Darkstar Tavern

I'm a fan of this as a good neighborhood bar. Granted, I wouldn't probably drive there from Germantown for drinks, but if I'm grabbing dinner over on Frankfort - definitely. Decent prices on drinks - Sam Adams seasonal (which was awesome!) was 3.50 as was wells. Not too shabby. There were pool tables a crazy but cool "jukebox" that looked like a huge iPod. And other than the very first song playing when we walked in, I was a fan of it. Range of mostly rock, a little rap and a bit of pop. A great bar to take it easy in, have drinks, hang out, and actually be able to have a conversation with new or old friends.

Haven't had any of the food, so can't speak to that, but it is too much of a bar for me to want to go there for dinner anyways. If I decide to snack next time I'll add in the review for that!

Staff not that friendly and its expensive: $4.00 for a draft isn't cheap people!  Cool atmosphere so 2 stars for that and the chicken strips that  were good but very small pieces!  This place shouldn't be listed at ($)should be ($$) at least. Come on with this economy I want $1 - 2.75 specials and their special was at $4!? On Friday night?! That's not special that's regular price! No way Jose.

Another laid-back fave.

Decent seating.
Decent bar food.
Drinks are comfortably priced.
Pool tables, if that's your thing...which are always fun!
A digital juke box with an AWEsome range in selection. I always spend extra money to play some music. But you will hear a wide variety of music, as the people there are an eclectic bunch.

I just like going here. *shrug*
