Editorial Review for For Pete's sake – by Lauren McCutcheon

In Short
This isn't your average Coors Light franchise: The front door's pair of decorative wrought iron handles, when pulled, unveil a blond-wood interior and a gas fireplace, while the drink menu features local microbrews and better-known bottled beverages. Baseball and Monday Night Football drink specials are complemented by college drinks specials on Saturdays. The menu--available for lunch and dinner--focuses on finger foods and small plate dishes: burgers, pasta, meat loaf and grilled chicken.

I moved to Queen Village 2 years ago. I always go here for happy hours and great food. order anything on the menu, they are all great. The place get really packed on Friday night and Saturday night. But you don't have to wait long. Waitress will do whatever it takes to get you seated as soon as they can. Only one problem that i don't like about is you can't sit outside for happy hour price anymore. It's at the bar only. I want to be able to sit outside and drink beers but now we can't do that.

Pros: Food, service

Cons: crowded, can't sit outside for happy hour price

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

I live in the neighborhood but only started going to Pete's during this football season. The food is excellent, the staff is so nice and the atmosphere is very chill. The Sunday bartender makes the best bloody mary's. I am a bar manger in the city so the last thing I want to do on my one day off is go to a bar. Pete's has not only impressed me, but has become my local watering hole.

Pros: creavtive food specials

Cons: waitstaff can be a little slow but they make up for it in kindness
