This is an easy-going restaurant and bar that loves a good rock show. While the menu, beginning with lunch, doesn?t stray too far from the normal pub-grub choices (e.g., fish and chips, burgers, gigantic stuffed jalapeños), a po-boy and a pulled pork sandwich are also available. Customers can enjoy three-dollar drink specials or beer-and-a-shot pairings. Don?t be surprised if owner Josh Florence is the bartender serving it to you. Arriving before 10 p.m. is your best chance of snagging a table to take in the tunes of a long roster of bands on a Friday night. Thanks in part to the amiable staff, its well-worn wood décor and a kickin? soundtrack, this joint oozes a neighborly vibe.

  • 2010 | Best Two-Fisted Drinking

    Look, we know how silly we look holding a can of Pabst Blue Ribbon. It's cheap, flavorless, crappy American lager that has inexplicably become the drink of choice for hipsters trying to affect some kind of facetious blue-collar aesthetic. But... More >

  • 2010 | Best Downtown Hang-Out

    As Downtown Dallas creeps closer and closer to regaining its status as a top entertainment destination among the city's many, many options, the neighborhood is facing some roadblocks. There are just too many carbon-copy ultra lounge... More >

  • 2009 | Best Spot to Meet the Fledgling Community in Downtown

    City Tavern is the Cheers of downtown. Everybody knows your name. That's because most patrons are downtown residents, especially on any given weekday. As the downtown population has grown from 200 to 6,000 residents in the last 15 years, the... More >

  • 2004 | Best Billiards

    If you're like us--and we hope you're not, because a trip to rehab is in your immediate future--the perfect game of pool happens between two events: the fifth bourbon-and-whatever of the night and the first broken glass. The former causes the... More >

  • 2003 | Best Chicago-Style Bar

    The Dallas Morning News recently mentioned that it visited this downtown establishment and was dismayed by the fact it wasn't jam-packed with patrons. They point out that they showed up at 6 p.m. Now, far be it from us to call the folks at the... More >

    Really nice place. Lots of indie kids hanging around. They have some pretty decent shows come through too.

    This bar reminds me of Chicago with the dark wood and vertical layout. Has some of the best bar food you'll find in Downtown Dallas, and their music line-ups are always killer.
