Cobbers Pub

Vibe: Unless you already knew that cobber is an Australian word for pal or buddy, then the one word that could sum up the Cobbers Pub experience would be "neighborhoody." OK, maybe that's not actually a word, but there aren't many other ways to adequately capture the charm of this Mount Vernon hole-in-the-wall. It's not nearly big enough to satisfy would-be clubbers, nor is it boisterous or neon enough to compete with the flashy sports bars that have the space, and the money, to put a flat-screen in every booth.
