I find there's usually two things you find in each city: a Chinese restaurant and an Irish pub. There are a couple of Chinese restaurants here, but surprisingly no Irish pubs. But there is an English pub, with a good ol' English name: The Red Lion.
St. Patrick's Day rolls along, and of course we had to visit the pub. And have some Guinness - one of the few beers they sell here, though it's only available bottled and tastes completely different. I never thought I would, but I actually missed going to the pub.
The Red Lion is a small pub off Broad Street downtown. Inside, there's the requisite bar and red soft sofas and wooden tables. You could have been anywhere in the world, so long as you didn't look outside. They even had a guy playing a guitar in the corner, though it was a strange, eclectic mix of American pie, Elton John, and other random songs. I did have my Guinness though!
