Peppered with Schlitz paraphernalia, playbills and worse-for-wear seating that's surprisingly comfy, this approachable, low-key space is easy to settle into for an inexpensive brew or two. – – The Draw – One of the few bastions of affordable alcohol remaining, here you'll find everyday…

Nice place, very low key. Good prices on drinks and great jukebox.
Comfy Cool
