At Three Bridges Tavern, owner Joe Sokolowski does it all. Sokolowski bought Three Bridges Tavern about a year and a half ago to fulfill his dream of owning a bar. Bartender Joe Atamaniuk estimates the building, which used to be a hotel, has been here since 1849. They treat me well and they pay me well. Smiles and casual conversation are a large part of the atmosphere.
Customers often play pool or darts as classic rock blares from the jukebox.
Sokolowski is careful to make sure the competition or conversation never gets too heated. This bar is just a nice, friendly, local place. Many regulars eat dinner here several nights a week. The tavern offers a typical menu of bar food, with a special pizza or steak night offered several times a week. I know everyone here.
