With half-priced appetizers 3-7 p.m. Monday through Friday, and more than 40 beers on tap, TCB is my pick for best happy hour. Don’t expect a tiny, bite-sized appetizer during happy hour. No, these plates are piled high with your choice of pub nachos, artichoke dip, hummus, or my personal favorite — the Catalina fingers (fried chicken breast tenders in a spicy “pale ale” batter). I like to pair it with a wheat ale or the “Bees N’ Berry” blackberry and honey ale, if my sweet tooth is tingling. TCB’s is tasty and affordable for those early evening snack attacks.
