The Penny Farthing

The wood-paneled room at this tavern is decorated with antique bike wheels; it’s a nod to the name, which refers to an outmoded cousin of the bicycle that, luckily, you won’t have to ride home after drinking several pints. Sixteen taps dispense a range of beers, from local selections like Kelso to England’s Boddingtons ale. A full menu offers bar-food classics like burgers, buffalo wings and steak.
