text: With Halloween coming up this week I felt compelled to review The Attic The past two years I have somehow ended up at The Attic on Halloween weekend and I really have to recommend the balcony looking out on Tryon Street From the balcony you can see quite the show on Halloween You get a great view of all the costumed crowds from the Playboy bunnies to the Civil War soldiers and the drunk couples arguing etc nnMost times of the year however The Attic is not really my kind of place It is overpriced packed with your standard Uptown bar crowd and it can sometimes take forever to get served at the bar because it is so crowded I much prefer Madisons next door
