Jackie, Rick mentioned Grevey’s in Falls Church (703-560-8530) in our Super Bowl drink specials roundup. This sports bar is having outdoor grilling as well as $2 Miller and Bud lights. Pitchers of these same products are $10. There will also be a $5 buffet of barbecue ribs, hot dogs, etc. Definitely worth a shot!
