| - I guess the your opinion of the BBT is all about what you want. If you want to eat a meal and have a beer or two this place is fine, but the real attraction is Dollar Beer Night, on thursdays, where a selection of craft beer and some assorted lagers and domestics are on sale for 1.00+tax.
The beer on Dollar Beer Night is... random. I have a feeling it is discount cases of beer or overstock. But that's not such a bad thing! I've had some really good beers that I never knew about! Arcadia Barlywine Ale was supurb, but that was the one time I found it. But most of the time it's kind of, well, the mediocre side of craft beer. But seriously, they're a dollar.
I don't know anything about polish food really, but I know about a Kielbasa Sandwich, and theirs was damn good (damn good), but when I got it what I really ordered was their Sausage Sandwich, which was obviously similarly named, but on their menu and I normally want what I ordered.
Stay away from the appetizers. The "Bridge Fries" are just microwaved fries with cheese on them. The fired mushrooms, cheese sticks and the rest of that sort of lot is always served very sparingly. The fried mushrooms are of the type that stay luke warm in the middle and hold water inside them, which is awful common, and I don't know what the difference is, but still very different than the ideal of a fried mushroom we all have in our head. There's nothing entirely bad about this lot, but nothing really good about it either.
The atmosphere, well, it's okay. It doesn't really have anything to detract me from the place, especially on Dollar Beer Night, but again, there's nothing quite right and there's nothing quite wrong. Steve, the owner, just really doesn't seem to care much. His son provides service with a smile, and is probably good looking enough to keep a few women coming back, but isn't horribly engaging. The decor of the place is, non existent, I suppose you could say. The patio is nice. The inside is, well, I can't really think of anything to say about it. The bathrooms are proper dive bar, even though this place, to me, doesn't have dive bar cred.
To me, this place doesn't have dive bar cred, except the dollar beers. The shots are 4.40 for well, yuenglings are 2.50, but that's not really rare. There isn't really anything amusing to keep me interested. There used to be pool in the basement, but now the pool table is covered with boxes of beer.
BBT, you just need a little infusion. Just a little, but something.
Let's put it this way, without the dollar beers, I don't come here, but see you on Dollar Beer Night.
