Cocktail Culture: Screwdriver gets grown-up twist

The bar: English Tap & Beer Garden

The vibe: Nestled between tony shops and fancier destinations like Morton's is a comfy, British pub-inspired enclave of chill and good cheer. You'll notice immediately the eclectic array of patrons raising a pint at the comfortably lit outside bar - well-heeled Boca matrons, the after-work crowd, 20-something football hooligan-looking dudes and all others hungry and thirsty for reasonably priced, tasty morsels. They've come to the right place!

Directions, invite a friend, leave your own review

The drink: The provocatively named Whip Me ($7), a naughty, frothy but very grown-up mixture of orange juice and whipped-cream vodka. Simple. Simply delicious.

Other notable libations: Boy, do they ever have a way with fun cocktails at English Tap! There's the fruity Pomegranate Sour ($9), the Mint Patty ($7) which is NOT Girl Scout related, and the Cookie Dough ($7)

Deals: Happy Hour? Ecstatic Hour! From 7 to 9 p.m., you get $4.95 appetizers including the cheese sauce-accompanied Toasted Soft Pretzel, the Crispy Calamari, the notably different spicy chipotle, and the braised mussels, my absolute favorite, and then $6.95 appetizers like the margarita flatbread. Yum. Also? 50 percent off draft beers, wine and select liquors.

Info: English Tap & Beer Garden is in the Shops at Boca Center, 5050 Town Center Circle; (561) 544-8000.
