Another little resto that popped up down south in Bishop Arts area is the house-turned-bar/eatery, 303.  Aptly named, it’s located at 303 West Davis.  I’m not sure how novel naming a bar after its address is anymore, but it’s catchy nonetheless.

303 took over and renovated a little house complete with a fireplace and wrap-around porch (yup).  Watch out, all, the porch is segregated (yeah, you read that right).  There are separate porches for the eaters/drinkers and the drinkers/smokers – both complete with TVs as to not miss a second of your favorite basketball/football/lacrosse game.  The three TVs inside and the fact that they serve beer and pulled pork pancakes for brunch round out your Sunday afternoons – the locals found this out pretty quickly and have already claimed this place as their own.

Sidle up to the bar (because, let’s face it, I know bars better than tables) and peruse the menu – lots of sandwiches along with some other homemade favorites.  I didn’t eat anything, so I can’t say much about the food — sorry for partying.  They have fish and chips, so you know I’ll be back! 

In the drinks, though, I partook.  Andrew, bartender and some other sort of important person at 303, recommended the Gummy Bear Martini.  I’d say pass on it unless you like those so-sweet-you-only-want-one drinks.  However, he seems to know his way around that bar, so ask for him anyway.  Their beer selection is limited, but they offer the usuals (Miller, Coors, Dos XX, Shiner, Heineken, Corona, Tecate, PBR, and NATTY LIGHT).  Selected beers are also available on draft.  If you’re a wine fan, they have that, too.

The last things I’m going to say are these three small things:
– They have a fireplace (it goes from the dining room to the porch)
– Their decor is heavy on skulls – awesome.
– (Any even decent followers of mine will understand this) is that they have Whipped Lightning behind their bar.  Bravo.
