BJ’s Pub

Walking in, you could be assaulted with a stray beer pong ball as the crowd goes wild but it depends on what night you go. Thursdays and Fridays are typically these nights. Given this atmosphere, I tend to steer away from this place even though I live in the area. It seems to have dance club aspirations in a neighborhood bar location. Not a preferred combination by most but it could be your thing.
The beer selection is acceptable and the pizza is middle of the road. However, we witnessed a rare treat when the bar keep offered us pizza by the slice. That was pretty boss. This not an everyday occurrence but they made an exception because a few people made the request. Bravo for listening to your customers. Not many bars would do that.
If it wasn’t for the crowd at this place, I’d rate it higher. With a better atmosphere, this could be a good neighborhood bar.

If you enjoy cheap beer with belligerent, drunk 21 yo’s playing drinking games, this is your spot. Strange crowd but decent people watching. I’d rather get a 40oz of colt 45 and stand in the middle of bel air rd than sit at this bar.

I’ve only been here on Wed. nights. The bartender on Wed is pretty good. No one comes within 5 feet of the bar without their fav drink being thrust in their face. I think even newcomers get that treatment. The juke box is kinda cool (you can download songs into for a additional fee per song. The bar food is… well. it’s bar food but it’s mad cheap as well as all the drinks. The crowd is not the same you’ll find downtown but after a few you realize that drunks are pretty much the same everywhere even if they are a bit more on the Hill Billy side. ;-)
It’s worth a trip on occasion and if you live in the area it’s the best spot to hit.
