  Oh Union Street. I don't know how to rate you. So I copped out and chose 3 stars.
  
  If you are the type of person that enjoys an atmosphere of a dirty bar where even dive bar people wouldn't go, then this is a great place to be. It's a place that the locals of Holbrook go to without cars so that they can get wrecked and then walk home. The best way to explain this place is to allow me to give you a full review of the night here.
  
  For my birthday my friends and I got dressed up and rode around in a limo to shady bars. A new bar every 20 minutes. Enough time to down one beer, leave tip, and take off. This was our first choice since it was down the street from my house and I had never been.
  
  On entering, the 6 blacked out people looked up at me and got excited by the classy dressed girls and such I was feeding to them. The bar tender was a 40 something year old woman with a smokers gruff voice who asked what the occasion was. I replied it was my birthday. She replied with a hacking cough laugh "haha*hack**cough*haha, why the hell would you come here for your birthday" I told her I've been meaning to visit this fine establishment.
  
  Anyway she gave me a free shot with my beer and said she usually only does that for the ....regulars on their birthdays but it's fine.
  
  One of the older ladies at the bar who was clearly drunk came over to me, grabbed my shoulders, gave me a hug and started rocking back and forth singing happy birthday slowly and seductively.
  
  Her husband then came over and said he would be right back, he has a present for me. He left the bar and drove off, I thought he was going to retrieve a gun. He came back and gave me two tshirts (apparently he owns a tshirt company) Pics of said shirts are included in this review under the picture section. I have a video of the happy birthday song too but unfortunately can't upload that to yelp.
  
  By this time our 20 minutes were up we all were finished our beers and we hopped in our sleek limo and took off.
  
  Pro's:
  Drinks are ridiculous cheap obviously.
  Bartender and patrons EXTREMELY nice.
  Free clothes.
  Free shots.
  Easy married women if you are dressed in a suit. Even if husband is present.
  
  Con's:
  Don't go alone if you are a young girl dressed to the 9's.
  Don't go to the bathroom here.
  Bartender even wonders why you're there. (that bout wraps up cons.)
