If you're looking for a relatively quiet place to have a drink and unwind, I would HIGHLY recommend checking out another bar. However, if loud and rowdy is more your style, then come on in!
Let's get the obvious out of the way... this place is small. Granted there are probably smaller bars out there, but it's definitely one of the smallest ones in the area. There's bar seating and maybe 5 tables, plus a pool table. If you like your bars intimate, then this place is for you! A slight word of caution: It's very VERY likely that if you will go here on almost any night of the week you will run into local students from the two nearby colleges. (It's local and cheap... Every college student's dream.) That brings me to my next point: This place is cheap. And I don't mean like a few cents cheaper than your average beer cheaper, but cheaper as in $10 in mixed drinks may leave you with a drunken state of mind. (Public Service Announcement: Don't drink and drive, people. Please.) Anyway, one thing unique to this place is their notorious "Shot Book". It's a hand written recipe drink book. Shots are generally $1.75/ea and mixed drinks anywhere between $2-$4.50/ea depending on the drink. They used to have a super old and much cooler "Shot Book", but someone unfortunately stole it.
All in all, if you're looking for a fun and relatively cheap night out.. give the good old Penn Ave a try. Bring a buddy and play a few rounds of pool. read more
