Best Worst Bartender in the City
4 Star Rating: Recommended

04/12/2007 Posted by doublespanshack

This place deserves a review in CitySearch. They've got real people, and real drink prices. With dollar drafts you'll find millionaires waltzing in for annonymity and to just hang with regular people, and you'll find someone try to get a beer with 88 cents. It's ecclectic, and they have more adornments of antiquity than you can shake a finger at. They have a batman alarm clock that I had when I was 6. The bartenders are from Macedonia, a mother son team. They make you feel at home and gladly argue with you if they think you are wrong. If you can't take it don't go. But I enjoy their honesty. You are, of course, welcome to argue back and still be served. Dollar drafts, 50 cent pool, and 7 plays on the juke for a dollar.

Pros: Dollar drafts, 50 cent pool, 7 plays on the juke for a dollar

Cons: Dive bar, all that comes within a dive bar

Editor's Review

Divey yet unscary bar that serves cheap drinks to non-scene-seekers in Lakeview.  See the full editorial review.

Insider Tips

Jump Start

This is the kind of place you head to for a draft and a shot before moving on to somewhere else; avoid ordering anything complicated--the glazed-over look you'll likely get will have you squirming in your seat.
