    Some of the most fun I've had in a long time. Kinda trashy, but it is 6th street. Great DJ and cheap drinks.

    Flaunt thy heavy purse not, for upon the fifth day five coin will bid thee libations of many whilst melodies of European EDM sound craftsmen render conversation a chore.

    This bar is a labyrinth of rooms. Once you've walked in, continue to the back back room, but wait! Before you hit the back bar, take a left and go dance your face off!

    Lively is a tame word for this spot on the weekends, but the beer is cheap.

    Cheap bottom shelf liquor will make you make poor decisions. But you'll have a story to tell.
