Paci's Cafe

Great beer at a great price.  The place is a bit small but there is a large outdoor area when the weather is nice and there is darts and skeeball inside.  There is an upstairs section that reminds me of someone's basement which I thought was pretty cool.  The people who run it are very friendly and the crowd seems to be pretty laid back.  Great place to go for fun on a budget.

This little NKC bar is hidden in plain sight.   I pass it all the times and don't notice it...   I enjoy it but I always forget it's there.   Yet people do manage to find it, enough that it seems to almost always be busy.

The address confusion noted in the previous review stems from the fact that Paci's USED to be located around the corner on Armour.   They moved about 4 years ago.   Why they never updated their web site I don't know.

The last time I was here they had Guinness on tap.   This was one of the few places I've been that actually served it at the right temperature.

Paci's has a very large selection of bottled beers.   There are lots of unique and foreign beers available to try.   They claim to have the biggest selection of bottled beer in town  (a claim the bartender told me before Flying Saucer opened so I don't know if they still claim that).   Based on what I can see in the cooler I have my doubts and I think there may be a couple of places around town with more -- but not many.

Shhh! This place tries to fly under the radar. Seriously. It is not on Armour, but around a corner that looks like nothing much.  The address is confusing...the website lists one and google lists another. The proprietor told me "It doesn't matter, people can find us."
I've been there a few times and the place is always packed. It is a very small joint. Lots of friendly people, lots of beer and lot's of live solid blues and jazz music. On Saturdays the music starts around 3pm. They have a limited menu...just a couple homemade stews or chili's that hit the spot with a cold beer and blues.
The owners are always behind the bar and amongst the crowd.

A cool place that is hidden. Seek and you shall receive.
