If artsy urban bars make your skin crawl, this hideaway pub might be more on the level.

Neighborhood Feel
A few blocks removed from the hustle of Orange Avenue, Pine Street Bar & Grill is a downtown watering hole with a neighborhood feel that also functions as a pool hall, hang-out joint and restaurant. A typical night finds jocks, regulars and guys attired in white dress shirts (or T-shirts) milling about the two-room space.

Amenities
The main bar is host to video games, TV sets, a single pool table, electronic darts and a few assorted booths. Pictures of fish and beer items on the walls inject this place with a high level of testosterone, though the many females in attendance keep the balance in check. Beer, wine and liquor is available at the bar; two additional pool tables and more booths and tables are available in the back room.

On the Level
Pine Street is the perfect destination if you want to go out but don't want to deal with the downtown crowds, traffic, etc. that exist just a few blocks away. And if artsy urban bars make your skin crawl, this might be more on the level.
