Pub/Grub Crawl - Downtown: Tap and Grind, Super Rico and Therapy Brew Bar (Closed)

I went to these place Friday night.

Tap and Grind - This place is on West Central across from the unnecessarily expensive Fire Station. It has a decent selection of craft beer. It has been open two years. It has a small interior and a patio. It was pretty full. Kind of a me-too place at this point. I'm sure it was a bigger draw when it opened.

Super Rico - The Que Rico food truck people opened this place around a year ago. It has a bigger menu (perros, pinchos, patacones and arepica) than the burger-centric truck. I had an "original" burger (for old times sake) for $6. It was still an overstuffed Colombian style burger. They took their time on it. Still good. Go and see what those other dishes are and are all about. It's a small space with a patio next to Tap.

Therapy Brew Bar - This place is near the lake on East Washington. It was a wine bar. It really has just subbed out wine for beer. It looks the same. Still upscale. It was totally empty. Nice bartender. I felt bad for him. They have food too.

I was going to try Hanson's Shoe Repair at NV for you, but, they really do make you dial their secret number to reserve a spot. I wanted to be fresh for a beach day, so, I called it a night.
