Local Watering Holes
Years ago I wrote an article here that I called Dive Bar Tour. I was always concerned that some of the fine establishments mentioned might be offended that I called them a “dive bar,” even though thousands of people read that post. Well here’s the 2020 version and I feel much better about referring to all of them as “watering holes.”
These are the kind of places you go on a Friday afternoon to grab a pitcher or two, with your coworkers. This is where you meet the locals. Some of these places also happen to have amazing food, some don’t…
