Perfect for a casual lunch, catching up with friends after work, or first stop on a night out, Barrel Down is an inviting space and a welcomed source of energy to 7th street. Nothing adds a party atmosphere like a beer hall and with 40 craft beers to choose from (20 core/20 rotating), cocktails, wine and even Stumpington coffee, Barrel Down has got what you need. The menu is southern style with Asian flair – translation: burgers and sandwiches, small plates and sweets. Prices start at a $4 for a half order of hand cut fries and peak at $21 for steak and sweet potato dinner. Hours are 11a.m.-2a.m. with lunch being available till 4 p.m. Social hour is a 4p.m.-7p.m. affair and dinner is served from 4p.m. – midnight. It’s so good you just might not make it to your second stop. Photo Cinnia Finfer
