Drinks & Nightlife
Cool bar. Usually crowded but if you want to drink close to my house this is one of the closest places. Also, they have good bar food even though it's greasy and its a good place to watch sports.

This is definitely the closest bar to my house. If you want to see what the rockabilly scene is like, this is a good place to try. Also, drink prices are right on and the juke box is supreme.

If you need simple groceries, Randalls is the closest. Not my favorite place to shop but the prices are great. If they ask you if you have a Randalls card, type my phone# and you'll get a discount.
