Tips

What does Tips Bar, the Roundup and the Riverside Restaurant have in common?  They are all in Red Bluff and so was the Stalker Club of Redding (S.C.O.R.)
We first hit Tips bar where we met Mike the owner and bartender.  He welcomed us with a smile and a handshake.  a very comfortable establishment with a pool table, shuffle board, and darts.  You will get a good feeling when you belly up to the bar.  Prices are fair and Tips is a great place to stop and have a drink.  We give 3 beers out of a six pack.

My favorite bar in town.  It's dark and dingy, it's small and the pool table is awkwardly placed.  But the juke box is always rockin', the shuffleboard is always sanded and the staff is always friendly.  You always swear as a kid you'll never end up in Tips because it looks scary and seedy from the outside.  Then you grow up, grow a pair and realize it's the best bar in town because it has personality and history and there's a reason everyone loves it.  Only down side for me is no beer on tap.  It's all bottles and cans.  But it's not a bad selection and  they're the only place I know of around here that serves my favorite whiskey (Tullamore Dew - drink it!).  I love Tips as do most people once they actually hang out there.

Oh Tips. My childhood friend got it just right when she told me that it is the bar in RB where everyone swears they will never go. But then, one day, they wander in and actually like it.

 I had a good time here, catching up with old friends and drinking incredibly cheap beer. Man I love cheap beer.

 It is not quite as scary as I imagined it as a child. I would go back, but then again I would probably meet my childhood bffs anywhere they wanted me to.
