The Independent features beer-friendly dishes such as a bratwurst plate with homemade purple sauerkraut.
From Brian Ries,
Creative Loafing, Dec. 30, 2010:
"Chef Christopher Tolan’s menu at the Independent’s beer bar outpost in Seminole Heights is loaded with food that goes with the brews on tap: bratwurst and pretzels, cheese and dips. But unlike most beer bars — unlike most expensive restaurants, for that matter — Tolan has a deep understanding of each utterly simple dish and adds the necessary touches to elevate the food far beyond what you’d expect."
Beer and wine available. Serving breakfast, lunch and dinner daily.
"... a grilled cheese that will blow your mind, with molten Gouda on rye bread with pears sauteed in honey and five-spice."
