This one would be the kind of place you go to get drunk. The booze is top-quality, although it's sometimes wise not to ask where it comes from; the bartender knows what you like, and a glance is all you have to do to order; the prices are reasonable; and you always meet the same few whackheads, whom you enjoy and find very funny. You could even consider them your friends, if you had ever seen them sober.
