Bars are notable for staying open late, but I’m not really familiar with alternatives that might operate similarly. I think many cafés (at least around my area) tend to close a few hours earlier by comparison, which would be my go-to for an alternative otherwise, so what other options are there?

      Lol my wife and I absolutely used to go to 24 hour grocery stores at like midnight on weekends back before we had kids. We both love cooking so it was fun to slowly peruse the aisles looking for random things we hadn’t noticed before and coming up with ways to use them.

      Lame I guess, but neither of us likes bars that much and we couldn’t afford to go out that often anyway.

      Different strokes for different folks, and all that :)

          Can’t tell if you’re being sarcastic (and no offense taken if you are lol). But I think if you turn it into a home brewed version of Chopped meets Guy’s Grocery Games, you can have a lot of fun with it.

            Not at all! I don’t watch shows very much, but I’ve seen those in hotel rooms and dentist lobbies (weirdly enough) and it sounds good.

      Night owls still need groceries and it’s best to shop when you’re more awake and alert. When I worked a graveyard job, Winco was a lifesaver. I thought if better to include more for those who might be interested.
