  • One of the cheaper if not the cheapest places in Southside. Bartenders are nice and quick to refill an empty glass. The countless times I've been there it was not crowded at all. The younger college kids seem to be pulled further down the street to the loud music and date rape prospects. There is a very eclectic mix of people that seem to be regulars. If you are meeting up with people in Southside to cruise all the other bars this place is a great meeting spot and you can pregame with a couple reasonable/cheap prices drinks before you go elsewhere and pay $8 for a rum and coke. They don't have a big selection of beer but they have bottles and draught of the standards. Their juke box is a touchtunes or ami, I can't remember, with Internet access that you can play from your phone and has an amazing catalog of music. They have pretty good happy hour and run specials during sporting events (I think one may be $2 pbr during pirates and penguins games). Overall I would rate this 8.5 out of 10. I can't think of anything bad to say but if you are the partier type and looking for the whole Southside vibe it's not your place. HOWEVER if you want to avoid affliction t-shirts, girls with broken heels, or people lecturing you about quitting smoking and starting vaping then you will enjoy this place. It is a smoking bar. That might be a turn off to some but the upstairs area is large enough that it isn't a filled with second hand smoke and I think they have smoke eaters by the upstairs bar. When you first walk in don't judge the first impression. Directly inside the door is a bar with I think booths against one wall. It looks like a 60s diner kind of, and not on purpose. It is actually old and not just trying to attract the nostalgic crowd or the hipsters. My suggestion is walk directly passed the downstairs bar and turn left then go into the other half of the downstairs where there are two pool tables and a little window to the bar where you can order drinks from that side. Also what my group of friends or even just my girlfriend and I do is go upstairs where the bar is usually empty. There are two more pool tables waiting. These four pool tables are not dive bar pool tables. They are fast and level. The felt is in good condition and obviously taken care of. There are no divots or uneven areas on the surface. The house cues are straighter than almost any place I had been to. You can come in and rent a table for as long as you want I believe. I been on one for 3 hours without a word being said. Just ask the bartender and they will give you a tray of balls. The balls are in great condition and alive. I do suggest treating the tables with respect though. Drunk girls trying to dance on the tables or people sitting on them is not cool. I just realized I am reviewing their pool tables more than the bar but in my opinion they are a big reason why the place is so great. I suggest next time you are in the area stop in, afternoon or night, it doesn't matter. It is Southsides best kept secret.
