Chuck's

Grimy, crowded, sweaty, and loud … what is it about Chuck’s that keeps students coming back for more? It might be the cheap Friday night pitchers. It could be the opportunity to write your name in Sharpie on every surface in sight. Or, maybe, it’s just that Cheers-esqe feeling of togetherness you get after a night of drinking with your closest pals. And here, almost everybody does know your name.

When to Go: The ideal time to snag some booze is on Friday nights when pitchers are just $3.50. Plan to get to the bar around 10:30 p.m. or 11:00 p.m. – early enough to grab a booth and late enough to have a good crowd. Be aware, if it’s a game day get there extra early or risk wading through frat boys 7-thick, just to get to the bar. The bottom line: Any day, any time you will find people in Chuck’s — come on this is college, people.
