was a lot bigger, so when that's the toughest decision of the night, it's not so shabby a night.  The drinks are pretty good - I'm a mango fan, and they had mango margaritas (ok) and mango mojitos...

$8 for a Cape Codder...no way dude.  On a Friday night, this place was pretty lame.  The pool tables are falling apart and crappy music was being played.  The decor is pretty nice, but that's pretty...
