The Pine Club Restaurant 1926 Brown Street Dayton, Ohio 45409 Review http://thepineclub.com

The Pine Club greeted us with a sign on the front door that read, “appropriate dress required,” as we moseyed in wearing sweatpants and tennis shoes. After searching for quarters in our couch, we came up with enough money to pay for our $10 hamburgers. Sorry to disappoint all of you who like to swipe mom and dad’s credit card, but the Pine Club only takes cash or personal checks. We ordered from the carry out menu, and our order was ready when we arrived. The carry-out menu features the same items that can be ordered inside, mainly steak and seafood. Only a short walking distance from any point on campus, The Pine Club is open for dinner from 5 p.m. to midnight Monday through Thursday and 4:30 THE WOMEN OF p.m. to 12:30 a.m. on Friday and Saturday. Carry out service is available Monday through Friday. overall dissatisfaction. I’ll admit Roommates: Juniors Sarah Meyer, Jamie Carpenter, Erin Bolles, Jenny Biette, Erin Murphy and Hannah Blosser.
