SCENE: With seating on an outdoor patio, this is the perfect spot for a little alfresco lunch. The colorful walls and wraparound leather couches make for a decidedly swank retro feel.

EATS: The neoclassic pub fare is good and beer-friendly. Starters include mozzarella sticks and garlic fries. Try the organic Angus Mars burger with creamy Cambozola cheese, as well as individual pizzas with roasted red peppers, sweet caramelized onion, arugula and pesto.
