Gold Room

Description:

• A classic drinking establishment, this place has got some serious whiskers and a unique vibe. On better nights, you will be served by two motherly buxom waitresses, who look like they could just be visiting from the islands, slinging drinks with precision under the watchful eye of a Latino manager, who is a distinguished old-timer sporting a handlebar mustache and a three-piece golden watch chain. The clientèle is likewise gem-studded with a few singular characters. In keeping with the general quirkiness, the ceilings are adorned with the subtly flickering scene of a starry sky. Drink prices are startlingly low. Complimentary peanuts are dispensed generously. On a few nights, Gold Room shows its appreciation to perpetually thirsty customers by serving them free tacos fresh from the kitchen. - Kate Sobol
