If you're in the mood for a frosty glass of beer and some of the best pizza in town, then head on over to Black Thorn Pub and Pizza, located in the buzzing South Grand neighborhood. On busy nights, customers pack into this dimly lit dive bar and wait up to two hours for the famed made-to-order Chicago-style pie, while classic '80s-style video games, pinball, foosball and air hockey pass the time. At Black Thorn, there are no waiters or waitresses, so head up to the bar to order a Newcastle, Guiness, Schlafly Hefeweizen or Bell's Amber Ale on tap, and don't forget to put in for an order of the fantastic garlic bread. The humble decor consists of dollar bills tacked to the ceiling and two small rooms filled with tables and booths; the high-energy clientele includes everyone from softball teams, local residents and college students. For Black Thorn pizza lovers under 21, the same great pies with the same spicy sauce are also available at its sister location, Lemons.
