With just a modicum of Irish memorabilia, County Cork is a more convincing Irish pub than most around town. This small, comfortable bar and restaurant features church pew booths, windows that open to the street, a weathered bar, a small stage and a dart game area.

The minimalist approach plays out in County Cork's menu as well. You'll find terrific house-roasted turkey and corned beef or Reuben sandwiches, fish and chips, Scotch eggs (deep-fried hard-boiled eggs encased in sausage), bangers and mash and a ploughman's platter. There's also less-expensive dishes like soup with soda bread, potato salad and classic burgers (which can be upgraded with mushrooms, onions and peppers; or a blanket of Tillamook cheddar or Swiss.)

Unfortunately, the new owners discontinued the horseradish/buttermilk dressing that made side salads at County Cork a unique culinary pleasure. But there are 22 beers on the bar's brew list (domestic to European) available as half-pints, imperial pints or by the pitcher. Usually packed most weeknights, there's a charming patio to handle the overflow during good weather. -- Jo Ostgarden
