Jay’s is a great find—an unpretentious dive that we hope will never change. Next door to a used-car dealership, the gray clapboard building could be mistaken for a rundown house. Regulars—from leather-clad bikers to after-work softball teams—come for the cheap beer and friendly staff. Weekdays 4 to 7, Jay’s serves $8 pitchers, $2 drafts, and $2.50 bottles (all domestic). There’s a long bar, a pool table, and six TVs that are almost always tuned to sports. The front patio fills up in warm weather.
