This place is not for the faint of heart. Absolutely no-frills, unpretentious, super friendly. Cheap ass drinks and weirdly endearing bar food. AWESOME jukebox. One of those places locals frequent.

Sister's is a bar/restaurant/music venue. While the food is hit or miss, the space is so darn beautiful we can't help but point it out. The architecture alone deserves a shout out.
