Free food and cheap drinks at happy hours

(Continued from Page7)
get hungry, they offer a full dinner
menu. Happy hour is from 2 to 5 p.m.,
Monday through Friday.
The atmosphere at the University
Club, located in the Michigan Union, is
much different. A far more lively crowd
gathers from 4 to 7 p.m. every Monday
through Saturday. Pitchers are only $2
and mixed drinks are $1. The U Club
also offers live entertainment and free
munchies (popcorn, crackers and
cheese), which makes for one of the

most festive and sociable places in
town. Plenty of students and even some
University administrators attend.
Social could also be the word to
describe the happy hour at Hardy's,
located downtown on Huron Street in
the lobby of the Ann Arbor Inn. Here,
the crowd could be described as "young
and professional," as, one frequenter
said. Hardy's happy hour prices reflect
the working crowd and are not
especially low-mixed drinks are two
for one with no specials on beer. Yet,

Hardy's offers something rare on cam-
pus-free food. Monday through Friday
from 5 to 7 p.m., fried clams, chicken
wings, smelt and ravioli are free at
Hardy's. For the price of a drink, a near
feast is at your beck and call.
If the young professional crowd is not
your style, try the Friday happy hour at
Dooley's, 310 Maynard. From 2 to 5
p.m. pitchers are one dollar off regular
price and hot dogs are only one quarter
apiece (a Daily favorite). The enter-
tainment consists of a large screen

television and loud recorded music, but
if you're in the mood for meeting fellow
undergrads, Dooley's has the happy
hour for you.
Away from such maddening crowds
(read: off campus), there are many
fine happy hours, too. The following
bars aren't within walking distance, but
with such marvelous bargains each and
every one is worth the trip.
The Sheraton Hotel's happy hour is a
fine example of a student/young
professional happy hour. The reason?
The Sheraton-across from Briarwood
Mall-offers a free taco bar to all its
customers. For 41.25 for either a mixed
drink or a glass of beer, you can eat an
entire taco meal. From 4:30 to 7:30
p.m., Monday through Friday, you can
come down to the Sheraton and see all
sorts of freeloaders-there not for the
prices, but for the tacos.
Near the Sheraton is Smuggler's Inn,
which most students have not yet
discovered. This haven of food and
drink attracts mostly professionals.
Mixed drinks are only 75 cents and the
free food is abundant and changes daily
to include such luxuries as roast beef,
shrimp, submarine sandwiches, and
nachos. The atmosphere is very quiet,
however, and fairly dressy, but for such
great eating, it's well worth the effort.
Mantel's Restaurant, located in the
Briarwood Hilton, is another bar in
which dressing up is necessary to look
in place with the professional people.
Here, Monday through Friday from
4:30 to 7:30 p.m., happy hour prices are
75 cents for a glass of either beer or
wine with no other specials. At Man-
tel's, however, the food is free and with
different cheeses, meatballs, and smelt
to satisfy your palate, you barely notice
that you're lacking a gin and tonic.
If you happen to be one of the unfor-
tunate few thousand who aren't quite
21-years-old, still try to attend some of
these happy hours. In some places
you'll get served, in others you'll get
embarrassed. But even if you only or-
der a Coke, they are great afternoon
party places that provide a good chance
to meet both students and allthose
other funny looking people around
town.
Record
stores
(Continued from Page 5)
one of its highlights is an excellent
collection of hard-to-find R & B records.
Schoolkids has a used record store on
East William, a tiny little hovel
primarily interested in rare discs, but
worth a visit for the average listener.
For the insatiable music-lover,
regular visits to the local Salvation
Army, St. Vincent de Paul, Treasure
Mart and Old Curiosity Shop can often
turn up discarded gems, as almost
anything that anyone could want on
vinyl can be found or quickly procured
somewhere in this city.

MORE THAN A BOOKSTORE
549 E. University at the corner of East U. and South U. 662-3201

By Tony Corbeill
For those planning to spend four
years in Ann Arbor, the first question
on the future student's mind is not
"Where is CRISP?" but rather "Where
are the good record stores?" Ah, good
question! For music lovers from
Muskegon-and maybe even Manhat-
tan-Ann Arbor is an Eden.
Music of almost every genre, style
and age can be found in the city's new
and used record bins. Just as each of
these stores caters to different tastes,
so too do they have their own unique
flavor. The following is a brief review of
the various locales-visits are a
necessity.
Recently chosen as one of the top 10
record stores in the U.S. by Oui
magazine, Schoolkids on East Liberty
Street is generally considered the city's
most diversified record shop. Expan-
ded this year to twice its previous size,
the new store now includes tapes as
well as the finest choice of jazz, rock
and imports you'll find anywhere.
Another good store for imports is
Make Waves/Ann Arbor T-Shirt
Gallery on State Steet which, as the
name implies, carries mainly music at
the forefront of the sub-culture but also
has an excellent Reggae selection.
For mainstream listeners State
Discount (with two locations-State

Street and South University) carries
the top 40 for only a few cents less than
Schoolkids. Across the street on State is
Discount Records, a name that doesn't
necessarily reflect its prices.
Classical listeners will be more than
satisfied with Liberty Music, a few
doors down from Schoolkids. Besides
its important position in being the only
good store for classical music in the
city, other salient features of Liberty
are its listening booths and selection of
nostalgia and spoken records.
For those seeking a treasured collec-
tor's edition of We're Only In It For The
Money or just looking for a good buy,
Ann Arbor's used and rare record
stores are unsurpassed. The old stand-
by, Wazoo Records (and the new Wazoo
Annex, both located on State Street),
has been receiving much-needed com-
petition lately. Last summer, two new
used-disc emporiums, PJ's and Record
and Tape Exchange, opened up to
challenge Wazoo's well-balanced selec-
tion.
PJ's (on Packard Road right next-
door to Campus Corners) has ap-
proximately the same offerings as
Wazoo, with the added boost of em-
ploying some of the friendliest people in
town. Record and Tape Exchange (on
East Williamn Street above the Orient
Express) also carries new records and
