Window shopping in the village area dragged us into this chain pub and grill this week. Nestled between and across other popular beer gardens and Turkish restaurants doesn't put a damper on business here during the weekends. However, during the amazing happy hour on a Wednesday, finding a booth in this heavily wooded pub was no problem. Starting off with an import beer in a glass the size of my head for 3.75 and some buffalo and sweet chili garlic wings was a wise decision. The meat on the wings tasted a bit as if they had been defrosted and popped in the microwave a few times but the sauce made up for it. Generously covered in a vinegar spicy buffalo sauce that made my upper lip melt (in a good way) and the sweet chili garlic sauce with a hint of citrus zest made me look forward to the rest of the meal. My boyfriend decided to start of with a caesar salad which was a bad decision. It was drenched in an extremely thick mayonnaise dressing and I remember the words "well at least you can't mess up croutons" being said before the soggy bread was tasted. I would like to say though that after a few of those happy hour beers, I'm sure a few customers would be willing to overlook a few things. Shortly after our swim in the dressing, our burgers came. The big English burger was cooked to a perfect medium rare with crispy bacon, an over medium fried egg and the usual veggies gently placed on top. The meat was juicy and the side of fries were seasoned well. Soon after I cleaned my entire plate, I found out they have a 3 dollar burger Monday nights and my heart skipped a beat.So, while strolling around pop in and get a burger and beer at Baker St. Pub & Grill and I doubt you'll regret it. If you do, keep drinking.

Or at least avoid the salad!
