Default Boozy in Spring Garden

Since I'm bored and have no work today I decided to make a map of where to get boozy in the area of Spring Garden. If I left anything out, lemme know and I'll add it. Enjoy!

Here's the link to the actual google map with the bar names and cross streets:

Bars in Spring Garden Area


And here's a screen grab of the map for people that don't like to click on links:

I love the map R8CHEL! If this is the outcome, I'd wish more days where you have nothing to do at work.....

What about Bridgid's? (24th & I forget...)

couple of other corrections/additions, and one more piece of useful information -

Westys is at 15th.
McKennas/Jumbos is at 24th and Brown (not 25th)

May as well add the North Star (27th and Poplar) and ERA (28th and Poplar)

Parkway Lounge is now called Gallaghers

And, be advised, the J and J Trestle Inn is also a strip club. I learned the hard way.

i dont think you have to warn people that the trestle inn is also a strip club

i dont think anyone in their right mind would walk/drive by there and decide to stop in there for a drink

Heh, I kind of added J&J Trestle as a joke but *technically* it's a bar near our neighborhood.

OK, I made the requested changes to the map. Google maps is kind of addicting.

well, you put ERA at 28th and Brown when it's actually Poplar and while you added Jumbos to the Mckennas listing, you kept it on 25th, when it's 24th.

Also, noticed you have McCrossens on 19th when it's 20th.

And, although I love Siam Lotus is it really near Spring Garden. I mean there's plenty more to add if you want to go east of broad like that.

being picky, i know.

Yeah, you kind of are ...although I appreciate the input. I think I fixed all the mistakes.

I'm including places like Siam Lotus and The Institute because they're kind of in no-mans-land between Spring Garden and No. Libs. Besides, ERA, North Star, Aspen, etc aren't technically in Spring Garden (they're in Fairmount) but I include them because people that live in SP still go there because it's close by -- as is Siam Lotus.

EDIT: I can't believe I forgot the Rose Tattoo.
