Penny Lane Pub & Grill, San Marcos. Rated ★★★★☆
Great food — I especially like the Chicken Pot Pie, or the fish and chips. Fine beers, though I usually just have a Guinness. A bit too well-lit, though that actually lends itself to getting some studying done while you sip your pint.
After the previous owner passed it on, they eased up on the Beatles paraphernalia, which is probably a good thing.
