    Every night is Name Night where people with a chosen name receive free drinks. There’s even a calendar on their website with the upcoming names. The drinks are good and inexpensive.

    This place is great, the bartenders are always nice, etc. My only problem is that I'll never get a name night; I don't go there often enough and my name is far too unique. But great place regardless.

    As the bartender(s) about name night you can request to have a night where everyone with the same name as you drinks for free! Only catch is you gotta have friends with you.

    Loved this place. Relaxed with great music, try the new Monster and vodka cocktail, has an aftertaste like coffee, really good.

    Be sure to check the monthly Calendar Name List. If it's your name that night, you drink FREE.

    Chill afterwork spot to unwind with a brew, game of pool & some good tunes on the jukebox. Check to see if it's your "name night". If so, you drink for a few hours on the house! Love this place.

    The house vodka is pretty good, and all the cocktails come in pint glasses for around $8. Plenty of tables in back, good for after work groups.

    $6 pint glasses of mixed drinks or $6 drafts, $5 cans. This is the Name Night bar so try to go for that!

    Drinks are strong. Don't run a tab, however; they like to add drinks you never actually got.
