Fenian’s Pub is always a crowd favorite in many categories, but it has the longest history with three titles in particular. The bar has won Best Place to Drink Cheap for the past four years, Best Service-Industry Hangout for the past two years, and Best Open-Mic Night for a whopping eight years running.
Fenian’s three titles this year often go hand in hand, as the bar is always open late and its long-running open-mic night provides something fun and free to do, whether you’re just coming to kick back or participate. The bar offers 32 varieties of Irish whiskeys, along with plenty of beer and signature cocktail options. Fenian’s kitchen also stays open until midnight Monday through Saturday and until 11 p.m. on Sundays, making it a go-to spot for folks who get off work late.
“People can come and always expect to have a good time,” Ryan Cassell, Fenian’s general manager and chef, says. “It’s a place where people from around town can hang out and enjoy, and we do a happy-hour discount for (service-industry workers) if they come in anytime after 10 p.m.” —ShaCamree Gowdy
