Hot bartenders and waitresses wearing ass-less chaps with their panties: It seems like a gimmick. But it’s just one of the things that keep guys coming back to this Westminster sports bar. Well, that and live music on the weekends, a decent-sized checkered dance floor, cheep beer, pool, karaoke and a large patio. A working-class […]

In a world where fast-casuals are proliferating faster than rabbits, Honor Society Handcrafted Eatery stands out from the crowd. The restaurant opened in the summer of 2015 behind Union Station, and with long community tables, whitewashed planks on the walls, loud music and barrels as light fixtures, it strikes a trendy balance between industrial and […]

There’s not really a Jake behind Jake’s Sports & Spirits (which changed its name from Jake’s Food & Spirits in the fall of 2015). This neighborhood joint’s name was actually inspired by the abstract notion of a guy, maybe a Jake, who everyone knows and likes. Open for lunch, dinner and late-night dining, Jake’s comes […]
