Really weird guys hanging around out front. Beer was warm. Wouldn't go back sober but if I was stumbling through the neighborhood blackout drunk at 1:30am I might stop in for a warm miller highlife nite cap.

It was pretty great, but the "food" tasted odd because he didn't wash beforehand. He was very respectful and even put the cuffs on himself. Mind you all of this is in the basement but the bar itself was good, the previously mentioned guy made a mean sidecar. Do NOT go into the garage.
