| - Having spent the night before at a downtown hotel after a concert, we were looking for a place for breakfast. Okay, maybe not *breakfast* exactly - we'd closed down a pub at 0200 and were calling the desk at 0300 to verify checkout time, but I digress.
So around noon on a Sunday we stopped in at Coach's. I love its feel of a local joint that may have been around for 50 years. The service was terrific from the hostess, the waitress, generally everyone we observed.
For a small sports bar which has certainly not been around for 50 years, the food is phenomenal! I have a weak spot for lobster bisque, and theirs is outstanding. Good and thick with the usual small chunks, as well as what had to be an intact seventeen pound slab.
Fish tacos - the young lady ordered these. I had one many hours later, and it was cold, but it was delicious.
In what universe would you expect to find "Hatch Chile Mac & Cheese" in a sports bar??? Very filling and so, so tasty. I took about half of it home and yes, it's good cold, too.
Bloody Marys were perfect. Heinekens were frosty.
Note to self: Add Coach's to list of favorite downtown establishments!
