Taking a break from my current taco truck and diner breakfast kick, I recently took things in a different direction and had a hip dinner with friends at Republic Gastropub, 5830 N. Classen Boulevard, in Classen Curve.
I was looking forward to the visit because, to my post-stroke knowledge, I have never been to a “gastropub” before, and the locally-famed Republic seemed like a good way to break me in.
