The Scene
Bare-bones decor, accented by an odd hand-drawing of the Pillsbury Dough Boy, twangy tunes and a crowd of scruffy regulars do little for the VIP set, but the low-key atmosphere, cheap booze and "anyone's welcome" vibe is irresistibly inviting. The diverse crowd may include the purple-haired/pierced set liquefying alongside balding, beer-bellied types.
The Draw
From Blake Shelton to Tim McGraw, you'll hear all the current country favorites here. Basic bar beverages--namely beer, mixed drinks and Jager shots--wash down average bar eats, including pizza puffs, cheeseburgers and hot wings, while a pool table occupies the idle not inclined to kick it on the hillbilly-heavy dance floor. Three dive-bar taps--Michelob, Old Style and Bud Light--sustain penny-pinchers; more elevated bottle-brands offer an upscale alternative. Weekend nights, a live house band covers the hits, and karaoke keeps things kooky on Thursday evenings.

On weekends, be sure to checkout the pub's house band, which plays an average of seven sets a night. The employees and clientele are distinctly Southern, and proud of it. Service is great and the drinks ar cheap.

I can't rave enough about this place. It looks incredibly sketchy from the outside, but on the inside you will find the beer is a flowing and the country western band is playing till 4am! In the crowd, you'll find your cowboys, your college students, your grandpas and your 20-somethings, and everyone eager to turn up a heel. It really gets going past 2am, and it well worth the late night!
