Paulie's Pub & Grille

I like Paulie's.  Good sports viewing and decent beer selection.  The food is all pretty good.  Great trivia game on Thursday nights.  Good specials.   I'm there a couple times a month and it is probably my favorite place in the area.

Great neighborhood pub in the burbs with colorful regulars and warm, clean, and comfortable atmosphere. With a bunch of good beer on tap, a solid beef sandwich, and a good Ruben there is always a reason to stop in. Oh by the way, three big screens and a bunch of other flat screens make it a good spot for a game.

This place really has its ups and downs with me. It used to be my go to local bar that had great food and service, but I feel like it has started to fall apart over the last 2 years. Their food is slightly over priced for bar food, but they have excellent drink deals that more than make up for it. The burger is great when it is cooked right. Sometimes its cooked perfect, other times, its cooked way too long. Their spicy chicken sandwich is awesome. A lot of kick to it, but is very flavorful. Their fries are the best around. They used to be a great spot for watching UFC fights, and claimed to be the #1 spot for UFC, and used to claim NEVER A COVER for UFC. That quickly went away and they started charging cover, and now they no longer carry the fights.  I do not know if its bad luck, but I have gone there 2x over the last year, and they were closed due to a private party. Both were Saturday nights. The waitress staff is very friendly, and they have good service. I feel like they have a new staff every time I go in there though. Overall, this is one of the top local bars around that has good food, good service, and is very clean. Good place to watch sporting events.
