This soccer-crazed tavern is a no-frills neighborhood spot in DC’s U Street area. On weeknights you’ll find a small set of regulars—which usually includes a crowd of bicycle couriers—but on weekends the place is wall-to-wall twentysomethings. Don’t be put off by the tight squeeze downstairs; upstairs, there’s double the floor space plus tables, TVs, and a small stage for open-mike night on Tuesdays. The drink du jour is Pabst Blue Ribbon; cans are $3. During happy hour (Monday through Friday 4 to 8), Budweiser, Miller Lite, and rail drinks are also $3; Sierra Nevada and Jack Daniels drinks are $5.
