Ace Bar

Editorial Review

EV three-part bar's main draw is the Skee-Ball—something about beating a high score, getting a free drink. Two drawbacks: (1) it's a buck per game, (2) the crowds this place packs in can be, uh, intrusive (to be kind). A recently renovated front-end can't derail rep of extreme young'uns, but there're good times to be had nonetheless. Cheap-ish beers, decent happy hour, the otherwise bare-bones décor sprinkled with bits of pop trinket nostalgia from your childhood.
