The name might confuse Tremont regulars: the Hi and Dry was a longtime fixture on West 11th Street in Tremont, the space that is now the Southside. But it’s now been affixed to another space on Professor Avenue a couple of blocks away that used by the Press Wine Bar.
It’s got that Hi and Dry vibe though: a drop-in-anytime neighborhood spot with old standbys (burgers, sandwiches, snacks) on the menu, brewskis in cans and on draft, and a full bar with specialty cocktails if you’re in the mood to live it up a little. But there’s something new in the backroom — duckpin bowling lanes, a variation on regular bowling that’s more compact (shorter lanes, smaller balls) and more suitable for a bar space. They’re open until 2am Friday and Saturday, 12:30am on other days, so it’s a place to go after you’ve gone every place else.
