Get on over to Brit's Pub on Nicollet Mall, and no matter the season, you'll find a lot of happy people enjoying a festive atmosphere and a pint -- or two. While the weather is still frightful, play pool, enter trivia contests, listen to live bands, or watch a variety of sports (rugby and World Cup soccer are Brit's favorites). Brit's has a myriad of corners with comfy leather chairs for chatting. In the summer, head outside. Enjoy the front patio or the veranda, or try lawn bowling.

Although at Brit's they say 'Cod Save the Queen', the menu is much more than fish and chips. It even includes High Tea most afternoons (reservations required). Head on over for a great time any time of the year.
