Defunct bars: Civic Pub, Scarlett O'Hara's, Bourbon St.
Dive bars: The Federal, Old Town in Wethersfield, Maple Tree in Simsbury

Any dive bar list must include the Spigot.

I’d go back there if @August_West played. He’s probably too good for that though.

They book bands?

Whats the guarantee?

Ill play your Mom's basement if you meet my quote. Im not fussy about rooms. Just money.

Nothing comes close to the new Bobby V’s in Stamford. Second I would say Hanging Hills.

your joking right?

 

[Letsgohuskies11]

There are a ton of good bars in Stamford that are all fun to go to! Hudsons, Brickhouse, Bar BQ, etc.

another, are you serious? Bar BQ is gone, seemed like a bro fest and fun if you are like 22

I'm not too good with all the names lol, but I always have a good time when I go out in Stamford.

Haven't been up in years, but I used to really like going to Sliders for wings/pitchers. Primarily in Plainville, but been to the others as well and always enjoyed them. Assuming if their wings are like other places, the prices have probably been jacked up quite a bit though.

 

[AAC Guru]

your joking right?

No

 

[Letsgohuskies11]

No

Maybe I'm just too nostalgic for the old one but they cut about 3/4s of the old menu, some of the old good options are gone. There are way too many TVs with different sports going on to concentrate. Took about half an hour for the waitress to come around. I do like the draft list. The virtual golf in the corner is nice. the place just feels like buffalo wild wings though. There's no more charm to the place. Although that seems to be the overall theme of Stamford replacing everything with luxury apartment complexes .

Mom hates loud music.

 

[Letsgohuskies11]

I'm a sucker for Willy Brew when i'm up in that area.

I can’t believe I already got banned from the leach field

 

[WallStreetHusky]

Best dive bars must include The Bach Dor in Chaplin. Used to go every Thursday for nickel night. Anything in the place for five cents. We would get our load on and then dance with the biker "babes". Honorable mention to the Spigot in WH.

La Boca is a great time, gets crazy in there.


Bring your GF again, shes fun. I like her a lot. So does my wife.

are you serious?

You were TRYING to get it. I was amazed you lasted as long as you did. The guidelines were laid out right from the get go.

When I got to UConn in 2010, Ted's still had an inch of muck on the floor. Even thinking about that place makes me want to go shower.

You youngsters never had the pleasure of Rapp's. Now that was a dump. If the bathroom wasn't under an inch of water you wondered what was wrong, It was a two-holer, the toilet and the sink. Then again, 99-cent pitchers.
