun and great, I go to X-wifes place!! Not only is the service served with a smile, the drinks are inexpensive. I was very impressed that this was one of the only bars in Utah NOT to raise their prices for the 2002 Olympics!! Says something about the bar itself. The employees actually care about the customers. It is a bar "where everybody knows your name". Or at least you WANT them to!!
