| - I'm so torn about Water Street Tavern. They have some of the best happy hour specials in Kent. And Cajun Dave's is nestled inside and serves up some delicious food. But this place is like a magnet for DBs of both the male and female variety. For me, dealing with that type of crowd isn't worth the cheap drinks or good food.
The earlier in the evening you go to Water Street, the safer you are. Go right around dinner time and you're golden. In fact, you'll probably want to start your Kent bar crawl here. They have a $2 happy hour until 9pm every single day. Most mixed drinks are only $2 as are most domestics. That's cheaper than every other bar in the area. The bartenders are definitely on the snobby side. They represent their traditional clientele well. This can be an issue when they ignore you to chat with their friends at the other end of the bar. That's fine, just don't expect me to tip you.
The huge bonus at Water Street is Cajun Dave's. You can't get Cajun Dave's without going into Water Street, so you may not even know it exists. But it's good. Options range from jambalaya to pizza to po boys. I've never had something off their menu that I didn't like. Not culinary genius, of course, but good nonetheless.
So go early, get tipsy, eat some delicious fries, and get the hell out before the place becomes DB central. Trust me, it's better that way.
