A local bar turned on its taps in February to serve up fresh brews to the Burnet community. The One Loose Tooth Tavern is run out of the Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 6974 building at 1402 Buchanan Drive.
The veteran-operated tavern features 33 taps of beers and ciders, pool tables, darts, game machines, and several televisions. Weekly events like half-off drinks for ladies on Tuesdays, pool tournaments on Thursdays, and food trucks on Fridays and Saturdays keep the venue lively.
Post Commander Sean Jones, told DailyTrib that the venue is open to the public– veteran or not– and encapsulates the VFW’s mission of giving back to former service members and the community.
“We are here to serve the community,” he said. “And people should know that the money they spend here is going to, if not to help the veterans, it’s going to help the community. (The VFW) is a nonprofit, so people who want to come in can know their dollars are well spent here.”
According to Jones, the VFW hopes to expand its property to encompass more of its three-acre footprint and become a premiere destination for the community. Current plans include an outdoor patio area with food trucks and a spot for live music and dancing.
Hours of operation: 11 a.m.- 10 p.m. daily
