Hobbsy & Me

Back in September, oh so long ago haha... we took a trip out to the Hallie area to drop by a few of the bars on the outskirts of Eau Claire. The first stop on this trip happened to be "Hobbsy & Me" located at 3620 Locust Lane.

Hobbsy & Me isn't a very large bar, but does have 2 pool tables, 2 video game machines, 2 arcade games, 1 pinball machine, 1 dart board, and a jukebox. There are two TVs for your viewing pleasure which were tuned into the Brewers game this evening. Tap beer is served in refrigerated mugs and are fairly inexpensive, it costs us $3.75 for the two we ordered up upon arrival. Brews are priced right here at Hobbsy & Me so you may want to drop by during their Happy Hour for another $.50 off all drinks from 3-6pm Monday through Friday.


Attendance was somewhat small when we took our 10pm reading with 7 guys and 3 girls. The Attractiveness Rating was an 8/10. Not too bad for being on the outskirts of Eau Claire in addition to it being a Thursday night. While conversing with the bartender and a few of the patrons we learned about a new shot called the "ankle shot". Apparently you can have this shot anywhere, but they prefer you to try one at Hobbsy & Me. All you need to do is drop your shorts to your ankles while taking the shot of your choice. Sounds like a good shot!

The prices are good at Hobbsy & Me and while there weren't too many in attendance, they did look good. The layout is basic and the restrooms are clean and stocked. Definitely a nice stop for some conversation and drinks.

Beer Rating: 4/5
Sausage Factor: 2.33

Attractiveness Rating: 8/10
