Like KU basketball, love for Free State is nearly universal in Lawrence. The in-house brews are among the best in the Midwest, with six or so $3 pint offerings ranging from its Wheat State Golden to Oatmeal Stout. Likewise Free State's food is choice and inexpensive. The menu is loaded with a dozen-plus town favorites (Black Bean Quesadillas, Basil Ciabatta, Garden Burger, etc), as well as two or more daily specials. The environment is sharp but casual, busy but friendly.
At 10 p.m., the kitchen closes and cold sandwiches, sides and salads are available.

Free State is a standby. Everything on the regular menu is at best a classic and at worst a decent meal. And when you've tried everything on the menu at least twice, the specials are always something to look forward to. Then there's the beer. Mmmm, beer.
