RKO video opened on New Years Day and they are still filling the shelves. They offer DVDs, comic books, music lessons and more. Located in the mid 1600 block of E Passyunk Ave.

The interior shot is of the Black & Brew. This my favorite spot for a quick breakfast or lunch. Food is good, fast and inexpensive. They have been open for some time now but I thought I would shill for them. Located at 1523 E Passyunk, near the fountain.

For the blue collar folks who like a shot and a beer after work, Oregon Ave., East Side style.

#1 Fireseide Tavern. Marshall and Oregon.

No happy hour specials, but, a great barmaid, Cindy, Wed. Thur. and every other Friday, and every Sunday for you real Alcoholics, daytime hours. 7-5 (Yeah, 7 am)

$3.50 (any) bombs (you can't find that anywhere in the city)

$2.75 bottles or pints (no craft or wierdo hipster brews, sorry, stay away) and $2.00 pints and bottles ANY sporting event.

A great neighborhood crowd where everyone gets along, remember, this is between 6th and 7th, aka badlands, but not this far South, this is Oregon Ave., we all get along, seriously.

#2 Nickles Tavern. 2/Oregon

Same as Fireside without the cheap bombs, still a great bar.

#3 AnneMarie's. 7/Oregon

Same as the first two, again, w/out the bombs.

#4 Cookies. 10/Oregon.

Same as the top three, again, w/out the bombs, BUT, if you like to drink early hours, I'm talking night shift crew from the food center, or if you wake up w/ the shakes, you can come here at 5:30 AM and hang w/ John the bartender and watch him get mad and yell at the news, good times, w/ out fail.

Oregon Ave. Rules.

**cRaB8y** · 08-06-2009, 08:47 PM

Lower Moyamensing Civic Association

Broad to 8th, Snyder to Oregon.
