Natty Greene's worth the visit
Last night, I went to Natty Greene's for the first time. The place was packed with both brew pub and restaurant patrons - pretty impressive for a Wednesday night.
The Natty Greene, their pale ale, is a smooth drink. The food is well above average measured against any typical brew pub, which this is not.
I was there with good friend Jay, who is chairman of Downtown Greensboro. That organization has done a great job promoting the redevelopment of downtown. What is most impressive is that they have worked with local investors to accomplish this face lift of a downtown that used to resemble a ghost town after 6pm.
