Claim a spot along the oak bar at this classy joint, which is outfitted with vintage wallpaper and the pages of an old-timey etiquette text. Sample one of the pre-Prohibition quaffs and share a few appetizers. The spot takes its name from the HMS Beagle, Charles Darwin’s ship. The “Charles” and “Emma” printed on the bathroom doors are nods to the naturalist and his novelist wife; here’s hoping you and your date will one day achieve such power-couple status.
