Billy Goat Tavern
You may know if from the “cheezborger” Saturday Night Live skit, but regulars at the original subterranean location are more likely to stop in for a beer and camaraderie first, and then opt for the mediocre cheezborger (“no fries—cheeps!”) to soak up the suds. Billy Goat remains a popular spot for journalists and locals looking to have an after-work cocktail—and none of those fancy craft cocktails or craft beers, mind you. Known for its surly service, the bartenders here are actually quite nice.
