Local 188

http://www.local188.com

We have all been to Local 188 in the past and really enjoyed our meals. We enjoyed it so much that paella became a favorite meal. We decided to stop by after LFK for more drinks and some food. Local 188 is a warm and inviting place. The couches and chairs are arranged such that you feel like your home. The staff is welcoming and friendly. They were very patient while we mixed and matched beer selections for our samplers. Great selection of beer. All the usual local suspects: Bunker, Bissell, Rising Tide and Allagash. The wine list is just as good. Wide selection from all the major regions.

We have the Chicken Pinchos which on skewers and marinated in coriander, citrus and garlic.
We also had the flatbread with roasted hummus. The flatbread was really big and had a healthy dollop of hummus.
