Price Description

“It’s the place people come to when they don’t want to go out,” muses the barman at this dimly lit pub decorated with antique liquor signs, stained glass and a fireplace. In between games of pool, patrons request wings, burgers and fajitas, or—if they’re in the mood for something more—a choice from the Best of Britain section: bangers, beans and mash, or perhaps the house specialty, a Guinness steak–and–mushroom pie. Full-bodied British brews Kilkenny, Boddingtons, Tennents and Strongbow liven up the usual draft offerings. Mains $6.59–$16.
