Extra Innings

This place was sooooo durty. Bathrooms we gross and it was only a Tuesday night at 8 o’clock. Had one beer. And played some pool. Pool table look as if it need a vacuum to it. And the service sucked. Trying to pay tab the bartender said she’ll get me then the next thing I new she was taking shots with looked like friends then as we stared her down til she finally let me pay. Never again. Will come here

Cool little dive bar for drinks and darts. That’s about it. Pool table is not level and it’s really dark in there.
They are open late though which is always a plus! Bartenders and management have always been very nice. A few TVs will always have sports on.
They don’t have any food which is a bummer, although I’m not sure I would want what they’re serving…
It’s a legit watering hole, that just happens to be in a strip mall next to a giant Target.

I am a fan of dive bars and this one is solid. Cheap drinks, free popcorn, and you can even order pizza from next door. The bartender’s are all very nice as well. But, the best part is that it is walking distance to my house, haha.

Nice staff. Super cheep drinks.
Cool dark/​dive interior. Not dirty or grimy at all.
7 TVs and maybe 30 seats.
Great for watching sports (no figure?!)

Wanting to try a new place for Sunday football where I can watch my 49ers and Nate can watch his Bears, we decided to pull up the Unilocal app and see what was close by that we can try. This little gem popped up and I can’t believe we haven’t been here yet.
We walked in and there was a full bar. We sat at one of the tables nearby where we could both see our games. The bartender came over and we decided on a pitcher. (Domestics $ 6.50 and Micros $ 11)
There isn’t food here but people were ordering in from surrounding restaurants so that is an option.
The service was friendly and we will probably be back one of these days.

This place sucks. The Asian man that owns it is always there and I’ve witnessed him start conflict with customers. Myself and a few others left after witnessing this. He also changes paid music on the jukebox. After a dozen times, never any ladies and asian owner is always there instigating. Popcorn is gross and there are places close by much more hospitable

No way, people haven’t reviewed this place? Say WAT?!
Oh never mind, I kinda like it that way. Keeps all the hipsters out. I couldn’t abide if they decided that this is a «Totes über cool out of the way place that serves PBR.»
Yeah, they do have PBR for those of you that want it. More importantly though they have some Colorado beers around, with the always ever present New Belgium, to Oscar Blues and a few other larger brands. You probably won’t find some of the teeny tiny ones in here, but there’s more than enough to wet your whistle. They also have a goodly selection of liquor. Enough that if you aren’t sure what to have you will have some selection. Prices are reasonable, and a little lower than you probably expect. Not the cheapest in town, but a small cut above.
The location is great. I say this because every time I’ve ever come across a bar in a strip mall, it’s always going to attract the best of crowds. The people that are here are your local drinkers. No trendsetters, no uppity types, no people that you always hate hanging around. Everyone, is just… well…NORMAL. Which is so nice sometimes.
The staff are always really friendly, and after only two visits were able to remember my face. I seem to see all the same people here, and even if they don’t know you, a friendly nod and hello is more than likely on its way to you. People here don’t mind budging up to allow you access to the bar, and more than likely will chat you up whil you’re there rather than give you a sullen look and moving a fraction of an inch to allow you in like some places.
Bonus, if you come in during the day you’ll find all the older crowd cracking bawdy jokes with the local barfly that has been around 20 years and listening to her sass them back. The TVs are strategically placed so you won’t miss the game no matter where you stand in the bar.
All in all a good place hidden away in this little area of Hamden I call home that continues to impress me with their little local haunts!

I think it’s crazy I’m only the second person to review this place! Maybe everyone who goes there sits down to do this and they’re like «why write a review about Extra Innings when I can just go to Extra Innings?» Genius!
I like this place because it’s a great neighborhood dive-​ish bar; within stumbling distance of my place, the bartenders are really nice and the drinks are super cheap. I really like this place because they always have the best games on, the other customers there are always friendly and someone always buys us shots. If I’m allowed back in next time I go there (did I mention the free shots?) I hope to see more of you there.

Great barstaff… good prices… can’t go wrong…

Trivia night on Tuesday is fun. Starts at 8pm. Not very High-​Tech. But it’s good if you like trivia.
Bartenders are super nice as well.
