Dan's Cafe Bar & Pub ·$

The atmosphere at Dan's Cafe is all about fun. This place is a hot spot for college crowds, owing to its quirky ambiance and reasonably priced alcohol. The establishment features a television hanging from the ceiling and a long bar that keeps the place hopping. Another cool and interesting feature is that you get to mix your drinks and create some interesting cocktails. Order a hard liquor that is sold in individual mini-bottles. Or you can also order a soft beverage of choice and voila, you are the bartender for the night.

If i could rate zero stars I would. The bouncer and bartender are disgusting and disrespectful. I used to come here with my friend to pregame we became friendly with the employees. The place is...

So here's my confusion: if you're going to drink in a dive bar, the benefit is that it is usually cheap. We came in for shots and spent $35 on 4 of those little nips bottles of alcohol. I'd also...
