Connie, the owner of Derry's Lounge, has been in the bar business for years, having previously owned Hickman Lounge, Jet Set and Connie's Lounge. Derry's has a large choice of wines and serves free "killer chili" during Monday Night Football. Catch a game on one of the five televisions or stop in for a game of pool. This casual lounge attracts an older, laid-back crowd by day and a younger, more lively clientele by night.

Places good for plain old drinking.
This is a list of some of the lesser known places to get a good drink fast and not mess around with 100 20-somethings who all want to mingle. Fast service, hard drinks, no BS. Enjoy.
