  First, this place is upstairs from the subs and pizza. Just a note.
  
  I can't think of a more overhead flourescent & brightly lit hole in the wall I've ever been to in my life, but Im kinda in love with that. It's Harlan for gods sakes.
  
  Bartender was a young ginger kid named Nick, who was apologetic about having to charge me $5 for Makers, just for that, I tipped him $5, good kid, I liked him.
  
  Lots of coal mining signs and memorabilia, under the bright lights, you can't miss em'.
  
  Any eastern Appalachian will see the big ol sign for mags apple pie moonshine, it's just apple cider with a cinnamon stick. Don't get excited, but hell when in Rome...
  
  Regardless stop by before 10pm on a Friday & buy a god damn whiskey from this kid. Maybe he can use the money to get a better haircut and a bus ticket outta Harlan. One can only hope.
