This lively 8,500 square foot restaurant and bar is home to professional types stopping in for a drink or early dinner during the week. On weekends it’s all about the beer (more than 30 to choose from) and specialty martinis (18 different varieties). No one will blame you for stopping in solo for a Lemon Louie Martini (Barcardi Limon and lemonade) or a Chocolate Dream (Smirnoff Vanilla Twist, DeKuyper creme de cocoa and cream and a chocolate stick). The beer selection includes Blue Moon, Red Stripe, Bass and Newcastle. The menu falls a notch above a typical bar menu and includes pastas, salads, burgers, sandwiches and tacos. Try the spinach ravioli or the Southwestern chicken tacos.

Average cost: $10-$20
