So for old times sake, our first bar on this Tour De Mixer is Thirsty Buffalo, located in the uber-attractive Elmwood Village
Strength of Drinks: Meh...nothing to write home about but for $3 what can you say?
Bartender Appeal: Meh...the blond bartender needs someone to assist her! She's super slow and forgetful...but makes up for it with free drinks...so on a rating scale of one-five cocktails, I give her a three
General Ambience: Good for a random bar...does fill up with tools later in the evening...I blame it on the abundance of TVs
By the time the rest of us arrived around 8ish, Blondie had backup. A few of us showed up with in our field clothes from work and nobody looked at us funny. The bar food was yummy, the prices were reasonable, and the football game was on, for those who cared. Those who didn't care couldn't escape it... I would have preferred music with the game on mute for those who would rather watch football than have a conversation.
ReplyDeleteVerdict: I concur with Independent Mess... Good place to meet up with people to watch a game. Come as you are, no need to get fancy.
