    In a ~fancy~ place like Princeton, a no-frills dive bar is much appreciated, and Ivy Inn delivers. The patio is a great place to be on a warm evening, though it can get crowded later in the night.

    Newly opened kitchen with damn good food make this place a welcome (and needed) workday lunch spot.

    Come for trivia on Tuesday's, sit in the back patio, play some corn hole and enjoy a chicken cyp from George's next door (they let you bring food in)...complimentary popcorn as well!

    Cheap beer, karaoke, and full of townies. Bring in food from George's or Old World Pizza next door and reminisce about all the times you used your fake ID here during winter break in college.

    The DJ isn't even worth the $3 cover on Friday night. Lots of smoking outside and gets packed after 11

    The bartenders, the company, the karaoke. Good people make for good times.

    Not a very good version of a dive bar. However, I did see a really tight Led Zeppelin cover band once that rocked pretty hard (but annoyed the hell out of everyone I was with). I hope they come back.

    Come early on Wednesday or Thursday if you want to actually sing during karaoke night.

    If you're a penny short for cover they won't let you in. Even if it's empty. Even if you came there to buy drinks.

    DON'T make fun of the weird picture of the guy behind the bar. Turns out he's the founder, he's dead, and related to some of the bartenders. :(
