Get ready for Irish cheer: Ala Carte Entertainment rehabbed the downstairs of its Division Street Alumni Club, giving it the Celtic treatment, complete with Irish bric-a-brac and those perplexing denim-covered barstools. They've brought over the other pub's food and drink deals, which virtually guarantees that you can get your fill any night of the week for less than $10. In addition, the upstairs area, now called The Loft, has been converted into a dance club Thursday through Saturday, so party-goers can grind to classic hits and top 40 beats.
