I've been here a couple times on blurry nights in the Southside. Local can get obscenely packed, way moreso than other Southside establishments, most likely due to it being relatively new. \n\nIf you're lucky enough to be there on a night where it's jumping but not suffocatingly packed, Local can be a decent hang-out spot especially out on the patio in the summer.\n\nThe crowd is the typical Southside bar crawl crowd but if you're looking for sophistication and cosmopolitan feel... why go to the Southside? Folks are friendly enough, the service is fast if you can get to the bar but the prices can be a little expensif esp. for shots.\n\nStill, I'd say I like Local for a night of drinking and swearing, if the weather's nice and the place isn't jam packed.
