Overall



Despite it's small size, Christine's is usually not too crowded. This isn't a bad place to start or end your night, but unless you just want to get drunk, there's not much else to do. Christine's is worth stopping in for a drink if you're on the far end of the Strip, but probably not worth going out of your way for unless you're a regular.

Atmosphere



Located on the second floor of a corner building about two-thirds of the way down the main drag, Christine's is a tiny, but welcoming bar. The decor is nothing special, but this bar seems to attract a cult following. Actual bar space and seating is fairly tight, so don't plan on showing up with a large crew. The bathroom is small, but in decent shape. Seats by the windows have a nice view of the street below and are a good place to sit and enjoy your drink.

Food/Drink



Christine's has a wide array of mixed drinks to choose from. The wall behind the bar is plastered with little slips of paper featuring their many drinks with intriguing names and more intriguing cartoons. A limited menu is available for a late bite to eat, as well as the usual assortment of bar snacks. Prices are consistent with most bars in Songtan

Music



This bar has the pretty standard set-up of playing music off of a computer. Customers have easy access to the rotation, and you are generally welcome to pick and choose from her selection.

Service



This creatively named bar is of course owned by a woman named Christine. She is very friendly to her customers, and will often buy drinks for her regulars and favorites. She seems to enjoy sampling her own stock, so the free booze tends to flow more easily towards the end of the evening. Getting a drink from the bar is relatively painless, and Christine is good about making sure you don't sit with an empty drink for too long. This bar is juicy- and ajima-free.

Extracurriculars



Christine's has both a pool table and dart boards, but they are placed so poorly in this tiny bar that spectators are bound to end up with a pool cue to the crotch or a dart sticking out of their neck by night's end. Needless to say, dancing is not an option.
