Old Bag of Nails Pub   

Although it's about the size of a garage, this first branch of what's become a successful regional chain still retains its charm. A former hardware store, the aptly named Old Bags of Nails is cunningly decorated with more than 99 cans of beer on one wall, as well as nifty antiques and old photos. The menu has greatly expanded since the place opened in 1986, even though there's still lots of beer on tap to accompany imports and microbrews. Although the British-style fish-and-chips make it a destination stop for fans of cod, coleslaw and fries, this Old Bag has become famous for its burgers, which are made from USDA Black Angus beef. Cooked to order, they include the Pauly Burger, which is topped with grilled salami, Swiss and American cheese, and Italian dressing; the Rustic Burger, covered with melted crumbled bleu cheese and bacon; and Gaylord's Favorite, with bacon, cheddar and barbecue sauce. There are also soups, salads, seafood, steaks and other sandwiches, along with a wide array of starters both standard and unusual, in case you suddenly have a craving for -- get this -- beer-battered pickles.
