Want the 90s? Want the it's? Want Great A/C in Texas heat? Look no further than Truelove. Great atmosphere you'd only expect from a dive bar that hasn't fallen apart. Disco balls, neon lights, karaoke and Great music with Mystery Science 3k playing on a t.v. at all times.

Great spot that was really surprising. We went earlier around 9pm but by 10:30 it started picking up with late one, dancing and every area has different music to suit the vibe.

Me and my buddy's started coming here on the weekends and I love the atmosphere and the staff I would give it 5 stars however me and my best friend went last weekend and one of the bartenders cut me off when I have had 4 drinks which I thought was pretty weird because I was still coherent and walking just fine im not going to say I was not drunk I was tipsy, but I did not really understand why or how I would have look/acted like "I was getting too drunk" shorty after they kicked me out. Overall its a great place to go just dont get " too drunk ". If any owner/manager sees this i hope im not too rude to ask some more clarification on why.

This is an amazing, inviting space for all walks of life. Karaoke from Heavy Metal to Disney. Daniel the bartender remembered our drinks from the night before. Great outdoor space and pool tables. Felt safe with security.
