Hey, AlabamAlum!
My wife and I are taking our son to Tuscaloosa Sunday night for a tour Monday morning. Where should we go to get some food and a drink or two?I feel like I am watching the destruction of our democracy while my neighbors and friends cheer it on

5 Bar or the Avenue Pub (good pub food-can do a nice meal there- well crafted cocktails):
Hip restaurant with antique decor known for their five item menus featuring quality American cuisine, beer, wine & a full bar.
College bars: Houndstooth, Gallette’s, Egan’s:
If you know of Tuscaloosa, you know someone whose got a story or two that took place in this one & only Locale. You can drive around the strip looking for a big flashy neon sign saying “ Gallette’s” you’ll be hard pressed to find it. This hole in the wall is hidden to outsiders […]
Nice upscale meal out, R. Davidson’s Chophouse (steak) or Chuck’s (fish). Both probably need reservations. I would have said Evangeline's, but they’re closed Sun/Mon.

Ribs: Archibald’s or Dreamland. Both are kinda dives, but fairly famous. Keith Jackson and Frank Broyle’s used to take part of every game broadcast from Tuscaloosa and talk about Dreamland.
Probably Dreamland. Weather will be bad. Archibald’s only has outdoor seating."The problem with quotes on the Internet is that it is sometimes hard to verify their authenticity." -Abraham Lincoln

CG, if there is something specific that I didn’t list, let me know. Also, I assume you have a hotel. I like the Embassy Suites.

And the Embassy Suites is value added with the free booze/snacks in the evening at manager’s reception and the free breakfast in the morning. Not sure how Covid has affected both of those things, though."The problem with quotes on the Internet is that it is sometimes hard to verify their authenticity." -Abraham Lincoln
