Happy Hour Is Where The Heart Is


            It is the New Year, and the buzz of activity that amasses around the holiday season is slowly declining.  As people settle in to the year at hand, many think about what activities or places may define their life for the next year.
            Recently, I returned to the Cedarwood Bar and Grill with my girlfriend because we were looking for something to divert our attention from the humdrum of daily activity.  Although we use to frequent this establishment on occasion, for me, it was never a usual stomping-ground.
            On New Year’s Eve though, we decided to give this local bar another chance.  Upon entering the bar we were greeted by the typical sights, and sounds we had come to expect of the Cedarwood.  This atmosphere involves a largely cedar wood interior with random humorous signage, and chotzskys placed around the bar environment.  But what stood out to us on this current outing were some of the recently added specials for happy hour.
            The most notable of these specials are the $2.00 domestic drafts, and $5.00 for 10 hot wings.  If you have the urge for cheap, cold, beer, and an ample, affordable, amount of delicious hot wings, then this certainly is a find.  But, the habanero martini, and blood mary were significant additions to this bar’s menu that are satisfying, and very affordable at just under $6.00 each.
            So if you’re looking for something new to try for happy hour specials in Grants Pass, OR, try the Cedarwood at 1345 Redwood Avenue.
