It seems like this bar (formerly Lucky Strike), overloaded with activities and a huge menu, is singlehandedly attempting to make up for Hyde Park's lack of nightlife options. Though it can’t possibly succeed on its own, it does make a valiant effort. The main room, with a forest of tables and TVs aplenty, is capped off with a sizable bar that dishes out a wide selection of drinks, including multiple varieties of Goose Island. The menu of bar food, served until 11 p.m., offers stick-to-your gut favorites like quesadillas and a great catfish sandwich. If that’s not enough, there’s a whole room devoted to pool ($12 an hour) and another devoted to bowling ($16 an hour); just make sure to bring a credit card or you can’t play. Though its lonely location near a hospital isn’t exactly jumping with nightlife, at least you can stay at Seven Ten Lanes all night and not get bored.

Average cost: $10-$20
