Group Dining Gatherings
A casual Loop bar-and-grill built for pre-theater and after-work pints, where fries come as the classic side with sandwiches and fish & chips. The win is comfort and speed—keep the order tight, get fries on the table early, and treat it like a reliable neighborhood stop rather than a destination meal.
Must-Try Dishes:
Fish & chips (fries), Steak sandwich with fries, Buffalo cauliflower
What makes it special: No-fuss bar food where fries stay a steady side option.
