Best Darn Bar In The Burgh

Not only is it cheap but it's full of people just there to drink and hang out. No pretense is right.
The bartenders are great and attentive. The music is usually good even if it's not your bag. The beer selection is out of this world. And everyone is pretty friendly.
- Pros: Cheap. Unpretentious
- Cons: It's in polish hill
