Baker Street:
Remember a little Tom Cruise classic called Cocktail? You know, from back in the days before Scientology Boy was jumping on the couches and yelling at Matt Lauer? The dreamboat himself honed his sexy bartender act at Baker Street, where much of the 1988 movie was filmed. With dark wood and mirrors typical of most pubs, Baker Street is no “Cocktails and Dreams”—but what it’s lost in fluorescent-hued charm it’s gained in a lengthy pub menu and a healthy beer selection. Happy hour deals include 2-for-1 well drinks, and Wednesday’s pub quiz draws a good crowd.
