Stoddard's Fine Food & Ale
Downtown Crossing's comfort foodery...finally

48 Temple Pl, at Washington; Downtown Crossing; 617.426.0048

Americans don't like to be kept waiting, as evidenced by
fast food, and the film Can't Hardly Wait, which was about
Americans. No longer testing that theory/our patience,
Stoddard's Fine Food & Ale, finally opening Thursday.

Located in the historic 142-year-old Stoddard's Fine Cutlery
building, the seemingly-forever delayed gastropub/saloon is
finally rolling out its American comfort fare alongside a
girthy list of beers/ales and pre-Prohibition era cocktails
in a 70-seat exposed brick space decorated with vintage
artifacts, antique five-globe streetlamps, a towering
30-foot carved/columned mahogany bar lined w/ 25 beer taps,
and even a one-chair shoe shine, so Joe Pesci doesn't need
to leave the place to get his shine box, because we know
what kind of trouble that leads to! Entrees include a
calvados-glazed/apple butter-sauced mushroom stuffed quail
served w/ quail egg sausage and chestnut bread pudding;
smoked ham grits and chanterelle mushrooms with a grilled
Berkshire pork tenderloin; and a mousse-stuffed boneless
rabbit wrapped in prosciutto w/ stewed prunes, whose state
is understandable, considering they weren't even asked to be
wrapped in prosciutto. Drinkswise, the 80+ beer/cask ale
list includes obscure US-brews like Oskar Blues' Ten Fidy
American Imperial Stout, Boulder Mojo Risin' Double IPA, and
Radeberger Pilsner; they've also got cocktails from Jerry
Thomas' 1868 book How to Mix Drinks, like the Last Word
(Tanqueray 10 gin, Luxardo Maraschino, Green Chartreuse, and
lime), and The Deal Breaker, which involves Wild Turkey 101,
Campari, Grand Marnier, and Amaro Montenegro, and a weird
fascination with its mother.

For small eats to accompany your beverage, there're deviled
eggs, marinated olives, and a pot of pickles to go with aged
Gouda and cask ale pudding; and, though not yet open, the
downstairs will be a speakeasy for member's only -- because
the only person who hates waiting more than an American, is
an American member.

While the bar opens Thursday, the restaurant's still a week
or so off. Until then, work your appetite into a frenzy with
a sneak peek of the menu at StoddardsFoodAndAle.com
