The Mule in OKC offers cold beer and “hot melts” with many quirky, gooey variations of sandwiches, or “sandies” as they’re called on the menu. Choices include the Croque Madame with sourdough bread, Black Forest ham, gruyere, Dijon mustard, gravy and a sunny side up egg. Other favorites include the Grand Lake Monte Cristo (with white bread, peanut butter, dark chocolate, caramel ice cream and raspberry preserves) and the Fancy Pants (with nine-grain wheat bread, roasted chicken, brie, gruyere, caramelized onion, pear and basil pesto). A non-sandwich option is Okie Poutine, a starter of fries, white gravy and Watonga cheese curds; the Big Ass Poutine is $1 more. 1630 N. Blackwelder Ave., Oklahoma City; 405-601-1400; themuleokc.com
