we went to the Isanti street dance saturday night to see lamont Cranston, got talked into going to the Cambridge bar and grill, what a fun place! of course I have a feeling the locals will be lookin' at me funny next time we go there :wink:
You just reminded me of a place where the drinks are always good too. :eek:
Like the name says, there's nowhere to sit. But at the end of the night, you'll be lucky to stand.
The Scene
Remember that scene in "It's a Wonderful Life" where barkeep Sheldon Leonard dresses down Jimmy Stewart and his guardian angel, claiming his establishment to be a place where men come to drink and get drunk and they don't need any characters around to give the place atmosphere? Well, this venerable off-Broadway hang doesn't mind a few characters, but quaffing stiff drinks is definitely the reason to come here. The strongest drinks in town? Could be.
Inside Track
Don't bother playing bumper pool or even think about buying one of the dusty T-shirts. Just belly up to the bar, order a double and pray to the alcohol gods for high tolerance.
The Crowd
While still a fave with many a Near North Minneapolis resident, Frank's has been attracting a much younger crowd in recent years. After all, nothing goes together like going to college and getting blotto.
yeah they did renovate a few years ago, so it's pretty nice now, It even has a little patio out back. I haven't been there in a couple of years. I used to frequent it more when I worked afternoon shift. It's hangout place for lowertown residents and workers. If you watch carfully you'll see a steady pilgrimage of postal workers going back and forth on their "breaks". :wink:
It's not so much stressful as it is mundane and monotonous. The funny thing is they make you take an entrance exam to get in. So they have a relatively large percentage of really intelligent people (except management of course) who work there doing really boring jobs. The bucks and benefits are great....that is what keeps us there. What's great is that you don't bring your work home with you. Hell I hardly think of my work when I'm there. That's why I can spend hours noodling clues at work. I can practically do my job asleep. :asleep:
That's what it is. I have all access at my work. Sometimes I wish I didn't. Lots of pop ups that surprise me. That's probably why THX didn't see it either. Those who do see it will comment on it. Believe me. :lipsealed: :eek: :confused: :worried:
looks like a gas station ...but its a bar
rowdy biker Kararokie
Yeah, you should be used to that by now.
:smile:
I gotta learn how to do that someday.
That's what my Mom says.
sucks...I never get a deal...

sportys...my favorite bar...
Some people don't like dive bars......those people suck anyway!
Bladder Buster!
Progressive Pints!!
The price goes up a quarter whenever someones pees!
With how huge my bladder is I would never 'piss' anyone off.
Mel's Midtowner- River Falls, WI FYI...there are 47 dead things on the walls. (last time I was there)
Kelly"s Depot Bar- Kellogg Blvd. Get the Burger Buddies Basket. Lots of smart asses there.
I wouldn't call that a DIVE....anyplace that has Guinness on tap is not a dive.

What? :asleep: :confused: :eek: :ooh:
Somebody say something? :smile:
I didn't know what you were referring to at first until I looked at my post again and wondered why I was always yelling at myself.
Funny :smile:
THX got served! :eyeroll: :lipsealed:
