    Always loved the ironic name of this place - if you're not at the bar, then you're pressed against the wall. But welcoming it is with cheap drinks and chill crowds.

    Happy hour deals are great. Stay near the front or risk the funky smell at the back.

    $2.50 drinks on Thursday until 8pm. A few of us working in the area stop by every week and call it the Double Fist Thursdays. Good. Fucking. Times.

    Very packed. House beer was cheap but not very good. Get here early, it's a small bar and fills up.

    It's slightly bigger than a condo, the drinks are cheap and the music is awesome.
