"If you’re looking for a bar with good food that isn’t exclusively full of undergrads, go to Bangers and Lace - it doesn’t have the let’s-do-a-beer-bong atmosphere you might be familiar with from other spots on college campuses. There’s a location in Chicago, and the one in Evanston has the same menu of bar food and sausages (with options like duck sausage and a crawfish andouille). It’s decorated like a British pub/upscale hunting lodge, and it’s a good place to get drinks and/or talk about your thesis over some bratwurst." - adrian kane
