For the non-regulars here's the scoop...
This is a very laid back monthly gathering at our favorite local place. We meet in a no-smoking, sports and Irish themed restaurant with happy hour specials on some appetizers and drinks. I reserve tables starting at 4:30, but you can wander in whenever. Usually there are still a handful of us still around at 7. Quite a few people eat dinner, but you don't have to.
Don't let the happy hour thing fool you. This is a very family friendly restaurant so you can feel comfortable bringing your kids if you'd like.
