It has the usual sports bar fare, plus some mexican items, and decent red beans & rice. Happy hour 11a - 7p, a buck off any of 70 draft beers.
That sounds like the Big River Brewery - corner of Broadway and 2nd Ave South. Or at least it was last time I was there a year ago. Good place and a great selection of beers - their "Thick Brick" is/was a favourite of mine.

Nice to read about some updates to stuff I already knew. I'm saving my pennies for my next visit, I hope in Spring '09.
