There's something to be said for a bar that is only open Thursday, Friday and Saturday: they know their crowd. Why waste time and money being open when the majority of your clientele is busy going to class and studying? The nights that it is open, Brownies is definitely a college bar scene with all of the trimmings -- DJ and dance floor, original and cover bands playing every night and an enormous circular bar that offers plenty of opportunity to get the bartender's attention. If you're looking for a subdued place to have a nice quiet drink, you'll probably have better luck elsewhere. You won't have to worry about getting bored at Brownies, there's always something to capture your attention, aside from the masses of University City students kicking back and blowing off steam. In addition to the live music, located in the adjoining soundproof Chestnut Room, there are multiple flat screen TVs scattered around and a bustling row of pool tables. Brownies also knows their crowd's finances -- deeply discounted drink specials and free midnight buffets cater to the college budget.
