Have you ever thought about the criteria for a good happy hour? I mean some things are obvious, such as cheap drinks, but what about other factors? What about bartender swag, atmosphere, and bar food?
Here we'll review Prost, an unlikely hotspot, which has the potential to do work.
Let's knock this one outta the park.
CHEAP DRINKS
You want em, they got em. Prost is like the foreign exchange student staying in downtown LR. Prost's siblings are Willy D's and Deep, you could say those bars are more like the generic fucked up reason the Taliban hates America. That being said, Prost has a great drink selection. Their bar has tons of liquor and they've got at least 10 beers on tap. So about this happy hour, you'll find $2 wells and $1 off pints. That should get you laid fellas, Palmela Handerson that is.
BARTENDER SWAG
Friday the wolves found two ladies behind the bar. Usually you can fund a bald dude named Thomas but today it was babes. I didn't catch their names but I did catch quick drinks. I didn't hear any jokes but they were attentive and let us enjoy ourselves. I guess I didn't hear any jokes because women aren't funny.
ATMOSPHERE
Prost is in an ideal location Downtown, the problem is that there's a lot of competition to keep it from really catching on. It's connected to Deep and Willy D's so there's a perceived stigma. When you walk in Prost for a happy hour, you'll find it very quiet. There's only a handful of patrons and NO music is playing. It kind of bummed me out. I had to actually interact with strangers for entertainment. Even SportsCenter was on mute. Decor is cool enough as there's rad art on the walls and ceiling. This COULD be a swag place.
BARFOOD
If you say it fast it sounds like barf food. Smart. I used yo associate Prost with brats and that's about it but they are trying to change heir image. While we were bellied up for the duration of happy hour, the barkeep announced that they are changing their menu and would be offering our team complimentary menu items.
Hoof ordered fish and noodles. I tried it and it reminded me of a microwave dinner and a stick of butter. James had a burger and he said it was pretty legit. Lastly, Watson got wings. He said they were good, but there's better in LR. I know this is a shitty food review but I'm shitty.
What it boils down to, Prost has some work to do if they plan on playing in the food game but they are doing the booze game right. Team, do work.
Have a great place we should visit? Let us know, offer to buy us a drink, and we can probably make it happen.
You're opinion is probably wrong but leave a comment anyway.
