Drink 2010

You could feed a Third World country on one order of Reel 'M Inn's fried chicken and jojos. This isn't the type of bar you come to when you're feeling peckish—it's the place you go after a long workday when you forgot to eat and don't feel like grabbing another meal for a week. It's $7.75 for three giant, piping-hot pieces of fried fowl and four jojos which are, no shit, actually half a potato, deep-fried on the spot and ready to burn the roof of your mouth. The bar also doesn't disappoint, with plenty of stiff $4 wells (served in 16-ounce glasses) and tacky paraphernalia like a stuffed marlin and fox above the bar.
What to drink: A pitcher of PBR while you wait for your chicken order.
Happy hour: Food specials Sunday-Thursday daily.
Entertainment: Internet jukebox, pool, Big Buck Safari, sports on TV.
