In an effort to expand my horizons locally, I ventured to the other side of the 17 to sample the local drinking establishments. Tony's is my kind of place. It's definitely a LOCAL bar -there are plenty of pool tables, the drinks are cheap so you really can't ask for more, can you?
I would rate categorize it as "Dive Plus"-it is definitely a neighborhood bar in a strip mall with a friendly, working-class local crowd who all know each other. It is VERY nicely maintained and is just a good place to hang out and knock back a few. I visited on a work night so I had to behave but this is the type of place I would stumble out of at 2:05am on weekends.
Definitely worth a visit.
