Dead Poets is a little hole in the wall bar that is dedicated to dead poets and booze.  Their walls are covered with quotes about alcohol written by famous poets (a disproportionate amount are from Hemingway).  There is a drink list named after poets and they are STRONG.  If you're a Guinness lover you can get your name inscribed on a plaque on the wall after drinking 100+ pints. 



  • Open everyday until 4 a.m.
  • Accepts credit cards
  • Best deal:  If your birthday falls on the same day as a dead poet's then you drink for free on your birthday (thank you Edgar Allen Poe)
