Blind Tiger Pub

My husband and I went on our own pub tour and made one of our stops at  BTP.  GREAT draft beer selection and awesome beer garden out back . Don't miss out on the "hook game" out back. Totally addicting!

Great food, good price and the staff was super nice. Check out the back patio...a hidden treasure

Yes, I am indeed a fan of the Blind Tiger Pub.

As others have noted, the main selling point of this "divey" pub is the epic back courtyard. The space is huge with an outdoors bar, numerous walkways and arches, overflowing foliage, and seemingly endless nooks and crannies that you can settle into and enjoy a good beer and some good times. Add to that the string lights above and (hopefully when you're visiting) a star filled sky, and you've got yourself a great evening.

Prior to reaching the patio, the inside of the pub isn't too shabby either with two large spaces and some comfy big couches towards the back. There definitely is a dive type feel to this joint, though the crowd doesn't really seem to exemplify such a spot (ie, not an abundance of hipsters...at least not normally). In general, the patrons here seem pretty laid back and friendly, although perhaps a bit further along in age than you would expect. Service can be very variable, and definitely leans towards the lack thereof end of the spectrum when it's hopping in here (as seems to happen pretty frequently). However, the bartenders always seem to be pretty cheerful and more than willing to grab you a draft even if you're not a good looking girl.

In my opinion, the food is definitely a step above dive bar status with pretty decent offerings of appetizers, salads, soups, wraps, sandwiches, and tacos. Portions are reasonable and prices won't break the bank. Personally, I'm a fan of the sweet potato fries and the black bean burger (you gotta pretend to be healthy sometimes, right?). In that vein, they also have vegan options available for many of their dishes (or at least that's what the menu says). The craft beer selection (in draft, bottle, and can form) is decent although not overwhelming and probably doesn't stack up to some other spots in the area. They do offer a few local brews, however, and that is always a good thing in my book. Of note, the drafts on tap at the outside and inside bars always differ, but the bartenders don't seem to mind getting you a pint from the station that they aren't manning should you request such a drink.

All in all, Blind Tiger Pub is definitely a solid spot to grab a bite and a pint, and believe me when I say that the patio never disappoints!
