Loafers Bar

Loafers Bar delivers that perfect neighborhood hangout energy with a patio that feels like your friend's backyard—if your friend had better taste in beer. The extensive brew selection ranges from local IPAs to obscure Belgian imports that'll impress even your most pretentious beer-snob buddy. While the cocktails and wine won't win awards, they'll certainly get the job done.

The patio buzzes during happy hour when locals descend for affordable drinks and impromptu cornhole tournaments. Live music on weekends transforms the space from casual watering hole to mini music venue, though you might need to arrive early to snag a seat when bands play.

No kitchen here, but the BYOF (bring your own food) policy means you can pair that craft beer with takeout from any nearby spot—a freedom that feels downright revolutionary after a long workday. Just be prepared to make friends; the communal tables and game areas practically guarantee you'll leave knowing someone's life story, favorite team, or hot take on the local music scene.
