It has a great mix of regulars, occasionals, and first timers, providing for a great atmosphere. There is no \"one kind\" of clientele, which is what makes this place awesome. \n\nThey have nightly drink specials, pool tourneys on Tuesdays ($5 entry), free pool Wednesdays after 8pm, and karaoke every other Saturday, among others.\n\nTo save the best for last, I'll comment on their service. The girls who tend bar know how to bartend - and that is a rare commodity these days. They recognize the regulars, welcome the newbies, and actually TALK with customers.\n\nAnd for their mixing skills, ask for something off-the-wall when they're not packed, and see their face light up at the chance to make a specialty drink for the first time in years, or even better, for the first time.\n\nAnd about the lack of a kitchen, no worries. There are food joints nearby that will deliver to the bar directly, even if they normally don't deliver. Just ask the bartender - they'll tell you which places will run it over, and even get you a take-out menu.\n\nIf you've been looking for bar that is not trying to be more than a bar, as so many places try to be these days, head over to North Central. Great atmosphere, great conversation, awesome service - best bar in the valley to have a drink, play some pool, and catch a game."^^ . "0"^^ . "2011-07-07T00:00:00"^^ .
