Editorial Review for Flying Saucer – by Amanda Howe
The Scene
Wood paneling and mustard-colored walls are blanketed by vintage commemorative plates; the dim room crammed with comfy leather sofas and bistro tables and chairs. Thirsty patrons belly up to the bar and choose from more than 100 beers on tap. The after-work crowd is 30-something and mostly male, so single ladies may have better odds.
The Food
Pub grub is a plain, but satisfying, accompaniment to the main attraction--beer. The German platter starter is a smorgasbord of sausages and cheese. Pizza lovers will want to try one of the four specialty pizzas; pepperoni, garlic chicken, veggie and goat cheese. Carb counters can opt for the more slimming wrap sandwiches or field green salads.

Insider Tips
Where to SitThe enclosed patio's large windows are usually open to allow the breeze in and some of the loud music out.
What to DrinkBeer connoisseurs should not skip the Belgian selections, especially the Delirium Tremens.
The ExtrasHard-core beer drinkers can pay $14 to join the UFO Club, which entitles members to a free T-shirt and a chance to join the Ring of Honor for trying all the beers on the menu.

On nights when a Live Band plays here, the Flying Saucer charges a $3 cover at the door. If you do not carry cash (like me), you can leave your drivers license with the doorman and charge the $3 on your tab. DO NOT GIVE THE DOORMAN YOUR DRIVERS LICENSE! I have been to the Flying Saucer twice this year, and the doorman has "lost" my friend's DL both times. This past Saturday, I know two people who had their drivers license stolen at the front door. How can ID's disappear when they are given to a doorman and stuck in his pocket? Be aware that this restaurant is either monumentally incompetent, or they have a SCAM going on at the front door where they are selling ID’s.

I've driven past this bar for a number of years until last Saturday when I decided to see what all the fuss was about. Well, I wasn't particularly impressed. It takes more than a 100 different types of beer to impress me. The atmosphere sucked. The patrons were cold, aloof and unfriendly. The barmaid didn't even look good through my beer goggles. There were maybe three girls and a hundred guys. I thought I had maybe strayed into an all **male** establishment. Sure it looks cool, nice decor, giant wall of beer etc. but man it just wasn't any fun. I left early. And the UFO "club" is a joke, it should at least give you a discount on beer, but no . . . you get a stupid shirt I woundl't give away and a card that will tell you which beers to try so you can imbibe them all. Well fruity tootie toot ... you can try them all, I like what I like and I don't need 200 choices.
Pros: clean
Cons: boring, snot nosed patrons, unfriendly atmosphere
