Featuring its own microbrew, this popular American restaurant also serves a huge array of Southern pub and barbecue favorites, including prime rib, fried catfish, and, yes, fried green tomatoes. Antique farming implements and Western décor (rough wood, red-and-white checkered tablecloths, and wagon wheel light fixtures) go well with the homey menu and cordial staff.
