Last Chance to Pullman Bar Hop!

With finals just around the corner there is very limited weekdays/nights (depending on your preference) to unwind and let loose this semester. Here are some great bars around downtown Pullman that are close enough to walk or to enjoy a cheap taxi ride!



My Office: 215 S. Grand Ave., Pullman 
Looking for a laid back, low key bar with dangerously strong and unique drinks the bar My Office is a great way to let loose and go a little wild. Happy hour is from 3-6PM daily and has excellent drink and meal specials you wont want to miss. 

Old Post Office: 245 SE Paradise St., Pullman 
For a classier night out on the town then the usual bump and grind that dance bars offer, The Old Post Office has a wide selection of beer and wine is a gorgeous place for you and your date to enjoy a nice drink after a long day of studying. 


Rico's: 200 E. Main St., Pullman
If you are interested in studying while enjoying a nice adult beverage Rico's provides the perfect setting for you. Rico's offers a great selection of drinks and local jazz music while surrounded by the atmosphere brought by being surrounded by books. 

The Sport's Page: 165 N. Grand Ave., Pullman
With the basketball season around, The Sport's Page is the ideal place to kick back and watch the game while you order pitcher upon pitchers of beer and order off their large bar food menu. And YES there are plenty of TVs to watch your favorite games on. 

These are just a few of my personal favorites although there are many more bars especially in the Moscow Idaho area. Grab your friends and arrange for a designated driver and get ready for a rockin good time

Wing Wednesday in Pullman

With only three weeks left in the semester it is time for studying and cramming for papers, quizzes and exams but everyone needs to have a place to go and blow off some steam. Wednesdays are the new Fridays and are a great way to be able to celebrate the middle of the week!

Where can I go for Wing Wednesdays?

There are two main options for getting your Wing fix. You can either choose Valhalla which has recently been remodeled into the ultimate hangout place complete with flat screens filling all the walls upstairs to watch all your favorite sports and shows.  Valhalla sells two flavors of wings on Wednesdays, one flavor is the famous spicy flavor which gets the line wrapped around the bar. Stubblefields is the other bar you can choose from which is the classic dance spot bar on campus where you usually can find the bar wall to wall packed on any given day. Stubblefields has a variety of wings to choose from and a couple different flavors but I highly recommend their famous remix flavor.

What kind of deals are available on Wing Wednesday?

Valhalla sells 12 wings for $3.00 and dipping sauce is available for only $0.50 a cup. There specials are usually Jack Daniels singles for $3.00 and doubles for $6.00 but of course there is Hammas bucket for only $4.00!
Stubblefields sells 7 wings for $3.00 and dipping sauce is free for one. Stubblefields mixes up their specials daily and has a variety of five different drinks at special discount price so you never know what to expect and there is always a variety.

Choose your bar, grab some friends, and devour your own bucket of wings and release some of the weekday stressors tonight!

La Casa Lopez: Authentic Mexican Food

Looking for fabulous, authentic Mexican food but don't want to travel far from campus? Look no further because La Casa Lopez in Moscow, ID is sure to provide you with the type of food you're searching for. From fajitas to enchiladas to fish tacos, there is something on the menu for everyone.

What Kind of Service Can I Expect?
La Casa Lopez employees pride themselves on being friendly and helpful to every guest. The servers start every table with chips and salsa (of course), but the real treat is their exceptional black bean dip. There is usually more than enough but extra salsa and bean dip only cost 99 cents more if you're really hungry!

What Do I Order and What are the Prices?
The menu at Casa is very similar to a lot of other Mexican restaurants; however, the quality is a lot better. For appetizers they have items such as quesadillas, nachos, wings and guacamole dip. The prices on the appetizer menu range from $4.25 to $10.99. Almost all of the combinations and entrees come with rice and beans so there is more than enough food, even if you want to share!

Do They Have Any Specialties on Food or Drinks?
I don't know about you guys, but when I go to a Mexican restaurant I have to get a good drink to go with it. While their margaritas, pina colodas and daiquiris (all only $5.25) are absolutely delicious, my personal favorite is the Mexican Volcano. It is a mix of vodka, rum and gin blended with strawberry and pina colada with a float of Bacardi 151. How could you not love that? Another thing I love about Casa is that they almost always have a tasty food specialty every night and six different vegetarian options on their menu (each for about $11.00).

So all in all, how much will I be spending?
If you plan on ordering a drink, appetizer and entree, you can expect your bill to be about $25, which is very reasonable for that much food! But if you plan to share with a date or a friend, add one more drink to that and you each only have to pay about $15. That's a steal!

Located only 14 minutes from campus, La Casa Lopez is at 415 S. Main St. in Moscow. So come with a group of friends for a birthday party (hat and free shot included) or just for a quiet date. La Casa will NOT disappoint!
