Located in the district, this open seating, open air bar is the prefect spot to chill out with friends. It is loud, the walls are covered with a "graffiti" menu of appetizers, and the waitresses are all friendly and cute! Maybe this is why my boyfriend always want to go...hmm. Another issue altogether...Anyway, their beer on tap is pretty good, and they offer a few other selections as well, but don't go for the mixed drinks. Anytime a friend has ordered one, they either didn't have it, or it wasn't very good. This is a beer joint. Especially If you're a Miller Lite (L-I-T-E, if you've heard the commercials) fan. Al's is always packed in the summer, and pretty calm during the colder months, so if you want a crowd and a lively atmosphere, head out while the weather is warm. When it's cold the crowd seems to shift to Kennedy's, the nice lounge/restaurant next door.
Recommended drink: Miller Lite, of course
Recommended company: It is always the best when you have a crowd meeting up at Al's. It is loud and fun, so don't go here on a date!
