Eat, Drink, & Repeat, something you can do until 2am (full menu served!) at this Dinkytown Gem.

The Downtime Bar & Grill is an upscale version of the other offerings in the area. The interior is laid with slate floors, inviting lighting, a granite, fully-stocked bar, and a food menu that brings "urban chic" to a recognizable list of pizzas, pastas, salads, and burgers ($6-11). Downtime goes with a theme that should appeal to students: quality service, excellent food, and hip decor; all at a low price.

The staff is overly friendly, recommending beers/wines to compliment your food and choosing to play whatever music the crowd wants, from Hip Hop to classic rock. FREE WiFi also makes this a great place to meet for study groups or business lunches.

THRIFTY TIP: $5.50 Soup & Sandwich Lunch Special

Good food and drink specials. Really bad stage set up. There is a railing blocking the stage from the seating, not to mention the sound board is right in front everything.

This is the greatest bar ever. The bartenders are the shit. Check out Sundays for all day happy hour and bottomless bloody marys for 8 bucks. Its rad!

I really like this place. A nice stop after class or a night of heavy drinking. No frat boys ever come, which is a plus.

great food, decent drink specials. music is really hit-or-miss and occasionally gets too cramped. The Wednesday night mug deal is the best though -- where else can you eat and drink (lots) on a date for $20??

If you don't like good music, please stay away
