"The Old Gold has been slinging burgers and Tillamook cheese fries in the Overlook neighborhood for more than a decade. The cocktail menu is impressive to the point of almost being intimidating — there are six variations on an Old Fashioned — but everything is a sure bet. For sober friends who want to hang out at this friendly watering hole, tasty zero-proof drinks like the Lady Luck with rosemary syrup and peach bitters or a ginger beer-based cooler that combines black walnut bitters and lime do the trick. There’s also a Dry January special that combines cinnamon, orange juice, cocoa, and coffee in a cold-weather drink that will keep sober curious diners alert." - Emily Venezky, Janelle Lassalle, Thom Hilton
