Everytime I go in the service is great and the food is excellent. The one thing I really like about this ... More
What a fun place! Probably the least expensive public bar in Ambridge. Friendly bartenders. The tap choices are minimal. Taps are the most common of brews, but very inexpensive. Strong drinks.

So I decided to give Zen another try after a bad bad bad experiece. The owner of Zen contacted me and so did the manager. They made it right with me which was VERY good! As a woman I never had a problem with dress code at a club. I guess the only thing I can say is that they have to be strict ... More
Machete! At long last, the parody movie clip from "Grindhouse" had come out on the big screen. I, like a lot of others, wanted to see that clip actually made into a movie, because it just looked like kick-ass fun. Long-time and familiar-faced extra Danny Trejo gets a starring role?

Lunchtime called me to the Fireside Inn in Crafton. And since a buddy of mine claimed that the food is pretty good I wanted to check it out.

I've been to Barley's & Hop's (sic) (see below) on two occasions, and I must say that both visits were during "daylight hours." The first time was for a late lunch, and the second time at the end of the work day. For a beer geek like myself any establishment with a bottle selection like this ... More
