    The pumpkin mac & cheese packs five cheeses (goat, Manchego, brie, Parmesan & cheddar), oven-roasted pumpkin & sweet potato purée into a neat lil' skillet. It's a must get. Read more

    The Tap Room - 50 feet of bar, 32 taps worth of hard-to-find US craft beers (Oskar Blues Dales Pale Ale, Stillwater Cellar Door Saison, Schneider Hopfen-Weisse Weizenboc etc.) What more do you need? Read more

    Diverse selection of beer, both craft and import options on tap and in bottles. This bar also plays host to a number of beer events, so check their website for updates.

    Wipps' favorite burger of 2011 was at The Black Squirrel because of the gooey, seemingly never-ending glob of Chimay cheese that topped the perfectly cooked medium-rare burger. Read more

    Great tap list. DJ had random 90s and 00s mixes on and its not crowded for near midnight on a Saturday in AdMo. Good times with a small group.

    In 2010, the owner posted an anti-immigrant rant on their blog, saying "Too many come here to ply their illicit trades, take up with gangs and live in the shadow of polite society."

    The beer selection is extensive. But, once you find the one you like chances are they ran out of it.
