Located in a "retro" brick building on the outskirts of Spring Lake, Old Boys’ plays it safe with a multitude of light beers. There were 7 beers on tap when I visited; three were lagers (a Low Carb offering, Dortmunder, and Kolsch), one was a wheat beer, and the collection was rounded out with a red ale, a brown ale, and a stout. The stout was pretty good but the other beers were average to below-average offerings, watered-down for the general public. Decent food (I had a barbeque pizza). Pricey; pints are $3.50 and even the hamburgers start at $8.99. Average ambiance; the walls of the restaurant are covered with pictures of employees’ and patrons’ dogs. They also sell pint glasses, t-shirts, and other memorabilia as well as packaged snack foods.
