Nice little hole in the wall bar with decent food and good drinks. Friendly staff.
Chill folks, good bar food, good times!
Howie's is your typical neighborhood bar. It's definitely got a dive feel to it. The beer and food prices are super cheap and they even do a happy hour, so the cheap just gets cheaper. Keep an eye out for the daily food specials. I highly recommend the pickle pizza or the bacon pizza, the crust is fluffy and the pizzas are the perfect size to share. If you're looking for light snacks, try their onion rings. You'll get a massive portion and probably won't be able to eat them all.
The main reason to come to Howie's is for Howie himself. He's a lovely man who genuinely cares about his customers and his employees. He's not afraid to cuss people out during trivia night but underneath that gruff exterior is a marshmallow. The only downside to Howie's is the parking. It just doesn't really exist. You can park on the side street off of Veranda or go all the way to the end of the side street and park in a dirt lot. If Howie's is bumping, the parking spaces are at a premium.
Friendly, with no interest in trying to be something is not. Great place
Greatest pub I've ever been to!
If you aren't a trivia buff, I would recommend avoiding Tuesday nights. Howie's trivia starts at 6:30 and usually runs for 2 hours. It can get very competitive and depending on the week, the place will be packed with extra folding tables set up in the walkways.
