Wood: Knox bars quench thirst for videogames
Thursday, July 2, 2009My generation is never going to grow up. As we reach our 20s and 30s, we're still obsessed with videogames. And it isn't necessarily new videogames. We enjoy Nintendo and Super Nintendo games as we did the first time we played.

Reed: Chez Guevara is a house of nightlife treasures
Wednesday, June 24, 2009As a non-native to Knoxville, I often find myself completely unfamiliar with many of the most cherished restaurants and bars throughout the city. I am still surprised at how many places I have not heard of - and get ridiculed for it - after living here for five years.

Reed: Get your kicks at Brixx
Wednesday, June 17, 2009I heard of a new pizzeria and bar opening somewhere within the confines of the ever-growing shopping mecca and decided to check it out. After driving back and forth through Turkey Creek, I finally noticed that a place called Brixx had opened where the Atlanta Bread Company had once called home. With a location finally known, I decided to head down and check it out the following night. Full story »

Wood: Relax! Wholesome fun resides at the Pearl
Thursday, June 11, 2009As a veteran of the Knoxville nightlife scene (and former nightlife columnist) I'm always looking for a new nightlife approach. Sometimes, drinking just doesn't do it for me. Yet I don't want to stay in. In other words, I've been looking for somewhere to go relax. On Jackson Avenue between the Pilot Light and Barley's, the Pearl resembles a bizarre fusion of a coffee shop, a children's nursery and a hippie co-op with a '70s vibe. Full story »
Reed: Wild Wing Cafe is a cool spot for the summer
Wednesday, June 10, 2009As I've said before, the West Knoxville bar scene has become unfamiliar to me. I often find myself struggling to find a new bar I have yet to visit in the area. So I decided to revisit a place I thoroughly enjoyed almost a year and a half ago: WIld Wing Cafe.

Top hats are optional in the Old City 'man-adise' that is the Knoxville Cigar Co.
Thursday, June 4, 2009The Old City is home to more bars than I can ever keep up with. In truth, it doesn’t surprise me anymore when someone brings up a bar I haven’t managed to visit, often due to my complete oversight. This instance occurred again when I finally realized that the Knoxville Cigar Company was not only an upscale smoke shop, but a pretty classy bar as well. Full story »
Bad service offsets great setting, specials at the Hill
Wednesday, May 27, 2009New bars are exciting to me. It isn’t so much that I’m excited to find out what specials they have or what beer they might have on tap, but how well the bar attempts to stand out above multitudes of other bars throughout Knoxville. You might be able to imagine how excited I became when I heard a new bar had opened up just a few blocks down from where I live in the Fort Sanders neighborhood. Full story »

Tuesday, May 19, 2009Monday nights are usually pretty boring by nightlife standards, especially during the summer. Thankfully, The Square Room has started the Monday Mustache Mash-up, a brave, new kind of happy hour to lure the crowds out for a cheap, fun Monday evening. Full story »
