This place can be a magnet for me. When out shopping in the Market, how easy is it to get sucked in for a pint? And with a beer selection that is as well thought out as the soundtrack picked out by the friendly bartender, selecting one is not that easy. I realize people call this a dive bar, but if they saw what was there before, Thirsty and Miserable is a step up as a place that is not too scary or intimidating for anybody to enter. Whether you are a tourist interested in soaking up the culture that is embedded in this tiny section of a huge city, or a local looking for an excuse to hang out with the neighbours, I highly recommend Thirsty and Miserable for a stop over for one or more pints of magically delicious amber nectar.
