The rest is brand new, although with a lived-in feel.
Kitchen offerings range from chicken curry — made popular in Ireland via its ties to England — and Guinness beef stew, which uses the country’s most iconic ale in its preparation. The pub also offers more than a dozen beers on draft and boasts a massive showpiece bar, visible from any point in the building.We popped in Wednesday to sample The Cottage’s first lunch service, choosing the spinach artichoke dip and chicken curry with rice.
Pub patrons who prefer outdoor seating can post up at either the front or back patio, although the Broadway road noise may make it difficult to carry on a conversation in the case of the former. The considerably smaller back patio is outfitted with small iron tables, each equipped two chairs — ideal for a cozy canoodle between lovebirds.So many restaurants, so little time.
