| - Double Helix, Town Square
- An elegant, comfortable, cozy place for happy hour (3:30-7:30, DAILY), either at its classy bar or in the attractive patio by the courtyard. It has an EXTENSIVE menu for drinks ($3-7 for beer, wine; 1/2 price cocktails, whiskey) and bar dishes ($3-6)!

DETAILS:
- There are several nice places in Town Square that I like to relax in over happy hour, and Double-Helix is among the top on my list, for its quiet ambience, great selection of drinks and bar food at very reasonable prices, as well as excellent, friendly service! It's the place of choice, when I prefer a quieter ambience; and/or when I'd like to try its whiskey special, also. Yes, they have flights of 4 different whisky combos on the menu.
- Its horseshoe-shaped bar counter is small, but comfortable and inviting. Its beautiful display shelves showcase a great variety of whiskeys! From the bar, one can see the cozy, nicely furnished patio by the busy courtyard. The tiny dining area around the bar counter has an intimate ambience. Other than the courtyard, there is no view, however.
MY HAPPY HOUR EXPERIENCE:
- I enjoyed my happy hour here a couple of weeks ago. I had Stuffed Olives ($3); Arancini ($6), a Stella ($3.5); a glass of Sauvignon Blanc ($4). The olive dish came with six stuffed olives, which looked cute and were bursting with flavor! Arancini tasted a bit bland, but ok with djon muster dip.
- A couple of gentlemen at the bar had a flight of 4 whiskey brands. I forgot the name of the flight, but remembered they said 3 of the four were absolutely superb! According to them our bartender, Jessica is an expert on whiskey. She was very friendly, efficient, and attentive to all customers. All serving staff was friendly, and helping each other out - good training and practice.
- Wish it'd have reverse happy hour, too, for the after movie crowd!
