But glad I found out! I'm a Gen X guy that grew up in the bars of Milwaukee and this place felt like home. Pool table. Low lighting. Pabst on tap. Friendly staff. And the chicken tenders we had as a snack were awesome. Super crispy. Like Southern Style. The app for the juke box is a cool feature and we had a great time picking bar favorites. If you're looking for elevated gastronomy and mixology, there are plenty of other spots in Burlington. But if you're looking for like your beer cold and solid pub grub, you will like it here.

Great place to watch a game!…read more We came here to watch the Pats vs Texans game and even though we had perfect seats, and a great atmosphere, the food was just okay. One of the locals that we met gave us this recommendation. It was the perfect place to watch football. With the crowds screaming, and cheering, it was the best time. But, the food...not so much! We ordered the Mozz Cheese wedges that were not good at all. Crispy on the outside but barely any cheese on the inside. We also ordered chicken fingers with garlic parmesan which were not bad. I personally enjoyed the batter more than the chicken which was dry even with the ranch dressing. Service was great! Since we were right on top of the bar we had front row seats to the best game, decent beer but I just wish the food was better. If you are looking for just a place to watch sports, this is your place! They did have a full menu so maybe trying different food items might be better than what we ordered! Cheers~

Mule Bar is more than some divy ass place. Actually has a pretty good menu of some healthy things and not just greasy junk. The food includes a few vegan items as well. At lunch it wasn't that busy. It's pretty cramped inside so it still felt like it was, but we got a few bar seats. The drink menu was why we came, and there was good stuff on this. Lots of local beers on tap to choose from. Of course they make mules. It's about $12 for a cocktail. The coolest sounding one was the Peanut Butter Jelly Thyme. It's peanut butter washed bourbon with plum, strawberry, and thyme bitters. Kind of like drinking a sandwich. Speaking of sandwiches, they had these to eat too. It's about $13 to get one. They have burgers, and they have the Spicy Chicken Sandwich. Amazing fact: you can get a vegan version of it. They make the alternate with some kind of plant based patty. Get lots of great drinks and food. It's more of a bar, but the food is as good as at a restaurant. There's healthier options, including things okay for vegans and vegetarians.

Came late at night to this Irish pub in Burlington. Finnigan's actually isn't all that Irish. It's…read morebasically like a regular old pub. Has a lot of local beers on tap, along with more in bottles and cans. The bar is a lot quieter than many others. Basic looking old dive bar. It doesn't get as much of the college crowd. This is mostly for the locals. Beers are the main things to get. It's about $6 for a pint of local stuff. Among the local brewers is Fiddlehead. They also of course have plenty of Jameson and that kind of stuff. Get lots of good local beers. It has quite a few, a crap ton on tap to choose from. There's no food, but you probably wouldn't want to eat anything made here though.

First thing to know: this place is a sandwich shop by day, cocktail lounge by night. Second thing to know: make sure you REALLY love meat. The deli: I honestly don't know what to say...but I will anyway! First off, they offer about 12 regular sandwiches, half of them hot and half of them cold. They also have specials and make your owns. Keep in mind that all sandwiches can be hot (or cold I'm guessing!). One thing is that most sandwiches have minimal veg ingredients but it's definitely worth it. Staff-wise, all the guys (and yes they were all men when I visited) were really nice and helpful. Definitely ask their thoughts if you can't decide!! On my visit, I ordered their spin on a Cuban and...daaang! The sandwich weighed AT LEAST 2 lbs!!! What's more, it was mostly meat! This is the first sandwich that I have enjoyed an appropriate bread to meat ratio. I mean this thing was severely pregnant with meat! Whew! Honestly, I probably could have saved half of it for lunch but it was so good that I ate all of it. In a separate visit, the cocktail lounge was very posh in an old school speakeasy jazz club type of way. All of the menus are glued to actual books (is that legal??) and they have a great cocktail list. Their chocolate cake is excellent as well! The room is divided into a music room and the bar area. You can still see the music but it was nice to be divided if you wanted to talk vs listen to music. Overall: the sandwich will hold you over for a week (or at least the day!) and the cocktails are great!
