Underrated bars in BR...name them

you already did

Cedarcrest Lounge
The Vineyard
The Jefferson

That’s unfortunate.

Vineyard is closed because the mom destroyed the place.

Where did you get this fake news from?

For starters, the mom hasnt run that place in several years. Secondly, I went there a couple weeks ago for a few beers. (Edit: a couple months ago)

I never understand where people get their “facts” from....

Wait what? A friend of mine (well her sister is my friend) owns it.

yeah it’s the old owners daughter. Natasha. She turned the place into a good neighborhood bar.

Big Heads was also a cool little neighborhood bar that the flood destroyed.

If this was the place down millerville, yeah it was a great place. It’s been 4-5 years since I went there, but I think this was the name IIRC.

Their whole family are just really nice people. Her dad (the old owner) also owned that Tiger something convenience store on Lee that’s now Brothers. He may even still own the building.

I think that’s one of many things he owned around town.

The son was running for state rep or something like that during the last election.

The other daughter (my friend) was on the news recently for how she had a job doing basic admin work at Gordon law firm and decided randomly to go to law school and just recently passed the bar.

Turning out 3 genuinely nice kids who are successful like that says a lot about someone.

To stay on topic - I agree Smiling Dog is underrated. People on my side of town never venture to that side of town to drink, which is probably why I never hear anyone talk about it. It’s a pretty nice place though.

I can’t agree with Patio. Being a dive doesn’t make something underrated IMO. It’s adequately rated to me, which is: loved by the regulars, unknown by everyone else. It’s not a bar I’d define as some great time people are missing out on, but rather something that is a good time for its patrons because it’s their bar.

I get it - Port Royal was that for me when I went. But I definitely wouldn’t be telling random people they’re missing out by not going to Port.

They’ve been down for renovations since 11/3

renovations doesn’t equal the place being closed down because of an owner from 4+ years ago. Dont call me a douche bag because you said something false and got called out on it.

I didn’t say something false at all little guy, they are closed. When they reopen, they’ll re-open.

But white knight all you like

And you’re a douchebag
