Yes, that Ben Wicks, and there are a couple of his cartoons around the place, but don’t worry, it’s not a tribute bar. He owned the place. It’s a cozy English pub with a separate dining room. In the dining room, grab the front window table with the huge swivel chairs and order fish and chips ($9.15) and a pint. They have more upscale food, but their fish and chips are great. On the pub side, sidle up to the bar, or grab a table – it’s all pretty casual and friendly. On the weekends, they have live entertainment and lively patrons. I like it for a mid-afternoon meeting over a beer where you are likely to have privacy from eavesdroppers. cheapeats contributor - AEC
