Latest experience at Six Arms

The review of Six Arms is here.

This visit was to try the new happy hour. Noticed I didn't say improved. The new part is the $3.00 wells. So, I was all excited, a little buzz for a little money. I've learned over time to ask before you buy, if you want a happy hour price. So I ask what exactly is their $3 well. It's one shot mixed with one thing.

Ok, I say to myself, a lemon drop - that's flavor and a shot - I get a blatant "no", next I try a cape code - and the answer is yes, but since it has "juice" in it, that would be 75 cents extra. Huh. That's not a innocent, curious "huh", that's a what the heck you stupid people, what the heck is going on damn it kind of huh!

So, I say, what CAN I get (keeping other thoughts to myself) ? She says something like vodka and citrus tonic, she could have just said vodka tonic, talk about a tasteless drink. So, next time I'll stick to the $3 pint of Ruby, which is what I had second. My company had fun, although there was one berr that guest no.1 wasn't fond of at all - it looked like dirt, and from his expression (facial and audible) it must have tasted like it too.

I'll probably go back for a pint or two sometime, and the happy hour food is all $4, as you will soon see in my overall review.

I'd say a sub decent happy hour, compared to other Seattle locations.

Pig n whistle (Pig and Whistle)

I've been to this place a lot, not so much recently, but still, I'm kind of a veteran of this place.

First of all, $1.00 pool. There's two tables of average quality, coin operated. They can use a litte more room to actually play when the place gets busy, but I rarely have to ask someone to move.

The martinis and mixed drinks are about $6 each, and they could use a LITTLE more alcohol in the drinks, but the service is great, which is nice. The food is pretty decent, average price is around $7-$8.

The have a decent juke box selection. The best thing about this place is it's relaxed, and it almost feels like your in someone's living room/game room and there just happens to be a bar there. Want some cheap pool, a decent drink and good service? Well then pony up to the Pig 'n Whistle.

One more Six Arms post...TEQUILA!

The review of Six Arms is here.

Two of my anonymous coworkers and I went to a quick Friday happy hour. Little did I know what was in store for me.

It was a beautiful Summer afternoon, the way the sun reflected off the CRACK in the table was just magnificient. As I recall, it all started off innocently enough, with a little food, and conversation. Coworker 1 and Coworker2 had their beers and had mine. Pleasant buzz.

Then coworker1 ponders the tequila selection. Next thing ya know, shots are on him and they're ordered. A few "what have I got myself" intos and pleasant Summery thoughts later, the shots arrive and are promptly clinked together, SALUD, and down the hatch.

Then, buzz-ed even more and hiked up to get some pizza, quite good at Hot Mamas, I love that place. So go there, drink tequila, and you'll be happy as a claaaaaam.

Until my next blarring adventure, goodbye.
