The Liberty celebrates its 17th anniversary with drink specials and the annual hat giveaway.
One of the East Side’s oldest surviving bars, still holding onto its dive-bar identity while condos rose around it. Inside it’s all jukebox, pool table, and low lighting that makes time disappear; out back, picnic tables and the East Side King truck turn “one drink” into a much longer evening more often than not.
