This is one of those magical Longmont places. It's been here as long as I have, but I rarely meet anyone that's actually been there. Why is that???
People have to go, or it wouldn't be open. Where are the other Bit o' People?
Anywho...I recruited Debita to join me at the Bit to see if I could relive my sub experience from years ago.
Way back when, the Bit was my standard option for non-pizza delivery food.
I remember liking the wings and pepperoni subs because they had such an absurd amount of pepperoni and provolone on them.
We were in for a late lunch and I'm pretty sure were the only female customers there at the time.
There were some fellas playing pool and, likely, regulars around the bar chit chatting about the High Park fire. It seems like I was there ages ago, but the fire had just started and all were wondering about the wisdom of those who choose to ignore evacuation orders.
As one might expect, there's loads of pool tables. There are dart boards, a DJ booth, and my favorite lottery scratch ticket machine...I bought a $1 ticket that won me $8. My best luck so far.
George, who I believe is the owner, was our host and was a chipper fella with a happy smile.
I got the pepperoni sub with provolone, and Debita tried the mushroom burger. I got a "large" rootbeer, which I can't believe I drank all of. When they say large they mean bladder busting. I DO love rootbeer.
There was quite a mound of lettuce on top of my sub, but it had some kind of Italian dressing on it. I sorta ate it as a salad before I got to my sammich. It was just too much to stuff in my face if I didn't eat off the top first! The sandwich was just as yummy as I hoped and Debita demolished her burger. I don't do mushrooms but it looked tasty otherwise. Her fries were awesome.
I wanted to try their fried pickles but I knew I'd be too full. I will absolutely be getting those next time.
They also offer breakfast all day! Can't wait to try that! Happy Hour is M-F 4-6, and Sat. & 8-10.
The prices are very reasonable and it has a little something for everyone. I can't speak on the pool part of the place but I wish I could go a little more often and become one of the regulars talking about the news of the day and eating bar food.
It's not the most fancy place in town but it's got my kind of vibe. Laid back, good food, hanging out...that's all I need. I'm not a terribly fancy lady.
Check out their website to see their specials, events, and menu!
I was pleasantly surprised by the fact that they had Wifi. How else could we have looked up some pointless bit of information about a topic I no longer remember?? Yay!

It also had an interesting smell. I think it's called "Eau d' Poolbar". A classic!
ReplyDeleteThat's exactly what it is. lol That smell makes me feel like I belong. Who knows why...
