A deserted stretch of Northwest Highway isn't what you would call charming surroundings, but it is the kind of stretch that needs a cozy escape. Raised booths flanking a fireplace facilitate intimate conversations over pints of imported ale, while the battered old bar encourages drinking with the friendly blue-collar crowd. That Guinness getcha hungry? Dig into menu highlights like shepherd's pie.
