| - Coug-tastic!
Came here with some friends for a low-key Friday night, not expecting much excitement and ended up having a blast! We got there around 7:30 (just missed their HH which stops at 7pm) to have a few drinks and some apps. I like that they have a "skinny menu" for those that are calorie conscious. I ordered their Firefly Sweet Tea Vodka (iced tea mixed with, guess what, sweet tea vodka) that only costs me 66 calories and was delicious. We split their wings, but were encouraged by the waitress to try their sliders as that is really what they are known for. But, alas, we weren't super hungry so we just had the wings, which were pretty good and watched some college football. The bar has tons of televisions that had various games on and there is also a section with two pool tables and a few arcade games.
The place had about half of their tables filled with a mixed crowd of cowboys and younger tattooed folk until about 8:30 when my friends and I became the only ones under 45 years old. Apparently at 9pm a cover band called the Aaron Nelson Project comes on for some live music that really gets the crowd moving. My one friend and I couldn't help but join in on the fun to a few songs, but we all agreed the songs they played reminded us of being at a wedding. Anyhoo, this place gets packed with 45+ cougars and sugar daddies all on the prowl and thanks to our guy friend, we got free shots from one of the cougars! If you are a twenty or thirty-something looking for something a little different on a weekend night, I would give Eli's a try!
Recap:
a) Happy hour ends at 7pm
b) multiple large TV's that are great for games
c) around 8:30 the cougars and sugar daddies come out
d) bring a younger guy friend for free shots from the decked out cougs!
P.S. You might see me prowlin' here in 20 years ;)
