New Masters Bar and Restaurant Adds Competition to the Already Intense Nightlife Brawl at Temple University While the college party circuit can be entertaining to underage and uninitiated students, the prospect of drinking alcohol without legal ramifications is one that many Temple University students enjoy upon turning 21. To mam’ who are 21 or older, the bars surrounding Temple’s campus arc (or, at one point, were) a veritable wellspring of alcohol and atmosphere; accessible venues where friends can gather and catch up over drinks without the paranoia that comes with drinking underage or the sweaty, cramped haze of basement keg parties. The most popular bars within walking distance of Temple’s main campus are Maxi’s Pizza, Subs Bar. Pub Webb and the Draught Horse. As each of these bars rcstaurants provide patrons with uniquely different environments, menus and drink specials, it is not surprising that students quickly develop favorites. It is almost impossible for Temple students to go a semester without hearing mention of Maxi’s signature pizza, Pub Webb’s cheap specials, or the Draught Horse’s not-so-secret Wednesday evening parties. This year, however, a new’ player arrived on the scene: Masters Bar and Restaurant. Not yet a year old, Masters has proven to be a worthy adversary of the time-honored Temple watering holes that are haunted by regulars. Matteo Palmas, a 5th-year senior at Temple majoring in marketing, bases his opinions of the various bars surrounding the university on his extensive experience as a bartender. “Masters offers good service, which the Draught Horse lacks, good drinks, which Maxi’s lacks, and a great environment, which Pub Webb lacks,” he said. Palmas’ opinion of Masters as an ideal environment is echoed by Thomas Pontius, a junior majoring in accounting. “What I like most about Masters is the environment, he said. “It’s a place where you can enjoy good food while watching the game.” As Palmas and Pontius attest, Masters seems to offer a winning combination of quality food, alcoholic beverages and a comfortable environment that keeps students returning for more. With such a range of options, Temple students of legal drinking age may find themselves wondering which local bar is most worth their attention. Personal preference is entirely subjective and based on the perceptions of individual patrons. On the other hand, popular opinion around main campus appears to be in favor of the latest addition to the Temple bar scene. Anyone curious as to which establishment they might prefer will have to try them all, and let the bars battle for the top position. WRITTEN BY NATHAN KELLER PHOlOGRAPHY BY ZOE EVANITVS

Peabody Hall: Senior Claire Spurrier did not have a problem making it to her classes on time because she lived right next to them in Peabody Hall. She explained that the rooms should be updated but added that it did give a “homey” feel. Johnson and Hardwick Hall: In Johnson Hall, senior Emma Purcell was able to make plenty of friends her freshman year. “I loved how close my floor was and all of the activities evcnts our RA’s did for us,” she said. And they did not have to go far to get something to eat. Temple Towers: For students like Paulina Jayne Isaac, Temple Towers was the next stop after freshman year. Isaac likes the more “personal apartment style” that Temple Towers has. “I like having a kitchen and living room, the room has a cozy feel to it,” she said. “It was very convenient being connected to written by siobhan redding the dining hall,” she said. photography by shelbie pletz
