Its rowdy neighbor, Mad River Bar & Grille, has bargoers queueing up for entry, but this friendly watering hole is worth giving up your spot in line. Dim and narrow, the pub sports candlelit tables, sociable regulars and enough pockets of space to accommodate everyone. Translation: No line…at least not yet.
