Mountain Rambler Brewery


Rows of picnic tables and a high ceiling give this spot a beer-gardeny feel. Its own beers are mixed in with a rotating selection of artisan brews, and there's live music several nights a week. Worth visiting for lunch or dinner for classic pub fare like burgers and bratwurst or more sophisticated dishes such as flatbread pizza ($9) and lamb empanadas ($5).

The outdoor tables fronting the parking lot are excellent spots to enjoy a meal or some of the homemade ice cream when the weather is nice.
