It wouldn't be a bad idea to also drop dates of bands playing at bars in here.

This being "The Pub" and all. What about Sticky'in this and the Beer Thread. No?

or, just pick up a Metro Pulse at many of these locations.

That could work too.

[bigdaddy]

So how is that english pub thing in the old city....crappy?

[doozer]

never been. if i'm going to the Old City, it's to go to Barley's. at least 40 beers on tap and great pizza. don't know of any specials off the top of my head.

[bigdaddy]

Used to hang at the urban bar for happy hour and I want to say they had 2 pints and 1/2 price booze. I have not been in a while so things might have changed.

Parkside Grill has happy hour just about everyday until about 10:00 I believe and they have half priced appetizers (if you sit in the bar area)...

Then you have Rookies with the smallest happy hour wings in town right down the road from there if you want to be more casual.

[Rasputin_Vol]

Knoxville needs a Taco Mac, also.

[doozer]

agreed.

i went to one in ATL with 100+ beers on tap. i couldn't believe it.

[bigdaddy]

We have one here in Chatt but the beers are way expensive. A Taco-Mac that is.

That is because they have some exotic imports that are in bottles.

The draft beer prices seemed pretty reasonable... not happy hour reasonable, but not egregiously expensive.

Back in the day Sunspot had a good Wednesday wine night.
