Stopped here based on the high TA rating. Breakfast was perfect- good coffe, thick toast, great omlette- all generous portions and cheap. I strongly recommend the "Sympathy For The Devil" chili made with beef chunks instead of hamburger. Awesome. Service fast and friendly. Practically empty on a Sunday morning- I have no idea why... more

I ahve been to Beggar's before and have always left a little disappointed. While the food always sounded good, it never lived up to my expectations.

I love this restaurant, I really do. Their food is gourmet, and everything is delicious. Their baked brie is always a favorite. It's also a great bar, and a perfect place to have dinner with friends and then stay all night. more

Good food, somewhere between hippie and yuppie, leaning more yuppie every year. Great service and a friendly, dark atmosphere. Wine is half-price on Wednesday nights, and the place gets insanely crowded and so smoky you can smell it throughout the restaurant... but if you go for dinner, the drinkers aren't there yet, and it's a good deal. more
