On
occasion, 3030 feels like a house party for hipsters. There is the
boisterous mixed gender group playing pinball. The weird, slightly
greasy, loaner hipster reading a philosophy text. The ageing couple
speculating and gestating wildly about the nature of art. And us.
Drinking beer and making up gossip about the hipsters that surround
us.
The
real reason to visit 3030 is the beer. The bar has taps with beer
ranging from Flying Monkey, Junction Conductor, Church Key, and Iron
Spike. If you cannot make a decision (which is a problem we
frequently have at 3030) the bartender is happy to offer advice. Real
advice from an actual beer drinking bartender! The only real negative
is that the bar does not have stools but the back bar is at the
perfect height for leaning. I appreciate places that think about how
customers will interact with and in the physical space of a
restaurant or bar.
The
hipster house party vibe made me feel uncomfortable and out of place,
so I would recommend avoiding 3030 at peak bar times. This is no real
hardship for almost every bar is better at 2pm on a Tuesday afternoon
than at 11pm on a Friday night.
