Note that Finn's is temporarily CLOSED due to COVID. This review is for before COVID regulations were enforced.
My college experience wouldn't have been the same without Finn's. My friends and I would come here almost every Wednesdays for cheap Wells drinks (Wells Wednesday). The prices would alternate between $1 & $2 depending on the hour, so we would come here at 11pm for peak hour and $1 drinks. Their Wells selection includes rum, tequila, vodka, (and I think gin?) with a choice of orange juice, soda, cranberry juice, pineapple juice, or ginger beer (+$2) for mix-in. Our main go-tos were vodka cranberries and tequila sunrises. The bartenders are all pretty heavy handed, so make sure to mix the drinks well!
Out of all of the bars on The Ave, Finn's is the darkest, loudest, and probably the most crowded. Make sure to arrive early to grab a table. If you want to have a conversation with your friend sitting next to you, you're either going to have to shout or just pretend and smile and nod haha. Finn's is also the only bar with a dance floor so there's usually a lot of action going on.
Service is okay. It can be difficult to get the bartender's attention because people just crowd around the bar so you have to be patient.
In summary, Finn's is a place for quality over quantity, so don't expect anything too fancy for $1; come here just to get tipsy with friends and mingle with the college crowd.
Hopefully Finn's will open up again once corona subsides.
Overall: 3/5 for drinks, 3/5 for service, 3/5 for atmosphere
