For such an amazing building and layout, this place is really below average. It's mostly treated as a ""reunion"" spot, so if you're out of town, don't expect to meet anybody friendly. It does have everything (pool, local brews, food, live music, DJ, darts), but again, the locals have those parts owned. In the late 90's, they used to keep a huge line waiting outside, in order to increase a false sense of popularity, but now they have trouble getting people in there. Good for the occasional country night, though. they also have a halfway decent restaurant below the bar, fairly romantic (in a Lowell kind of way).
Pros: Lots of Space, Lots of Options, Decent beer list
Cons: Unfriendly patrons, Boring, Bad live music
