Independent

A bunch of pool tables, a full bar, dart boards, casino machines, and a juke box, ...what more could you ask for in a local bar. I love the name also, and the staff there is always very nice, laid back, and accomodating. The girls who I believe own it, are very friendly, and have helped me a lot with a couple of parties i hosted there. They have pretty good bar food, and will even cater your party with bite-sized sandwiches and what-not. It gets pretty packed on a weekend night after about 9 p.m., and parking in that shopping center could be a hassle, so I always recommend parking on a side residential street, like on 8th street or Virginia Ave. It's a really great locals spot, and in a good area, near piedmont park, the theater, and just upstairs from Apres Diem (another great spot) I will always recommend the Independent to anyone looking for a fun night.
