CJ's Laconia

[sa meredith]

3 of us were up in Meredith this past Saturday night/ Sunday for early morning golf or boating, followed by watching the Pats/Jets at 4. The weather man cancelled our outdoor plans early, on Sunday, so at 2:30 we headed over to Tbones in Laconia, and ended up downstairs at CJ's. Great, great place to watch games. I had no idea how many quality TVs they had. We were able to watch the end of both 1PM games, and the last 4 innings of a GREAT Sox game, without leaving the bar stool. Had to swivel, but no problem. Drafts were 1.99 (or 2.99, not sure...I think Bud Light Draft was 1.99), and all apps (except shrimp) were 5.99 during Boston sporting events. Seriously, this place is very nice...and lively during Pat's games (or maybe we made it that way...we were quite loud).
As the Pat's game began, a small room they have on the side cleared out, so we moved, and ended up sitting on leather sofas...they have two or three...with full service in this room (I think they call it "Texas"). Great time...ate like pigs..and drank, A LOT...there for 4.5 hours, and bill was $130 for 3 of us...thought this to be very reasonable. Remember though...I believe these prices were available only during game time.
If you happen to be driving by this place, stop in and give it a look. I never knew it to be a sports bar, but was wrong.
