The Story:

If you are looking for nightly activities this might be your place. Nights with a DJ kick in around 9pm and Mondays offer Karaoke. Cocktails and jello shots are more the scene here and there appears to be a frequent costume theme that I haven't figured out yet. Overall this is a fun place with friendly staff.


Cheers to Contour!

The Story:

This place works for groups both big and small. Their ample bar space means you can usually find a good seat with a couple friends, or get seated at a long table if you came with a crowd.

They have a changing snack menu that has not failed to please in the few times I've visited here. They also have giant, cozy-looking fire pits outside, that I have yet to see opened up for use.

While I've not had trouble finding a seat at the bar here, keep in mind this place will be packed on game days due to its proximity to the stadium.


Cheers to QA!

The Story:

If you're looking for something more to do at a pub than just drink your beer then the Flat Stick Pub is worth a visit.  There are a handful of table games to play and even some putting lanes downstairs.

As far as the beer selection it's drink-by-the-numbers. The current selection of brews and ciders is on a digital menu on the wall above the taps numbered to match. Pub crawlers beware, however, this place is card only. No cash!

Fun rumor I learned about this place: Apparently for a brewer to gain space on this menu they are sometimes required to compete in games of mini-golf against fellow breweries.
