The Scene
Beer paraphernalia occupies almost every inch of space, while the large wood pillars and long, gray planks create a wharf-like atmosphere. It's this tranquil down-by-the-sea vibe that'll have you ordering beers by the bucket while lounging on the spacious patio.

The Draw
Make sure to bring at least one friend; this isn't the spot to be drinking alone. It is, however, a great place to go with the golf buddies. Eight Golden Tee games guarantee you'll never have to vie for elbow space while gunning for that elusive eight-under-par. It gets busy about 6pm on weekdays and stays that way long into the evening. The jukebox offers the standard classic rock fare, but the White Stripes and Strokes selections also prove it can be loyal to the past without neglecting the contemporary.
