1. Sherwood Lounge

Great location on a major street. Local bands usually play on the weekends. There's darts and pool tables as well. Only food is Heggie's pizza. Drinks are tall and cheap! Like many establishments on the Eastside of Saint Paul, cash only! Luckily there's an ATM machine available.

A large establishment for a dive bar. Tall and cheap drinks. Greasy and unhealthy eats. A blast for St Patrick's Day...if you get there early enough. Usually a band plays on the weekends with a dance floor available.

An amazing music venue with up close views of the stage. Enjoy the scenery upstairs where the bands play, or go downstairs for some Clown Lounge entertainment. Yes, the Clown Lounge has numerous clowns about. Food is salty and yummy. Beer selection is spectacular with local and craft beer options.

Honestly, this place has delicious food. I've never been disappointed. Great patio when in season. At times, a small band, but there's not a lot of space. The crowd can be interesting with a mix of bikers, white trash, and every kind of group known to the Cities. A great people watching place, but watch out for the drunks.
