Not only does Stella’s have 200 different types of whiskey, but it also has classic arcade games (Galaga is MY game!), a jukebox filled with music from the Smiths to Genesis, and an awesome bar top filled with real ticket stubs from killer concerts like Iggy and The Stooges, Elvis Costello and Talking Heads.
