Loosey's Pub

Loosey's Pub

5 thumbs up

120 SW 1st Avenue: Downtown

I've been meaning to review Loosey's for some time now.  Not only have they managed to carve out their own unique niche in the over-saturated beer bar scene that has become downtown, but they've developed an excellent menu of high quality and beautifully presented pub food.  Unfortunately, my iPhone just died, so I can't share any photos here, but I'll do my best to describe their fare.

First of all, let me cover their beer selection.  They have a very respectable selection of bottled and draft beers with many monthly rotations coming in and out.  They feature only American beers, so if you want a Guinness, you're at the wrong place.  One of my particular favorites is the Blue Point Toasted Lager.

Next, let me be clear that if you're downtown and want a burger, you should go to Loosey's.  They easily have the best burger around and sell it as cheap as 5 bucks on some nights.  For a half pounder, you might even want to share it with someone.  Also, the number of toppings and condiments you can add are astounding!

I've also tried their blackened chicken tacos, which at $7.50 could easily feed two, and the fish and chips, which are great as well.

Loosey's also hosts live music many nights a week and have developed a solid reputation for treating bands really well.

You might not think of the Pub as a legitimate restaurant, but I can assure you it is.  When The Top has an hour wait and you're just dyin for a bite and a brew, get your ass too Loosey's, which is usually busy, but never so packed you can't get service right away.
