    Billed as a modern-day juke joint, Friendly Tap doesn't disappoint.

    It's a short walk down Roosevelt Road to FitzGerald's. And if you're hungry the Buona Beef next door is the original family-owned location.

    Open mic on Wednesdays. The region's friendliest bartender Ron McEachen tends the bar on Saturday nights.

    They should bust out a wall and move in the bar. It was crowded.
