I love a good pint down at the pub. Nothing goes down smoother than a cold Newcastle in a crowded bar with the best chicken fingers on the planet or an actually tasty British burger or fish and chips. I'm more of a pub person than a club person. I'd rather be tucked away talking to friends at a dark table in a cheap cafe or anywhere that serves cold beer not over $3.50. So it's no surprise that the Vegas Crown & Anchor is one of my favorite places to be. I'll tell you right now, it's nothing special. In fact it's such a small place, often crowded, stinking of cigarette smoke and parking's a bitch on Friday nights, but it's my home away from home and reminds me of my college days drinking at trashy places like Sarah's or Gulod (believe me, you'd be appalled if you've never been there). It's no Lotus Club, but the bathrooms are clean, the beer is cheap, there are graveyard specials on food after 11PM and I love it and miss it with great pangs of nostalgia.
