This cozy basement-level pub has three rules: “No standing. No TVs. No martinis.” The result is a warm neighborhood bar that bustles with conversation. Red-brick walls, Tiffany-style lamps, and shelves stocked with beer bottles create a classic tavern feel. Communal wooden tables make meeting your neighbor easy, and the knowledgeable staff is happy to guide patrons through the long list of beers—including the rare and potent Urbock 23°, rationed out one per customer.
