Trend Alert: Dining and Drinking in Outrageous Places

It's happened to me more than once: After work I'll be waiting at the bus stop and think, man I could use a beer.

It's happened to me more than once: After work I'll be waiting at the bus stop and think, man I could use a beer. It looks like I'm not the only one who had this idea: An entire town in the UK has turned a bus stop — complete with "open" sign and landlord — into a makeshift pub. As the price of food and eating out has become increasingly expensive, more and more people are looking for alternative ways to get together and enjoy a beer or meal. From bus stops to the middle of the sea to pubs on wheels, creative thinkers are pushing the envelope on when and where one can eat.

Why not host a dinner in a subway? After all, if there's fabulous food, good company, and plenty of drink, it doesn't matter where you are — a fun time will be had. My eyes are peeled for this type of unconventional roaming restaurant, and I'm dying to host my own dinner party in an unheard of location. How about you, got any suggestions? Have you been to a makeshift eatery of this sort?

Would You Ride on the Pedal Pub?

Looking for a unique way to go on a pub crawl and get a great workout?

Looking for a unique way to go on a pub crawl and get a great workout? Then next time you're in the Minneapolis area, you should look up the folks at the Pedal Pub.

It's a bicycle powered pub — and yes, you and your fellow tourmates do the biking — that allows you to get drunk and bike at the same time. Right now you're not legally allowed to consume alcohol while biking, but there's actually a bill in the works that would allow you to do so. For now you just have to bike to a pub, drink up and bike to the next pub.

So tell me, would you want a ride on the Pedal Pub? Or do you think drinking and biking just don't mix?
