| - .... where the deer and the antelope, and the cowboy, and the old fart, and the cholo, and the crack ho, and the cool NY bartender, and the karaoke star, and the parolee all plaaaayyy!
Seriously, this place is a melting pot... a United Nations of the thirsty, hungry, and hungover. At first, I was afraid that at any moment some kind of fight was bound to break out.
Nope, everyone seemed to know everyone. I'm sure if I were able to visit more, I'd get to hug and air-kiss that cool bartender too!
We visited this place a couple of times during our visit, and at both times I felt both comfortable and nervous. Now, that's a real dive bar for ya. I kid, I kid.
Although this place is indeed a dive, they serve food - burgers, pizza, cheese crisps (open-faced quesadilla, or Mexican pizza as I like to call it), deep fried mushrooms, fries, etc... Oldman had a chili-cheese burger, which was just the right size and messy, but not too messy - a two-napkin kind of burger. I had a deluxe cheese crisp, and I have to say, I don't know why I haven't made my quesadillas this way (topped with mushrooms, red peppers, and onion). They have a few pool tables, which were always in use, and Karaoke EVERY night. If you're in the area, I recommend checking this place out, especially if the NY bartender gal is working!
