"Whether you’re looking for somewhere to host your office holiday party or getting a bunch of your cousins together for your niece’s third quinceañera, Standard Tap is one of the best places to celebrate. The gastropub has a great rooftop deck, plenty of rotating beers, and a fireplace for when winter hits. Split a few shared plates, like the grilled octopus, seared scallops, or pork belly drenched in a gochujang glaze, and make sure to get at least one chicken pot pie to share (or 10 if you bring the whole company)." - candis mclean, alison kessler
