Donahue's Hourglass

A dive of the ages. Joe is aged and awesome. He can talk about history for hours. Don't expect anything fancy, and stick with beer.

The best bar in Wilkes-Barre. A real bar. Not a douche-a-torium like the Hardware Bar or Mulligans. Not a fancied-up bar with IPAs (whatever the hell that is) or micro-brews or martinis with fruit. Limited beer selection. Two kinds of bourbon (if you're lucky.) But most importantly, Joe the bartender/proprietor holding court on politics, dispensing trivia questions and analyzing handwriting samples of awestruck customers.

Great!
