Longman & Eagle

There will be strategically scruffed dudes, waifish women in Grandma sweaters, flannel as far as the eye can see. This place is owned in part by the Empty Bottle guys, after all. But these are hipsters who know hospitality and a chef (Jared Wentworth) who knows pub grub: He turns the quizzical texture of beef tongue into a hash alternately crisp and fatty, he deep-fries clams to perfection; he presents an ultra-rich banana-chocolate bread pudding for dessert. While the gluttony of some of the dishes can throw things off balance, enough cheap whiskey (dozens are available for three bucks) can cut through just about anything.
