"Look for the sign that says, “School Uniform Headquarters,” head down the adjacent steps, and follow the sound of pool balls clacking into each other. Congratulations—you’ve found 12 Steps Down in Bella Vista. The wooden, u-shaped bar is at capacity on most nights, but especially on Wednesdays for music trivia Tuesdays for karaoke night, or any day when a Philadelphia sports team is doing something with a ball. The beers are all under $8, the wings and roast porks pair perfectly with Jack Daniel’s, and inhibitions are low." - Candis R. McLean
