  1. A

    Winking Lizard Tavern

    This hugely popular pub-grub outlet, named for its caged iguana, is a logical downtown stop before or after a sporting event (Cleveland is a serious jock town with three modern downtown sports venues).

  2. B

    Moose's Tooth Pub & Pizzeria

    An Anchorage institution serving 18 custom-brewed beers including monthly specials, and 50 gourmet pizzas.

    Chuck's Waterfront Grill & Endless Summer Bar Café

    For someplace dressier than Brophy Brothers, reserve a table in the nautical-theme dining room or outside overlooking the sailboats. Come between 17:00 and 18:30 for around US$15 to around US$17 sunset dinner specials, such as an 8oz steak or grilled salmon. Upstairs at the publike Endless Summer, the scene is Jack Johnson-casual (and cheaper), with fish-and-chips, burgers, billiards and beer.

    Sink

    Waiters bob and weave under the low-slung, graffiti scrawled ceiling of the Sink, a Hill classic that's been around since 1923. Colorful characters cover the dimly lit, cavernous space – a scene almost worth a visit itself. Almost. Once you've washed back the legendary Sink burger with a slug of a local microbrew, you'll be glad you stuck around.

    Union Street Public House

    Gas lamps out front welcome tourists and locals into this spacious taproom for frosty brews, raw-bar delights and nightly dinner specials. Inside, the atmosphere is equally inviting: a wide bar, heavy wooden furniture and exposed brick provide equal parts retro-and-warm atmosphere.

  6. Chair 5 Restaurant

    The kind of bar and restaurant skiers love after a long day on the slopes. It features more than 60 beers, including a dozen on tap, gourmet pizzas, big burgers and a lot of blackened dishes like blackened halibut tacos.

    Kona Brewing Company

    Locals and tourists alike crowd around the bright, noisy bar for handcrafted brews at the Big Island's first microbrewery. Specialty ales include Big Wave Golden, which blends traditional pale and honey malts, and liliko'i (passion fruit) Wheat. Try the four-beer sampler. Diners enjoy salads and thin-crust pizzas from a stone oven, on a torch-lit patio surrounded by leafy plants. This place packs, so reserve ahead and anticipate limited parking.

  8. Norfolk Pub & Restaurant

    Norfolk Pub & Restaurant claims the ‘widest selection of the finest beers in the world, ’ which we can’t confirm, but they do indeed serve excellent suds, especially those hailing from Belgium and England. Happily, their solids stand up to their liquids – smart pub grub with some twists. Try the spicy crab cakes with Thai chili sauce ($15.50). Take note of the chair made of antlers in the corner.

    Phantom Canyon Brewing Co

    In an old exposed warehouse building saved from the wrecking ball in 1993, this local brewery serves a variety of pints and American cuisine in a casual atmosphere with wood floors and furnishings, and an antique bar.

    The appetizers can be large enough for a meal, happy-hour pints of house-made blondes, IPAs and stouts are just $2.50 and the downstairs dining room is family-friendly. Locals flock to the upstairs billiards room at night.

    Del Churro Saloon

    It serves giant, inexpensive margaritas and delicious pub grub (try a burger or the cheese stuffed peppers) – it’s no wonder Governor Bill Richardson chooses to dine here. Inside the Inn of the Governors hotel, this popular pub is an atmospheric place with copper-topped tables, lots of vegetation and a blazing fire in the winter. In summer the patio opens up and tables spill onto the sidewalk. It serves food well into the night.

    Colonel Brooks' Tavern & Island Jim's Crab Shack

    This friendly bar fills with regulars at lunchtime and happy hour. In the wood-paneled dining room, it serves pub grub and Southern fare. Live jazz bands play in the evenings. If you are feeling tropical, head to the tiki bar next door. Romp in a palm tree-shaded sandpit or sip umbrella drinks on the outdoor deck. Try the 'Kick Ass Margarita - hot and spicy, cold and icy.' Boogie down to live music on Wednesday evenings. Life is good, mon.

  13. Maui Brewing Company

    This microbrewery sports a classy pub atmosphere with a glass wall overlooking the brewing operation. The food goes way beyond the usual pub menu, with oysters on the half shell, Cajun crab cakes and raspberry-glazed duck. Beers range from the light, crisp Honolua lager to Wild Hog, a robust, full-bodied black stout with a creamy finish - sample them all with six 3oz glasses ($6). Live music nightly.

