Hourglass Tavern

This vintage hole-in-the-wall has a fun, charming staff that knows how to get patrons in and out in an hour—yet it’s no problem to stay and take your time over a grilled chicken club sandwich or penne with mascarpone, gorgonzola, sweet and hot Italian sausage, marinara sauce and pecans. Upstairs is the dark and cozy Bettibar, serving the same menu. The kitchen closes at midnight most nights (later on weekends, earlier on Mondays and Tuesdays), but drinks go on until 4am.
