What to Drink: In addition to an excellent beer selection (rotating drafts, plus bottles and respectable cans), two bar taps gush with local Westport Rivers wine. If you’re thinking cocktails, The Scottish Play--10-year Laphroaig Scotch, Cynar, Aperol, Drambuie--is consistently exceptional.
Save Money: Several plates are available in smaller or larger portions, with proportionally scaled prices, including the Caesar salad and Painted Hills steak tartare.
Where to Sit: Pick your poison: The tucked-away patio is grand on a warm day, the sun-drenched upstairs seating is perfect for a quick bite, and the cavernous downstairs bar and lounge is best for carousing with a group.
When to Go: A late-night bar menu is available until midnight every day, and brunch is served on weekends.
Fun Fact: Russell House Tavern is part of the Grafton Group of restaurants, including Grafton Street, Temple Bar, Redline and Irish Village.
