Smeads Tavern

We live near Smeads so when they first opened we were excited to try them out. At first they were good. Typical bar food, etc.

Then we just started coming for taco Tuesday because we knew at least those were good. Hubby drinks beer so that's not an issue but I like mixed drinks and wine. Never could count on my margarita being made the same way. Even by the same person. Now I order a Paloma or wine.

We are here to watch the Rose bowl. It's freezing cold in here (I heard someone else complain about it as well). One bartender and the cook didn't get in til 3:30. Sent my nachos back once because they were cold.

It's not even a comfortable environment to come to for drinks and a game because of the freezing temps indoors. Sticking to taco Tuesday only from now on.

I must say that the new ownership has Smeads looking really good.  The old Smeads used to be pretty run down and with some seedy folks.  Now it is really nice, I almost didn't believe I was in Smeads when I walked in the door.  They have a pretty good selection of brews and a nice pool table.  And everyone I have talked to says "The bathrooms are really nice."  Which ain't no joke.
