Great Bar, Great beers

by big_gus

This bar has an awesome beer selection and the bartenders and owners are all very friendly. While this place does get very crowded on Friday and Saturday nights, it is much less so earlier, and this is the best time to go here. The perfect place to spend a Sunday afternoon/evening. Weekends they play english premier league games.

  • Pros: Great atmosphere, great selection
  • Cons: none
