I have to review this place just because there’s another review out there that’s super old. Ok, one of my bandmates has been asking our group to check this place out for a possible gig. She mentioned«funky old place, funky old lady» so we went to check it out on a Wednesday night around 7:30pm. What an interesting joint. First let me say… there’s no food so yes, the name is rather misleading. The location is in a residential area of Manchester. From the outside it’s mysterious. It looks like the kind of place you’ll walk into and EVERYONE will turn around to see who you are. That might have happened last night but when we got there, but Sissy the lady who runs the joint, and our friend, were the only two peeps in there. We were there for over an hour and no one else came in. At all. Weird. So, Sissy is a pistol, for sure. She’ll tell you her opinions on things like the Fire Marshall, taxes and how things have changed over the years. I was surprised at how tidy the place was. I was expecting some seriously dusty bottles in there but it was pretty clean as far as bars go. The carpet was vacuumed and there is a large screen tv(which she will ask, «what do you want to watch»). She didn’t have any taps to be seen and the beer selection was as follows: Bud, Bud Light, Miller Light, Heineken. There might have been one more in that list that I’m forgetting. Beers were $ 3.00. $ 3.00! Ok, now to the cool part. Sissy is up for booking a band in there so I was curious to see what was beyond the 4 walls of the tiny bar area and boy was I surprised. WHAT A COOOOOOL place! First off, there’s a theater above the bar, with a ticket booth, stage, funky chandeliers and more. You could definitely have a little wedding in there, or bingo or something like that. Also, there’s a little part of the place under the bar called PUB. Also, super cool. There’s a second bar down there, booths, a fireplace, a potbelly stove and tons of character. There’s a pristine wooden phone booth down there too, with an olde timey phone. I believe this is where the«steakhouse» once was because there’s a giant kitchen down in the pub too.(she even showed me the HUGE dumb waiter that still works). Kelly’s is definitely interesting and I was happy to give Sissy a $ 20 for three beers and a ginger ale. This place is an odd little gem, just like Sissy.

Where do I begin about this place… First its a bar, but last time I was in there the one old lady who works there was handing out ash trays to costumers, even though thats been illegal for about 5 years Also don’t let the name fool you, there is NOFOOD served at this place. The closest thing you have to it is over priced chips. Oh and the old lady there is extremely rude too. Stay far away!!!
