| - After work, I was invited to the MacAyo happy hour, enticed with free food. After riding my bike about 7 miles and not successfully finding a bike rack (locked it to the gate in the back), I attacked the buffet. A lactose-intolerant vegetarian, I loaded up on salad, tortilla chips, quac and beans. It is totally gringo-even I can tell, but it hit the spot and I didnt have to hit the toilet as the true cost of "free food" later. The drink specials were decent (got a Dos Equis glass, then cheap refills) and the large group just chilled out.
The real star was the MUSIC. Dude-they were playing VIDEOS of top 40 hip hop AND old-school. Fucking "Poison", "Humpty Dance", and "OPP"? All right by me. The crowd disappeared by like 8 something onto real dinner or getting ready for their real night out (like all of us were).
This place I wouldn't go out of the way for-but to hang out with friends with cheap booze, simple fatty eats, ample seating and early 90s jamz in Tempe? Not bad.
