Description

Formerly the Handle Bar and Grill, Downing Street has done away with the kitschy "bicycle bar" motif and turned into a neighborhood bar for sports fans and beer lovers. Quotes from the likes of A.A. Milne and Patrick McGinley line the menu and encourage people to drink from the vast selection of beers -- everything from local specialties like Oskar Blues and Left Hand to national and international brews. Happy hour runs from 10 p.m. until close and features $2 domestic drafts. If you're looking for an unpretentious watering hole within jogging or biking distance of Washington Park, Downing Street is the place to get down.
