GET READY FOR GIRL'S NIGHT OUT
Girl's night out now has a place to go.
The Met Bar & Grill is offering a "girlfriend's night" every Thursday.
"A lot of people walking by the pub on Columbia don't realize we have an amazing patio in the back," general manager Craig Brennan said in a press release. "Now that summer's here we thought a night dedicated to women and what they like to drink would be a great way to build clientele and have fun at the same time. We are also fortunate to have Limina Spa as a sponsor of the night."
Each week, the Met will give away a $25 gift card to the spa and a grand prize worth more than $300 will be drawn at the end of the summer.
Guys are also welcome to join the party at 411 Columbia St.
