  Stopped in here on way home from seeing friends band play, was a great time. Found this place on yelp by looking for the dive bars in the area, we passed a few going to this place but found it to be a very welcoming little place.
  
  We wanted to sit at the bar but people were scattered in such a way that we couldn't sit together. People at the bar said we'll move and they invited us to join them. We had a great time talking to all the regulars and the bartender was just a sweatheart!
  
  The place has interesting decor and the this was also another place with only just the one bathroom. Other than that, this would mostly likely be a place I'd hang out all the time if I lived in this area, and I would definitely enjoy the atmosphere if I were to frequent here. They have some video lottery but  you wouldn't know it unless you went behind the barriers they have up. Thats kind of nice, I hate seeing those machines! A must stop in if you are in the area!

  Tried Sammies out for the first time yesterday. Great little place for a bite to eat and cheap drinks. I ordered the Fried Chicken meal. It was huge!! I brought  1/2 of it home. (It was a bit too much of fried food for me.)
  Bartender made me some strong sweet fruity drinks for $3 a piece. Can't gripe about that one bit!!
  I found this place to be spotlessly clean and trendy in decor. The lottery machines are against the wall but they have these oriental like partitions up to give the area privacy. I bet a Wii bowling league would work well here with the set-up and TVs that they have. :)

  I have to agree with Kelly F. What's not to like here? Their food ingredients are good quality, unlike many pub-grub places. They offer a Halibut Fish & Chip basket for $9.95! (In most places, what you get for that is Codfish.) Their domestic drafts are 2 bucks all day and all night. $3 well drinks (Including Jack Daniels). Both server/bartenders I met (Dave and Jack) are friendly and courteous. I like it!

  I have to totally disagree with the first reviewer!  Went to Sammies yesterday, and found it to be totally perfect.  The decor is sleek, modern, leather, tasteful.  The bathroom is CLEAN!  with hooks for your purse, so you don't have to set it on the floor, or worse yet, hold it in your teeth.  Lottery machines lined up, with cool 'room dividers' to somewhat keep them private.  I give Sammies a big thumbs up!  Yay!

  I was very happy to learn a bar was opening up across the street from my apartment at the time.  Oh happy day now i don't need to be responsible with my drinking because i can walk there!  Not so much.
  
  My upstairs roommate at the time told me of the bar.  Apparently he went in and ordered a beer only to have to pulled straight into his glass, not at an angle.  The owners gave him free drinks to show them how to pour a beer.  Yup.  The inside is slightly more interesting than the inside of a cardboard box.  A cardboard box doesn't have keno and lottery machines otherwise, the same.  On the upside it is cheap.  Don't expect to meet anyone of interest.  Go here to drown your sorrows on a budget only.
