DOWNTOWN. The wine and beer list at this cozy pub is rivaled only by the choice of mouth-watering sandwiches and gourmet salads. More than 60 beers are always on tap including micro-brewed American lagers and a variety of Belgian brews. Each champagne and wine is available by the glass, carafe or bottle. You won't want to stop with liquid refreshment. The grilled cheddar and havarti, and the grilled fresh mozzarella with Italian vegetables, each provide a sophisticated option to grilled cheese. The turkey with Brie and sun-dried tomatoes and the roast beef with Stilton are two other local favorites. Light eaters will want to sample the turkey Cobb salad or the grand baby spinach salad with bacon and hardboiled eggs. Smart-casual attire.

TIPPERARY. Prohibition was repealed in 1933 and Coleman's opened for business shortly after. Today Coleman's is a central New York destination for it's hearty and authentic Irish pub grub. Sample the Guinness beef stew or the Irish roasted chicken, followed by a slice of Bailey's Irish Cream cheesecake. Thursday through Saturday evenings, Coleman's keeps diners in their seats once the meal is over by staging live Celtic rock and Irish folk singers. Casual to smart-casual attire.

DOWNTOWN. Downtown workers in business suits dine beside leather-clad Harley riders at this ribs and barbecue joint. The Dinosaur is a Syracuse institution, beloved by all. Favorite "palate igniters" include the fried green tomatoes and the catfish strips. Lunchtime entrees include a pulled-pork sandwich platter served with macaroni salad and tomato and cucumber salad, while dinner diners tend to favor the pit-roasted chicken and ribs, served with your choice of two sides. The Dinosaur hosts live blues several nights a week—call ahead to find out who is performing and come prepared to have a few beers and enjoy the raucous atmosphere. Casual attire.

DOWNTOWN. Central New York's last remaining Depression-era cinema is still open for business. Famous architect Thomas Lamb designed the Landmark Theatre, and it opened in 1928. Visitors were wowed the moment they walked through the door by a massive chandelier originally designed for Cornelius Vanderbilt and the "Indo-Persian" murals and carvings. The theater became popular for its double bill of a movie and a live show. Despite the Depression and World War II, Syracuse audiences still flocked here to forget, for a few hours, the horrors of "real life." Then in the 1950s attendance began to slow. In 1977 a group of local investors rescued the foundering theater and got it listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Today, it still hosts concerts and plays, as well as offering tours of its majestic design and decorations. Visit the Web or call for an events calendar.
