| - After living down the street from this bar for ~2 years, I finally ventured there last night and was very impressed! My friends and I took a cue from the other Yelpers and went to Stinky's during a Pens game and had a great time. We all got wings, (because who can pass up the Pens game special of $0.40 wings?!) and there were zero complaints. I got the "stinkers" flavor, which I was informed was a garlic, hot and bbq mix. They were delicious!! My mouth is still salivating and I may have licked the sauce off each finger in the most un-ladylike fashion, but I couldn't let any go to waste! Among my friends, we tried the Ranch, Hot and Cajun flavors and everyone liked what they got. The bartenders were friendly and made sure we knew right away of the specials, like when the Pens score, you get $2 off your next beer. Not only is this is an amazing deal, but I appreciated that the bartender informed us of this, as she probably realized it was our first time visiting.
As for the atmosphere, there are a ton of TV's, which makes watching the game convenient from wherever you're seated. The place was pretty big too - we had a table in the main area, but noticed a side room with some games and a back room with tables and pool table, maybe? Also, (as a girl I feel the need to proclaim this in writing,) Stinky's bathrooms were about the nicest/cleanest I've ever seen in a bar! The only small complaint is that it was a bit smoky, but I've learned to deal, and almost expect this, at most bars so it wasn't a deal breaker for me, at least.
If you're looking for a laid-back, no-frills type of bar to relax with your friends, I absolutely recommend this bar. Off the beaten path of Butler Street, it's like a little hidden gem in Lawrenceville. My friends and I can't wait to go back!
