This is a very nice family owned neighborhood bar. Most of the customers know each other and enjoy each other's company, newcomers always warmly welcomed. They have regular drink specials, pool tables, jukebox, darts and more! If you like a clean, honest, well run business with great drinks, reasonable prices, and great bartenders, Rat race is the place for you. Stop in and say hi to Ruth, Miki and the rest of the gang!!

There’s a meat raffle at 3 PM sound quality of the football game is fantastic. The guy got hurt and we’re still waiting to see if he’s OK the drinks are fairly priced and the Philly cheesesteak looks delicious. Also the pretzels come with cream cheese, which is unique based on my experience with pretzels, I haven’t seen cream cheese available, much jalapeños, couldn’t be spicier, which is a good thing, there are rats on the windows don’t worry they’re not real clean very well. There’s a guy named Kinney who shoots pool either on Tuesdays or Fridays. He’s gonna be here next week Friday next week. He’s an offensive player he does it cheap plenty of parking.
