The Wellesbourne has many leather bound books and smells of rich mahogany. They serve ritzy cocktails that bring lesser folks to their knees. Which is fine, because it's stumbling distance from home.

Best quasi-fast food burger joint. Build your own burger means you get exactly what you want, always. Try the sweet potato fries. Better yet, try them with chili, onions, and cheese. Mmmmm.
