OPEN WEEKENDS: NEW IMPERIAL LOUNGE(new 2nd level lounge stocked with leather couches, flat screen tv's and a relaxing atmosphere...) + Fri-Sat (9pm-12am): $3 Jag Bombs, Domestic Bottles, $5 Vodka Redbulls, $6 40Fusion & $90 Bottle Service 10-12!

The Imperial room is always a good time. It is a Bar-Lounge that has a little something for everyone. They usually feature live music and an upscale setting. Getting a seat is usually pretty easy; its also especially nice because Imperial Room has lots of nice plush leather seats to lounge around it. They also have outdoor seating during the summer. Its just a few tables, but a great spot to hang for a night out and people watching.

The music is good, specials are frequent, and the help is dependable. Music is usually house or 80's played by local dj crews. The dancefloor is small, (and therefore usually packed) but everyone will make room for you as the need arises. As far as downtown goes, the Imperial Room is slightly more laid-back than its neighbors, but is one of our favorite places to go for great drink specials and a good time.

FEATURE: Great happy hour includes ALL 10 Great Taps, Including Bells, Bass, Stella.... Plus, NEVER A COVER!

This bar is one of my favorites downtown. We usually come on tuesday for the martinis. Mardigan is great, usually spinning some fun music. We like to sit outside. Also I agree with everyone the bartenders here are some of the best around. Back again next Tuesday.

The IR is a good place to grabs a small drink for big $$$. Also a good place to meet those plus size women trying so fiercely to fit into those skinny jeans that would be perfect for an anorexic Paris Hilton look alike, but she might already be pop lockin and droppin it with the U of M sophomore singing the "in Da Club" with a drunken confidence
