    Construction will be done way before July so that won't be an issue at all. Don't know what day u plan on getting in the area but FFF would b ok on Fri during lunch (they open at 1130 mon-fri) but if u go on Sat for lunch I'd suggest getting there an hour before they open just to make sure ur group can sit together. Don't go to FFF on fri or sat night way too crowded.

    Had bachelor party a few months ago and started at Piece. The pizza is outstanding, but I wouldn't go any later than 4pm if you are planning on eating (really gets packed). It is also a great jumping off point for some great bars right around there...Map Room is within walking distance and Local Option is only a quick cab ride from there.

    Plus, pepperoni can double as pasties.

    Now I know you don't have enough friends for this to be a problem Frank, but another disadvantage to FFF is they don't seat more than six to a table. They won't move furniture around and whatnot to accommodate a larger group. So to the OP, unless it's a small party, you may want to go elsewhere.

    Edit: Make sure to replace the batteries in your sarcasm detector before reading. :wink:

    I just got back from my bachelor party in Chi. You need to hit up Clark St Ale House, especially if it's nice outside. When I went last week they had Bourbon County and 120 min in bottles, and excellent draft across the board.

    If you have a party bus or a large group do not go to the Map Room. They will not let you in.

    Oh I know, but if I had just responded to the OP, I would have lost the opportunity to bust your balls, and I couldn't let that happen. :grinning:

    Get back to me when your team has won a championship in your lifetime.

    We're saying five now? I always thought the saying was, "Wait til next near." Way to lower the bar.

    Can't rebuild over night. Especially with the 8 year, $160 million situation currently residing in LF.

    I would do Revolution. You can do party packages upstairs for really reasonable prices. You could do that for a few hours and then go hit the town.

    I was just planning a bachelor party a couple months ago and we were very close to doing this, but there were too many people in town that weren't that into beer and didn't want to stray that far from downtown.
