If you’re east of the city, you don’t always feel like driving downtown or into the Fan for some late-night fun. And fortunately, you have some strong closer-to-home options. For live music in Mechanicsville, voters are tuned in to Marty’s, which features local bands — with no cover charge — every Saturday. And there’s plenty more to keep things interesting: trivia, theme nights and half-priced wine bottles on Wednesdays. Sportspage Bar & Grille calls itself local and family-friendly, boasting 55 high-def televisions in its Mechanicsville location. And the Sportsman’s Restaurant and Lounge offers a fun atmosphere with pool, darts, poker and daily specials.
