Love Friday Night Work Release Party here. For $4 Sump'n Doo plays great music, dinner is included and the crowd is fun and very diverse. Love it when they play Marvin Gay!
- Tuesday night trivia is the best trivia night in town. Don't forget to stay and sing karaoke.
- Jessica HemannOctober 14, 2011The women's room decor is pretty amazing as well. I often laugh out loud when I'm in there. BEST wall graffiti EVER!!
Juice MagazineMay 16, 2012You expect great music at The Gas Lamp, but a side benefit is great sandwiches as well. Try Fatty's Italian Beef. Read more
When the show's too loud, go play some pool or pinball in the side room. They have Rolling Stones and Playboy Pinball machines.- Juice MagazineApril 20, 2012
Order from the waitresses. They're friendly and faster than the bar.
I arrive on its first anniversary of the gas lamp and the bands playing freebird. lol
Stop stealing pool balls you fist pumping hipsters.
