A Dublin pub that’s 200 years old. It bills itself as “where James Joyce first met Nora Barnacle [his future wife and inspiration for Molly Bloom in Ulysses] in 1904”. The food and drink are good too.

A just-off-campus bar at the University of Wisconsin-Madison in the 1980s, owned and run by one of the local TV stations’ sportscasters. If you went to UW-Madison in that era, you likely owned one or more glass beer mugs with the Nitty Gritty logo on it, which you received (along with free beer) if you went there on your birthday.

A very good, young, modern bar I patronized once or twice in Toronto on the ground floor of a tall new condo building near the Northwest corner of Yonge and Finch in 2011. I asked them if it was named after a Serbian word for “tower” and was told it was named after the Persian word for “orange.”

What’s The Name of This Place?

A dive bar that I used to frequent and throw darts for in La Crosse WI, which seemed to change names or owners every two or three years. Back in the late 1980s, the newest owner was asked by one of the regulars, “OK, so what’s the name of this place gonna be now?”, and the new owner said, “That sounds good to me…”. Not there any longer, as it fell victim to a fire of undisclosed origin a couple of owners later.
