Wardlow Station offers billiards, karaoke, an outdoor spot to smoke and a few flat screens.<\/p>\n<p>With that said, these &#8220;amenities&#8221; are not what caught my attention. In the far corner of this bar, there is a lobster tank that had been turned into a claw game. It&#8217;s $2.00 to play, and if you grab a lobster, they cook it for free. I won on my first try! $2.00 in my wallet was quickly transformed into a lobster dinner, complete with all the trimmings (butter &amp; salt).<\/p>\n<p>Besides the delicious lobster, I had two gimlets for the grand total of $12.00, not including tip. I left Wardlow Station feeling like a victor. These results are not guaranteed for all patrons. I have friends who have invested over $40 into their lobster dinner and have not yet tasted buttery victory.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" size-full wp-image-21774\" src=\"https:\/\/lbpost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/IMG_20121123_203312.jpg\" alt=\"IMG 20121123 203312\" width=\"620\" height=\"620\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The crowd at this bar is middle-aged to old. This in my opinion makes drinking-conversations all the more interesting. The low-key atmosphere, combined with low priced drinks makes Wardlow Station a great place to visit.<\/p>\n<p><em>Wardlow Station is located at 1174 E.
