Field's Bar and Grill

Fields is actually divided into two restaurants. Upstairs is the steakhouse with salad bar, and downstairs it the bar and grill. The word "steakhouse" could imply a certain level of class, something I try to avoid. So let's check out the downstairs.

The Looks
This place looks pretty much like a bar. Or a wannabe Applebee's with misc. crap all over the wall. There's a spinning boat propeller thing hanging from the ceiling... weird. But the booths are comfy as can be. There's TVs all around, so you can avoid talking to whoever you brought with.

The Cost
There a sign in the windows saying the place has lunch specials as low as $4.79. There is one item on the menu at that price, and that's the plane Jane hamburger. Most everything you'd actually want is going to be around 7 to 9 dollars. Pizzas will run you $11 and up.

The Grub
What you'd expect. Burgers, fries, onion rings, chicken sandwiches, shrimp, salads, soups. I had the hot club on a tasty roll. It was pretty good. They have these things called Feild's Chips, kinda like kettle chips. Avoid them. The pizzas are damn tasty, but are probably more then a normal person could eat.

Update (September 2009)
Sadly, Fields closed it's doors in September. Another one bites the dust.

Spinning boat propeller? I believe that is a wooden, fixed pitch, propeller that a single engine light aircraft would use...

However, I have to agree, stay away from the Field's Chips.
