Bartender's choice: "If y'all are coming in here, you better be ready to dance," announced a 60-something gentleman less than five minutes after we entered.The good vibe at this expansive, rustic, deep-NoPo institution is overwhelming. Drinks are cheap—a good beer and a well whiskey runs $6—and the service is friendly: The bartender waived the $10 minimum on credit-card charges without a blink. Kenton Club's about the folks—from blue-collar neighborhood folks, urban cowboys and college kids to hipsters and old-timers (in the most literal sense). Everyone's there, and everyone's glad to have you there with them. OPEN MIC, LIVE MUSIC, HAPPY HOUR, FOOD/DRINK SPECIALS, GAMES, VIDEO POKER. (MB)
