"Open for: Happy hour, dinnerPrice range: $$Birdietown opened a few months ago and already has become the new darling of Lakewood’s Birdtown neighborhood. This two-level, 12,000-square-foot destination combines a restaurant, two bars, and 18 custom-built holes of indoor mini-golf. Banish thoughts of a noisy, kid-filled playpen as this is a bespoke destination built for adults. The cocktails are top-flight, and James Beard semifinalist chef Jill Vedaa oversees the gastropub menu, which is approachable but elevated, including the chef’s signature white bean puree and calamari with coconut glaze. Best for: Date night." - Douglas Trattner
