Echo tap and grill is a loud bar with a lot of televisions playing sports games on the walls. All in all it's fairly ordinary, very loud, and has a poor layout on the interior. However, they have food and the prices for liquor and beer are quite fair.
This place is a drinker's tavern, similar to what you would find on the south side of Chicago but brighter and cleaner inside. There may be some yuppies and college kids around, but note those old horses at the bar -- they're the real ones who have likely been occupying that stool longer than you've been alive.
Recommended if you're ducking your AA meeting. Otherwise, you may wish to drink at your own risk.
