SwervinTaters Bar Review #6: Brit's Pub


SwervinTaters: Doesn't care for the British, willing to drink they drank...

Heelllloooo, Twin Cities! Sorry it's been a minute since we did the old bar review. If you couldn't tell, Swervin is a busy, busy, suspicious man and tends to disappear for extended periods of time.

Fortunately for everybody involved, we caught up with him on the rooftop patio of Brit's Pub the other day.


If you're unfamiliar with Brit's, it's a downtown bar that, if you can believe it, is British-themed. You can always judge books by their covers. Located at 10th & Nicollet, it features two levels (actually three if you count their up-upstairs lounge, and a rooftop patio that overlooks 10th Ave & the Souteastern skyline.


They have a nice selection of beers, both English & local. They also have drinks that are, “dark, go in your belly, make ya warm,” which is always a nice combination. Also, they have a happy hour that runs from 4:30 to 6:30 and Midnight to 2:00 AM Sunday through Thursday.



Anyway, Ol' Swervin had a thing or two to say about Brit's. Check it: (do yourself a favor and bump the quality up to 360p. This camera's shit)


Damn! 4 Swerves for Brit's Pub! Let's check the big board and see where that leaves us:

CC Club: 4 Swerves
Brit's Pub: 4 Swerves
Loring Kitchen & Bar: 3.5 Swerves
Liquor Lyle's: 2 Swerves
Mortimer's: 2 Swerves

Tied for first place! You limey bastards!

SwervinTaters Bar Review #4: Loring Kitchen & Bar

Hey America!

Handsome Uncle Swervin is back from… well… we’re not sure where, but he’s back and he’s still on his bar review grind.

This week he spent the afternoon in the heart of the city at Loring Kitchen & Bar. And, contrary to whatever Jay-Z thinks, he found plenty of love. Have a look:



Blaow! 3 and a half Swerves for the LKB! Let’s check the big board:

 1st Place: CC Club - 4 Swerves

2nd Place (Tie): Pat’s Tap - 3.5 Swerves

2nd Place (Tie): Loring Kitchen & Bar - 3.5 Swerves

4th Place: Liquor Lyle’s: 2 Swerves

There you have it, kiddies. Play nice.

SwervinTaters Bar Review #3: CC Club

Hey Amerrica! SwervinTaters is back and he celebrated President’s Day by going to the most presidential bar he knows: The CC Club. Have a look at his thoughts on this iconic Uptown spot:



What CAN you say about the CC Club? It’s a bar or an establishment… Whatever you wanna call it. Swervin calls it four out of five! The CC Club is the, er… clubhouse leader. Here’s the standings so far.

CC Club: 4 Swerves

Pat’s Tap: 3.5 Swerves

Liquor Lyle’s: 2 Swerves

For more info on the CC Club, you’ll just have to go there, because they don’t have a website.

As always, you can find more of SwervinTaters’ insight on life, whoredom, drinking, Minnesota sports, whores, life, & drinking by following him on Twitter (@SwervinTaters)

Sammy Sosa, baby!

SwervinTaters Bar Review #2: Liquor Lyle's

Hey everybody!

That good looking man-about-town SwervinTaters stopped by Liquor Lyle’s this week for the Bar Review. A drunken time was had by all. Here’s what he thought of the bar:


Liquor Lyle’s: Don’t come here if you like yourself.

 Truer words were never spoken.

Thanks to Swervin for stopping by NI and sharing his opinion. If you’re not following him on Twitter (@SwervinTaters) you’re life is an unequivocal failure. Until next week…
