Presidents Bar & Grille

Following more than a year of renovations, the Presidents Pub is open for lunch, dinner, drinks and glimpses of local history at 88 N. Main St., where the Ernie’s Freestyle bar previously operated.

There are 24 taps dispensing mostly craft beers, but there also are bottled and canned brews, and drink selections that don’t have a foamy head. Beverage director Steve Kowalczuk assures these will not be the standard mixed drinks of today.

“Our focus is on pre-Prohibition-style cocktails, the purest way to make cocktails. The focus will be more on spirits and will be less sweet,” he said.
