Every January, Hollywood's best and brightest, as well as some of the industry's smartest and skillful movie makers convene in Salt Lake City for the annual Sundance Film Festival. Strategically held a few weeks before the Golden Globes and the Academy Awards, Sundance sets the stage for the films that are poised for receiving awards and brings attention to those that should be.

The old world meets the very contemporary modern day at the Piper Down Pub. From hip hop and urban acts to Texas Hold'em and other entertainment, the diversity and attitude of everyone in the pub will have you coming back time and time again. There's also Throwback Thursday, where the DJ will spin your favorite Old School jams, and don't miss the hilarity of the Geeks Who Drink pub quiz and karaoke on Wednesday nights. Oh, and they've got a great menu and serve a delectable brunch on Saturdays and Sundays. Diverse? You bet...the fans of the Piper Down Pub wouldn't have it any other way.

Whether on business or on a romantic getaway, the Ellerbeck is one of Salt Lake's hidden treasures that won't stay a secret for too long.
