So it's been nearly a month since our last post. Dang having real jobs and families we love and other responsibilities! (kidding)

Pub Review: The Chat Room Pub

Published by matt on Fri, 09/16/2011 - 17:10

The Chat Room Pub is a neighborhood watering hole on Magnolia Avenue in the Near Southside. For years it has been one of the few bars on Magnolia to grab a pint of beer. Although there are quite a few new beer destinations opening up on Magnolia in the coming months, we don't expect that to impact their patrons. That is because The Chat Room Pub has a monopoly on the hipster,dive-bar market in Fort Worth. Its location is perfect for local Faimount residents to walk or ride their street-bikes over to enjoy a pint after a delicious vegan meal across the street at Spiral Diner.

Pub Review: Wired Willy's Taphouse

Published by matt on Wed, 08/17/2011 - 00:03

Wired Willy's is a taphouse that recently set up shop between Poag Mahone's and 7th Haven. We noticed the sign earlier this week and thought it was an internet cafe, but to our great satisfaction we learned that it was actually a taphouse that featured Texas beers. The corner of 7th and Carrol St is now completely comprised of pubs and law offices.
