Located in the Highlands, Occidental Bar is the neighbor and unlikely sibling of upscale Williams & Graham. Proudly punk and low key, Occidental gives dives a good name with its savvy bartenders, excellent cocktails and all the punk tunes you love. Think dive with just the right amount of class. For game watching, Occidental has large-screen TVs and if you happen to be a fan from New York, this has become the place to watch the Giants, Rangers, Knicks, Mets and Yankees. Occidental's well-curated beer list includes options from local and national craft breweries, and while the menu has some familiar bar options such as burgers, the food is elevated here with local and organic ingredients and there are vegetarian menu items as well. Kimchi Tots? You bet.
