  What can I say about the East Side Club (ESC)?
  
  Suzie, Tammy, Helen and Christy know their business. As the ESC bartenders, they'll booze you up, call you a cab, kick you out and welcome you back after you've sobered up and stopped causing trouble. Now, if you're not causing trouble, so long as you can stand and speak in full English sentences, you're good!
  
  A private club, the ESC is tucked in the north-ish, east-ish side of Manchester, just across from Hess gas and next to 7-11. This is very convenient, as you will inevitably need cigarettes at some point in the night and when its time to go, will have the convenience of the cheapest gas in town.
  
  The ESC offers a rather decent selection of bar fare food items from the kitchen tucked off in the corner, cooked by...well, i can't remember. It was at one time the club regular Don who cooked for us, but since he was "let go," he's been replaced. The food went kind of down hill, but being that it was a rather high and large hill to begin with, its still not all that bad.
  
  With free pool, free darts and regular card games, the ESC offers a full bar at ridiculously low prices and as a sweetener its one of the only places left in NH where one can smoke and drink AND eat at the same time.
  
  So, want to come along to the ESC? Well, good luck. As a private club, it requires a membership, pass code and sponsor to get in. But don't worry, with over 800 members, you're bound to run across someone who can get you in and once you're there...you're family...family with some of the most friendly motly drunks and oddball old timer bikers you'll likely meet this side of the Merrimack river.
