My favorite watering hole by John H. at InsiderPages
This is a drinking man's (woman's) bar. It's a place where townies and students can peacefully coexist and if not Mike will throw you down the stairs on your noggin. Just kidding, but seriously- the staff doesn't miss a beat- if you are an obnoxious douchebag or a drunk who is way past his/her limit you will be asked once to leave. Do not let there be a second time.
If you are a fun-loving spirit who knows where to get a good drink and meetup with cool people- you will end up here. It is an excellent value, good stiff drinks that are not overpriced or watered down. You can get everything from PBR to fancy foo foo drinks and Saki. It's no frills, so you won't find little crappy umbrellas in your tiki glass- but you will be pleased.
Plenty of pool tables and dartboards and rooms with different volume levels. It would be nice if they accepted debit/credit cards, but no dice. They do have an ATM machine, but it's best to plan ahead- bring cash and tip well.
