Expect a youngish crowd and plenty of activities to entertain at this former Highwood firehouse. Plasma TVs play sports all day while DJs and bands perform at night. Though the menu sticks to mainly bar food, like cocktail shrimp, burgers and pizza, the drink menu is long and diverse: specialty martinis, mojitos, beers and wines.
