If you don’t mind getting some dirt under your nails, head to Brathaus – a bar that accentuates a vintage and relaxed feeling. The old frontier style bar has scuffed red cement floors, torn bar cushions, vintage looking lanterns and solid wood booths.
This 21 and up bar is the self-entitled home of the legal joint – a mixture of liquor and orange juice.
“It’s like drunkenness in a cup,” frequent visitor Derek Miller said.
Besides the legal joint, Brathaus features a popular shot called The Stoplight. This three shot trio consists of a melon ball, a lemon drop and a kamikaze.
Weekend drink specials include 1.50 domestic drafts, 2.50 fruit bombs and 1.75 Miller bottles.
After you stop at the bar for some drinks from the grumpy doorman, JD, who has worked at Brathaus for over twenty years, head to the back of the bar for some games. Brathaus has pool tables, a punching machine and a hoop shooter.
If you’re not up for games, just look around the place for entertainment. The walls are covered with collectables – several signed hockey photos, specifically to JD and Bowling Green, a number of old school athlete photos or a dirty mirror behind the bar covered with customer photos
