In Short
Rustic in style and rich with Derschang's signature scene-making ambience, the Capitol Hill pub evokes a distinct Anglophile angle. Modeled after classic British pubs, with long communal tables, roughly finished wood plank floors, and an exhaustive European beer selection, the space manages to give off both a working class welcome and a upwardly mobile urban energy.

Great Happy Hour prices! The staff is attentive and friendly. The only drawback is that it is getting more and more crowded. I've been going to this same location for the past 10 years and it has been several different restaurants/bars during that time, it has NEVER been so packed EVER (especially on a Monday night? Who would have thought??). Anyway, the food is pretty good although a bit odd (gastro-pub). I do with they had more appetizers. All in all, I love this place and go there frequently after work.

FINALLY, some unique foods....we split a burger which was nice and charcoly-crusty all around....and the poutine and the devils on horseback. We were STUFFED. the poutine was great, it sounds more gut-busting than it actually was. the devils on horseback were rich and tiny, a good cut to the other fried foods. I'll definelty be back. the booths are comfy.

I can't put my finger on it, but something about Smith weirds me out/annoys me. Maybe because its trying so hard to be obviously cool, with all the taxidermy on the walls and the trying-to-be-offbeat bar menu (I mean seriously, duck tongues??). And the ceilings are really high, so it doesnt have the coziness of King's or Linda's. That said, I still end up here all the time and I never have a bad night. It's a pretty decent bar. And they have Leffe on tap. Just avoid the weirder menu items and go for the stellar burger.

On the Menu:
The menu is suitably hearty fare: fried duck leg, pork sandwiches, and plenty of sinful small plates, including poutine (French fries with gravy and cheese curds) and "Devils on Horseback" (dates stuffed with blue cheese and wrapped in bacon)
Know Before You Go:
If quiet conversation is on your agenda, this won't be an ideal destination---the high-ceilinged space's acoustics are booming.
On the Menu:
The menu is suitably hearty fare from chef Elliot Guthrie, playing on pub basics like salted cod fritters and braised pork shank.
