Hair of the Dog English Sports Bar & Game Room
This sports bar is the granddaddy of them all. Since 1973, the Hair of the Dog has led the pack with 13 TV screens. There are 12 screens inside and one on the front patio to ensure you won't miss a play, from FIFA, the World Cup, and the NFL to golf, tennis, and more. There are also many other activities, such as six pool tables, three pinball machines, a photo booth, two dart boards, a jukebox, and a Pong game.
Every Hour is Happy Hour, pouring specials like $3 Rolling Rock and PBR beer all day and night. Belly up to the 32-foot-long bar or at a table and choose from 50-plus beers, including beer on tap, wines, a full bar, and specialty cocktails like its popular Bloody Mary. Unique to Hair of the Dog – the Brown Bag Special boasts $3 shots and $ 3 cocktails. The kicker is, you don't know what you're drinking until it's poured because the hard liquor bottle is in – you guessed it – a brown bag.
