The Newes from America

Frommer's Review

The food is better than average at this subterranean tavern, built in 1742. The decor may be more Edwardian than Colonial, but those who come to quaff don't seem to care. Locals love the French onion soup. Beers are a specialty here. Try a rack of five esoteric brews, or let your choice of food -- from a wood-smoked oyster "Island Poor Boy" sandwich with linguiça relish to an 18-ounce porterhouse steak -- dictate your draft; the menu comes handily annotated with recommendations. Don't miss their seasoned fries, accompanied by a savory Southwestern dipping sauce.
