Blackstone Pub & Eatery

We love Blackstone, though I DETEST smoking in restaurants.  I certainly hope our area catches up to surrounding towns in this matter.  

That being said, the beer selection is VERY impressive.  The pizzas are good, but rich.  I would love if they served some lighter fare.  Additionally, this would be a PERFECT Irish pub, so I would be thrilled if they took their food in that direction.  A great burger, shepherd's pie, etc would totally work in this space.  

Eliminate the smoking, and tweek the menu and this is the best place in town.

Went there to see what local beers they had, big mistake, it is a true southern bar with only bar food, and the entire place is SMOKING, Living in Oregon this was a surprise to me.  I will not return.

The only reason I can't give this bar 5 stars is the lack of handwashing i witnessed behind the bar... One of the bartenders was playing with her chewing gum and then reached into the jumbo jar of olives for someone's martini... gross.

Other than that, I love Blackstone... they make a delightful "grateful dead" and have excellent pizzas. Live music most nights of the week & a low or non-existent cover charge make this one of the best places to spend an evening in Gadsden. Good stuff.
