Yes, there's a bone marrow BLT, but this is also the rare Irish pub with multiple vegan options. Private Irish snug available and second floor event space. $5-$20.

The Coopers Tavern, 20 W. Mifflin St., is moving fast with its second-floor expansion. It should be open in early May, "in time for Craft Beer Week," says owner Peter McElvanna.
