Pub & Kitchen Is Coming

The former Chaucer’s at 20th and Lombard is well on its way to being transformed into Pub & Kitchen and shockingly, it’s right on schedule. The new bar and restaurant by Gayle/Rae alum Ed Hackett and chef “Johnny Mac” MacDonald who gained notice at Snackbar is set to host its friends and family night this week and its initial menu is posted on the freshly painted facade.

The beer menu will be a bit of a departure from the hops bombs and Tripel heavy lists that dot the city’s well-loved beer landscape. The beer list will feature several lower alcohol session beers, perfect timing as the New York Times just featured low-alcohol beers (don’t read as low taste) last week.
