Cheers to You

Cheers takes enormous and well-deserved pride in its solidified status as a neighborhood bar -- the epitome of urban cool with a classic dive vibe. Across the sizable counter, bartenders and patrons hold conversations that occasionally drown out the plentiful TVs and jukebox jams. The place is long, narrow and packed to the walls on weekends—just try squeezing in on Karaoke Fridays. Outsiders can walk into the pub and easily find themselves pulled into the camaraderie. Pitchers of beer and classic cocktails are the most frequently ordered drinks, and the food menu includes French dip sandwiches and meatball subs; also available are items from Robin's Nest and Eva's wood-fired pizzas). Rely on Cheers for free pool on Thursdays, acclaimed karaoke on Fridays and an always inviting, unpretentious air.