  14. Oak Creek Brewing Company

    Beer-lovers will want to make the pilgrimage to this microbrewery, which has been racking up the medals at various beer festivals for ages. The nutty brown ale packs a punch, while the Hefeweizen is a fabulous post-trail refresher. They pair well with the gastropub fare, including delicious spicy wings. There’s a more upscale (and touristed) outpost at Tlaquepaque village.

    Waimea Brewing Company

    It resembles a suburban mall joint but the open-air plantation building and swaying coconut trees are pleasant and the island-inspired pub food is tasty. Two creative uses of 'ahi poke: a seared poke wrap and a sushi roll filled with poke and flash-fried. As for the US's westernmost microbrewery's beers, aficionados find them only passable.

    Beaver Street Brewery

    Perfect on a chilly night, grab a pint of hoppy Rail Head Red and plan your next day’s adventure by the pot-bellied stove. Grub is burger, pizza and sandwiches kicked into high gear – margarita chicken anyone? The attached billiard room with its heavy wooden bar stays open till 1am (2am on weekends). Cool beer garden with mountain views in summer.

    Red Onion

    Open since 1892, this saloon has been recently renovated with a certain mountain bistro flair. The fusion menu has a brainy side, starring mango and brie quesadillas, and grilled lamb chops in a habanero preserve, plus you've gotta love a joint that serves chicken and waffles for (late) breakfast. The kitchen stays open well into the night.

    Ford's Filling Station

    The 'Ford' in question is Ben Ford (yup, son of Harrison) and he'll fill you up in his lively gastropub favored by a chatty, boozy crowd. Flatbreads are toasted to perfection, the fish and chips have the lightness of tempura and the vegetarian polenta cake is a symphony of textures and flavors. Only the noise level needs some fine-tuning.

    Fiasco's Dinner Show

    Fiasco's Dinner Show has so much going on at once, it's hard to concentrate on where the next surprise is coming from. Sets fall apart, actors throw tantrums and then the show goes downhill from there - all in good fun, of course, or at least we think so. Great curry and traditional pub grub selection. Kids are free on Thursdays.

    Doc Water's Pub

    If the Hangar doesn't put you close enough to the water head next door where you can grab an outside table complete with seagulls. Dinner is served until 01:00, but this is a better place to linger in the late afternoon sun drinking beer and devouring the pub's Big Island burger (teriyaki sauce, pineapple salsa and Swiss cheese).

    Silver Peak Restaurant & Brewery

    Casual and pretense-free, this place hums with the chatter of happy locals settling in for a night of microbrews and great eats. Also open for lunch and with a late-night snack menu plus a solid happy hour during the week, the Silver Peak will suit your needs at some stage. The house beers are worth stopping by for.

    Tavern on the Water

    Set at the end of the pier behind the Navy Yard, this understated tavern offers one of the finest views of the Boston harbor and city skyline. The food is not so memorable, but it’s a fine place to go to catch some rays on your face, the breeze off the water, and an ice cold one from behind the bar.

    Jonesy's EatBar

    This is a great place for a simple pub-style meal and a beer. This former high-end restaurant has been reborn as a gastropub with an excellent select wine list. There's live music several nights a week, a pool table and a lovely outdoors seating area. The crowd is eclectic and the wait staff are friendly.

    Market Street Public House

    This dark wood-paneled pub is a friendly refuge from the noise and lights of the District. There's a great selection of homemade microbrews and regulars' beer steins hang on the wall. The menu has salads, burgers and sandwiches as well as heartier 'pub fayre' like shepherd's pie and fish 'n' chips.

    Morino Grill

    This cafeteria-style establishment in a barnlike structure beside the visitor center is the only eatery within the park. It has burgers, paninis and small pizzas, as well as seafood chowder and reindeer stew. When we were there it was a madhouse, and staff were in a less-than-pleasant mood.

    Lost & Found Saloon

    The service is as friendly as the omelettes and burritos are awesome (which is to say, very) at this cute little Wynwood spot, the sort of saloon where microbrews are on tap and the wine list reads like a year abroad. Our only request: more burrito, gentlemen; portions were a little small.
