In Short – Equal parts dive bar and Polish community center, this Midway hang draws an older crowd that knows how to dance. The classic polka time of 2/4 dominates the rhythm of the bar by weekend, while weekdays are slower, allowing for quiet socializing. The spirits are cheap. Where else would you find $2 Polish liquor shots and $1 drafts of Old Style? Predictably, attention always turns to the billiards table, conversations about the old Polish republic or old men demanding another shot of potato vodka.
