Franklin's Bottle Shop

Suck!  We had heard great, great things about this place.  We went on a Monday.  There was no beer in the fridge and the place was filthy.  I felt like I had walked in to a college student's dorm room after a big party.  The bartender almost looked up from his newspaper as he served us.  There was only one other customer while we were there, and I can't fathom why the bartender wasn't sweeping or cleaning off all the dirty tables.

I love beer, but this place was just awful - maybe because there was no beer.

GREAT beer! Selection is always rotating, always good, unique stuff that you don't find anywhere else. You do not come here for Coors Light.

They don't serve food, but you can bring in food from other downtown restaurants. Sometimes the folks from Church Street Pizza bring over extra pizzas or cheese bread (one time it was marked "REALLY F****ING HOT" and they were not talking about the temperature of it, as we discovered).  Just don't bring in fast food - independent business supporting other independent businesses! Rad.
