Located in the ever evolving Fairmount neighborhood this Bar and grill is sure to please. Between the 12-tap system and growing beer and wine lists, and the inventive pub grub, with a burger menu and a selection of burritos you won’t go hungry or thirsty at this watering hole. The Urban Saloon provides a fun and comfortable environment for any kind of day. Whether it’s a football game, happy hour, or brunch. Urban Saloon will provide an environment that anyone will enjoy!A new addition to the growing Art Museum area restaurant scene, Urban Saloon has an open and airy dining room with exposed brick that is warm and inviting. Frank Sinatra liked to say he was a “saloon singer.” The word “saloon” also makes me think of shootouts in black-and-white westerns. The good guy strolls into a bar where the bad guy is already waiting. They have words, leave through swinging doors and draw their guns.Urban Saloon is a large space with high-ceilings and a long wood bar. A blackboard lists the brews on tap as well what’s available in bottles. The original brick walls are intact, giving the room a warm feel. Tables are covered with brown paper and flimsy paper napkins. Several flat screen televisions dot the space and there’s a new-age jukebox that intrigued Edward. You could list to Billy Joel or Janis Joplin. The bill of fare is simple and straight forward. There are salads, appetizers, burgers, burritos, sandwiches and desserts.
