Busby's West

Watch virtually every sports game from around the world on 50 TVs surrounding three bars at this Santa Monica hot spot. Choose from 20 draft beers while chowing on burgers, wings, pulled pork and pizza. For a real steal, enjoy $1 tacos and $2.50 pints on Taco Tuesdays. Wednesdays see a NCAA-inspired beer pong tournament with cash prizes for winners. Billiards, videogames, darts, backgammon, foosball and arcade games add to the fun. Once the after-work crowd clears out, local frat boys and sorority girls take over, turning the sports bar into a pseudo-nightclub. (There's even a free limo service to and from the UCLA campus for students on Wednesday to Saturday nights.)
