I've been wanting to come here for a while but after I got in, I didn't care too much for it. Crowd wasn't all that exciting and the drinks were overpriced.

Since I've been cooking at home a lot, I'm going to draw on my back catalogue of dining out experiences. I've been to National Mechanics a few times, and there is one specific reason that keeps me coming back: The lunch special featuring $5 burgers and decent pitchers, with Yard's and PBC represented. National Mechanics is a totally weird place. It's some kind of historic building (it looks like a bank from the outside) that has been converted into a great looking bar. It has a nice hardwood bar and a decent amount of high-top tables and booths. As far as service goes, don't expect much. My favorite detail about National Mechanics is there pint glasses featuring local celebs like Rocky, John Street, Cole Hamels, and the likes. There is a better than average beer selection, but it's overpriced. Your best bet is to still with the local brews, and last time I went the PBC and Yards were both kicked; no replacements on the horizon. Like I said, don't expect much from the service. The burger is very good, and at $5, it becomes excellent. It even comes with fries! This place is sweet. There's a veggie burger available at the same price for all of the non-meat eaters. Bottom Line: This place is great for lunch. I never have been, and probably never will go to this in the evening, partly because of much better options. The beer selection and availability of pitchers is nice, especially for Olde City. There are probably a whole load of people who love this place because it's exactly their kind of "thing." I'm not one of those people.

My favorite music house of all time. A week after arriving in CA ten years ago I was bummed. I couldnt eat the food (too different), I couldn't meet anybody (too shy, way too countrified accent) and I couldnt get around (too new in too big a city). Then my boss drops a ticket to see Doc Watson at the GAMH. HOT DAMN! My life was changed, I could take a guy off the "Meet or at Least See Live at Least Once Before They or You Die List" and all was well. Doc told dirty jokes and picked some and then we went home. Not me and Doc, the audience as a whole. That's gross.... Turns out life in the big city isnt always so bad.
