New Bar Thursday: Caribou Tavern

The Caribou is a diamond in the rough. The Cardinal bar team hasn't quite found the diamond yet, but we're sure it's there somewhere.  

 

Perhaps The Bou is such a gem because of its authenticity—it sure ain't your trendy faux dive. This is the real deal. With small trucker town charm, The Bou offers Pabst Blue Ribbon in cans under its dim, sometimes broken, lighting.  

 

The Bou is a great place for anyone looking for something off the beaten path. What's even better is it offers the opportunity to launder while you guzzle. With a Laundromat next door, you can always find Bou patrons with their undies in the dryer. Who knew you could be so productive while smashing empty PBR cans on your head?
