Hey! Lets go to Pub Chug? Ug Pub? Snug Mug? Oh. Chug Pub.
This was my first time back in years... celebrating a coworkers bday yesterday.
As other have mentioned, this is your standard neighborhood dive but with a ton of charm.
Walking in, youll notice a long, narrow bar with a pool table in the back.
HH is from 4-8 with $3 beers and your standard pub food ranging from $5-$12.
Our group got the wings (which had the buffalo sauce and ranch on the side), fried mushrooms, nachos with fried chicken on top (yes, you heard dat right) and the waffle fries with what seemed like cheese-wiz.
All food was standing, nothing to write home about.
$3 big daddy IPAs were notable. We also ordered a few doubles of galvatron (151, patron, makers mark) which came out to $8 which was solid seeing as on polk street it can go for +/- $20.
What warrants a review was the patrons and bartender.
All patrons are the after-work locals who are just there for a damn good time. We occupied the pool table for a while but as others waited, we all chatted up and had friendly competition amongst eachother. It was a mixed bag of people yet everyone was fun, offered us drinks and even got us a round of pool. The bartender was super nice, had heavy pours and chatted up the whole bar as if she were one of us. These neighborhood dives can be a hit or miss when it comes to service, but chug pug slammed dunked it.
All in all, solid. Will absolutely be on rotation so I can give underdogs a break. wont be my all-night-long destination but i can see myself starting here to get the momentum going.
Come in, chug a beer, shoot some beer and have a jolly ol time.
