The venue is an older building and can use an update, but every time I am here, the service and the food is consistently fresh and tasty. Surprisingly good dishes beyond the normal bar fare too. On our last visit on a Friday night, our server Kevin was friendly and helpful in offering menu suggestions and letting us know about specials. We ordered pizza, wings and sliders off of the Happy Hour Bar Menu. For four drinks (two were non-alcoholic) and several apps, our bill was under $60. Not bad at all and we even had extra food to take home. For events, Amy here often goes above and beyond to ensure a great customer experience. The parking lot gets filled here fast on a busy bowling night, but in all, Bar Down is a fun, local place to hang out and watch a sporting event.

The ownership helps give it character, and that neighborhood feel goes a long way. Beyond game day, though, the experience can be a little uneven. The food and overall draw are fairly standard, and the crowd can occasionally tilt in the wrong direction.

The kids love it and I am always happy to direct new families to try Georgio's after their math sessions. We couldn't have a successful Pi Day Party without Georgio's!!

The bar is pretty neat because they have little hooks to hang your purse / bag and they have plugs at every single seat so you can charge your phone or laptop while you're sitting at the bar. There are lots of television sets all set on different sports channels so you can watch that while you're here as well. They have a full bar with lots of great beers on tap.
