The Liberty is my go-to place when I'm not quite sure where I want to go. It's right down the road from my house and the beer offering is typically quite good. I like the fact that they encourage craft beer newbies to try a new beer while there.  \n\nThe bar area is decorated with a lot of metal advertising signs for beer and cigarettes.  I like the touch--not quite Cracker Barrel, not quite gas station-themed bar.  The wait staff is hit and miss.  I've had several bartenders that I really enjoyed, but most of the servers seem to be too bored or too cool to care about the customers.  Listen, I'm sorry that the cute guy in your EN100 class likes your sorority sister more than you, but don't bring that stuff to work.  But I digress...\n\nThe quality of food has been consistent each time that I have eaten at The Liberty.  I have yet to try one of their entrees because their small plates always look appetizing and I like eating many small things more than one big thing.  I'm a big fan of the duck confit over arugula and crispy green beans.  You can't beat it for $9.  The menu does rotate, so I was disappointed to see the duck rillette (named Pot o' duck) removed from the menu temporarily.  Try the homemade pickles and the pork belly sliders.  You won't be disappointed.  \n\nWith improved wait staff I'd give The Liberty 4 stars.
