Don't spend much time in watering holes these days. One of my favorite is this quiet little place that was right around the corner from work. Twenty years ago, I courted the woman who would become my bride by meeting her there after work for drinks. It was perfect. They kept bringing free bowls of pretzels, the beer was fairly cheap, and it was one of the few quiet places around. You could actually talk.
Cafe Mozart. It's got a deli in front with specialty food for all the German expats. Restaurant/bar in back.
