Out here we have a number of brewpubs in towns close to trailheads where the beer and the steak (or at least a nice juicy burger) are available. I don't dare do the beer if I'm driving home, though--one beer after a full day or more hiking in the fresh air pretty much knocks me out!

Wherever I eat, it has to have a deck or patio so my hiking buddy Hysson (in my avatar) can be with me.
