Beer-Battered Fish ’n Chips
Classic fish ’n chips will never go out of style. The crunchy coating on the fish and the crisp fries make for a textural and taste treat. At the Publik Draft House, the special batter for the fish incorporates one of the bar’s signature draft beers—Sweetwater 420. Accompanied by a tall frosty glass of the same, it’s an irresistible combo.
