so what's the deal with 1863. where is it? food other than bfast? good? bad?
Formerly Campus Tavern, which was formerly The Loft. Food (other than bfast) is okay. They have some pretty good specials throughout the week, including $5 bottles of wine that you can schoolyard with your friends.
Also, their "specialty drink" or whatever is the LAX bomb, which is just some liquor they set on fire then put a coaster on it, which puts out the fire. You lift the coaster, drink the bomb ASAP, and return the coaster on top. You then take a straw and poke a hole in the top of the coaster, and inhale the leftover fumes. I don't know if it gets you any drunker, but the ritual is pretty fun.
