From the outside, Wert’s Cafe looks like a stucco-covered block plopped down in the middle of a parking lot. This less-than-promising exterior only makes the charm hidden inside more of a welcome surprise. Walk through the doors and you enter a country ski lodge, with wood-covered walls and small tables and booths. It’s almost always crowded, but don’t let that deter you, since you’ll be seated in no time. And the hordes are all there for good reasons. In addition to typical pub fare, Wert’s also serves up plenty of appetizers, including unique creations like sweet potato fries, pretzerella sticks (pretzel-covered mozzarella sticks) and an ungodly mound of stringy onion “rings.” The waitstaff is friendly and doesn’t mind special requests or split bills. (Open daily 11a-10p.)
