TOP BARS AT THE NORTHRIDGE MALL - GET REAL VALLEY BY JULIAN PARK

Hey, I'm tired of shopping here just like most of you guys are. In fact, I'm done with it. I don't have any bags here, so I'm gonna go get a drink right now. But the problem is is where do you go get a drink at the North, which small? You might not have thought about it, but I've put some thought into it while the rest of your family is out spending all of my hard earned dollars, I want to go out and get a drink so at least I can feel good about myself. Here are the three criteria, location, price, and speed to getting a drink. Those are my top three criteria. Let's go guys, by the way, Dave and Buster's is not on this list because by the time you walk up those stairs and you're already done, so just letting you know that.

All right, good. What else is my least favorite place? It's so loud. It's so dark in there. The bar is almost always packed. The prices are really expensive too. Yeah, they have a great selection, but honestly I'm trying to get in, get out and get on with my day yard house. My least favorite place. Don't even come here. You're at macaroni grill. I actually love this place cause they have a happy hour from 3:00 PM to close every day, which is just insane. The problem with macaroni grill is that if you look around, it's so far from the rest of the place. They have a great bar area that's just for bar. They have a dedicated bartender that a Serbian drinks right away. Great drink menu, great food menu. The problem is is that it's pretty much in a whole different country, relatively speaking. I love macaroni grill.

If you guys don't make by making a short stroll, this is actually one of the better places to grab a drink in the Northern trashiest manner. Cheers. I'm here at Buffalo wild wings, which is kind of farther out from the rest of the mall, but it has happy hour from two to six, but you get $3 beers. That's a really good price, especially if you're trying to save money over the holidays. As you can see though, it's usually pretty crowded here. It's pretty loud here and bar, even though it's middle of the day, there's still a good amount of people in there. I will say it's not the best. Last year was last place for me, but this year it's moving up a little bit. I don't mind it too much. It's just that it's kind of loud. The service is slow and it's a little bit foreign and the rest of the chairs.

All right. Welcome to the bar Louie. It's kind of in the corner of the complex, but you come out here, the surface is fast. Usually there's not really a way. Music's not too loud and great selection of drinks. I like bar Louie. They have a great food menu. It's not the best one, but it's definitely one of the better ones here in the Northeast fashion center. You guys probably didn't know, but California pizza kitchen does have a bar. I'm going to bring it to number two on this list because it's always open. As you can see, they don't really have a dedicated bartender person that's just for the bar, but still have that, that food comes out pretty quickly here. They have a great selection of drinks, nice atmosphere. It's a little too open for me because I like when I want to drink, I just want to slam it and get back to what I'm doing.

Hey, it's California pizza kitchen. It's close to a lot of the parties close to Macy's, close to H and can't argue with that. It's number two on this list. It's a red Robin. Last year I didn't really like this place, but this year it's pretty good. Why are you coming here? Bar's always open. You get your beer right away and the prices are good and if you wanted this pretty good many here, but most importantly it's really close to the mall. Yeah, kinda lacks personality, but who cares? You're going to get a beer and get back to shopping or pick up the rest of your family. I recommend red Robin. It's not number one place to grab a drink at the Northridge. Paul, while you're doing holiday shopping. I'll see you guys here.
