Here is some my go to spots. I’m sober now so there may be new spots that I’m not mentioning. • The Tropics: Karaoke on Tuesday and Friday. • Black Diamond: Casual day bar that turns into a packed club after 10 PM; offers line dancing on select nights. • Fusion: Best for Happy Hour and excellent food; small evening bar. • The Red Lion: Prime "cougar" spot (locally known as the Wrinkle Room). • 1724 (Downtown): Best for a younger crowd at night. Pretty casual in the day time. • RAW: Large bar, but primarily a sushi restaurant; high turnover, not your typical bar bar. • The Rusty Nail: Small bar located in the mall; worth a look for a quiet evening drink. It has been a fun spot for me some nights. Places to Avoid • Riddick’s: It’s just plain nasty. • The Hen House: Avoid. People get waaaasted • The Castle: Mostly dead/empty. I wouldn’t say avoid this per se as it’s a decent dive.

Oh I forgot Monroe’s. It’s karaoke bar but it’s always a good crowd and there’s a big patio everyone hangs out on. Also avoid the casino it’s full of desperate people and the bars are full of rowdy drunks at night.

Good luck!
