Sure, I enjoy the cool bars where there are great micro brews, trendy mixed cocktails, high quality burgers and good looking female bartenders but lately I have been enjoying the mellow old man bars too.
Yes, the selection is pretty much Budweiser, Coors Light, maybe Colt 45 if I'm in the hood and Papst Blue Ribbon. If there is food, it's usually a pickled egg, maybe some stale pretzels, etc... There's usually no good looking girls, just old worn down women and maybe some fat old biker chick in her 50s or 60s. However, these bars seem to be the most enjoyable with the most home like vibe. The people who frequent these old man bars have been there for years and even decades. They are like family to each other in a way and the old bartenders know their customers very well. I may be a stranger when I stop by for a drink but they are so welcoming and show a type of warmth that I usually don't get at the more chic bars. Mind you, some of these old man bars are a bit too seedy and smelly in somewhat dangerous neighborhoods so I will avoid them but if you find a good old man bar, it can feel like home.
