The Bad Old Days is a small, neighborhood bar catering to the local's late night appetite for food, and delectable libations. Some would call us a cocktail bar, but we are hesitant to embrace such a title as we seek to provide our patrons with a warm, down to earth atmosphere that is typically associated with dive bars. Come for the wings, stay for the company.
