A venue which was one of the 1st to adapt to craftbeer (in the mid-1990s). It will have numerous beers which everyone in your assemblage will enjoy. ☞ Free wi-fi.

Come during the early afternoon. Bring Rover (yes, he’s allowed here). Buy a stogie. Fill a rocks glass. Sit outside. This is what it means to be a man, not to mention man’s best friend.
