Five-stars in class, hands down.
Good luck not finding the beer you're looking for. We came in and Matt (manager) handily served up our requested San Miguel AND Magner's.
Chock-full of character. You can't fake this. One doesn't just dropped $50 Gs and recreate this patina. It is entirely earned.
Every town has its "Hospitality Watering Hole" - The Leon Pub serves as TLHs.
For you smokers and would-be smokers out there - this place welcomes you with the tobacco haze you're seeking. For me, it's too much - but I recognize it's part of the deal.

Or maybe I came in while they were doing renovations, I'll give it another try in a...
Read moreMy favorite bar in Tallahassee! The Leon Pub has one of the best selections of bottled beer anywhere in Tallahassee, including all my favorites from Germany and around the world. The atmosphere is fun, with a range of ages represented and welcoming to all. The pool tables are always in use and there are darts and foosball in the back room. But as a dive beer, expect fewer sorority girls, and a lot more cigarette smoke. I try to get in here with friends every few weeks and I always find people to just strike up random conversations with in this friendly bar. Oh Leon Pub, don't...
