Independent Bar & Kitchen

With a European comfort food concept, Independent Bar & Kitchen is a monumental addition to the Deep Ellum restaurant scene. The restaurant has a gorgeous front patio for diners and windows that open wide. The dining room has a to-die-for antique mirror and a stunning ceiling of engraved black tiles. There are 20 brass beer taps and 100 bottles of beer to choose from, with local, national and European options. With an emphasis on European bar eats, Independent Bar & Kitchen serves up filling fare like Scotch eggs, bangers and mash and shepherd's pie. The cocktails are solid, brunch is a hit and the full English breakfast is an artery-clogging plate of U.K. pride.
