Oskar Blues Grill & Brew

The original Oskar Blues, open since 1997: a Cajun-leaning kitchen, the beers that launched the craft-can movement, and live music most weeks.

The restaurant that put Lyons on the map twice: first as a Cajun kitchen on Main Street in 1997, then in 2002 as the first American craft brewery to put its beer in cans, a decision that changed the industry. Downstairs is the grill and the taps; upstairs is the room where the Tuesday bluegrass pick and the Sunday serenade happen. Music most weeks and no cover for the regulars.
