This laid-back neighborhood tap provides exactly what the locals are looking for: cheap eats and drinks. A sometimes-changing selection of 25-plus bottled beers accompanies a food menu of thin-crust pizza, burgers and bar munchies such as quesadillas and wings. Eight plasma TVs let sports fans keep tabs on their teams.
