Walking distance from where you are, it tends to be kind of bar like atmosphere on weekends if you like that kind of thing. :-) The food is American and the burger and french fries are great.

Drinks & Nightlife

Upscale pub and supposedly best burgers around. Not somewhere to sit down and have a quiet meal. If you feel like a beer and burger, short walk ...it's a 'happening' place Fri. and Sat. nights.
