The Barrel is about as tasteful as the name implies. While often smelling like a stale keg this valley watering hole offers up quality dive bar fare meaning no pretensions, cheap no-frills drinks, pool, darts, a decent jukebox and even a shuffleboard table in the corner. It’s the perfect place for competitive male-bonding over a pint ‘o beer.

Jukebox: about as much variety as MTV
Crowd: feels like a hang out
Bartenders: friendly enough
on tap: full liquor, and yes that’s Newcastle on tap
Your wallet: not bad for the Bush economy
