Thirsty Thursday is a weekly tradition that many college students happily partake in. A classic pregame with friends followed by a fun night out at the bars or a house party of your choosing. And what better way to pregame for these blissful nights than with 5 dollar margaritas and 25 cent wings? Thornton’s Fenway Grille is the spot of choice for many Emmanuel students once Thursday rolls around. And there’s always a wait for a table, so you know it’s a good time.
Whether you prefer the classic margarita with salt or like to switch it up and get a strawberry one with sugar, you’ll instantly love how cheap they are. Plus, they taste yummy too! Pair your drinks with as many wings as you’d like, from buffalo to honey mustard flavored, and you have yourself a quality meal. Well, maybe not quality, but definitely budget-savvy.
The best part about Thornton’s? You don’t even have to make plans with anyone because you’ll instantly see smiling familiar faces once you walk through the door. Friends from class, your college bffs, and maybe even your crush from freshman year. It’s a great place to have a good time. Plus, half of the people who work there are also Emmanuel students, and sometimes they hook you up with a free brownie sundae – forever grateful.
I’d definitely consider myself a “margarita night regular”. Tequila, good conversation, and a fun environment? Hell yeah. If you have yet to experience a night at Thornton’s, you’re missing out. Bring your friends – even if you’re not 21, just go for the wings – and enjoy yourselves. Thanks for giving us broke college students a place to make so many memories! Cheers to only a few Thornton’s Thursdays left of the school year!
