Happy Day Tavern is situated on the corner of Elston and Pulaski. Based on looking at its website…read moreand its location only a few blocks from our homestead, my lovely wife and I decided to give them a try even though it was a frigid Saturday evening. We walked in and noticed that the crowd was nonexistent, even though there was a football playoff broadcast on all of its screens. There was the bartender and one other fellow, who might have been the manager or just a pal of the bartender. My love and I each chose a Revolution draft beer, and were a bit taken back that the total tab was a shade over $20 for our two beers. Frankly with the lack of ambience at this neighborhood dive bar attempting to be a sports bar or a hip downtown-ish establishment, it was a bit uncomfortable sitting at the bar. Needless to say, we did not stick around to experience the Saturday "DJ Night" as touted on its website.

We were sat at the open window into the brewery, which was really cool to see. If you are a beer person- you will be in your element. I myself am a wine girl- and they had me covered too. I actually had a delicious cider that they had through their partnership with Eris brewery. The server knew his stuff. And the food- just trust me- everything was top notch!! Something for everyone, seriously!

My complaint was the waiter didn't allow my friend to order for me. We had limited time and it would've helped to be able to order ahead since I was already parking.

A bar within a bar inception…read more Nightshade is the basement bar of Moonflower. We came to the opening weekend to check out the vibe. There was a healthy amount of folks coming through, but not too crowded. It's dark, closed off with a smaller bar and also additional washrooms below. Vibe is sparse - at the moment, it's simple with the centerpiece of the red glowing bar, side bench seating, a few lamps off to the side, painted in a dark green/black floor to ceiling color. I think the reason to have this secondary space is the potential to do more fun, experimental drinks. Though space is cozier, it's nice to see seating was designed to accommodate groups too. I think it would have been easy to talk to other table groups if the music was just a tad softer. Son of a Gun - it's a tortilla chip in drink form. It's savory with a hint of cilantro. Sneaking Suspicion - nice apparent flavor of chamomile balanced out with a slight, creamy sweet flavor of yogurt. If you're into exploring unusual flavors and forms, Nightshade is a place to check out, and of course Moonflower offers another menu so you can do 2 in 1. Kitchen closes at 10pm.

Good if looking for any cheap beer or basic liquors. The bar has a few TVs for watching games or whatever. A few good cheap drinks. It had $3.50 PBR on draft the last time here. There's not much of a draft selection. A lot more is available in bottles and cans. There's a few local crafts along with the big corporate ones. Just not a whole lot to be honest. The liquor selection isn't that good either but at least it has pretty good prices. Basic dive bar. It's nothing at all fancy. They also may have pizza but it's probably best not to get any though.

The pizza was excellent, very flavorful, great tasting sauce, and the crust was perfectly made. We also had an order of wings, generous portion, with just the right amount of heat.
