Floyd's Pub

This is a nice little corner bar. I know one of the managers so I have been attending it whenever I can. I like how Floyd's is presented its dark and looks like a dive bar in its intended apperance but, the food is amazing and the beers range from a 2$ PBR to a 12$ imperial porter. The music is usually classic rock with some Al Green in there so I obviously like what they play. The food I ate there was a grilled cheese and cheese fries, both of which were amazing especially the fries. The grilled cheese was a double decker and actually had one layer of cream cheese. The sandwich also come with some veggies and ranch, the only reason I mention that is because there dip is made at there bar from scratch along with all there other sauces and dips. The cheese fries are what really caught me off guard because of how good they were. I'm not saying they are the best I have ever had, that title is held by Mustard's Last Stand, but its not really a comparable product because there cheese is smooth and almost like nacho cheese at a ball game but, not exactly. They also add their own spices to the cheese which gives it a nice ting. I also ate the mahi tuna sandwich a different time I was there, and this was a nice relief from tuna sandwiches I have had at other places in the past, which for the most part have been horrible. The Tuna was not dry it was not over spiced and sauced and it had been cooked very well. The price isn't to outrageous for food maybe a dollar or two more than normal bar food, but you do get more than you can eat. I saw the cheeseburger and it would more than fill any appetite and also one thing that looked amazing was the steak salad which I think had a full giant steak dinner that smelled amazing on top of some lettuce. That might be what I get next time. Beers are priced accordingly from like I said 2$ to 12$ bud, bud light at I think 3.50$. Over all I really enjoy this bar and will go back I need to see it on the weekend though.
I have been severely slacking lately so I am going to try something in the next couple of weeks, I am going to try and critic bars in my neighborhood on a daily schedule. I feel since I have been to a few and probably to many this would be the best way to get me back into writing, also some of the bars in the neighborhood might not be around for very long considering the amazingly fast pace that buildings are being bought sold torn down and rebuilt, so hopefully I will be able to keep up.
