Carolina Coffee Shop
138 E. Franklin St.
Dark wooden booths and
tables, long red drapery and
elaborate hanging lamps highlight
the Coffee Shop's striking medie
val decor. In the midst of such
surroundings you expect the
Knights of the Round Table to
appear at any moment and join
you for a few drinks. Although
Robin Hood and his friends never
arrive, you are guaranteed a
stimulating conversation with the
interesting group of professionals
and one of the few places where
you can get an alcoholic drink as
early as 9 in the morning. Couples
can retire to a cozy booth and
enjoy a late-night drink with one
of the Coffee Shop's fabulous
desserts. Ordering a drink
becomes a chore at the Carolina
Coffee Shop as you must choose
from a long, impressive list of
wines, liquers and mixed and hot
drinks.
Colonel Chutney's
300 W. Rosemary St.
Happy Hour: 4:30-6 p.m. every
day
Colonel Chutney's has to be one
of the top late-night spots in
Chapel Hill, and it just may be
the most well-rounded. Plants and
latticework surround all the
booths and help create a cheerful
atmosphere that is hard to beat.
Chutney's late-night menu offers
finger foods, sandwiches, salads,
soups, chili, gourmet burgers and
the renowned prime rib sandwich
that keeps people coming back all
the time. The bar specializes in
mixed drinks and offers 23 differ
ent brands of beer. Once the dinner
crowd clears out at 9, rock 'n' roll
tapes are played and the bar turns
into a lively spot for fun and
conversation.
He's Not Here
112 W. Franklin St.
Happy Hour: 4-7 p.m. every day
One of these Tuesday nights, be
sure to take a study break and
head for He's Not Here. YouVe
probably never seen anything
quite like it, and you definitely
won't study on Tuesdays anymore:
in offering 25-cent drafts and
pitchers for $1.50, He's Not Here
kills about 30 kegs. A total of four
bars are in operation Tuesday,
serving as many as 51 different
brands of beer. You 11 mingle with
a sampling of the various people
you pass on campus every day,
which means anyone from a prep
to a jock to a punk rocker. He's
Not Here gears much of its enter
tainment to its college crowd by
bringing in rock 'n' roll, bluegrass
and New Wave bands every few
Saturday nights. There is a huge
selection of video games and
pinball machines as well as two
televisions inside.

Henderson Street Bar
108 Henderson St.
Happy Hours: 3-7 p.m. Monday
through Friday, all day
Wednesday
Most people have heard of the
Henderson Street Bar but cannot
give you any more specific direc
tions than "It's somewhere on
Henderson Street." The fact is that
Henderson Street Bar is quite an
inconspicuous drinking hole. It
mostly draws locals and graduate
students who enjoy the reasonably
priced beer and the easy-going
atmosphere. Some of the regulars
from the .recently closed Upper .
Deck Tavern have now adopted
the Henderson Street Bar as their
new home. All-day happy hour on
Wednesday would be the perfect
time to break up the week's busy
schedule and try Henderson Street
Bar.
Jordan's Le Charolais
157 E. Rosemary St."
A line out the door on Thurs
day, Friday and Saturday nights
has . become a familiar sight at
Jordan's. This bar has been grow
ing in popularity each year, most
significantly amoixg students.
Jordan's may not razzle and dazzle
you with an extravagant interior,
but it does draw an interesting
blend of people, play some hard
rock 'n' roll, and have a good
selection of domestic and
imported beers and mixed drinks
at reasonable prices. Highballs, for
example, cost $1.25 quite low
when compared to other area bars.
You may want to try the house
drink, Kentucky Bowlegged
Woman, which some say origi
nated at Jordan's.
Linda's
HON. Columbia St.
For those of you sitting around
the dormitory room and thinking
to yourself "What am I going to
do tonight?" round up a group
of friends and head over to Lin
da's. You say you don't know
anyone named Linda? Well, don't
fret. You see, Linda's is a bar
uptown where you can grab a
table, a few pitchers of beer and

into a beer-lover's paradise every
Wednesday night when pitchers
are as cheap as $1.75 a piece from
.9 to 11 p.m.
Mexican Underground
149 E. Franklin St.
Dive into the depths of the
Mexican Underground, and you
will be pleasantly surprised. This
new restaurant has tried to imitate,
the characteristics of a Mexican
"canteena," a gathering place of
food and drink. Such an approach
appeals to many students who like
a late-night spot where reasonably
priced drinks and Mexican food
is available. The Mexican Under-
ground frequently presents 50-cent
draft specials.
Molly Maguire's
136 East Rosemary St.
Aye, me lads and lassies
Molly Maguire's can bring out the
wee bit of Irish in all of us. While
you cant label it an Irish pub, the
bar's physical surroundings do
produce the cozy and cheerful
atmosphere so characteristic of all
Irish pubs. It's conspicious awning
of bright orange, green and white
(the colors of the Irish flag)
welcomes you to the establish
ment. Rugby players can feel right
at home in the side room, where
memorabilia from past matches
adorn the walls. Molly's offers its
customers a wide assortment of.
beers, another trademark of Irish
pubs.
Papagayo's
NCNB Plaza
Happy Hours: 4-6 p.m. Monday
Friday; 10p.rn.-l a.m. Wednesday
If the parrot perched at the
entrance to Papagayo's could talk,
he'd have a lot say. Papagayo's is
quite a lively place. Every Thurs
day and Sunday evening youll
find a crowd assembled on Papa
gayo's large outdoor patio to hear
live performances of folk, blues
and even reggae music. Wednes
day nights are busy, as the late
night happy hour crowd invades
Papagayo's.
