Bar Crawl
(page 1 of 2)
From dives to clubs to pubs, here are my top ten bars in the state, in no particular order.
1. The Scorpion Bar, Foxwoods. The Scorpion Bar has go-go dancers, Gothic-style decor and live entertainment/DJs, not to mention top-of-the-line tequila. At only a year old, it has quickly cemented itself as one of the best bars in the state, and definitely one of my favorites.
2. Rookies Sports Bar & Grille, Cromwell. Rookies is the ultimate sports bar. With 70 TVs, you can catch virtually any game while you throw back a few beers. And you've gotta try their buffalo wings --they're some of the best I've ever had.
3. La Boca, Middletown. By day this is an excellent Mexican restaurant; by night, a fiesta! The drink specials can't be beat, with $2.75 drafts for "Pour Man's Monday" and two-for-one well drinks and $5 margaritas for "Ladies Night" on Saturday.
4. Lenny's Cafe, Wallingford. A true dive bar, Lenny's is frequented by regulars and has a nostalgic feel, with walls lined with interesting sports and pop-culture memorabilia from years past. Anytime I visit, I feel right at home.
5. Archie Moore's, Wallingford. Yes, the wings are famous and well worth a visit, but the bar is great too. They've been around since 1898, so it's safe to say they know what they're doing. I love the Wallingford location because it looks out on the center of town and makes for great people-watching.
