In Short
Consider this a cozy hangout for both students of literature and students of drinking. Stained glass, a series of Middle East-inspired lanterns and tapestry rugs on the ceiling give thelong, narrow room the look of an eccentric professor's study. It's the niceties that give Chaucer's a quietly loyal fan base: a menu of eclectic fare for vegetarians and carnivores, a jukebox stocked with timeless selections that's free weeknights and friendly service.

We had an early dinner at Chaucer's and it was great - the restaurant was not too crowded. The interior was very nice, the service was good, and the food was excellent.

Chaucers WAS our favorite neighborhood bar...until they closed it down and replaced it with some stupid yuppie bar/restaurant. Chaucers had the best burgers and an awesome staff. Never had a bad experience there. It was a great place to go by yourself, with one other person, or even with a whole group of people!

I loved this place! Sadly - it is now closed. Went there last night and the door was locked and several neighborhood people walking by said it closed three weeks ago. R.I.P. Chaucer's.
