Barnacle

Compact downtown oyster bar and late-night pub pouring rotating drafts, house cocktails, and a small food menu of oysters, paninis, sausage, and chili.

Best when you want oysters and cocktails without committing to a full seafood dinner; the food menu is small, so think drinks-first with a few strong bar bites.
