Whoever said it's what's inside that counts never had a drink on the Blue Moose patio. This expansive outdoor eating-and-drinking area holds twice the patrons as the dining room does, and is often packed -- especially on cheap beer Thursdays. The selection of brews is just as big, and includes a brown ale called Moose Drool that's tastier than it sounds. When the weather turns blustery, heat lamps and fire pits will keep you warm, but you can also venture inside, where the rustic decor –- complete with snow boots, skis and the head of a bright blue, wild-eyed moose at the bar -- complete the hunting-lodge motif.
