Nicole Errante: Head to Brit's for their regular trivia contests, held the first Tuesday/Wednesday of every month. Have a Guinness (on special during Trivia) while you are at it! Read more.
Mike Gerholdt: Get the Shepard's pie with a Guiness.
Sarah Malone: Brits has a great atmosphere, awesome locations to sit and yummy food and drinks!
Lapakko.com: A St. Partick's Day or Any Day must is to order a "Black and Brown" aka a "Black Castle" (Guinness & Newcastle). It's a euphoric event.
Jon Thompson: Great mussels, a hearty hummus/feta/pita plate, bangers & mash and an amazing scotch list. What more do you need?
Heavy Table: Order a single malt Scotch off the bar's extensive list -- if you've never had a Laphraoig 10, see if you like one of the smokiest, peatiest, most challenging Scotches out there.
Charlie: Come for breakfast. Order a Guinness, then go next store and order a double espresso to go. Come back to Anchor and your beer will be ready and you can pour the espresso in. Best breakfast beer around
Micah Spieler: Get take out (no wait for a table) and take it to Dangerous Man (where they have great beer).
Joe Siewert: Get the fish and chips, duh.

Shawn Seifert: The Wandering Star drink reminds me of Spritz Aperols from Italy. Fantastic!
Theresa: Brunch was excellent. I suggest the "farmers breakfast" with Apple-cinnamon French toast
City Pages: Voted Best Meatloaf by City Pages in 2012! Combining bison, pork, & beef- theres a complexity thats a little more appealing than meatloaf's usual "complexity." The warm meatloaf sandwich soothes souls
