PERMANENTLY CLOSED

Republic in Downtown East is the upscale answer to your average local dive or pub. In the confines of its open brick walls and stained-glass windows, this spot serves up higher-end versions of typical bar food like burgers with white cheddar, fried eggs or duck, tacos and steak sandwiches. Don't come here if you're all about house cocktails, that's not really this place's deal. But with over 100 beers and ciders from all over the state and world, it'd be impossible to walk out unsatisfied.
