I have always enjoyed this bar, but the reason it gets perfect in my book is that its close to home, has a great jukebox, and plenty of seating.
If I had to pick a downside to it, it's their selection of beer and the music is a bit loud at times. But, my top 3 reasons trump that, and I enjoy the dark, smoky atmosphere and the general lack of pretentiousness.
Also, they do serve your standard fried food until approximately 9 or 10...I never can remember...maybe it's later.
