Fanny Ann's Saloon

I was trying to figure out how long it had been since the Thursday Drunks went to Fanny Ann's and with a quick blog search resulting in nothing, I figured out that we haven't been here for at least 2 1/2 years! Cheesus, how come so long?

Fanny Ann's, located in Old Sacramento, is a narrow, three story cavalcade of cluttery knick-knackery with an old wood bar, stiff drinks and sassy service. It's very much a saloon but also serves up some tasty burgers and fries. The chicken strips were some of the best I've had lately and the chicken wings are the whole damn chicken arm with the little wing attached! Delicious, if a bit creep when all the little wings are pointing at you from the basket.

Drinks are affordable and strong! Only bummer is that you really have to go to the second or third level to find seating, but have to hoof it back down for your drinks and food. There is a bar on the top floor but I've never seen it open. Oh and there is a basement as well that usually serves up karaoke...also why we love the top floor.

The first time we came here we put our newly made Thursday Drunks coaster, circa 2005 on the wall and it's still there - displayed proudly!

This night we rocked with 6 sometimes drunks showing up to spice up the mix! It was a fun crowd and with some musical chairs we worked in some great conversations. We also had some tech support going with an old laptop that needed some help from our more computer savvy members. We are a full service drinking club.
